About us

Long-term partners in wealth stewardship

As a family-run firm working with multi-generational clients, we understand that wealth is about more than numbers. It is about legacy, stability, and securing the future for those who matter most to you.
Our story

We provide unbiased, expert guidance for family offices and high-net-worth individuals navigating the UK property sector. Our approach is built on trust, deep industry knowledge, and a commitment to preserving and growing our clients' wealth for generations to come.

A family firm, built on operating, not just owning

Maritime Capital was founded in 2014 by Toby Hunter and his son Max. Having run and owned operational businesses across sectors from leisure and hospitality to pharmaceuticals, we bring a rare ability to operate both small and large entities, and to treat property as the working asset it is.

Over 35 years and more than £1.25bn of transactions, we have gained prime knowledge, priceless connections and a stellar reputation in our market. We specialise in revitalising and transforming properties, creating unique and desirable assets on our clients' behalf.

Above all, we offer a bespoke service for those who would rather not handle the daily tasks of asset management, but do want to remain firmly in control. We work hand in hand with you, your team and your family, passing on a skillset curated over decades in the sector.

How we work

Every relationship starts with a conversation, not a contract

A considered, three-step start, so both sides know exactly how we would work together.

01

Introductory meeting

Every relationship begins with a face-to-face conversation with our senior team, to understand exactly what you and your family need. It is as much an exploratory discussion for you as for us, a chance to set out your wider requirements and for both sides to decide whether we are the right wealth guardian for you.

02

Asset review

Our clients tend to fall into two camps, and we see the brief from both sides. If you already hold property, we take the time to fully analyse your portfolio and get to grips with it. If you are looking to invest, we source live market examples matched to your requirements and talk you through why each would make a sound investment.

03

Set-up

When everyone is ready to proceed, all it takes is a contract. From there we begin the day-to-day management of your assets, keeping you informed at every stage and firmly in control throughout.

What we are

At heart, we are wealth guardians: a family‑run boutique that looks after and grows the UK property wealth of a select group of families, through personal, long‑standing partnerships that keep you firmly in control.
