About Kirsty ...
I am a Chartered Surveyor by profession, starting in property in 1999 at an independent firm Innes
England in Nottingham. During my career I have worked for blue chip companies including Boots,
CBRE and Hammerson. I have a broad range of property and business experience having
managed multi million commercial and residential property portfolios across the UK and Ireland for
over 20 years. Over the last 6 years I have built my own consultancy business and portfolio of
commercial property investments including retail, office and mixed use properties.
I took a career break in 2014, travelled in Europe and did a lot of self-development education. This
was the beginning of my transition from property professional to property investor. Having achieved
my professional goals I knew that working for someone else exchanging time for money was no
longer what I wanted to do. In 2016 I set up my own property consultancy and began investing in
apartments on a Rent to Rent basis in Nottingham running them as Serviced Accommodation. I
also launched Progressive Property Network, a monthly network meeting in Birmingham and have
built a strong investor network and contact base as a result.
Today I have a twin focus, my commercial property consultancy KD Commercial and building my
own commercial property investment portfolios with my business partners Jamie MacPherson in JK
PropCo for commercial investments and Jon Ballard in Wem Commercial for commercial and
mixed use developments. I have also transferred my pensions to a SIPP investing jointly with other
SIPP investors in commercial property flips.
