"Brilliant"
I have total confidence in Ben, he delivers promptly and efficiently at every step of the way. His networks are invaluable and he is talented at identifying good value properties. He helped me secure a property at excellent value, which I would never have managed on my own.

"Ben assisted me in renting an apartment…"
Ben assisted me in renting an apartment in London which fully satisfies my requirements and is a big improvement on my previous rental arrangement
he was unfailingly helpful and available, pleasant to work with, knowledgeable in the market, and interested in delivering the right solution for me as a client rather than pushing the deal through.
I can recommend Ben without hesitation

"Best buying experience!"
Ben helped us secure a buy-to-let property in a week, refurbish the flat in 2 months and get it rented out in 48 hours. He is indeed the most efficient, professional, resourceful, and courteous buying agent we have ever met. We couldn’t thank Ben more for the work he has done. He has done extra miles for us and did far beyond our expectations. We highly recommend Ben if you want to invest a property in Central London for the following reasons.
1. Ben is very professional and super efficient. We’ve only got a short period of time looking for a one-bed buy-to-let property. There are over 100 properties in the area that we are interested in and we know that the market for one bed flat is always very active. Ben did a thorough research and narrowed down the list to ~10 properties for us to view. Ben made calls to the selling agents/landlord and managed to book all viewings in 2 mornings. After the first viewing, we picked 3 properties we liked for second viewing and made the final decision after the second viewing. We wouldn’t be able to find the perfect property without Ben’s efficiency! It saved us a lot of time going through a list of more than 100 properties. Ben did a lot of research before taking us on the viewing tour. He even made a summary list with all key specs of those properties for us to take notes during the tour and take back and discuss after the tour. We understand that buyers want to view as many flats as possible to make sure we don’t miss the perfect one. But it is time consuming to going through that list and then book viewing appointments. And personally I don’t recommend to view a lot of properties, you will get tired after maybe 15 tries and still haven’t found the right one. Hiring an efficient buying agent with strong research skill is the key. Looking back, we realised that we were not exactly clear of our target property at the beginning. It is Ben who helped us make this targets cleared and more realistic. Ben gave us impartial advice on properties but we always value his personal opinions. We’ve known Ben for many years so we fully trust him. And most importantly, unlike some other buying agents, Ben respect our budget, all 10 flats are within our budget and not even a second Ben was pushing our budget to go for something more expensive.
2. Ben has very strong communication and negotiation skills. As buyers, we want to get a low price and then as landlords, we want to get a higher rent. Ben has done both. We are very happy with the purchasing price and the rent. We are based overseas and Ben has always kept us informed on any change of conditions/updates on redecorating process/offers when we want to let the flat. There is no way we can achieve all these within the time scale I mentioned earlier without Ben’s strong communications skills.
3. Ben is very nice and willing to help. We left the UK before completion of contract. We wanted everything to be done electronically and Ben helped us achieve that. With years of experiences working in the property market, Ben has many connections. We are foreigners and don’t know many solicitors/decorators/electricians. Ben managed to find us the right professional in a few days and he always gave us options. He won’t make clients feel that they have to use that particular person or company.
Buying a property can be a stressful process, we recommend you to hire a professional buying agents with both communicational skills and connections. We actually saved more money with Ben’s help then if we did everything on our own. And to us, time is money.

Ben was great! Took the brief really well and presented some good options. Also did a great job in the negotiation and getting it over the line. Many thanks Ben!

Reliable, trustworthy and efficient - basically the opposite to most consultants out there. Thanks Ben - here's to more success in 2019!

"One of the very best"
Ben is one of the most tenacious, knowledgably and well respected agents in central London. I was lucky to work with Ben for a number of years and time after time he went above and beyond for not only a client but also for a buyer in order to get them the property that they wanted. I would without any doubt recommend Ben to guide someone through the buying process and give outstanding advice.

"I could not recommend Ben more highly"
Ben recently helped my family and me buy a property in Fulham and went completely above and beyond the call of duty throughout the whole process. He was quick to find some fantastic properties, worked around our hectic schedules and coordinated estate agents to show us round four flats in one evening and advised us brilliantly on an appropriate bid given his expert knowledge of the market (well below the asking price). When the whole process nearly got derailed by an unreliable selling agent, Ben could not have been more helpful and went completely above and beyond to get the process back on track and see it through to completion. There's no way we could have done it without him - I could not recommend Ben more highly. Thank you!
