About VERA Estates
A boutique firm with a global reach.
Founded in London in 2011 and led from the Gulf since, VERA Estates is a private advisory for exceptional homes and the people who live in them.
The story
Born from a belief that real estate is personal.
VERA Estates began in 2011 as a two-person practice in London with a simple conviction: the right home changes how you live. Our founders wanted an agency that treated every search as a story — not a transaction.
Today we operate across eighteen markets on three continents, advising buyers, sellers, developers and investors. We have grown deliberately — never for its own sake — so that every client still works directly with a senior advisor who knows their name.
Principles
More than property.
Four disciplines shape every listing we take and every relationship we keep.
01
Curated
We represent properties chosen for their architecture, location and long-term value.
02
Local
Deep market knowledge combined with an international perspective.
03
Personal
Every client receives a tailored experience from discovery to completion.
04
Enduring
We focus on opportunities built around lasting quality and value.
