Months since Alex & Matteo started trading from their Rotherhithe base

“

O

ne is a whisky-loving Devonshire lad who runs marathons – the other a patient Italian who prefers leisurely walks along the river with his wife. But somehow Alex Smith and Matteo Donna found their paths intersecting at the perfect time and a beautiful bromance blossomed.

Now the duo have turned their friendship and £15,000 of their savings into a partnership by launching their own estate agency Alex & Matteo, based in Rotherhithe.

“Our goal, which I hope we are achieving, is to be more approachable,” said Matteo. “We are called Alex & Matteo because we want people who take the time to call us to know who they are going to be dealing with. We want to always be available to people. We think long term that will pay off.”

Alex is the “chatty one”– a single man about town who runs six miles, five days a week and still has energy to go out partying.

Matteo is the “patient one” who likes to listen to other people’s stories and seek out new restaurants with his wife.

Together they are harnessing the power of their personalities through video blogging and social media to reach out to clients and attract people to the Surrey Quays area.

Alex, who grew up on a farm in Ebford near Exeter said: “We called out on Gumtree and to local businesses but another action we took that was unique is to start doing a lot of video blogs with social communities around this area like cafes. When we do that we become a part of that community.

“That has brought us a hell of a lot of interest and it has all spiralled from there.”

The firm’s Instagram account @alexandmatteo, has 670 followers and the pair also have a Facebook page with 246 followers as well as a YouTube channel where they have shared video blogs with staff from Canada Water Cafe and the gallery cafe at The Brunel Museum.

“We want to attract new people to this area,” said Matteo. “We found out about it by chance but we don’t want others to have to do the same.

“We want them to come here with a purpose because it is a beautiful location.”

Alex, who climbed the Three Peaks this summer, discovered his love of the industry as a child by watching his parents.

“We had five barns that they developed into flats but we still kept the horses and dogs and cats – the whole herd,” he said.

We want to attract new people to this area. We found out about it by chance but we don’t want others to have to do the same Matteo Donna, Alex & Matteo

quality delivering

how Alex & Matteo want to put service at the heart of their agency Matteo says the new agency wants to be approachable and to always be available to its clients

“But that is what got me into property and made me realise what I love doing.”

He moved to London seven years ago and previously worked at events company Rhubarb and classic car specialist Coys Of Kensington before landing a role at estate agency Johns&Co. “I absolutely loved it straight away,” said the 25-year-old, who met his best friend and flatmate by finding him somewhere to live. “I do love to talk and make people feel reassured. I’m not just there to get a let out of it, I want to make

a friend and have some social interaction.

“I love giving a bit of chat and moving is really stressful so being able to take some of that away from people is unbelievable.”

When not at work the Blackwall resident unwinds by heading to The Gun on the Isle Of Dogs for a pint or Boisdale Of Canary Wharf for a whisky and cigar. He said he got his best work ideas when going out for a run or to the gym to train for his third London Marathon.

He first crossed paths with his 35-year-old co-managing director

in 2014 at estate agency Oliver Jacques. He was a senior lettings negotiator and Matteo worked in lettings and then as a senior sales property consultant. Both said they became friends “straight away”.

Alex said his first impression of Matteo was “Italian, a welcoming young guy who had the same kind of can-do, never give up attitude as me”.

“I think that’s why we work so well together,” said Alex. “We spitball everything together in the business. He has strengths I don’t, though. He’s very good at sales techniques and drawing out an offer. I’m more here to help and both are crucial elements when it comes to estate agencies.”

Matteo said of meeting Alex: “He talked too much and was very friendly. It was love at first sight.

“I think it’s because we come from similar backgrounds – we both moved to the city when we were young and didn’t know anybody.”

They first teamed up to run Oliver Jacques’ office in Bow Quarter and then decided to break away from the pack 18 months ago.

“We had landlords coming to us saying it would be awesome if we had our own business,” said Alex.

“To be honest it wasn’t something that was on our mind then but when people started to constantly say it, then we looked into the concept and agreed we would be good at it.”

“We are always looking for new challenges and we thought we should open a business together.

So we did,” added Matteo who grew up in Novara near Milan.

He used to visit his father’s construction site and was also interested in property from a young age. He studied engineering at university before moving to London “for adventure”, meeting his American wife and getting a role as a sales associate at estate agency Century 21.

“The best thing about being an estate agent is the relationship with people,” said Matteo.

“I try to understand what their needs are. I love to meet new people and London is a place where you can meet different people every day. Where I grew up everyone was the same.”

where you can meet different people every day. Where I grew up everyone was the same.”

He loves a “marathon of food” and rates restaurants such as José Pizarro in Bermondsey Street and Bocca Di Lupo in Soho.

The pair said they didn’t see their business as a nine to five and often worked until 11pm.

“The biggest challenge for estate agents in London at the moment is to have personal interaction with their landlords and investors,” said Alex. “A lot of agents out there have a bad name.

“People think they are there for one thing only – your money.

We want to change that and have people put their trust in us, instead of in our agency.

“The biggest no-no with agencies is they treat every landlord as just another number and always think another one will come along.

“But we want to look at every valuation as gold dust. We want to satisfy every single landlord who comes along.”

Another aim is to keep running costs down and they have saved a big chunk of cash by working from Matteo’s home in Rotherhithe.

He said: “We don’t have a high street office. It’s important to have an office but not to have a high

Property

street presence any more. It’s more about branding.

“We don’t like it when people say we are an online agent. We offer the same service a high street agent would offer you but we can give you a better price because there is no need for someone to pay for us to be in the high street.”

“When we expand we will get a commercial unit,” said Alex. “But even the high street agents are a lot less likely to have a high street office now.

“When I was at Oliver Jacques about 1% of clients that walked into the office would put an offer down and other than that it was all through online portals.”

Working in close proximity means they do argue sometimes. atteo said “We fight because we don’t hide our emotions, which is good because we can sort things out quicker. And we have more fun than arguments.”

So what does it take to open up an estate agency apart from a great partnership and cold, hard cash?

“More than anything you’ve got to have the drive and ambition, a can-do attitude and positive mentality to make yourself more active towards what you want to do,” said Alex.

“A lot of people get misled by

the idea that it is more quantity than quality.

“But if you offer a good quality with your service to the landlords it’s basically a waiting game because it doesn’t take long until they come back again and word of mouth kicks in.

“In fact we have already had that happen three or four times and we have only been open two months.”

Alex, who previously played rugby for Devon and threw javelin at Championship level, said the new agency’s seemed to be hitting the mark with their strategy.

So far they have completed four lets and have 20 lettings properties and a sales property coming on.

They charge a fixed rate of to let out a whole property and per room.

All of the profit is being ploughed back into the business for the first year.

“We are already going beyond what we thought was possible for the first few months,” said Alex.

“Our goal is to grow slowly,” said Matteo. “First and foremost we want to provide great customer service.”.

Q&A Jo Watson head of residential estates Canary Wharf Group what do you do at Canary Wharf Group?

I joined Canary Wharf Group in 2015 to set up the residential functions for its new developments.

Since then I’ve had an incredible experience working with the designers and architects on both the Wood Wharf and Southbank Place developments, as well as setting up the management and servicing strategies for our residential buildings.

This four-bedroom house is located near Island Gardens on the Isle Of Dogs

This four-bedroom property is located on the Isle Of Dogs, recently named the best place to live and work in London by the Sunday Times.

While residential towers typically grab the headlines, the area has plenty of established housing, including this contemporary property on the south of the Island.

Measuring around 1,225 sq ft, the accommodation comprises a spacious south-west facing lounge and a separate kitchen-diner extending onto a patio garden on the ground floor.

The first floor boasts two bedrooms and a family bathroom with two further bedrooms plus a large bathroom suite on the second floor.

The property is close to the Thames There is a private driveway at the front and a patio at the rear of the house. The property is close to the Thames and a short walk from Millwall Park and Greenwich via the foot tunnel.

Island Gardens DLR station is nearby for frequent trains to Canary Wharf and the area is also well-served by local bus routes.

Go to chaseevans.co.uk

what does your role involve?

I am very fortunate that I get to work with all parts of Canary Wharf Group, from the sales, marketing and finance teams at head office to the design and construction teams on site.

We will have a team of site staff and property managers to ensure we offer the best quality service and buildings for our residents.

featured property

Wynan Road, E14 Guide: £949,950 F/H

tell us about Wood Wharf Wood Wharf is the new residential neighbourhood at Canary Wharf. Situated on 23 acres of reclaimed land, the site has been master-planned

by Allies And Morrison Architects.

The area will bring together the buzz of city life, with the tranquil atmosphere of waterside living. There will be 350,000sq ft of shops and restaurants creating lively high streets and intimate boutique arcades.

With eight acres of boardwalks, plazas and parks, it will become a place where everyone can live, work and relax.

It will have everything a thriving community needs, from a local primary school for 420 children to its own NHS doctors surgery with all the benefits of a private state.

We have ust launched the final 75 apartments at 10 Park Drive, which is the first residential building in Wood Wharf.

Designed by Stanton Williams, it comprises 345 apartments set over a Jo Watson 42-storey tower and a 13-storey tower.

The building’s first residents are set to move in for early 2020, which is very exciting.

The property’s kitchen-diner opens out onto a garden

what’s your background?

I have a degree in earth science and did my masters thesis on volcanology so I think it’s safe to say property wasn’t my original plan.

I joined the oil industry from university and realised quite quickly the offshore lifestyle wasn’t for me.

I started as an administrator at a national property management firm and worked my way up to become its London regional director before changing firms. I’ve worked in ondon now for eight years and have been fortunate to work on some of the most beautiful and complex residential developments in the capital.

Working for Canary Wharf Group was an opportunity for me to swap to the developer side and see a project from construction through to occupation and beyond. what gives you job satisfaction?

I love working with the wider team on our developments as it’s exciting to see all the concepts come to fruition.

I can’t wait for our residents to move in,

what traits are useful in your role?

Property managers are misunderstood by most people. The role involves financial stewardship, attention to detail and organisation; plus an interest in customer service and a real enthusiasm for property.

It’s not all glamour there’s the pumps, the refuse and the fire systems to be considered as part of managing a building. What I can say is every day will be different and there will be fantastic and challenging ones.

what are your career ambitions? ight now, I love being part of the most exciting evolution of Canary Wharf Group’s history. The company is achieving great things and has a real vision for the future and I plan for my career to continue to grow here. what advice do you have for someone considering a career in property?

Consider the property industry in its entirety.

There is a huge amount of opportunity and variety in the industry and a role that suits everyone.

A selection of shared ownership properties has gone on sale with housing association L&Q at Lansbury Square in Poplar.

First-time buyers are eligible to purchase a portion of a two-bedroom duplex apartment and a collection of three-bedroom townhouses at the development, located close to Langdon Park DLR station.

L&Q, which says the homes exceed the Mayor Of London’s minimum space standards by between 40% and 60%, is offering the properties to buyers on a part-buy, part rent basis.

L&Q assistant director of sales Claire Brenlund said: “Many presume that purchasing in London means compromising on space, especially if you’re a first-time buyer.

“However, through our shared ownership scheme, buyers can often afford to purchase a spacious home,

A typical interior at Lansbury Square

without leaving the capital. Through the part-buy, part-rent option, for homes at Lansbury Square, buyers only need a deposit of £14,813 for a two-bedroom duplex, or £15,250 for a three-bedroom house.”

The homes feature open-plan living rooms with floor-to-ceiling windows and private balconies. Kitchens include integrated Zanussi appliances, oak worktops and oak laminate flooring, while bathrooms have Roca sanitary ware, stone ceramic floor tiles and LED downlighting.

In addition to the duplex, a collection of two-bedroom single-storey homes is also available through shared ownership at the development.

While journey times from Langdon Park are around six minutes to Canary Wharf, local amenities are picking up with Chrisp Street Market in line for an extensive facelift having already attracted the likes of shared workspace Launch22, bringing startups and innovation to the local area.

There’s also plenty of green space with Langdon Park, Bartlett Park and Jolly’s Green all nearby. In addition to its public transport links, the development is also within easy reach of the Blackwall Tunnel for access to south London and the A13.

The two-bedroom duplex apartment costs £148,125 for a 25% share based on a full market value of £592,500.

The three-bedroom, three-storey townhouses cost £152,500 (25% of £610,000), while the two-bedroom single-storey homes start at £125,625 (25% of £502,500).
