Relocation

RELOCATION

Not all relocation companies are the same.

Most of our relocation clients come to us by word of mouth, often after a previous move went badly. We are a boutique concierge rather than a volume relocation company: one team, one point of contact, and a habit of saying yes to requests however unusual. Past clients have called us the wedding planner for moving. We take that as a compliment.

Why a boutique

Moving home is stressful anywhere; in London it is also fast and competitive. Large companies and multinationals increasingly move their people through smaller relocation agencies because they are nimbler and more responsive, and because they recognise that every transferee needs a different kind and level of help. We are not held back by layers of structure, so the person you brief is the person who finds your home.

Where we work

Central London above all: Kensington, Chelsea, Marylebone, Mayfair, Belgravia, Notting Hill, Covent Garden. We also cover the villages clients ask for most, including Hampstead and Highgate, Richmond, Barnes and Dulwich. We advise on the right area for your commute, your family, your school run or your morning run in the park.

How we work

We take a proper brief, then search on and off the market until the options tick every box, and a few that were not on the list. We arrange and accompany viewings, negotiate the terms, check the paperwork, and stay involved through to the day you move in. We have been doing this since 2006.

Fees and timing

Our success fee is in the region of three weeks’ rent plus VAT, payable only when you have secured a home. We can start whenever you are ready, including at short notice.

DISCRETION

Trusted by people who cannot afford to be seen house-hunting.

Over the years we have found London homes for internationally known names in music, film, fashion and sport, and have worked alongside their management companies and entertainment groups to do it. Those moves have to happen quietly: viewings arranged outside opening hours, landlords approached without the tenant’s name, terms negotiated through us so that nothing reaches the market or the press. We apply the same discretion to every client, whether or not anyone would recognise them. We do not publish our clients’ names; some are happy to be introduced privately on request.

What clients say

"She simply said, ‘Call them, they will take care of everything,’ and so it happened. From the property search to the green energy bills, the relocation team assisted me throughout the move despite the time difference."

Micheal · St James’s Park · Relocation

“Moving in two weeks, in the middle of August, seemed like our worst nightmare. We visited around a dozen properties, shortlisted three, and 48 hours later we had signed the paperwork.”

Giulio and Bianca · Marylebone · Relocation

“Choosing the right school is fundamental for a family relocating to London. They supported me and my daughter at every step, from explaining state and private schools to touring them with us.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions we are asked

Yes. We relocate individual transferees and families on behalf of employers, and private clients moving to London on their own account. The service is the same; the invoicing arrangements simply follow whoever is paying.

Relocation is primarily a rental service. Clients who decide to buy are handled by our acquisition team, who act only for the buyer.

Good properties in London let within days, so speed depends on how clear the brief is and how quickly you can decide. We have placed clients within a week when required; a few weeks is more typical when the requirements are specific.
Yes. School places often decide the area before the property does, so we start there. We advise on the state, independent and international options near each shortlisted home, introduce specialist education consultants where a place is competitive, and time the move around admissions deadlines.
Whatever makes the move easier: furnishing, utilities, contractors, staff, introductions, and for clients in the public eye, the security and privacy arrangements a move requires. If it is a reasonable request we will find a way.
