Four neighbourhoods on the coast.
Most of our principals come to us by introduction.
If we haven't yet met, please mention how you found us. Residences are shown in person, accompanied by Max Bykov — allow ninety minutes; bring no expectations.

The quiet money is moving inland.
Benahavís transactions, written up for our list of four hundred. Where the appetite has shifted, and why.

On discretion, and what it actually costs.
Privacy is not a feature. It is the discipline of two parties choosing not to speak of a residence outside the room in which it is shown.
Max Bykov · 6 minWhat is said, quietly, when the residence is found.
Max waited eighteen months until the right house came up. We had stopped looking. He had not.
We were shown one residence — the one. The dossier arrived by courier in Geneva the same evening.
Discretion is rare on this coast. We met four other agencies before we met Muse — and only then began to look properly.
Two years on, the team still calls to ask whether the gardener is doing what we wanted. That is the relationship.
The houses we keep, by name.
The developers, private banks, insurers and journals our principals deal with — and which deal with us.
We do not receive fees from any of the houses listed. Introductions are made because we have used them, on behalf of principals, since 2018.
