"As a self-confessed high-maintenance client, I’m acutely aware that I typically ask for the impossible; in scope, in economics, in ambition. With the myriad tools available to brokers, for me, the key ingredient to a successful partnership is how acutely our needs are heard and translated into action. Luke and the entire team at DeVono Cresa deciphered our ambitions with patience, pragmatism and good humour. Not only did they present options that answered the questions I had, they provided alternative directions informed by their local expertise, which, being based in the USA, was vital for me to be able to make solid, well-informed decisions. I would not hesitate to recommend Luke and his team, and look forward to our next encounter."

"We worked on an exclusive basis with DeVono on this project to relocate to bigger premises in the City. It took us less than 1 month to identify a perfect property in a prime location and less than 8 weeks to complete. We had a definite time limit to work to as our current lease was terminating for refurbishment and we had no fall-back position. Our team at DeVono understood our requirements straight away and, once the heads of terms were agreed (in a matter of days), performed all of the negotiations on our behalf with little input from me and achieved all of the major points in the contract that we wanted. Post completion DeVono were attentive in ensuring that the landlord met his obligations on a timely basis. As a result we felt that we received a first class service from DeVono and have very happy staff in a bigger, smarter office and already we can see the productivity gains arising from this. I would not hesitate in recommending the services of DeVono. They were superb."

"Our second time using DeVono and again I was very impressed with the team - friendly, efficient and extremely commercial and honest. They understood the brief and worked hard to deliver the right property for our needs. In what was an unfamiliar area to me, they provided guidance on key issues and negotiated very good terms, highly recommendable. From a Relocation Management perspective, the relocation was managed in a timely and professional manner with an eye always on the bottom line. They provided good recommendations for contractors and suppliers and made a time-consuming and difficult process almost enjoyable!"

"Having appointed DeVono Cresa in March 2016 to find our next high profile London office from 2018, we have not been disappointed with their high level of service and meticulous attention to detail from the very first day, through to signing the Agreement for Lease and beyond. They assured us during the tender process that they would be right by our side all the way through and not just appointed to “do the deal” and this is exactly what we received. DeVono Cresa have a solid professional relationship with many landlord’s agents and property owners - their network is fantastic. The negotiations were not battle-like as if we were sitting in a war zone but professional and well composed and articulated. It showed to me the great mutual respect between our future Landlord and DeVono Cresa which was a refreshing experience."
