UBP are pleased to have received such excellent service from Helen in comparison to other valuers. Thank you Helen for your service in 2018, we look forward to working together in this coming year'.
Mark Ray, Investec Bank - 'Helen has provided an extremely good service both to me and to the Bank and has been a valuable contact for us, Helen has added value to a number of credit proposals by providing her initial thoughts on rental and market values, providing a general overview of a particular area in London as well as current market trends so we can formulate an opinion. Helen’s help is very much appreciated and I find the information she provides is excellent and demonstrates that she clearly knows the market well. Helen’s character and attitude is really good, we always receive information and a response very quick and I feel we have built up a really good relationship since we worked on the first deal, this is down to her personality as I find her really approachable and friendly but also professional.'.
