Government Property Function

The Government Property Function manages the biggest, most diverse property estate in the country. It operates across departments, delivery organisations and agencies, on an estate comprising more than 140,000 properties with a combined value of more than £180bn.

The Profession is a network of over 7,000 members, who lead all property-related activities for the Government. The Government Property Strategy sets out the ambitions for the Function in three main missions: transforming places and services; creating a smaller, better, and greener estate; and delivering with professional excellence and insight.
