Welcome to the Spear’s ranking of the best country property specialists, part of the Spear’s Property Index in association with One Green Way, for high-net-worth individuals
For high-net-worth individuals in search of prime property outside of the M25, it’s important to have an expert to source the best deals and protect your interests. That’s where the best country specialists for prime property step in.
An expert country adviser will not only negotiate the best possible price on your behalf, they will also ease the administrative aspects that can bog down the deal making process. If you’re looking to buy a georgian vicarage with views of the river Test, an Elizabethan manor that once hosted Mary Queen of Scots or an achingly modern glass and steel house that incorporates the surrounding trees into its structure, employing a country agent gives you the best chance of finding it. Equally, if you’re selling up and moving to the city they can get you the best price from people moving the other way.
For buyers fond of the countryside, the best agents often source properties that are not publicly listed for sale. The very best may even be able to acquire a property whose current owner has no pre-existing intention to sell, all while maintaining an appropriate level of discretion.
So, when it comes to those properties at the very top-end of the market, the right adviser is worth their weight in gold.
