About us
- The Crown Estate is a diverse property business with a capital value of £8.6 billion, and a total property value of £8.1 billion. The property we manage is owned by the Crown but is not the private property of the monarch. We are governed by an Act of Parliament and work supportively with government; in Westminster, in Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland and at a local level. In 2012/13 our net surplus (profit) of £252.6 million went to the Treasury for the benefit of the nation.
