From Savills, to Acorn, to Renshaw Smith.
"Exceptional developments start with the right people — I've yet to come across a property that was acquired, delivered and sold by just one person. It's taken me the best part of a decade to assemble a team I trust, so today it takes nothing more than a phone call to bring them together. We don't just advise; we immerse ourselves in every stage of a project, and we look forward to doing the same for you."
Harry Renshaw-Smith, Founder
Harry began his career at Savills under George Cardale (Savills UK Board Member), where the team held instructions on around 80% of Bristol's new-home developments — running 20+ schemes a year and around 600 unit sales annually. Wanting closer involvement in delivery, he joined client Acorn Property Group. The region continued to grow from around 100 to over 600 units under construction and 20 to 50 employees. His contribution to that success earned him a place on the regional board — the youngest in Acorn's 30-year history — with his remit widening to Operations & General Management following the launch of Exeter as a new sub-region.
This experience, across all disciplines, underpins every venture Harry has undertaken and Renshaw Smith is no exception.
No scheme is delivered by one person. Each one is staffed deliberately.
Financiers, planners, agents, architects, subcontractors and marketers — people Harry has worked alongside across a decade of schemes across the South West and beyond, assembled project by project. Sourcing the right opportunity matters; so does putting the right professionals around it.
