About Us

Portico have been helping match the people of London with their perfect property since 1818 when we began life as Edmund Cude.

Under family ownership for two centuries, Portico was acquired by LRG in 2021. Combining our expert knowledge of the London property market and maintaining our founding principles of integrity, approachability, and reliability, we’re passionate about making property simpler, with people you can rely on.

This has allowed us to enhance our service offering, ensuring clients can access everything they need under one roof, supported by expert guidance at every stage of their property journey.

To our core service offering of residential sales, lettings and mortgage advice, we have added expertise in insurance, buy-to-let, shared ownership, conveyancing and chartered surveying, amongst others.

Philosophy

With a knowledge-driven approach, we deliver advice in a friendly and consultative way. We are committed and supportive, with high levels of communication thanks to our first-class internal training.

And most importantly, we’re focused on delivering an outcome that is in the long-term best interests of our clients.

Carlos was absolutely amazing! He showed me around a property and I was so impressed by how kind, helpful and genuinely welcoming he was from the moment I arrived. He really took the time to show me around properly, answer all of my questions and understand exactly what I was looking for. What stood out most was how much he genuinely cared about helping me find the perfect place to rent, rather than just showing me a property and rushing me through it. He was incredibly knowledgeable, patient and friendly, and made the whole experience feel so easy and comfortable. Carlos is an absolute star and a real credit to the team. You can tell he genuinely cares about the people he is helping, and I couldn’t recommend him highly enough. If you’re looking for somewhere to rent, you’re definitely in great hands with Carlos!
