    “The best decision we have made in a long time was to ask David to sell our property. He found a buyer very quickly and then overcame various difficulties due to Covid, banks refusing to lend, and other unexpected reasons to get the sale through. Most agents would have passed these issues on once the sale was agreed but David is the perfect agent in terms of looking after his client and we always felt he had our best interests at heart and went out of his way to solve problems rather than let others do it. His experience and knowledge puts him right at the top of the best Estate Agents and we can not recommend him enough. He is also incredibly charming , friendly and knows his business. A brilliant decision to ask for his help and we will ask him again the next time we need to sell or buy a property. “

  • David sold my 5 bedroom apartment in Marylebone, with competitive bidding, whilst it was off-market. Subsequently David was engaged to let a Chelsea property and manage all aspects of that tenancy. The property was placed with one of David’s international tenants with rent for the first 12 months paid up front . As a landlord one point of contact, and a same day response , has saved me considerable time and effort . I have also found David to be very well informed on property market trends.

    Mr Kevin D

  • David Adams both sold my Mayfair property and had it exchanged within 5 days, for the exact price he said he would, after it had been marketed by two other agents elsewhere for almost a year. I can recommend his services.

    Paul H.

  • David Adams sold my home recently after the big named agents who were well established in the U.K. and internationally, failed to bring any interest at all. I was extremely pleased when David sold my property as I was beginning to think it would never sell. He also managed to receive the asking price following 5 viewings all in the same period in August 2019. David had sold the property next door to me also a few years earlier, commanding an exceptional price. I wish that I had met him sooner as I fully believe I would not have waited so long. I thoroughly recommend David Adams to any potential seller.

    Susan Bedack

  • I would have no hesitation in recommending David Adams on buying or selling London or country property, he has years of sound experience plus a good name in both. David is a person I always knew I could trust and rely on to give very sound unbiased advice.
