About Us
17 years in property.
One very clear
conclusion.
Our team is rooted in over 17 years of UK property experience, with backgrounds in
one of the UK’s leading buy-to-let businesses and a client base spanning the UK and overseas.
After all that time at the sharp end of this market, we came to one clear conclusion: the
market changed, but the advice didn’t.
So we built Devete to change that.

Where We Came From
We didn't come from the outside looking in.
We were inside.
The team behind Devete is rooted in over 17 years working in UK property in one of the UK’s leading buy-to-let businesses, with a client base spanning the UK and overseas. We weren’t on the periphery of this market. We were at its centre.
Over that time we’ve built long-standing working relationships with a range of established UK developers, across different parts of the market from large-scale residential schemes to smaller boutique projects. The benefit of that history is straightforward: when clients ask us about a specific developer or property, we can share factual information from people we actually know and have worked with.
Many of our clients are existing UK landlords navigating recent changes others are people exploring UK property for the first time. Over time, we watched the market shift underneath landlords in particular. The rules changed. The tax environment changed. The cost of borrowing changed. Understanding what has actually changed is the first step for anyone considering UK property today. That’s the gap we built Devete to close.

Why We Built Devete
Property isn't broken.
The old way of doing it is.
We set up Devete with one mission: to pioneer the education of what’s actually changed in the UK property market and help people stop making expensive mistakes based on advice that’s ten years out of date.
The people who are navigating property successfully right now aren’t just luckier than everyone else. They’ve adapted. They understand what Section 24 means for their tax position. They know what a higher rate environment does to their numbers. They’ve restructured.
You can’t know what you don’t know. And that’s exactly the problem we’re here to solve.
Education First
We don’t lead with products or opportunities. We lead with context making sure every client understands the current market before any decision is made.
Built for Today's Market
We know landlords most of our clients are or have been them. So we know exactly what it takes to stay ahead of the changes and structure things for the market as it is now, not as it was.
Global Reach, London Roots
We serve clients from across the world looking at UK property from our London Bridge base. Close-knit team. Global network. Deep local knowledge.
Built in London
Our office is in Borough, London Bridge. We meet clients in person whenever they’d like to no scripts, no slides, just a proper conversation about UK property and what they’re trying to understand.
A Community, Not a Database
We’ve built a property community we’re genuinely proud of with regular free networking events that bring together clients, developers and professionals in real conversation.
"You can't know what you don't know.
That's the whole problem and why we exist."

The Team
London-based.
Close-knit.
Deeply experienced.
We’re a tight team based in London Bridge all of us with backgrounds working at the sharp end of the UK property market. We’ve seen the boom years and the years where the rules quietly rewrote themselves underneath people’s portfolios.
That experience is what makes the difference. Not just knowing the market knowing how it’s changed.
Beyond Business
Experts in the industry.
People first.
We’ve spent 17 years understanding property. But we’ve never lost sight of the fact that this is a people business. Here’s a bit of who we are outside the office.
We're Here When You're Ready
Straight talk.
No agenda.
Whether you’re a landlord navigating the changes, or someone looking at property for the first time start with a conversation. No pressure. No fee.
