I approached Dan to help sell my late grandfather's house in Summer 2021. I was a trustee on the estate, and the part I dreaded most was selling the house (having never done it before). Dan's exceptional knowledge, his professionalism, along with his care and attention made the entire process by far the easiest and most stress-free of my duties. The network of clients that Alexandre Boyes has provided us a buyer who made an offer greatly in excess of the asking price, which was amazing! I'm very grateful, and would, without a doubt, highly recommend Dan and the Alexandre Boyes team.

Alexandre boys are no doubt the best estate agents I have dealt with before. At no time did they disappoint with anything and I've been renting properties from them for years. Full professionalism all round, they are very knowledgeable and responsive. Should you have any issues with the property, they will sort them out hassle free! You won't regret. They are also very friendly and kind!

We recently sold our house and a separate garage in the Village area with Dan Boyes. The experience was excellent - Dan's knowledge of the local market is second to none. He provided great advice from the outset, with a flexible sales strategy and proactive support all the way through to completion. Having also bought (and later sold) our first house in Tunbridge Wells with Dan more than 15 years ago, I'm very happy to recommend him.

I recently instructed Alexandre Boyes to sell a town house in Tunbridge Wells, to say the service was quick, efficient and professional is very much an understatement, the house sold in 48 hours, exchanged and completion within 6 weeks. The sale was handled from start to finish by Dan Boyes and I have no hesitation in recommending both Dan and his company. Great Job !
