London property case studies
Princes Gate, South Kensington
A Swiss couple with two young children, aged 4 and 5½, decided to relocate to London to provide their family with the best educational opportunities in the dynamic capital. With their children accepted into prestigious schools—though at different locations—the move was driven by their desire to balance convenience and quality of life. Both parents had deep personal ties to London: the wife had attended boarding school in West London, and the husband had grown up in South Kensington. This familiarity with the area helped shape their search for the perfect family home in one of London’s most desirable neighbourhoods. However, with the peak summer market in full swing, securing a property that met their high standards required expert guidance.

Parsons Green, West London
Our clients, a very busy professional couple—a banker and an M&A lawyer—were looking to move before their daughter started nursery in September. Their current apartment had become too small and lacked sufficient storage. They needed a new home that met specific criteria, including excellent insulation, double glazing, ideally a top-floor location with lifts, greenery views, and a quiet setting away from busy roads due to their noise sensitivity.

Brackenbury Village, West London
Our client, a couple renting a house in West London, discovered too late that their rented home was on the market and an offer had already been accepted from another party. Unsure of how to proceed and without any contacts to assist them, they reached out to us for support throughout the buying process. To ensure they were making the right decision, we arranged a day of viewings for comparable properties in West London. This gave them a comprehensive understanding of the market and helped them make an informed choice.
