Our international clients, long-term renters in Notting Hill, were ready to buy. Owning large lateral homes in the US and Australia, they found London’s vertical layouts challenging and struggled to find the sense of space they were used to.

Having viewed more than 60 properties during their rental search, they knew they needed guidance to truly walk the journey with them.

They hoped to avoid major refurbishment, wanted a lift and air conditioning, and needed flexible accommodation for their son starting university, ideally with a separate entrance. Their desire for lateral space, however, pushed them into a higher price bracket and more space than they needed.

Through our search process we helped challenge their thinking on location and layout, helping them understand how they might use the property now and in the future.

We also educated them about the key differences between US and UK real estate, expertly guiding them through every twist and turn.

We finally found them an off-market blend of what they had been looking and carefully managed to negotiate a 12.8% discount, securing an exceptional outcome that truly reflected their journey.
