International buyers entering the UK property market face structural disadvantages without local, independent representation. Time zones, market opacity, and misaligned incentives often lead to suboptimal outcomes. At Griskin, we work with international buyers relocating to London and Surrey, including Russian-speaking clients, European families, and global investors.

Our role is to act as a single point of accountability throughout the acquisition process. This includes early-stage filtering, valuation advice, negotiation strategy, and coordination with legal and tax advisers. Importantly, we operate independently of selling agents, ensuring advice remains objective. For international buyers, a buyer’s agent is not a convenience. It is a risk management tool.
