About The Brand

Grant J Bates Property is a brand born from a tenacious work ethic and a love for beautiful homes. We offer a fresh take on traditional agency, personable, dynamic, and exciting, without compromising on knowledge or professionalism.

We are a client-led agency with a bespoke service at the forefront of everything we do. Not limited by location, office politics, or corporate barriers, we adopt a forward-thinking brokerage approach to selling and buying property.

With strong local connections and relationships with private banks, family offices, and entertainment agencies, we ensure all eyes are on our listings. Working with us means benefiting from the experience of a former Head of Private Office, the reach of a powerful social media brand, and the personal attention of an independent.

Grant J. Bates

Meet the Founder

I started my career at seventeen years old after declining university, much to my parents’ dismay. I progressed from renting rooms in house shares to selling the UK’s most expensive home just last year.

I have spent the last 20 years across three different brands, a mixture of independents and corporate agencies, culminating with a groundbreaking Senior Leadership position as Head of Private Office London for one of the world’s most prominent brands, working with UHNWIs to buy and sell property.

I led the UK’s highest grossing and most successful team for a decade and was one of the youngest Heads of Private Office in the world when appointed. While age is no guarantee of experience or innovation, I have a complimentary blend of both.

Across my career I have built a strong personal brand, collecting accolades such as the "UK’s number 1 agent" (The Times), "London’s Coolest Agent" (Living etc), and being proclaimed a "Superstar Agent" by the Financial Times.

I am regularly invited to speak at private banks and am often quoted in the press or present on panels to discuss market dynamics. I am the most followed agent in Europe on Instagram and this social media presence has resulted in record-breaking deals across the capital.
