Acquisition

We search and vet on your behalf, including unbuilt commissions.

You tell us what you want to live in. We find it, whether or not it is for sale, and tell you what is wrong with each candidate before you see it.

We also broker unbuilt commissions — drawings that were paid for and never went to site. They transfer, with conditions.

How it works

In
practice

Three commitments. They are the same on every instruction, and we put them in writing.

01

Nine hundred houses

We hold a private index of every architect-designed house in the region and who owns it.

02

Twice, always

We view every shortlisted house twice, once in the morning and once at the hour it was designed for.

03

Structural read

A structural engineer walks every house we shortlist, at our cost.

“The document they produced was better than the one the architect gave the original client. It included the things that are wrong with the building.”
