Meet Serge

Some careers are shaped by passion, others by opportunity, Serge Cowan’s trajectory into luxury real estate was driven by both. A former broadcast journalist with a background in sports PR at Sky Sports, Serge recognised early on that while the world was full of football pundits, there were far fewer true specialists in global luxury real estate. His instinct led him to an industry where exclusivity, strategy, and personal narrative play as crucial a role as market dynamics.

Now a leading Global Real Estate Advisor at DDRE, Serge has cultivated a reputation for sourcing and selling some of the world’s most extraordinary homes. His approach is anything but formulaic. Real estate, for Serge, is not simply about transactions, it’s about legacy. Inspired by childhood summers spent in the French Riviera, he understands that a home is not just an asset but a vessel for family history, a stage for life’s best moments.

What sets Serge apart is his ability to listen, adapt, and craft bespoke strategies for his clients. His advisory model is built on precision and discretion, treating luxury property with the same meticulous care as a financial portfolio. In an industry where prime real estate is often undervalued by those who fail to see its nuance, Serge operates as both matchmaker and strategist, curating opportunities that align with his clients’ lifestyles and ambitions.

His expertise spans legacy homes and trophy assets across the world’s most coveted locations, with a personal record of selling in 26 global markets, a world first. Unlike the multi-listing approach common in many European markets, Serge operates exclusively on a sole-agency basis, ensuring that every property under his management is meticulously positioned for success. Whether navigating off-market acquisitions or curating a team of legal, tax, and media experts to streamline the process, his mission remains singular: to secure the right property at the right price, with an experience as seamless as the life his clients aspire to live.

A self-confessed dealmaker and storyteller at heart, Serge sees every transaction as another chapter in a global narrative, one where his clients, whether buying or selling, are always centre stage.
