The principals

Two people.
One standard.

Lyndsey Redstone, Co-Founder, XLCR

Lyndsey Redstone

Co-Founder

Lyndsey has been transacting at the top of Dubai's private property market for nearly two decades. She spent formative years at Knight Frank Middle East before co-founding XLCR, and in Q1 2026 alone closed just under AED 1 billion in residential transactions across Dubai and Abu Dhabi.

The transactions she has been involved in are not ones that appear on portals. The AED 340 million Jumeirah Bay Island villa that set a new pricing benchmark for the island. The AED 226 million off-plan penthouse at The Alba Residences, Palm Jumeirah, the highest-priced shell and core transaction recorded within an Omniyat development. A single client relationship that has generated over AED 750 million in transactions across buying and selling.

Lyndsey does not work with everyone. She works with those for whom the right outcome matters more than speed, and whose situation requires judgment rather than volume. She has never operated any other way.

Nick Grassick, Co-Founder, XLCR

Nick Grassick

Co-Founder

Thirty years in property. Nineteen of them in Dubai. Nick previously co-owned one of Dubai's most established brokerages, building it from a small operation to a business encompassing residential and commercial sales, lettings, property management and holiday homes, with a team of 150 before a successful exit.

At XLCR, Nick's role is the intelligence that sits behind every engagement. Market read, strategic positioning, the kind of perspective that only comes from having lived through every cycle this city has produced since the mid-2000s. He has watched Dubai through the 2008 crash, the 2014 correction, COVID, and the most recent geopolitical volatility. That history does not make him cautious. It makes him accurate.

He is also developing XLCR's AI and data capability, applying the same rigour to understanding where this market is heading as he has always applied to understanding where it is now.

Our approach

We are selective about who we work with. Not out of arrogance, but because the quality of our attention depends on it. XLCR carries no volume targets, no revolving door of consultants, no pressure to close. When we take on a client, they have all of us, for as long as they need us.

Every client relationship we have built has come through a referral or a long-standing connection. We are not advertising for clients. We are having conversations with the right ones.

If that sounds like the kind of relationship you are looking for, we would be glad to speak.
