We received 3 offers within 1 week of putting our property on the market and got our full asking price. We used Laurence after some disappointing experiences with (inter)national agents. Laurence was the agent that we originally bought our house from 20 years ago. We remembered him very positively but had previously felt that it was safer to go with a national agent for renting the property out and for a previous, aborted attempt to sell. We chose Laurence this time around in part due to our previous positive experience with him, partly because we thought he might be better connected to the local

We have just exchanged on our house and can confirm that the service received from Laurence Leigh has been quite superb. Laurence specifically has been wholly responsible for seeing the transaction through difficult times and looking after us - always returning calls and completely honest and effective. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

We had an excellent experience finding a property to rent with Laurence Leigh Residential. Sam made the process very easy and enjoyable - he was always happy to respond to our queries and made the moving process way less stressful! We would recommend Laurence Leigh Residential to anyone - definitely the easiest and most enjoyable renting experience we have had! Thank you again to everyone who was involved.

I am a medical consultant. I have been renting through various letting agencies for nearly 20 years. I have rented my current home from Laurence Leigh Residential about a year ago. It has been the best expereince so far, and I'd definitely rank them as the best agent! They have a lovely team. Sam Robins, the letting manager at St John's Wood, is so professional, but also down to earth person with wonderful manners. I recommend them highly! Thank you
