About Bricks & Moore

After graduating from University, it only took me a few years of experience in the corporate world to realise my real passion lay in following my entrepreneurial flair.

I have a natural talent for spotting opportunities that others may miss, and have created not one, but three successful businesses.

Following a rigorous training programme with the Aspire Team, I joined forces with an experienced builder, whose team have worked on properties across London for decades.

We share the same vision and finish ideas on renovations, making each project both creative and high-end.

When it comes to property, I’ve worked hard to educate myself extensively, and can spot properties offering the best potential.

About Anna

Before property, I built two high profile businesses — and developed quite a track record.

  • First-Class Honours Degree in Psychology
  • 8 years’ market research experience with London agencies
  • Co-founded an award-winning online dating website, built from scratch
  • Co-founded a dating events business which regularly featured in the London Metro with events held nationally
  • Voted the UK’s #1 dating site by a national newspaper
  • Won an award for Best Dating Blog
  • Regularly featured in the Metro and London Lite
  • Trained extensively with Aspire Academy
  • 2025 Aspire Property Award Finalist — Best Property Project of the Year
  • Previous backpacker, turquoise-sea lover and taxi service for two teenage girls

That same instinct for spotting an opportunity and building something from nothing is what led me into property — and it’s the mindset behind every Bricks & Moore project today.

Why Choose Bricks & Moore

One person, fully accountable

There’s no faceless company behind Bricks & Moore. I’m the sole director, and every project carries my own name, design ideas and my own capital. I’m hands-on from first viewing to final handover — no juniors, no call centre, just one person personally accountable throughout.

A genuine track record

Probate flats, hoarder houses, short leases — the properties other buyers won’t touch are exactly where I’ve built my track record. Eight-plus projects completed, several breaking the street’s price record, with full-asking offers landing within days — sometimes hours — and healthy profit margins every time.

A trusted power team

I’ve worked hard to find a trusted team — from Dan Buchan, my mentor, to a super-efficient, fast-acting conveyancer, a finance broker with unrivalled experience of the market, and trusted surveyors and property stagers. The same faces return project after project, knowing exactly what’s needed, leading to fewer surprises, hiccups or delays.
