Education before transaction: how we advise

Most property advice is a sales pitch with better manners. We built Oakbrick to work the other way around.

How we are paid

We are paid by developers and banks on completed transactions, never by you. We say so plainly, because charging the buyer while also taking a developer commission is exactly the conflict we set out to remove.

What advice means here

Advice is showing you the trade-offs. The development that pays us more is not always the one we recommend, and we will tell you when the honest answer is to wait, or to buy elsewhere.

The process

Discovery, a shortlist with reasons, independent diligence on developer and payment terms, then support through to handover and residency. One relationship, start to finish.

What we will not do

We will not push a launch to hit a deadline, bury fees, or hand you to a call centre. If we cannot add judgement to a decision, we will say so.
