About Property Search

The London Search Company offers a tailored and client focused property search service representing the buyer and the renter at all financial levels. We deal in both the residential and commercial markets to source personal and investment geared opportunities.

We work on a retained basis, solely on behalf of buyers and renters, never the vendor and landlord. The London Search Company has an unparalleled knowledge of the property market and along with our enviable relationships with some of London's most exclusive property agents and developers, can unearth the hidden gems that are often not on the open market.

Our clients can have as much or as little involvement in the process as they like. They can be there every step of the way or alternatively if they are time poor, the strategy and opportunity is proposed. All they need to do is choose.
