Glinsman Weller was formed in 2008 by Paul Glinsman and Richard Weller who were always destined to work together. Both commenced their careers in the Central London office market in the late 1970’s and pursued independent although often intersecting paths at a variety of firms until finally taking the plunge and setting up the practice they and their clients wanted to see.
From the outset, both Directors were fully engaged in all projects and no client ever runs the risk of being farmed out to inexperienced, junior staff as can often be the case elsewhere. Our watch word is quality over quantity and we do not subscribe to the culture of taking on projects just to increase our standing in the league tables that encourage the opposite approach.
Paul retired as a full time Director at the end of 2023 to become a Consultant whilst Richard remains as committed as ever to providing a top class service to clients both old and new.
Experienced Office Agency and Lease Advisory specialist dealing with acquisitions, disposals, rent reviews and lease renewals/restructuring wherever clients want him. Recent undertakings range from achieving 100% occupancy in multi-let buildings in Mayfair, Marylebone and Holborn, freehold and long leasehold sales across Central London, acquisitions in locations as diverse as Battersea, Fitzrovia, Belgravia, Bow and Glasgow and settlement of rent reviews for tenants at well below the level quoted by the landlords producing savings of up to £2.7m plus.
Recent and regular clients include Dorrington, O2 Daisy, Liberal Democrats, Ticketmaster, Policy Exchange, Live Nation, MONTE Global, Blood Cancer UK, Total Media, Boutique Workplace Co, DCC Pension Fund, Downing LLP, Delph Group, Think Publishing and Lincoln International.
In early 2024, Richard was appointed as a Consultant to Tuckerman, the well known niche agency based in Victoria, to enhance their capabilities in the occupier market.
Richard is an active participant in live theatre as performer and director, spent many happy years following KISS around the world and after over 50 years watching Crystal Palace is finding the last few months rather bewildering.
