Douglas House

Our network is unrivalled – we gained access to this highly desirable apartment located on Mount Street before anyone else.

When it comes buying property, our advice is invaluable. We prevented our clients making a costly mistake and buying a property they had viewed before engaging us.

We know how to get our clients what they want. We negotiated directly the developer to agree to some significant changes to this stunning penthouse as part of the purchase price, allowing for the lift to go to both floors and for the bathrooms to be fitted with the latest Japanese Toto toilets.

We can spot a deal. Since acquiring the flat for our client, we estimate that it is now worth in excess of £7 million, a phenomenal return in a short space of time.

We have the contacts and expertise to access the best properties that are not available on the open market, and secure favourable agreements even against the competition. We successfully agreed the purchase of this substantial 4,500 sq. ft. detached family villa-style house, off-market.

We first showed our client a very special estate in Surrey in August 2019. He liked it very much so we arranged for him to try it out and spend the weekend there.

We have known our American clients for a number of years, having acted for them twice previously on the acquisition and then sale of a beautiful apartment in Notting Hill.

Our clients wanted a minimum of two bedrooms and two bathrooms and had a strong preference for acquiring an apartment which was ready to use immediately and therefore in excellent condition.

We have extensive experience analysing new developments and can ensure that our clients only ever buy the best possible units. One of just 6 penthouse units, we sourced the best of the last remaining two and negotiated a significant discount from the asking price.

We were delighted to finalise the purchase of such an attractive London property, for below the asking price.

Relying on web portals to find your perfect home is risky. In a market that is short on supply and highly competitive, good contacts and reputation mean we get our clients access to the inaccessible.

We had first assisted our clients by finding them a rental property when they moved to London from Brussels.

We were engaged by a US based family who were looking to find a lateral 3-4 bedroom apartment in Marylebone as a London base for their many trips here.

The family had owned property in London for many years and now wanted to buy a house for their son in North London with a maximum budget of £7.5m.

We negotiated strongly, taking advantage of the current lack of overseas buyers in London and achieved an impressive 12% discount from the asking price for a rare asset.

Early access to best in class is crucial. In a highly competitive market, retaining Black Brick meant our client was able to secure their perfect property without entering into a competitive bidding situation.

We know how to hold a deal together. This deal not only demonstrates our ability to construct and execute very complicated transactions in order to allow our clients to achieve the outcomes they need, but also our ability to renegotiate and hold the a transaction together during a global pandemic.

We provided our client with sales comparables that are not available in the public domain and as a result, we negotiated a 14% discount from the asking price for a rare and impressive apartment on one the best streets in London.

We have the expertise to source and negotiate excellent discounts in the best buildings for our clients.

With more and more sellers opting to sell ‘off market’ we have the network to make sure our clients have access to the very best opportunities
