Salet.

For UK-based NRIs

You live here. The property process still treats you like a stranger.

You have the deposit, the income and the intent. What you do not have is ten years of fluency in leasehold, chains, gazumping and survey small print, or an agent who is on your side. That is the gap Salet closes.

The problem is not effort. It is asymmetry.

Every property you view is marketed by an agent whose legal duty is to the seller. Every glossy listing is an argument for a higher price. Buying well in the UK is a full-time job done against professionals, in spare evenings, with rules you learned from forum threads.

Most NRIs we speak to are not confused about money. They are careful people buying carefully. What they lack is process fluency: what a fair price actually is street by street, when a leasehold term should end a conversation, what a survey result means for a negotiation, and when to walk away.

What working with Salet looks like

  • A written brief before anything else: what you are buying, why, and the limits.
  • The whole market searched, including homes that never reach the portals.
  • Analysis before viewings: every candidate screened against your brief so your weekends are spent on genuine contenders only.
  • Negotiation by your representative, with evidence, not emotion.
  • Progression to completion: solicitors chased, questions answered, keys in hand.

Fees are simple: an engagement retainer, deducted in full from a success fee agreed at the start and payable only when you exchange. In practice, disciplined negotiation tends to cover the fee. We walk through the numbers openly on the discovery call.

Talk it through first

A 30 minute discovery call. Bring your brief, however rough. You will leave with a clearer picture of the process, whatever you decide about us.
