Frequently Asked Questions
-
Procurement agents distinguish themselves from estate agents by their exclusive retention to represent the best interests of their clients. Our primary goal is to diligently locate and secure properties that impeccably align with our clients’ preferences, all while negotiating the most favorable price available. Conversely, estate or letting agents prioritize the seller’s interests. Both types of agents charge fees for their services. Additionally, we frequently possess exclusive access to a multitude of off-market opportunities, with the majority of our transactions occurring in this realm.

Initially, we initiate a proactive search across the market, leveraging our extensive network of contacts to grant you access to all properties aligning with your specifications, including those exclusive ‘off-market’ opportunities. In a fiercely competitive market, professional guidance proves essential for swift and successful acquisitions.
However, our commitment extends far beyond the initial search. We conduct meticulous due diligence on selected properties, offering impartial advice on pricing and any potential issues impacting your future enjoyment. These findings are comprehensively documented in our due diligence report.
Comprised of regional experts, our teams excel in elevating clients to a ‘preferred buyer status’ and adeptly negotiate the most advantageous terms on their behalf. In negotiations, we employ creativity and flexibility, understanding that the highest offer doesn’t always secure the deal. Subsequently, we guide the purchase process through to contract exchange, adeptly handling any arising issues and collaborating closely with your legal team and other advisors.
Post-contract exchange, we provide a thorough completion and handover service, including a final property inspection on the morning of completion to ensure adherence to agreed-upon conditions before releasing the final funds.
