How Caroline Fitzpatrick Completed 160 Property Transactions from Marbella with Setfords
When the stamp duty deadline loomed, Caroline Fitzpatrick proved that distance is no barrier to delivering outstanding results.
Working remotely from Marbella, Caroline personally completed 160 transactions in March, helping hundreds of clients beat the stamp duty hike:
“This was one of the most intense periods I’ve experienced, but also one of the most rewarding. Every transaction represented someone’s dream of moving home — and beating the stamp duty hike made a real financial difference. Completing 160 transactions in a single month was only possible thanks to the fantastic support of the Setfords team. Working remotely from Marbella shows that location is no barrier when the right systems and support are in place. Setfords’ model meant I could deliver the same high level of service to my clients as if I were on the ground in the UK — and help hundreds of families move before the deadline.”
Caroline’s success is part of a wider record-breaking month for Setfords:
- 705 completions in a single day (Friday, 28 March)
- March completions surged 93% compared to February
- Year-on-year growth of 163
Behind these achievements was an extraordinary team effort across the firm:
“Achieving such a huge number of completions across the board was the result of an extraordinary effort from every corner of the business. Our consultant lawyers worked tirelessly to support clients through one of the busiest days of the year, and our support teams matched them step for step — staying late, logging in early, and even working through the weekend to keep transactions moving. It was a true team effort, and a clear demonstration of what can be achieved when everyone is focused on delivering for our clients.”
Mike Brawley, Chief Operating Officer
Setfords’ consultant-led model has once again proven its strength:
“Achieving over 700 completions in a single day, as well as nearly doubling our monthly figures, speaks volumes about the resilience and dedication of our lawyers and support teams. They worked around the clock to help our clients complete in time and avoid hefty tax bills. This success underlines the strength of Setfords’ consultant-led model: personalised, responsive, and capable of delivering even under the most intense pressure.”
