He has a comprehensive knowledge of the most desirable postcodes in the capital, while his incredibly strong work ethic ensures his clients are one step ahead of the competition. Guy’s ability to interpret a client’s brief, whether the property is for their own use or investment, has earned him an enviable reputation. Increasingly, he represents our international buyers who value his thorough understanding of the buying process, rational approach and considerable credibility in the marketplace.
