The Challenge
Our client knew exactly where he wanted to live and had his heart set on Chelsea Square.

We managed to identify the perfect house for our client, south facing and backing directly onto the garden square, so we switched properties. Lengthy negotiations finally resulted in us saving our clients £3 million from the asking price.
