Dominic Wertheimer

Spear’s Review

‘Our reputation is purely driven through our clients, and we are proud of what we have achieved from very humble beginnings,’ says Dominic Wertheimer, founder and managing director of Lornham. Having been in the industry for almost 20 years, Wertheimer was one of the first agents to identify a market need for a property management and private office service alongside his buying agency.

With clients based across the world – particularly in India, Dubai and Hong Kong – Wertheimer has established a reputation as one of the city’s leading property advisers. He founded his firm in 2012 and since then has transacted on and managed properties in some of London’s most prestigious postcodes. Whether he’s advising on details regarding home security or securing a rental property for an UHNW client, Wertheimer is known for his discretion, as well as his tenacity and ability to create solutions for clients, however tricky they may appear. 

‘Clients trust me as their go-to person for everything in London, and therefore it is always a long term-relationship,’ he says. For HNWs, many of whom might be based overseas for much of the year, Wertheimer – and the services he provides – is invaluable. 

Adviser Profile

Dominic’s profile within the private client world is one that sees private bankers and solicitors regularly appoint Lornham for their HNW clients, and our client profile stretches across Dubai, Hong Kong, Singapore, India and Great Britain.

Recent notable mandates include a Mayfair townhouse, a Belgravia ambassadorial residence and a grand house in Kensington. Some are transactional whilst others are ongoing property management, but due to client discretion no further details are given.

Wertheimer is well regarded for property acquisitions and in particular sourcing property for HNW clients under the radar. Dominic’s breath of knowledge and forensic approach to sourcing property ensures that clients have a comprehensive search of Prime Central London to find the perfect home or investment.

As Lornham is one of the few buying agents who have a property concierge team, the client has a seamless transition post-completion, with a property management structure in place. Our objective is to provide our clients with peace of mind by meticulously managing and maintaining properties in London.

Wertheimer states that ‘our clients may not frequently reside in the UK or stay for extended periods of time; however, they desire the assurance that upon arrival in London, everything in their home will function seamlessly from the moment they enter their front door’.
