Spear’s Review

‘Impartial advice is at our core,’ said Marcus Bradbury-Ross of the service offered by CBRE’s private office, which he helped to establish in 2020 and where he is an executive director.

‘Our clients are legacy clients, spanning generations. When I first started work in 1999, a former colleague advised me to treat all your clients as you would your favourite old aunt: protect them, care for them and guide them, to ensure they make the correct decisions.’ 

CBRE’s private office was formed to assist its HNW private clients with all property requirements, ensuring that they receive tailored solutions. This comprises a full discipline of residential skill sets, working across the global business.

‘We are global, our clients are global, and so our team works globally,’ Bradbury-Ross said.

Adviser Profile

Marcus (MBR to his friends) began his career with Knight Frank as a graduate in their valuations team. Five years post-qualified, he moved to Cushman’s, where he led a team that specialised in properties over £10 million. In 2010, MBR pivoted from ‘gamekeeper to poacher’ as a Savills Prime Purchase buyer’s agent. He then co-founded The London Resolution in 2014. 

MBR established The Private Office at CBRE in 2020 with Charles Lloyd, where they provide a single point of contact for global clients from all sectors and regions. ‘With 115,000 people, we are the world’s largest boutique,’ he says. 

MBR has been described as fair, discreet and tenacious, and brings qualified professional rigour to the world of residential property.
