Adair Paxton

Founded in 1859 as a partnership of surveyors, Adair Paxton has followed the evolution of the Leeds property market for more than a century and a half. The firm retains that technical foundation in a service offering that combines residential and commercial property work with building management and professional advice.

Homeowners can request a valuation and marketing support when selling, while buyers can explore listings across Yorkshire. The team also works with landlords looking to rent out property and tenants searching for a home, offering lettings management and support with tenant relationships.

Its commercial work covers sales, lettings, acquisitions, investments, and strategic advice. Adair Paxton also manages residential and mixed-use blocks and other properties, and handles lease renewals, rent reviews, and service charges, alongside services for commercial landlords and tenants.

The firm’s surveying background shapes another part of its work: valuations and surveys for different property types and professional purposes. The company describes its inspections and valuations as RICS-regulated services. That technical grounding brings attention to a property’s condition, features, and context as well as its market value.

The company began with surveying professionals and says it retains a director-led approach. Its history in Yorkshire and broad range of services allow clients to handle different needs through one firm, from a sale or rental to managing a portfolio or seeking advice on a commercial property.

The head office is at Jason House on Kerry Hill in Horsforth, Leeds; the contact page also lists an office at 60 Wellington Street in central Leeds. The firm serves Leeds and Yorkshire. Saturday appointments can be arranged in advance, according to the company’s published information.

Adair Paxton may suit owners, buyers, landlords, tenants, and commercial clients looking to bring property services and surveying together with a long-established local firm. The right service—and what it includes—depends on the property and assignment, so an initial conversation helps identify the appropriate team.
