Perhay Country Property Search ~ Our Services Perhay acts only for our clients from the moment of registration - we do not sell or rent out properties, so there is no conflict of interest. As each client has different requirements, we need to obtain the fullest detail of their needs and aspirations, whether in relation to size, type or location. We prefer an initial personal meeting at the client's own home, with both parties present if acting for a couple. Having taken a detailed brief, we search for suitable properties and undertake an initial inspection. This process is crucial as it results in a relatively smaller and more focused choice.
