“We would like to take this opportunity to say how grateful we were to you for finding our house for us and for all the trouble you took over the negotiations. It made our lives so much easier just at a time when we needed less stress. It was wonderful to be able to feel that someone was attending to all the problems, large and small, that occur when buying a house.”
About Us
Colin Mackenzie FRICS FNAEA
Colin qualified in the early 1970’s, running offices in Sussex and Kent for Hamptons before taking over the helm of their London Country house department in the mid 1980’s; he now offers over 45 years’ experience of the country house and estates markets across the south of England.
It was the appeal of working to find clients their ideal house that led Colin to change direction in the late 1990’s and, following a spell with the buying team at Knight Frank, Colin and Elizabeth formed their own search consultancy in 2003.
Elizabeth Mercer BA (Hons) MNAEA
From a background and degree in marketing, Liz joined Savills’ international department in the late 1990’s to take responsibility for residential developments across Europe and the West Indies.
Liz has co-ordinated searches across the south east and found houses for numerous clients – largely based on her exceptional understanding of her clients’ requirements and the close affinity she has built up with key people in the main selling agents across the area.
Tracy Bryant
From an early career in the Royal Navy, Tracy brings with her sound management skills. Now joining us from the local independent schools sector, she is well versed in the issues relating to relocation to the South East.
Her thorough knowledge of the area and wide network of contacts underpin her genuine desire to find the complete solution for our clients. With her calm and approachable manner, Tracy is able to offer a considered view on location practicalities in the property search process, as well as advice
on all school related matters.
Being totally independent gives us complete impartiality in making recommendations to clients, whether in the search process or in helping secure their purchase at best value.
With our unrivalled experience, having purchased or sold countless houses, can you afford to buy without us?
