Kevin Green at Hurford Salvi Carr was extremely helpful and efficient in arranging the transaction, assisting the process by recommending solicitors familiar with the area and property as well as seeking feedback from the seller as rapidly as possible each time a discussion needed to take place. The end result was a very fast process to exchange and a successful sale with very little stress.

We certainly would work with Hurford Salvi Carr again and would highly recommend your company.

Kevin Green contacted me after I registered an interest in another property on a generic agent’s website. The property he offered, amongst several, much better suited my needs. From the moment of first contact to completion of the sale this week I found Kevin highly professional, supportive and, importantly, very responsive to my questions. I wish to thank him, especially as I had specific requirements and need for much engagement to ensure this transaction proceeded in a timely manner – this he did with aplomb, and on the basis of my experience would have no hesitation in recommending the services of Hurford Salvi Carr.

Kevin operated superbly in the purchase of the flat I acquired for my client. It was not simply a case of arriving on time when meetings were scheduled but he also provided vast background knowledge to the building and the vendors, allowing us to be flexible to their requirements.

Laterally he even found the make of the kitchen in the flat we were purchasing and confirmed with the manufacturer that it was still in stock! This really is going beyond ones duties.

As a buying agent I am constantly disappointed in the calibre and Standard of estate agents. However, when I find a good one, not only does the transaction go much more smoothly but I also return to them for repeat business. Selling property is not rocket science but finding a good agent at a good and reputable company is very difficult, in Kevin, I have just that. And I look forward to buying from him again, very soon.

I have recommended Hurford Salvi Carr before and will continue to do so and I will also recommend Kevin personally.

I was met by Alex: I explained that I was selling my family home in North London and that I was looking for a flat in the City that could be my new “home”. Alex understood me immediately.

Today, in getting the keys to the bright, spacious… Perfect flat in Fetter Lane, I’m aware of all the delicate negotiations done by Alex to arrive at a price that the sellers and myself would find acceptable.

Alex is a courteous, pleasant person. Very professional. Certainly quite the opposite of the popular image of “the estate agent”

I felt kept up to date through what is a challenging process and that she was considered and balanced in getting the transaction completed in a fair way.

Very impressive in her organisation and a decent manner – I’d recommend as an excellent professional.

Omar, you were wonderful throughout this purchase – unfailingly patient, charming, and seriously helpful. We were not the easiest of buyers to work with, I am sure, but you were always there for us, and nothing was ever too much trouble.

Please let us know if you would like us to write this on our letterhead or in some other medium – we would be delighted to do so. We would also be happy to act as referee at any time.

We wish you, Ciara, and Hurford Salvi Carr great success in 2015.

Cora carries on her work diligently and never fails to arrive for appointments on time or to advise if there is going to be a delay.

Hopefully we shall be fortunate enough to find our next property through Cora.

During the search process I spoke primarily with Christina Jolly in the City office. I saw several flats through Hurford Salvi Carr in the Clerkenwell area, and I found Hurford Salvi Carr to consistently have the most appealing properties to me. Christina was always friendly and knowledgeable in the viewings, and not only did she provide good information on the particular flat that I was viewing, but she also gave helpful advice on my general search process and in-depth knowledge on the Clerkenwell neighbourhood.

Once I found my flat, making an offer and the subsequent bidding process was straightforward. While under offer, Christina helped to make the stressful process of completing as least stressful as possible, while also helping to ensure the sale completed efficiently. I completed in a matter of six weeks, despite suffering a number of small hiccups on my side and against the backdrop of a rising market. Christina’s honesty, communicativeness, detailed outlines of the timeline and process, and proactive reminders did wonders to get us across the finish line. Though our incentives were obviously both aligned to get the sale done, I really felt like Christina was also looking out for me.

I am now happily living in my new flat and am even happier for it for having worked with Hurford Salvi Carr. I recommend them unreservedly.

As you might know we have already moved into the Panoramic Tower.
I would like to thank you for your outstanding attention and assistance. I have contacted several state agents when looking for property and you have been the only one to give a proper and personalized attention to find the property according to the parameters we were looking for.
Be sure that whenever I have the opportunity I will indeed recommend your services.

The Indonesian pineapple tarts are a small token of my thanks for your fine efforts in bringing the deal to a successful completion.

I deeply appreciate how friendly, professional, helpful and pro-active you have been throughout the period of over four months, from the time the Vendor accepted my offer until we finally completed on 1 August 2013.

When you showed me the flat, I was most impressed by your knowledge of the details of the property, and the area, as well as your good relationship with the Vendor. Together with your very pleasant personality and your natural friendliness, these made it easy for me to decide to proceed with the purchase.

As you are aware, the sale process was not a smooth one and, but for your persistence in following up and for your hard work in general, it is doubtful that the Vendor and I would have stayed the course and I would not have been able to acquire the property. What struck me, and which I found highly commendable, was how active you were in trying to resolve the various issues that arose during the course of the transaction. In particular, when a problem emerged in relation to the title to the car park lot, you suggested, and worked with the Vendor’s solicitor so that I obtained, an indemnity policy. When there was a delay by my bankers’ valuer in delivering a re-valuation of the property (without taking the car park into account), you went out of your way to try to contact him in an effort to expedite the process. This was well beyond the call of duty.

In summary, I am very grateful for the good work you have put in for me and for the Vendor in achieving a successful completion of this transaction. If I was your client, I should be very satisfied indeed!.

Once again, many thanks for all your help and hard work.

The main things that gave me confidence, as a buyer, to fully engage with you in  ‘keeping things on track’ were:

• – your accurate presentation of facts,
• – your prompt response to queries/issues, and
• – your complete lack of ‘flannel’, pomposity or and pressure selling tactics.

Despite the complication of me being resident in Hong Kong, their efforts assisted greatly in making the transaction as smooth as one could hope.

She did this with real grace, a trait rare , and consequently I never felt “sold to ” and had the impact of maintaining my commitment to the purchase.
She was efficient throughout , always doing what she said she would and managed to deal with my chaotic work schedule with forbearance.

There were a few stressful moments, inevitably, and Cora handled the challenges between myself and the developer diplomatically and effectively

I really wanted to have Cora give me the keys… It felt right that the person who first presented me with my potential new home should be there at the end.

I work across many sectors and with many people and I found Cora professional , impressive and would absolutely recommend her and your agency to my friends and colleagues.

Given my experience, I would not hesitate to recommend Cora to colleagues, friends, and others who are not experienced with the market, and require a professional who is willing to go the extra mile to assist a purchaser and make their new home buying experience a pleasant one.

Cora was always readily available and happy to be contacted at all times. We felt that we could rely on her diligence at every stage in the process, and feel as though we benefited from a personal level of service, despite the fact that Cora probably had plenty of other instructions to manage.

Would be very happy to recommend Cora to anyone looking to buy or sell!

Many thanks Lisa and let’s stay in touch!

Just a quick note to thank you for all your help and advice during the purchase of the flat in St John Street. It was all very pain-free and even when problems arose you dealt with them quickly and efficiently. Your professionalism was very much appreciated.

Other agents were approached during this process, but it is fair to record that the staff of Hurford Salvi Carr were particularly helpful and dedicated considerable time to the viewing and selection process, and the post purchase rental activity. At all times they put up with unending and possibly repetitive questions without flinching!

I would use Hurford Salvi Carr again and recommend them to anyone seeking guidance on the City of London property market. In my view they are different (and that means better) than the large property corporates. Great people to work with. A very good experience. Nothing that I would not do again!
