Find the motivated seller
Probate, relocation, a divorce settlement, a developer closing their financial year. Situations where a certain date is worth more than the last five per cent of the price.
We tie up prime houses, villas and estates under contract at a price the seller accepts for speed and certainty. Then we assign that contract to you. You complete directly with the seller, at a figure the open market was never offered.
Equity on day one is the gap between what you pay and the independent valuation. It is an opinion of value, not a guaranteed sale price — and it becomes real only when you sell.
These steps run in order on every deal. The sequence is what protects both the seller and you — skip one and the assignment does not hold up.
Probate, relocation, a divorce settlement, a developer closing their financial year. Situations where a certain date is worth more than the last five per cent of the price.
We agree terms and exchange, with an assignment or substitution clause written in and confirmed by the seller's own solicitor before we go any further.
The deal goes to registered investors only. You see the price we secured, our fee, the valuation evidence and the full legal pack. It never reaches a portal.
The contract is assigned, our fee is settled at exchange, and we step out. Your solicitor deals directly with the seller's from that point onward.
Figures unlock the moment you register. Registration is free and there is nothing to pay unless you exchange.
Assignment is well understood in Britain. In Marbella, on the Palm and along the Côte d'Azur it is far less common — which is precisely why the discounts are larger and the competition thinner.
Each jurisdiction has its own mechanism. Spain uses a reservation contract with an assignment clause. France has the faculté de substitution inside the compromis de vente. Dubai runs on the developer's No Objection Certificate. We instruct counsel in both countries on every overseas deal, and we model the local transfer taxes into the figures before you ever see them.
Reservation contract with an assignment clause agreed at the notary in advance. ITP transfer tax modelled in at the Andalucían rate.
Off-plan assignment on the developer NOC route. Four per cent DLD transfer fee, and no capital gains tax on disposal.
Substitution clause in the compromis de vente, the standard French route for changing the named buyer before the acte authentique.
If you are dealing with an estate, a relocation, a separation or a chain that has collapsed, an open-market sale is the slowest option available to you. We can secure your property under contract and complete on a date you choose.
Registered investors see each contract the day it is secured, with the price we paid, our fee, the comparables and the solicitor's pack. No teaser figures and no bidding against a portal audience.
Our buyers sit in London, Dubai, Geneva and Singapore. Waiting until Monday for an answer costs deals, so the sales desk does not close.
