Ascot Group Marks 36 Years in Business with £500M+ in UK Property Deals

This month, Ascot Group proudly celebrates 36 years in business. Originally founded in August 1988 under the name Ascot Properties, the company began with the vision of a determined 19-year-old entrepreneur and the support of a grant from The Prince’s Trust.

Over the past three and a half decades, Ascot Group has grown from a local start-up into a multi-company investment and development group. Since inception, we’ve been involved in over half a billion pounds worth of land and property transactions spanning our home city of Liverpool and stretching across the UK.

Our experience covers everything from direct land acquisitions to complex commercial developments and corporate restructuring deals. While our scope has expanded, our core principles remain the same: move fast, think long-term, and deliver value with integrity.

One of our most notable recent projects involved acquiring a part-built, multi-million-pound mixed-use development in Liverpool city centre from a Hong Kong-based investment consortium. The scheme, which included student accommodation, retail space, and car parking, was successfully completed and sold by Ascot Group. A testament to our ability to unlock difficult or stalled sites.

We are always looking for new opportunities, and continue to specialise in:

• Freehold land and buildings (with or without planning)

• Distressed assets or bank debts secured on property

• Property companies in administration

• Private sales requiring speed and discretion
