The challenge
Saturday viewings often face cancellations because properties are frequently taken off the market on Fridays when the holding deposit it paid. Due to her limited availability, she chose to pre-select potential options before our scheduled viewings. However, on the day of the viewings, we discovered that two of the most promising choices had already received holding deposits from other prospective tenants. In response, we promptly contacted the relevant agents to arrange access to two new off-market properties.
Results and outcomes
Out of the two off-market options, we made an offer which was accepted for one of them on the same day.
The key to success
Success in property finding relies on always finding a solution, maintaining composure, and taking swift action. Adaptability and a keen eye for opportunities are also essential qualities to embrace.

A Rental case study in Church Road, Richmond
A family of five from Charlotte, North Carolina, contacted us with an exciting mission: to completely transform their lives by moving to London, along with their adorable dog. With just three months to plan this monumental relocation and a pending school confirmation from The American International School TASIS for their three children, every moment mattered. They had heard glowing things about Richmond, Twickenham, and Chiswick—lush, family-friendly areas known for their charm and sense of community. However, they weren’t familiar enough with these neighbourhoods to make such an important decision confidently, especially while managing the complexities of an international move. Navigating the London property market from thousands of miles away felt overwhelming, so they turned to us for guidance.
