We are writing to thank you for the excellent service you have given us. The process of getting our tenancy was smooth and problem free thanks to your communication skills. Your friendly and professional approach makes us feel we can rely on your prompt advice and assistance should we need it. During our recent plumbing emergency and repair process we have been relieved and greatly impressed with your hard work and calm support. You are a local, if not a national, treasure!.

Kate Anson looked after our Kensington based property portfolio from 1997 through to 2003 when she moved to Dorset. We have been in the property business for over 30 years and at no stage have we ever come accross an individual who could consistently demonstrate the levels of professionalism, efficiency and helpfulness that Kate could. And always with a smile! We wish Purbeck Lettings every success and are confident that with Kate at the helm, Landlords and Tenants alike will be delighted that Kate has decided to launch this business.
