Neighborhood-first
We only represent homes in areas we know intimately — the schools, the light, the commute, the shops on the corner — so the advice you get is grounded in more than a floor plan.
Boutique Real Estate
Homes with a sense of place
A small, senior team representing a carefully edited collection of homes across Seoul's most livable neighborhoods — with the discretion, market knowledge and hands-on service that a boutique agency can offer.
The agency
A boutique agency with a long memory
Founded on the belief that a home is bought and sold on trust, not volume — we keep our roster small so every client, on either side of a sale, is looked after personally.
Marchmont is an independent, senior-led agency representing distinctive homes across Seoul — from courtyard houses in the quiet lanes of Seongbuk to light-filled apartments above the Han River. We deliberately carry fewer listings than the large brokerages, so that each property is priced honestly, presented properly, and shown by someone who has actually walked every room. Buyers and sellers deal with a principal from the first viewing to the closing table, never a rotating desk of juniors.
Our approach rarely changes. We learn a neighborhood before we sell in it — its schools, its light, its commute, the way it feels on a weekday morning — because a home only suits a family when the street around it does too. We tell sellers what a property is genuinely worth rather than what wins the listing, and we tell buyers what we would hesitate over ourselves. Quiet, candid advice is the whole of our reputation, and we guard it carefully.

How we work
An agency built on three principles
The commitments behind every listing and every sale — the reasons buyers and sellers keep coming back to a small team rather than a big brand.
Priced with candor
Sellers hear what a home is genuinely worth, not an inflated number to win the listing. Honest pricing sells faster and closer to asking, and it protects your reputation as well as ours.
Presented with care
Every home is styled, photographed and written up properly before it goes live. A property that looks its best online is a property that draws serious buyers to the door.
For buyers & sellers
From first viewing to closing day
A clear four-stage process so clients always know where a sale stands, whether they are buying their first home or selling a family estate.
Brief & valuation
We listen first — your budget, your must-haves, your timeline — then give sellers a candid market valuation and buyers a realistic shortlist. No pressure and no inflated numbers, typically within a week.
Prepare & search
Sellers' homes are styled, photographed and written up before going live; buyers get first access to matching listings, often before they reach the portals. Every viewing is booked and hosted personally.
Offer & negotiation
We handle the back-and-forth on your behalf — reading the other side, protecting your position, and keeping the deal moving. You review every offer and every counter, and nothing is agreed without you.
Contract & closing
We coordinate the legal check, the deposit and the balance, and stay involved through the handover so keys change hands cleanly and on schedule. The relationship doesn't end at the signature.

Why work with us
What sets the agency apart
Four reasons buyers and sellers choose a small, senior team over a high-volume brokerage.
Principal-led throughout
Your sale is handled by a senior broker from the first viewing to the closing table — never passed down to a junior desk the moment you sign with us.
Discretion as standard
Off-market listings, private viewings and confidential sales are part of how we work, not a premium extra. Your business stays your business.
Clear, candid advice
Plain language, honest pricing and regular updates. You will always know where your sale or search stands and what we would do in your position.
A network, not a portal
Many of our best sales happen quietly between people we already know. Our buyers and sellers reach a curated network long before a listing goes public.

Questions
Frequently asked
A few things buyers and sellers often ask before getting in touch. Replace these answers with your own fees, terms and typical timelines.
For a standard sale we charge a single, transparent percentage of the final sale price, agreed in writing before we list. There are no hidden marketing or photography fees on top. Replace this with your actual brokerage fee structure.
