Michael Greet

Michael began his career with Bidwells in Cambridge, managing mixed rural estates for private, corporate and institutional clients. Since returning to Cornwall, he has specialised in helping clients maximise the performance of complex portfolios, balancing income, capital growth, stewardship and environmental objectives.

Michael has extensive experience advising charities, dioceses and other ecclesiastical bodies and sits on Savills’ National Charity and Institutions Group. He leads Savills’ national diocesan network and oversees the management of the Diocese of Truro and Diocese of Exeter glebe estates, together with the Diocese of Truro’s clergy residential portfolio. His work includes estate reviews, development promotion, acquisitions and disposals, overage and covenant negotiations, strategic housing reviews, refurbishment projects, governance and committee reporting, and advice on ecclesiastical and charity property law.

Alongside day-to-day estate management, Michael advises clients on unlocking value through development, diversification, natural capital and net zero opportunities, coordinating input from planning, development, valuation and other specialist teams.

Michael holds an MSc with Distinction in Rural Estate Management from the Royal Agricultural College, Cirencester, following a BSc (Hons) in Geography from the University of Bristol. He grew up on a dairy farm in Cornwall and retains a close practical connection with farming and rural business.
