You probably know I buy, sell and let property for private clients, but I also receive instructions from developers and sell new build and off-plan property. I’m really excited to be selling units in London City Island, one of Ballymore-ECO World’s latest developments in E14, right on the River Lea. The development The development is […]
I’ve always lived by the River Lee. I grew up in Broxbourne in Hertfordshire, one of the key towns the river flows past. Now I live in Bow in East London, where Bow Creek connects the River Lee to the Thames. Many people love living right by the water, with beautiful river views where they […]

Knowing that there will be fees to pay for the estate agent’s services, some landlords choose to go it alone. But in reality, this is usually false economy. Letting a property […]
I can’t help but feel excited at the new buildings springing up all over East London. The capital’s skyline has changed so much over the last ten years, with new tall office buildings springing up in the City, and residential and mixed-use developments arriving across the East End.

Not only that, but the London property market continues to grow steadily, making London property a relatively sound investment. If you have the spare capital to put down a deposit on a property other than your home, now could be a […]
We all love where we live once we’ve got used to it, and many of us feel great affection for former addresses. But it’s unlikely that you’re going to find an area that will be exactly the right place for you to live your whole life. Sooner or later, you are going to have to […]
I am absolutely delighted to announce that Dockleys has won a British Property Award for the second year running, receiving gold in the E1 Local Lettings Category.
