This is Dalian Wanda’s first luxury hotel development outside China. The scheme will comprise 1.13m sq ft of residential, office, retail and hotel space. We knew that like Ballymore’s Embassy Gardens, Dalian would ensure their first Central London product would be exceptional. We had several clients looking for investment opportunities. They agreed to team up and with their combined capital, we were able to convince the agent to sell us a number of units on upper floors prior to their release. Furthermore, with the Stamp Duty Land Tax changes in December 2014, we pushed through a same day exchange, saving our clients a considerable increase in cost.

Our client was prepared to look at ‘up and coming’ areas and we saw an opportunity to provide him with the three bedrooms and outdoor space he required, at a great price. He has subsequently refurbished the property to an exceptional standard. Whilst he paid circa £1,250 per sq ft, he looks down from his huge balcony onto new build apartments which were sold at nearly £1,850 per sq ft.

Our client had been living in London for over a year and had visions of finding a Chelsea or South Kensington apartment. Through several meetings, we evaluated that his budget was not going to be sufficient for his tastes in these locations. He was also particularly focussed on value growth. We advised that he consider the excellent Ballymore development, Embassy Gardens. Ballymore was launching its first Central London, high quality scheme in the new regeneration area, Nine Elms. Sitting between Vauxhall and Battersea, Ballymore knew that to attract buyers, it would need to offer an excellent product with keen pricing. Once our client saw the show apartment, he paid the reservation fee. He will be looking forward to moving in towards the end of this year, knowing it has grown in value by 25%.

Our clients had viewed a huge number of options and then they found us. Within two weeks we were counter-offering on a beautiful upper floor duplex in a great road. We were able to use our relationship with the agent to put the property under offer with our client, despite the competition. Keeping close with the agent gave us the inside track for another refurbished apartment on the same street, which we secured several weeks later for an investor.

We have a number of clients who wish to invest in London and possibly have a base here for short trips. The new build options in Kensington provide decent capital growth and a great location for a weekend stay. Our clients experience capital growth without having to pay the full price for a number of years. If they choose not to live in the finished apartment, they can also achieve strong rental income, given the desirability of the address.
