What we do
The process starts with a small group of like-minded buyers with complementary aspirations and motivations. We'll look at key preferences including budget, location and type of property before we share a curated shortlist of homes.
​
We then take care of everything for the group - setting up the ownership structure, co-ordinating the purchase and scheduling policy and arranging management of your home.
