We focus on a select number of clients in order to deliver a bespoke service. This allows us to develop an understanding of our clients' requirements and objectives, which in turn allows us to work with them towards their specific business plans. This approach has resulted in a high level of repeat business.

Our principal focus is advising high net-worth investors, private-equity houses and several of the UK's leading property companies. In addition we act for a range of institutional clients.

Our international work concentrates primarily on the formation and strategic management of off-shore real-estate vehicles, and investment consultancy within the hotel and resort sector throughout the Caribbean and mainland Europe. We work closely with our British Virgin Island office (www.smithsgore.com) and the International Hotel Investment Advisory Group (www.IHIAG.com).
