Hannah AykroydFounder of Aykroyd & Co
Hannah studied Law before moving into property, initially in sales before happily switching to the buying side over 10 years ago. Hannah founded Aykroyd & Co in 2018, a fully independent property advisory firm covering prime London, focussed solely on protecting the buyer’s interests. They are a strong team who leverage their vast network to source the very best properties for their clients, with nearly 80% acquired being discreetly off-market. With their extensive market knowledge and the latest data, they advise clients on pricing, breaking down target areas often street by street so that once they have sourced ‘the one’ their clients are empowered to make the right decision. They negotiate firmly, bringing in their trusted team of professionals and carefully oversee every element to ensure they exchange and complete swiftly and seamlessly. All of this is done with the utmost discretion, whilst hopefully making the process enjoyable for their clients.
