Independent support when estate decisions matter
AltMarkt exists to help organisations understand their estates before deciding where time, funding and resources should be focused. Our work is grounded in technical evidence, but the purpose is practical: helping clients make informed decisions that support long-term organisational objectives.
Public sector property decisions are rarely straightforward. Building condition, statutory responsibilities, available funding, operational requirements and future estate planning all need to be considered together. AltMarkt provides the independent building consultancy and estate expertise needed to bring those factors into one clear view.
EVIDENCE-LED ADVICE
From technical evidence to informed decisions
Estate decisions should be based on evidence, not assumptions. Understanding the condition of buildings, identifying estate risk, reviewing statutory responsibilities and evaluating investment priorities all require technical expertise.
Our experience as chartered building surveyors provides the insight needed to understand how buildings perform, where risks exist and how estates can be improved. We combine that technical understanding with strategic estate planning, helping clients move from evidence and analysis towards practical decisions and successful delivery.
HOW WE WORK
An extension of your team
Many organisations do not need another consultant producing reports that sit on a shelf. They need practical support that helps move decisions and projects forward.
AltMarkt works as an extension of client teams, providing independent advice while remaining closely aligned to operational realities, governance requirements and organisational objectives. We recognise that estate decisions rarely exist in isolation. Building condition, funding, sustainability, operational resilience and service delivery are connected.
This collaborative approach allows us to support organisations from the earliest stages of estate planning and capital investment planning through to project completion and contract administration.
WHO WE SUPPORT
Supporting education, healthcare and public sector estates
Our work spans schools and academies, multi-academy trusts, NHS and healthcare organisations, local authorities, civic estates and wider public sector property portfolios.
While every sector faces different pressures, the underlying principles remain consistent: understand the estate, identify risk, prioritise investment and ensure property decisions support organisational goals.

Aligning property decisions with wider organisational objectives.
