PARIS · BUENOS AIRES
Personal property advice, management and coordination for international owners and architecture and interior design studios. Patricia Schaefer takes care of the details, brings professionals together and follows each assignment through.

PATRICIA SCHAEFER
Founder of Consiliarum, Patricia brings together property experience, renovation coordination and international sourcing with a dedication to service developed throughout her career. She understands both the value of a property and the importance of having someone personally responsible for its care.
Life in Buenos Aires, London, Sydney, Alicante and Paris, alongside extensive travel across the Americas, Asia, the Middle East, Africa and Europe, has shaped her open outlook and ability to adapt to different cultures and ways of living. She listens carefully and treats clients, professionals and suppliers with the same consideration.
At British Airways, Patricia welcomed international dignitaries and resolved sensitive situations requiring tact, initiative and discretion. She received the Award for Excellence and, on a separate occasion, a personal handwritten letter from Lord Colin Marshall thanking her for the service that had prompted passengers to write to him in appreciation.
Today, Patricia personally leads each Consiliarum assignment: advising, coordinating the appropriate specialists and following matters through within the agreed scope. Her appreciation of architecture, materials and design informs her care for each property and respect for its creators’ vision.
One person to understand, coordinate and see each assignment through to completion.
HOW I WORK
Every assignment starts with understanding the person, the property and what needs to be resolved. Responsibilities, reporting frequency and decisions requiring approval are agreed at the outset.
Patricia is your direct point of contact. She coordinates the right professionals, organises interventions and provides clear updates on progress, costs and outstanding matters.

WHO I WORK WITH
For owners who need someone they trust to manage their residence, prepare for their arrival or look after it while they are away.
You can engage Patricia directly for an individual assignment or ongoing property care. Property advice is also available before a purchase or renovation.
For architects and designers who want their clients to have support after handover: following up outstanding matters, coordinating suppliers, installation and settling into the property.
A studio can commission support for an agreed period or introduce Patricia for the owner to engage directly. Creative decisions remain with the studio; each intervention respects the approved design.
Services are also available to property advisors, family offices and professionals seeking a trusted contact for their clients.
UNDERSTANDING THE PROPERTY
Property experience brings a perspective that encompasses the building, its location and the life within it. Patricia helps identify opportunities for improvement, organise priorities and coordinate the specialist advice needed, in both Paris and Buenos Aires.
DISCRETION & CARE
Trust grows through discretion, communication and consistent attention. Each assignment is handled confidentially. Care for materials, furnishings and interventions respects the property's identity and the work of its creators.
