Luxury Property Acquisition in San Francisco
Real Estate in San Francisco
San Francisco is the centre of the technology economy and where a great deal of recent Indian wealth was made. Its economy runs on technology, venture capital and the companies that follow them, and the members we look after here are typically founders, operators and investors, most of them first generation.
Property is found before it is listed, where that is possible. We work through owners and their advisers rather than portals, arrange viewings privately, and bring in local counsel and tax advice before anything is signed.
Ownership structure and tax treatment are decided before an offer, not after. Practically, an international airport with a dedicated business aviation side, and the client here is young, liquid, and unimpressed by ceremony.
Most of what we arrange here runs between San Francisco and India. That means one desk holding both ends, so nothing is lost between an adviser there and a counterparty here, and neither side is left waiting on the other's working hours.
Held locally
How this works in San Francisco.

- Ownership structure is settled with your advisers before an offer is made.
- Where something cannot be arranged in San Francisco on the terms you have asked for, you are told that plainly and early rather than late.
