Excellent quality by Patrick and his team, definitely the highest I've seen amongst all agencies in the Kensington/Knightsbridge/Chelsea area, they were extremely responsive and straightforward throughout the process which is quite rare these days. Highly recommended.

Over the years I have purchased many properties all over the world and sadly I have experienced generally
that estate agents have one agenda and that is to get a sale.I had the intention to purchase a property in Knightsbridge and accidentally stumbled on Nicolas Van Patrick (Nic).I was staggered with their honesty
and advice and there style was to build good will and
a strong business brand and not the hard sell. It gives me hope that there are still a few businesses left out there that recognise that service builds a trusted brand. Well done.

Alice has been very professional to help me to find a tenant with a great offer recently. She has provided first class client service, sending me the latest video given I m from overseas & provide recommendation in how to optimize the flat to attract tenants. Her response time is always very quick. I want to give her special credit to strike this deal because we are in a difficult COVID-19 environment. She is a star to help an overseas landlord to find an overseas tenant in a short period of time. Appreciate for all your help and look forward to working with you very soon again.
