Allsop LLP has sold its Recoveries and Receivership team to KR8 Advisory. The transaction transfers Allsop's established and highly regarded receivership team into KR8 Advisory immediately. 

Allsop has a long-established market leading position in the UK property market, including extensive experience in recoveries and receivership work. The acquisition includes both the team and its active case portfolio and will expand KR8’s real estate market presence and expertise.

 

Allsop Senior Partner, Andrew Boyd said:

"We are immensely proud of our Recoveries and Receivership team which has delivered excellent results for our clients over the years. We believe this deal creates new opportunities for those colleagues – in joining a specialist firm with an integrated real estate restructuring model – and also for our clients. On behalf of the Allsop partners, I’d like to thank the team and wish them continued success, while also looking forward to working with them again in the future.

At Allsop we will continue to pursue our strategy of selective growth in complementary business areas, as demonstrated by the recent launch of a dedicated planning offering.  We remain focused on creating, adding and unlocking value for our clients, and committed to providing the very best, partner led advice."

   

Annika Kisby, Managing Director at KR8 Advisory, said:  

"We launched KR8 at the beginning of 2025 with the aim of building a national market leading real estate advisory and restructuring team. We see this acquisition as key to this objective. The Allsop Recoveries and Receivership team has a strong reputation in the market, and we are very excited to welcome them to the business. This acquisition alongside our growing Building and Project Consultancy team enhances our ability to deliver high-quality outcomes for lenders and stakeholders across the full lifecycle of real estate in all sectors."

   

James Liddiment, Managing Director at KR8 Advisory, said: 

"Real estate is a core pillar of KR8 Advisory’s proposition, and this acquisition accelerates our ability to deliver senior-led, practical and commercial advice to the lending market. Our strength lies in combining independent restructuring advice, hands-on real estate expertise and lender-side insight. Clients can access an integrated team able to support them from pre-lend and pre-enforcement advice through to receivership, administration, asset strategy and disposal. The integration of the Allsop Recoveries and Receivership team reflects the changing landscape and the increasing demand for true real estate experts within restructuring and insolvency."

  

The Allsop Recoveries and Receivership team joins KR8 Advisory with immediate effect.
