Over the years we had the opportunity to work with fantastic private and corporate clients from all around the world; business owners, media and sport personalities, investors, CEOs, etc. Those clients are recommended to us because of our discreet services, track record and expertise, while maintaining their complete anonymity.

Here are some examples of searches and acquisitions we managed in the UK, France, Monaco, Spain and Portugal and our performances to date.

We are proud to have completed 94% of our search mandates since 2014. This success is the result of our due diligence, thorough process, market expertise, as well as the extend of the markets searches we conduct. 36% of our acquisitions were off-market properties and we have negotiated an average of 12.1% off the asking price to date.
