If you’re thinking of moving, we’re here to help with that too. Whether you’re buying, selling, or just looking for some honest advice about the local market — Rob and I would love to chat.

And don’t forget — as part of our “Support Our School” initiative, we donate 10% of every sales fee to a local school of your choice when you sell with us. It’s our way of giving back to the community we’re proud to call home.

Warm regards,
Kate and Rob Hill

A new landlord database launches in late 2026, and registration will carry real penalties if you miss it. Here's what's confirmed so far, and the small amount of prep that will save you a headache once it lands.

More choice for London buyers than we've seen since 2010, and tenant demand across the capital still climbing. Whichever side of the market you're on, there's good news here. Here's what's really happening in both markets right now.

Buyers have plenty to compare this autumn, which makes the way a home enters the market increasingly important. A strong first impression, realistic price and thoughtful presentation can all help attract the right attention.

A move often starts long before a property is officially listed. If selling within the next few months is becoming a realistic possibility, September is a good time to work out what needs to happen first.
