I've had nothing but good experiences when renting a property through Alexandre Boyes. Every part of the process runs smoothly and professionally, they're proactive without being invasive, and they've always been really quick to resolve any problems. I wouldn't hesitate to deal with them in the future.

We approached Dan Boyes to sell our house in Autumn 2021 having found a house to move to. Dan was outstanding from the start and found us a buyer straight away. The entire process was seamless.and even more amazing, is that when the house we were going to purchase fell through, Dan found us our dream home, so we ended up both selling and buying through Dan.we even completed on both properties on the same day! Dan was in constant contact throughout with advice, guidance and helpful tips.all of which proved to be extremely reliable and helpful. I would highly recommend Dan Boyes and Alexandre Boyes. Thank you again!

Having met and dealt with a lot of estate agents in finding a house in Tunbridge Wells, Dan and team stand out as being the ones with the local knowledge, experience and ability to get a deal done.

I approached Dan to help sell my late grandfather's house in Summer 2021. I was a trustee on the estate, and the part I dreaded most was selling the house (having never done it before). Dan's exceptional knowledge, his professionalism, along with his care and attention made the entire process by far the easiest and most stress-free of my duties. The network of clients that Alexandre Boyes has provided us a buyer who made an offer greatly in excess of the asking price, which was amazing! I'm very grateful, and would, without a doubt, highly recommend Dan and the Alexandre Boyes team.

Alexandre boys are no doubt the best estate agents I have dealt with before. At no time did they disappoint with anything and I've been renting properties from them for years. Full professionalism all round, they are very knowledgeable and responsive. Should you have any issues with the property, they will sort them out hassle free! You won't regret. They are also very friendly and kind!

We recently sold our house and a separate garage in the Village area with Dan Boyes. The experience was excellent - Dan's knowledge of the local market is second to none. He provided great advice from the outset, with a flexible sales strategy and proactive support all the way through to completion. Having also bought (and later sold) our first house in Tunbridge Wells with Dan more than 15 years ago, I'm very happy to recommend him.
