John Mather

In 1973 John left the manufacturing research world of IBM laboratories for a career in wealth management. In March 2020 he and his wife, Martha retired to live in Funchal, Madeira.

Émigré.eu is part of the solution to the desire of many individuals and families to redomicile to enjoy life in one of the worlds healthiest environments.

John’s first project, selling life insurance, morphed into a six branch Estate agency business with 76 staff based in the South East of England and London. The Chelsea office was retained, and the remaining offices sold to the Prudential and other institutions in 1988.

That property theme has run throughout John’s career, during which he has achieved over 70 sale and leaseback contracts of commercial buildings, the financing of the West London and Glasgow sites of the BBC, and the underwriting of a new head office for ICI in Manchester Square, Marylebone.

Since coming to Madeira, John has advised or participated in the acquisition of a number of properties in Funchal, Prazeres, Porto Santo, Calheta and Câmara de Lobos. Some of these were mentioned in an article in the Sunday Times July 20th this year.

Through John’s career he has worked on a project basis with a number of personal projects and JV partners to optimize the financial position of all the participants. He built a wealth management business to manage 119 clients and £600M of assets. John has extensive contacts in the financial services world and if required can make recommendations.

The purchase of property in a new country can be a stressful exercise. That’s where emigre.eu comes in. John’s service relocates clients smoothly and efficiently with an experienced specialist on hand through the entire process.
