Is there a fee for using your property introduction service?

There is no sourcing fee charged to buyers for our property search service. Unlike buyers agents, who typically charge the client 1–1.50% of the purchase price, we are compensated by the seller side — as is standard across our markets.

Start with clarity & confidence

Many buyers assume the process starts with finding a property. In practice, some of the most useful questions come up before viewings begin:
how lenders treat non-residents, how you might own the property, and who you will need around you.

Understand Your Budget

Lenders treat non-resident buyers differently depending on where they are tax resident. Before you start viewing, you can speak to a mortgage adviser or an international private bank who can talk you through what may be available. That gives you a clearer view of your budget, and can save you time with lenders who are likely to decline.

Plan Your Ownership

Ownership structure, tax and financing can shape the whole purchase, from how you hold the property to what it costs to own. Looking at these questions early, with a tax adviser and a notary, can help you avoid changes and delays later, and means you start viewing with a clearer plan.

Connect With the Right Professionals

From planning to completion, our network includes English-speaking professionals who work with non-resident buyers: agents, developers, lenders, lawyers, notaries, accountants, surveyors and currency specialists.

Off-Market Properties

Some of the finest properties
never reach the market

From Courchevel and Val d’Isère to Saint-Tropez and Ibiza and beyond, premium chalets, villas and estates sometimes change hands quietly, without appearing online. For buyers at this level, discretion is often as important as the property itself.

If you are looking above £4m, we can introduce you to agents who handle properties privately.

Our Model

Not a buyers agent.
Something more useful.

The difference between a buyers agent and a real estate broker matters — it affects what you pay and how far the service goes.

Buyers agents charge the client directly, typically 1–1.5% of the purchase price. It is also worth noting that they may receive commission from the seller — this is not always declared. As real estate brokers, we are compensated only by the seller, with no sourcing fee charged to you.

The properties they access are often the same ones already within our network, built over more than 25 years — including premium off-market properties that are never publicly listed.

Where a buyers agent stops at the deal, we continue through financing, ownership structure, legal introductions, to completion and beyond.

Common Questions
From International Buyers.

When should I speak to a mortgage adviser, before or after finding a property?

Before. Speaking to a finance specialist early in the process is one of the most important steps when buying property abroad.

Understanding your borrowing capacity, the most appropriate ownership structure, and the financing options available to you before you begin viewing properties saves time, avoids costly mistakes, and means your financing position is established before you make an offer — not arranged as an afterthought.

Which markets do you cover?

Our main markets are the French Alps and the French Riviera, where we have built close relationships with local agents, developers and lenders. We also work across the Balearic Islands, Costa del Sol, Portugal and Mauritius.
In each of these markets, our network includes mortgage advisers and lenders who work with non-resident buyers.

What types of property are available?

Our network covers a wide range of second and holiday homes, including ski chalets, alpine apartments, coastal villas, beachfront properties and wine estates, across the French Alps, French Riviera, the Balearic Islands, Costa del Sol, Portugal and Mauritius.

Some homes are sold privately and never appear online. If you are looking above £4m, tell us what you have in mind and we can put you in touch with agents who sell privately.

What is an international private bank mortgage and who is it for?

International private bank mortgages are financing structures offered by private banks — in our case, institutions in Monaco, Switzerland and Luxembourg — that are not available through conventional high-street lenders.

They are typically relevant for financing from €1m and are particularly well suited to buyers with complex financial profiles: multiple income sources, international earnings, income paid via bonuses, dividends or carried interest, or assets held across different currencies or structures.

The private bank or adviser we introduce can assess whether this route is appropriate for your circumstances.

What if I find a property myself? Can I still speak to lenders through you?

Yes. If you have already found a property, you can still speak to a mortgage adviser or an international private bank through our network, as well as lawyers, notaries and tax advisers.

Speaking to them early, ideally before you start viewing, can help you see what may be available and how you might want to own the property, so you know what is realistic before you commit.

Can I buy property abroad in a company name or trust?

Yes, in most of our markets it is possible to buy property abroad through a company or trust structure — and in some cases it can be advantageous from a tax or succession planning perspective. In France, for example, an SCI (Société Civile Immobilière) is commonly used by international buyers.

The right structure depends on your residency, nationality, intended use of the property, and long-term plans. We introduce clients to specialist tax advisers and notaires who can advise on the most appropriate approach for their circumstances.
