Propertymark saw turnover increase by 7.1% to £9.86m last year, while growing its membership by 4.3% to 18,711, the latest figures show.
Looking ahead, the trade body says its priorities are clear: continue to expand our training offer, launch new corporate and company membership categories, and continue shaping the future of the sector through policy, technology, and standards.
“Our strategic investments are not just supporting industry excellence – they’re shaping its future,” said Bill Butler, non-executive chair of the Board at Propertymark. “We are firmly positioned as architects of a more trusted, resilient, and forward-looking property sector.”
Propertymark says that its policy and campaigns team conducted over 325 stakeholder meetings, responded to 37 government consultations, and delivered 30 parliamentary briefings. Our lobbying helped shape key conversations on rental reform, taxation, leasehold reform, planning, economic crime, and energy efficiency.
The group also remained visible across the UK’s political landscape—attending all major party conferences and strengthening relationships with devolved governments in Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland.
Propertymark adds that its public profile reached new heights, with a 111% increase in media hits and 93 billion impressions, while its partnership with Move iQ and Phil Spencer continues to build consumer trust and awareness of Propertymark Protected agents.
Nathan Emerson, CEO, Propertymark, commented: “Through a dynamic mix of television appearances, radio interviews, social media campaigns, and podcasts, we ensured that key industry messages reached the right audiences at the right time. These efforts have helped to elevate Propertymark’s public profile and reinforce the value of membership.”
Propertymark Qualifications continued to grow, with 7,612 exams sat and 1,418 new certifications awarded. Over 800 audits were conducted across the membership to uphold high standards.
We also progressed plans to separate our awarding body from direct delivery, through the launch of Propertymark Learning, offering more targeted support to learners and businesses.
Turnover rose by 7.1% to £9.86m, and it recorded a surplus of £185,000. Propertymark’s cash reserves increased to £7.1m.
Emerson continued: As the property landscape continues to evolve, we remain committed to innovation and long-term sustainability. This year, we expanded our industry partnerships to 30 suppliers, providing members with cutting-edge solutions tailored to their business needs. Revenue generated from these partnerships has been reinvested into expanding our events, enhancing digital resources, and improving member services.
“In a major strategic move, we have invested in eight PropTech start-ups through a collaboration with TDS and Reach UK, ensuring that our members have access to emerging technologies that will shape the future of property transactions. Additionally, preparations are underway to launch new corporate and company membership categories, offering comprehensive support for larger firms and property businesses.
He added: “Our priorities remain clear, enhancing professional development, expanding member services, and driving meaningful policy
change. We will continue to advocate for industry improvements, invest in new resources, and build on the momentum of 2024 to ensure Propertymark members thrive in an evolving marketplace.
“We extend our heartfelt thanks to our members, staff, and partners who have contributed to Propertymark’s success. Your dedication and professionalism drive our mission forward, and we look ahead with confidence to another year of progress, innovation, and growth.”
