Our Work

Our Clients

We value each of our clients, take pride in being part of their team, and are dedicated to maximising the performance of their assets.

A trusted advisor displays the following qualities: Pragmatism. Commerciality. Attention to Detail. Challenge. Partnership, and, crucially, Humour.

 

Having worked with Claire and Glenn since they set up CORE they epitomise, and deliver, all these critical qualities’ day-in-and-day-out. We are proud to be working in partnership with the team at CORE, to help us deliver for our customers.

 

Stuart Davies - Prologis

Having worked with Glenn, Claire and the team at CORE since their inception on multiple projects throughout the country, we know from first hand experience that they consistently strive to go above and beyond to deliver an excellent service. They combine real expertise with commercial acumen and genuine attention to detail.

 

You could not ask for a firm with greater integrity always acting in the client’s absolute best interests.  My only fear is that everyone else realises this too!

 

James Horgan - Petit Papillon 

Claire and the team at CORE have supported us with our dilapidations work for over 10 years now. They understand our principles of fairness and integrity, and always prepare and negotiate claims with our occupiers with that benchmark in mind.
