Project Context

X Global Group is a UK estate agency operating across both domestic and international markets, including UAE property. The site required a level of custom functionality well beyond a standard estate agency build, with multi-currency presentation, market-specific financial tools, and a user-facing property management system. I was the senior developer with full technical ownership of the project from inception to launch at Nurtur Ltd.

Project Briefing
Full technical ownership of a complex, bespoke estate agency build. Engineered multi-currency support and custom financial tools from scratch, navigating nine months of shifting requirements to a successful international launch.

The Challenge

The scope was ambitious and the constraints real:

  • Bespoke at scale: The site required custom features, currency switching, mortgage and stamp duty calculators, and a user/property management integration, with little internal tooling or prior equivalent to draw from.
  • Design-led specification: Development was driven primarily from design files, requiring interpretation and technical decision-making to fill gaps where functional requirements weren't formally defined.
  • Moving requirements: Client and internal expectations evolved throughout, including late additions to property types and search functionality, requiring features to be re-engineered close to launch.
  • Sustained delivery pressure: The project ran across nine months with high visibility, while I continued to support other concurrent Nurtur deliveries in parallel.

The Solution

I found pragmatic, maintainable solutions to every blocker and kept delivery moving:

  • Custom financial tooling: Built mortgage and stamp duty calculators from scratch, tailored to the client's market, both UK and UAE, with no existing internal reference to work from.
  • Multi-currency implementation: Engineered a currency switching system to handle international property pricing, a requirement the platform had no native support for.
  • CRM integration: Integrated a user and property management system scoped precisely to the client's needs, implementing only the required functionality cleanly, without inheriting unnecessary complexity.
  • Late-change resilience: Absorbed a series of client-driven and internal changes close to launch, including a non-standard property type, without derailing the timeline or compromising the core feature set.
  • Parallel delivery: Kept the XGG build on track while contributing to other active Nurtur projects, maintaining quality across multiple concurrent workstreams.

The Outcome

The site launched on 7 November 2025 with all Phase 1 features live:

  • Live and fully operational: xglobalgroup.com launched with property search, currency switching, custom financial calculators, and CRM integration all functional from day one.
  • Custom at every level: Delivered a site with a level of bespoke engineering rarely seen in a standard estate agency build, with tools and integrations that simply didn't exist before this project.
  • Relationship maintained: The client launched on time and the site continues to represent X Global Group's brand and international ambitions online.

Let's fix the website bits
that actually perform.

If your site, forms, booking path, tracking, integrations, or performance need 20 years of technical judgment, we should talk. I don't do sales pitches, follow-up spam, or corporate theater. You're paying for ownership: I solve the website problems so you don't have to manage the technical process.
