The Approach
Good property decisions start with good advice
Tess finds writing about what she does surprisingly difficult. How do you explain over 20 years of local knowledge, relationships, experience and judgement in a few paragraphs?
In the meantime, here are some of the questions you might be asking yourself
Who can I trust?
Who can I trust?
Who is genuinely advising me, rather than trying to sell me something?
Am I seeing the whole market?
What about off-market properties, forthcoming developments and opportunities I wouldn't otherwise know about?
What is it really worth?
How do I distinguish the asking price from a property's true market value?
Is it a good investment?
Are ski resorts a good place to preserve wealth? What rental yields can I expect? What makes Val d'Isère a potential hedge against inflation?
Is now the right time?
Should I buy, negotiate or wait? Which properties are likely to hold their value best?
What don't I know?
Which developers can I trust? What might be built nearby? What are the tax implications? What could I be overlooking?
How Tess works
Tess works with every agency and developer, drawing on real transactions, local relationships and years of market experience to give you independent advice.
She takes on no more than six clients at a time, personally managing every search and purchase, from the first conversation through to completion and beyond.
Sometimes her advice is to buy.
Sometimes it's to negotiate, wait or walk away.
