Dwelly acquires Settio Property Experience

Wilson Partners Corporate Finance team were delighted to support AI-enabled property technology group Dwelly, with financial and tax due diligence on its acquisition of Settio Property Experience.

Deal overview

London-based AI-enabled property technology group Dwelly completed its seventh acquisition of the year in June 2026, as they acquired property management and investment advisory business, Settio Property Experience.

The deal expands Dwelly’s managed portfolio by more than 2,000 properties, increasing its nationwide total to approximately 14,000. It also strengthened the group’s geographical presence through the addition of Settio’s offices in Manchester, Birmingham, London and Singapore, further supporting Dwelly’s continued growth strategy.
Dwelly is a modern lettings and property management company committed to making the rental experience better for everyone involved. Founded by people who have experienced the rental market from both sides, Dwelly was created to address many of the frustrations that still exist for landlords, tenants and letting agents alike.

Dwelly has grown by acquiring established letting agencies, preserving the trusted relationships, local expertise and reputations they have built over many years. By combining these strong foundations with better technology, streamlined systems and operational support, Dwelly helps agencies grow, improve their service and deliver a better experience for their clients.

Settio was founded in 2017 by Samuel Fitz-Hugh and Chris Parsonage, who built the business around the needs of international investors buying into UK residential property. Headquartered in Manchester, the firm expanded from the city’s new-build market into London and Birmingham before opening an office in Singapore’s Raffles Place, from which Parsonage drives business development across the Asia-Pacific region. The company grew organically, without prior external investment.

Tyron Reinecke, Corporate Finance Associate Director, Wilson Partners commented: “This is a strategic transaction that strengthens Dwelly’s platform by increasing its property under management while adding a geographical dimension to its operations. We are proud to have supported the team on another important milestone and wish them every success as they integrate the business.”
