Our Client

An American Buyer.

The Challenge

Our American client had been searching for a property for two years. She had offered on a number of properties but had never managed to get any of them over the line. She was looking for a three bedroom flat or house with lots of living space, access to a small outside area, separate space for her teenage son, easy access to her office in Mayfair and her son’s school in Fitzrovia, and within close proximity of a tube station and culinary amenities, all in a ‘villagey’ location. Finding a property which meets a set of such specific criteria in such a wide area is incredibly time consuming and takes incredible tenacity to make sure you don’t miss it when it becomes available, on or off market.

The Perfect Conclusion

Our dedicated and tenacious approach meant that we were able to immediately set about scouring the whole of the London market for the perfect property. Our understanding of areas and prices across the whole of London meant that we were able to immediately focus on specific areas which we knew would give her the size of property she needed with all the local amenities she desired, all for the budget of circa £1.5m. Having been looking for two years, she bought the first of a shortlist of five properties that we showed her in an area she had never previously considered.

Thank you so much for helping us clarify exactly what it was we were looking for in a property. In addition, for searching out this beautiful house for us, working with you guys at Black Brick, particularly you Tom, has made this search for a new home such a pleasure, and just as importantly, great fun for us. Thank you also for introducing us to all of the brilliant people who have been guiding us and organising so much behind the scenes leading us through the complicated buying process so calmly getting us to this point. We’re so grateful to everyone involved who has been professional but very approachable. We’ve both been so impressed with the meticulous and painstaking work of each person in their own area of expertise. Everyone at each stage of the process has been remarkable. Every step has been smooth, efficient, and seemingly stress free (for us!).
