Spear’s Review

Over the past decade of her career, RFR managing director Sophie Rogerson has advised on some of London’s most sought-after properties with an amiability and flair that has drawn praise from her peers in the industry. One observer says that she is ‘super bright and combines this with market knowledge as well as emotional intelligence’ while another senior lawyer notes that ‘clients love her’.

Rogerson is a Macfarlanes alum, just like her husband and business partner, Richard, and believes this experience has helped to differentiate their firm. ‘Most buying agents are ex-sales agents, whereas we have always come at this from a protection, advisory [and] professional services capacity,’ she explains. ‘That’s why we’ve been able to quite quickly sit at the top end of the table, because that’s what the market wanted.’

The entrepreneurial duo tell Spear’s that their client book has grown significantly over recent years and comprise several billionaires, family offices, celebrities and prominent sport personalities. Their success, they believe, is down to their unwavering focus: ‘We stick firmly to our core values and beliefs. We will only act for buyers, we will never accept fees from any third parties, and we will never talk about our clients or our transactions. We are advisers to our clients and hugely value the trust they place in us.’

In 2025, Sophie Rogerson was named Property Buying Agent of the Year at the 2025 Spear’s Awards.
