Upkeeping Appearances: Is property maintenance worth it?
When it comes to running London's most desirable residences, the old proverb "a stitch in time saves nine" is as true today as it ever was, says Bill Shipton...
After a successful career in the British army, Bill has built businesses that embrace technology to change the status quo. With a track record of innovation in the business information and recruitment arenas, Bill has spent the last few years focussing on London super prime residential property. This experience combined with an understanding of the challenges faced by property owners led to the creation of Bold & Reeves.
