Sommerville Flury a bespoke premium private client property company, was founded by Mark Sommerville and Belinda Flury whose paths crossed while working for a small independent estate agent. After two decades at Knight Frank and Hamptons International in Prime Central London, they had grown out of the corporate mould and longed to provide clients with the benefit of the many hundreds of deals they had worked on. Belinda and Mark both felt that the focus of the big corporations was turning away from the seller and their needs, and concluded that utilising over 40 years of combined experience to create a more tailored service would significantly benefit their clients.

 Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
