About Us
Glen & Co Chartered Surveyors was established by David Glen back in 2005. Since then, the firm has experienced just about every possible up and down of the property market - we have seen the mid-noughties boom turn into the financial collapse of 2008; we have been through two Referenda and then along came a global pandemic. And, just when we thought the world was due a period of peace and stability, some wee guy in the east has decided he wants a bigger front garden?
Currently, we are the busiest we have ever been.
In short, we don’t think there’s much we haven’t seen or done.
From developing multi-million pound office buildings to acquiring retail premises to exponentially increase clients’ stores in Scotland to handling Rating Appeals and preparing Valuation Reports we have the breadth of skills and experience to offer the most sage and detailed advice on all commercial property matters.

Clients and Testimonials
We are very proud to have relationships with clients that date back to before the inception of the firm, yet continue to add new clients to our portfolio every year.
This, we think, is due to our straight talking no-nonsene approach to offering sound advice and creativity in deal making.
