Homesearch

Our unrivalled range of homesearch services offer you complete choice of freedom, allowing you to minimise your costs whilst fulfilling the needs of each individual employee. We offer programmes suitable for individuals, for couples, and for families moving with children who need school search assistance.

  • Our one day programme is ideal for an individual employee looking for an apartment and moving to an area they are familiar with.
  • For your employees who are new to the UK we offer a two day programme which may include optional area orientation. This would also allow for multiple target areas.
  • The four day programme is suitable for couples who may have one or more target areas and who may need more in-depth area orientation. It would also be ideal for a family moving with children who are already familiar with the area, or who don’t need as much support with a school search.
  • Our six day programme is the most suitable for expatriate families on international moves who need both a home and school search.
All programmes include full settling-in support with unlimited telephone and email support. Assistance with arranging temporary accommodation, booking flights and hotels, and organizing and managing removals is also included. Should you require a more bespoke service, we would be delighted to work with you in drawing up a unique programme that matches your requirements, please get in touch with us to discuss further.
