20 yeArs’ sUccess in bUYing London property
for clients
THE LONDON RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY MARKET
IS FAST-MOVING AND HIGHLY COMPETITIVE.
OUR PRO-ACTIVE, STREET-WISE APPROACH CAN SAVE
YOU A GREAT DEAL OF TIME AND EFFORT.
WE HAVE ACCESS TO ALL OF LONDON’S AVAILABLE PROPERTIES
AND MANY MORE ‘OFF-MARKET’ AND ‘PRE-MARKET’ OPPORTUNITIES
THROUGH OUR UNRIVALLED NETWORK OF CONNECTIONS.
USING OUR LOCAL PROPERTY KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERIENCE, WE
WILL FIND YOU THE IDEAL PROPERTY - AND CAN USUALLY POSITION
YOU AS THE ‘PREFERRED BIDDER’ FOR IT.
“ We really get to know the client’s needs, we search relentlessly, then strike
swiftly to secure the chosen property, driving a hard bargain in the process.”
Andrew F Reeves, Managing Director - Personal Property Finders
“ We'd been looking for a property without success. Andrew and his team soon found us an ideal
penthouse apartment, took us to the front of the queue and agreed terms. A really great service!”
Personal Property Finders client, 2012
We WILL open doors for you...
PROPERTIES THAT PRECISELY MATCH YOUR NEEDS
APARTMENTS IN YOUR CHOSEN AREA OR LOCATION
TOWN-HOUSES OF YOUR PREFERRED STYLE AND SIZE
‘PRE-MARKET’ PROPERTIES NOT YET RELEASED
‘OFF-MARKET’ HOMES NOT AVAILABLE ELSEWHERE
ANY GIVEN STREET OR GARDEN SQUARE OF YOUR CHOOSING
SOURCING PROPERTIES
MOST BUYERS HAVE BUSY LIVES AND CANNOT DEVOTE ENOUGH TIME
TO PROPERTY HUNTING. IN A MARKET WHERE BUYERS DRAMATICALLY
OUTNUMBER PROPERTIES FOR SALE, SOME SELLING AGENTS ARE
UNABLE TO GIVE ADEQUATE ATTENTION TO ALL WOULD-BE BUYERS.
OUR SEARCH TEAMS ARE CONTINUOUSLY SEEKING AND INSPECTING
PROPERTIES, INCLUDING SOURCING ‘OFF-MARKET’ AND
‘PRE-MARKET’ OPPORTUNITIES, ACTING SWIFTLY AND
DECISIVELY TO SECURE THE RIGHT PROPERTY.

LOCAL KNOWLEDGE
BUYERS OFTEN HAVE LIMITED LOCAL KNOWLEDGE OF THE MOST
SOUGHT-AFTER RESIDENTIAL ‘VILLAGES’ OF CENTRAL LONDON,
SO NEED EXTRA ADVICE AND GUIDANCE WHEN CHOOSING
WHERE TO LIVE, WHAT TO BUY AND HOW MUCH TO PAY!
OUR STAFF HAVE IN-DEPTH KNOWLEDGE OF LIVING
AND BUYING IN CENTRAL LONDON. BY GETTING TO KNOW
THE CLIENTS’ PREFERENCES, WE CAN RECOMMEND LOCATIONS
MOST SUITABLE FOR THEM. WHILST VIEWING PROPERTY,
WE POINT OUT TRANSPORT LINKS, SUITABLE SCHOOLS,
SHOPPING, EATING OUT, LEISURE AND RECREATION.
THOROUGH RESEARCH
SELLING AGENTS ACT FOR AND ARE PAID BY THE SELLERS. THEY
DO NOT ALWAYS PROVIDE SUFFICIENT INFORMATION ABOUT EACH
AVAILABLE PROPERTY. BUYERS NEED HELP WHEN MAKING FURTHER
ENQUIRIES AND BEFORE DECIDING WHICH PROPERTY TO BUY.
WE ACT SOLELY FOR THE BUYER AND THEREFORE PROVIDE UNBIASED
AND WELL-INFORMED ADVICE. WE THOROUGHLY RESEARCH ALL
SHORT-LISTED PROPERTIES, INCLUDING SURROUNDING AREAS AND
LOCAL AMENITIES, THEN REPORT TO THE CLIENT, BEFORE ANY OFFER
TO PURCHASE IS MADE.
ACHIEVING THE BEST PRICE
A PROPERTY CAN BE LOST DUE TO COMPETITION FROM
OTHER BUYERS AND DELAYS IN MAKING AN OFFER. PITCHING
AN OFFER CORRECTLY AND NEGOTIATING AN AGREED PRICE
IS SOMETHING OF AN ‘ART FORM’, AND CAN BE CRUCIAL
TO SECURING THE PROPERTY.
WE ARE ACTIVELY INVOLVED IN THE MARKET EVERY WORKING
DAY, AND CAN PROMOTE YOUR INTEREST IN A PROPERTY BY
RESPONDING QUICKLY. WE ARE EXPERTS IN PRICE NEGOTIATION
AND USUALLY SAVE OUR CLIENTS LARGE SUMS OF MONEY. BY
ASSESSING AND PROVING THE TRUE VALUE OF A PROPERTY, WE CAN
OFTEN AGREE A SUBSTANTIAL REDUCTION IN THE ASKING PRICE.
...& SECuRInG tHE PROPERty FOR yOu
PROGRESSING THE PURCHASE
25% OF PROPERTY PURCHASES AGREED IN THE UK ‘FALL THROUGH’
FOR TECHNICAL REASONS OR UNCERTAINTY, AND THEREFORE DO
NOT PROCEED, OFTEN CAUSING FRUSTRATION AND
DISAPPOINTMENT FOR THE BUYER.
WE MONITOR EVERY PURCHASE CONTINUALLY, AS SOON AS IT HAS
BEEN AGREED. WE WORK DILIGENTLY WITH THE LAWYERS AND OTHER
PROFESSIONALS, USING OUR EXPERIENCE TO RESOLVE ISSUES
AND ENSURE A SUCCESSFUL EXCHANGE OF CONTRACTS.
COMPLETION
THE BUYER IS OFTEN NOT AVAILABLE ON COMPLETION DAY
(OR THEREAFTER) TO CHECK THE PROPERTY, COLLECT KEYS,
TRANSFER UTILITY ACCOUNTS, DEAL WITH SERVICE
COMPANIES, AND MORE.
WE SATISFY OURSELVES THAT THE PROPERTY AND ANY CONTENTS
ARE IN ORDER, DEAL WITH UTILITY ACCOUNTS AND HOLD THE KEYS.
OTHER SERVICES, SUCH AS IMPROVEMENT WORK, FURNISHING AND
PREPARATION OF THE PROPERTY, CAN ALSO BE ARRANGED BY US.
