Friendly and helpful service.

Richard Allen dealt with the purchase of our freehold, setting up of the relevant limited company, and the extension of our lease during the Covid-19 pandemic. He was very friendly and approachable despite working from a distance, and proved very helpful on matters we knew little about. Many thanks.

We received great service from Richard Allen. He explained things fully to us and guided us through a very complicated process. He replied promptly to any enquiry we made. We would highly recommend him.

I have to be fair. Swaine Allen sent me a Section 121 possession order for £188 unpaid ground rent because I had moved address 10 years and overlooked notifying the grounds maintenance company. After a very stressful few days (because I have never missed any payment on any bill or loan), and much to-and-fro-ing with Swaine Allen, they investigated my case and took what I consider to be a very fair and proportionate position which I was happy with. I have to say my initial reaction was they were simply money-sharks, but nothing could be further from the truth and they handled my case professionally and were very considerate regarding my plight.
