Related Argent is an unrivalled UK property business and urban regeneration specialist.

We are a complete developer-owner-operator working across a range of property sectors including residential, workspace, education, shopping, hospitality and leisure. Our work goes beyond bricks and mortar development: we specialise in the services, facilities and experiences that are so important to urban life – art, culture, events, schools, skills and training programmes, renewable energy networks and much more.

Our c.£13bn UK portfolio includes major regeneration schemes at Brent Cross and Tottenham Hale and a build-to-rent (BtR) scheme at King’s Cross. In 2024, we became the developer and asset manager of the King’s Cross estate and the St Pancras Hospital site.

Our company brings together the expertise and track record of Argent – the developer behind some of Britain’s most successful mixed-use places, and Related – one of the most innovative and prolific real estate companies in the US. Our combined experience includes Brindleyplace in Birmingham, Hudson Yards and Deutsche Bank Center in New York, The Square in West Palm Beach, Florida, and The Grand LA in Los Angeles.
