Liam Monaghan

Spear’s Review

Liam Monaghan is managing director of LCP Private Office, a property buying, investment and management company that functions as an acquisition, refurbishment and maintenance service for select international private clients.

‘We’re really a one-stop shop,’ Monaghan tells Spear’s. ‘Once that concept of finding a property is started, we can then aid [clients] with how it would look at the end of the project as well.’

Monaghan has many Asian clients, including several from Hong Kong and Singapore, and they have a range of interests – from buying a home for their children at half a million, to establishing a UK base or developing a rental portfolio into the tens of millions.

How does the firm inspire their loyal client base? ‘It’s that personal touch; it’s that kind of relationship management. It’s being their eyes and ears across all of their full property investments.’
