Farm Management

At Savills we have built a trusted reputation for selling and buying rural properties and land. Our marketing expertise is extensive, deeply-embedded and national in scope. 

Within Savills rural agency team, we have a group of specialists steeped in the business of buying and selling woodland and forestry. The core of five specialists work alongside rural property experts in our regional offices, delivering a nationwide service. This entails appraising, preparing, marketing and negotiating the purchase or sale of woodland and forestry of all types and sizes.

Our specialist rural agency team has spent many years delivering results for private individuals, farmers, investors and institutions alike, and has become a natural port of call for anyone looking to buy or sell a sporting, residential or agricultural estate.

Our team focuses on the valuation of property assets that make up an estate or farm. These valuations can be for the purpose of loan security, taxation, internal transfers or for dispute resolution, and so need to be accurate, informed and respected.

Our national team of 320 provides a comprehensive estate management service, from ad hoc advice to full management. We work closely with owners of all sizes of estates, whether they comprise 50 acres or thousands of acres, helping to efficiently manage their business.

Trees require ongoing management throughout their lifecycle, from planting through to felling. We combine market-leading forestry expertise with independent advice on how to increase timber quality and value, identify new opportunities and maximise returns for our clients.

Working across the UK, our sporting experts provide management advice and guidance on all aspects of shooting, fishing and deer stalking. We deal with every kind of sporting estate, from grouse moors to low ground and wild bird shoots, and from fishing to stalking. In each case we customise our advice and services to the specific needs of landowners, estate employees, professionals and consultants, to maximise the potential of all types of sporting property, in terms of capital, income or total returns.
