Why Choose Quintessentially Estates for Your Rental Search?

"At Quintessentially Estates, our retained rental search service is crafted for those who value efficiency, discretion, and a highly personalised approach to finding a home. We work exclusively on behalf of the tenant, whether they are high-profile individuals, private families, or international executives, to manage every detail of the search, from identifying off-market opportunities to negotiating terms and overseeing the move-in process.

Many of our clients have complex requirements or are relocating under time-sensitive circumstances, and they rely on us not only to protect their privacy but also to deliver results seamlessly and intelligently. What sets us apart is our ability to tap into an unparalleled network of landlords, agents, and private contacts to access properties that are rarely available on the open market. We pride ourselves on being trusted advisors, not just agents, who understand the nuance of each client’s lifestyle and deliver outcomes that reflect that understanding."

— Michael Harbrect, Head of Lettings, Quintessentially Estates

FAQ's

What is included in your Rental Search service?

Our Rental Search service is a tailored property finding solution that includes an in-depth consultation to understand your requirements, a curated shortlist of the best available properties (both on- and off-market), private viewings arranged to suit your schedule, expert negotiation on your behalf, and full support through contracts, move-in, and beyond.

Who is this service designed for?

We work with individuals, families, corporate relocations, diplomats, and international clients looking for exceptional rental properties in London or key global cities. Whether you're moving across the world or across town, our service is fully bespoke and discreet.

How long does the process take?

It depends on your brief and urgency. For clients with a clear timeline, we can present a shortlist within 24 hours and secure a property in as little as one week. For more complex requirements or niche areas, we take the time needed to find the right home, without compromise.

What areas do you cover?

We specialise in London — including Belgravia, Mayfair, Knightsbridge, Chelsea, Marylebone and beyond — and also have access to properties in key global cities through our international offices and Quintessentially network.

Can you help if I’m relocating from overseas?

Yes. Many of our clients are moving to London for the first time. We assist with everything from area orientation and schooling advice to setting up utilities and coordinating removals. We can also arrange temporary accommodation while we secure your ideal long-term rental.

Do you offer access to off-market properties?

Absolutely. Thanks to our longstanding relationships with landlords, developers, and other agencies, we often secure access to off-market and discreet listings not available to the public.

How are you different from an estate agent?

Estate agents act for the landlord. We act solely for you, the tenant, with your interests at the centre of every decision. We are not tied to any single portfolio, so our advice is fully impartial and designed to get you the best possible outcome.

Can you help with short-term or serviced rentals?

Yes. Whether you’re looking for a one-month stay or a fully serviced residence for six months, we work with trusted providers and private landlords to match you with short-let options that meet your standards.

How much does the service cost?

Our fees vary depending on the complexity and length of the search. We will always provide a clear quote upfront. In some cases, corporate clients or relocation budgets may cover the fee. We’re happy to discuss options that best suit your situation.

What happens once I’ve moved in?

Our service doesn’t stop at securing the property. We can assist with home setup, property management, ongoing support, and even introductions to trusted local services — from interior designers to nannies and private chefs.
