A Bespoke Property Search Service

Our Property Acquisitions & Private Clients service is a highly personalised offering designed for clients seeking a discreet, efficient, and expertly managed approach to securing their next home.

Whether you are purchasing or renting, we act solely on your behalf providing a tailored search and acquisition service that ensures every opportunity is carefully considered and expertly handled.

A Personal Service, Led by Ben Hayes

This service is managed directly by Ben Hayes, Founder and Managing Director of James Hayes.

With extensive experience across both sales and lettings, Ben has successfully supported a wide range of clients in sourcing and securing their ideal properties. His approach is highly consultative, taking the time to fully understand each client's lifestyle, priorities, and long-term goals.

This ensures every property presented is not just suitable, but genuinely aligned with your requirements.

Access to On & Off-Market Opportunities

Through an established network of industry contacts across the UK, we provide access to both on-market and discreet off-market opportunities, many of which are not publicly advertised.

This gives our clients a distinct advantage in competitive markets and access to properties that others simply don't see.

Expert Guidance at Every Stage

We manage the entire process from start to finish, including:

  • Targeted property search and shortlisting

  • Arranging and attending viewings

  • Strategic negotiation on your behalf

  • Advice on value, pricing, and market positioning

  • Liaising with agents, landlords, and solicitors
    Our goal is simple: to create a seamless, stress-free experience from initial search through to completion.

Discreet & Trusted

Having worked with a number of high-profile and private clients, discretion is at the core of our service.
We understand the importance of privacy and handle every instruction with the utmost professionalism and confidentiality.

A Better Way to Find Your Next Home

Buying or renting a property is often described as a stressful process but it doesn't have to be.

With our Property Acquisitions & Private Clients service, we ensure the journey is smooth, efficient, and expertly managed throughout.

Ben and Inga couldn't have been more helpful or more prompt in dealing with our search for a rental. The experience of working with them was first class and after 4months of struggling to find a property, we had an offer accepted on the first day of meeting them.
