A property firm that was established in Birmingham in 1977 has become a limited liability partnership.

DBK, which has its headquarters office at 321 Bradford Street, is working on a number of high-profile projects with clients such as University Partnerships Programme, St. Modwen, Amazon and Stoford.

Tim Downing, managing director at DBK, said: “We see the LLP transition as a modern structure to drive our business forward, uniting our various offices and services.

‘‘This move is consistent with activity that we have seen at several like-minded consultants in the industry, and I firmly believe it will both enhance the DBK brand and reinforce our already outstanding team spirit.

“We have also secured investment from the RCapital Growth Fund, which will enable us to make the most of the opportunities that will undoubtedly present themselves as we move out of the economic downturn.”
