Our Team

Duncan Scorey

Founder and Managing Director

Duncan Scorey founded Kea Real Estate with a transformative vision: that excellence in commercial real estate requires both a multi-disciplinary approach and pragmatic, occupier-led technology integration. As Managing Director, he leads Kea's dual business model—strategic advisory services and pre-seed/angel investments—with a focus on making the commercial property sector more productive, sustainable, and inclusive.

With nearly two decades of experience across the asset and wealth management industry, Duncan brings exceptional insight into real estate and private equity fund investments spanning Europe, North America, and Asia. His global perspective and deep industry knowledge enable him to identify emerging proptech opportunities while delivering high-impact strategic advice to property operators and owners.

Duncan's academic credentials reflect his commitment to a multidisciplinary approach. He holds an MSt in Interdisciplinary Design in the Built Environment from the University of Cambridge, an MBA from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and a BEng in Electrical Engineering from Imperial College. This unique educational background combines technical expertise, business acumen, and built environment specialization—a powerful foundation for reimagining the future of commercial real estate.

As both a Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) and Chartered Surveyor (MRICS), Duncan bridges the financial and physical aspects of real estate, positioning him uniquely to evaluate investment opportunities and advise on operational improvements that deliver measurable results.

Beyond his commercial endeavours, Duncan serves as a pro bono strategic adviser to UK charities through Pilotlight. He currently supports St Marys, a North London charity providing skills and confidence-building activities for young people from disadvantaged backgrounds—work that reflects Kea's broader commitment to community impact.
