The Brief

Hard working and time poor!

Our clients had lived in the area for some time and knew it well. They are both working professionals and they were struggling to keep in contact with the agents, leading to them missing out on houses. They were looking for either a plot to build their dream family home or find a period house, which they could substantially improve. With both sons at Berkhamsted Boys school, they wanted to be no more than 15 mins away.

How we helped

Strength in negotiations

We were able to provide our clients with access to off market houses in the search area.

We carried out a substantial amount of ground work for our clients, separating the wheat from the chaff, saving our clients precious time. Utilising an agency relationship built over many years, we found a plot within 10 mins of the school in a sought after village, which was off market and not available to the wider buyer market. We acted quickly and negotiated hard on behalf of our client securing the plot for £200,000 below the guide. Once under offer, we guided what turned out to be a complicated purchase through to exchange.

Our clients' say

"Working with Eddie was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. He has a wonderful manner about him, but he combines a relaxed and thoughtful approach with incredible professionalism and a singular focus on achieving the best results for his clients. He was able to fulfil our very challenging brief through dedication and focus to the search, using his exceptional knowledge of the local market and all the key organisations operating in the area. Throughout the process, he was communicative, clear and focussed and always listens intently to his clients to ensure his efforts are well-directed. Having eventually found our perfect property off market, Eddie could probably have moved on to the next job. Instead he made himself an integral part of the pre-exchange process, and it is only thanks to his diplomacy, organisation and determination that we were able to navigate a complex process through to successful exchange. We cannot recommend Eddie highly enough."

Eddie says

"It was wonderful to buy a plot for our clients in a very popular village. Good plots in this area are like hens teeth! It is a superb location with great countryside views. I am extremely excited to see their vision come to reality and look forward to visiting their family home once it is finished. "
