The British Property Federation is one of the country’s most influential and high profile lobby groups. Representing the property industry – including commercial and residential property owners, investors, developers and their advisers – the BPF works to influence legislation and raise the industry’s profile across all areas of business, politics and the media. We aim to create the conditions in which the property industry can grow and thrive, for the benefit of our members and of the economy as a whole. We do this by engaging with the government and other bodies whose decisions affect the property industry, on things like finance, tax, localism, planning, sustainability and housing policy, to make sure that the industry’s needs and views are taken into account.
