Innovative Approach to Real Estate
FORE Partnership specialises in recycling, repurposing, enhancing, and repositioning existing buildings. They don’t just renovate; they transform these structures into future-facing assets that capture the green premium. Their “retrofit first” strategy is a game-changer — with 80% of the buildings that will exist in 2050 already standing today, the focus is on upgrading what’s already there rather than building anew. This approach not only reduces carbon footprints but also maximizes the value of existing real estate.
Commitment to Net Zero and Sustainability
Achieving net-zero by 2025 is no small feat, but FORE Partnership has made it an industry-leading commitment. Their mission goes beyond just hitting targets; it’s about embedding sustainability into every aspect of their business and portfolio. In a world teetering on the edge of climate catastrophe, they prove that a deep commitment to sustainability and social impact doesn’t come at the expense of investor returns — in fact, the two are inseparable.
Expertise and Network
With over 30 years of experience, FORE Partnership’s team is dynamic and agile, driven by a singular vision: leading real estate into a low carbon future where property is a force for good. Their extensive network spans real estate, the built environment, landlords, occupiers, lenders, banks, local authorities, and social enterprises.
