He may have been a sub tenant of the Burgersh Chanrty. He took a lease from the Dean and Chapter in 1724. It was then divided into two tenements, one for him and the other for Newcomen Wallis who died in 1730. When the lease was renewed in 1732, one part was occupied by Lord Wallingford and the other by Dr Greathed. Ca 1730, he bought a house on the east side of St James Square next door to the Duke of Norfolk's mansion. Both properties were later demolished to make way for an "improved" mansion. On marrying Newcomen Wallis' widow, Catherine nee Collingwood, he settled the London house on her. It was eventually sold, unlet and in ruinous state in 1748. He rented Quickswood in Hertfordshire, which belonged to Lord Salisbury in Jan 1731. He also has a house in Ormond st., Queens Sq., London in Jan and Feb 1731.
