I have dealt with Michael Kyei-Ayensu of Jacob West for many years now. He helped me in 2006 to acquire my first property in the United Kingdom.

My wife and I embarked on a venture to buy a property about 13years ago, and an instruction through a friend, initiated our first encounter with Mr. Kyei. He made what should have been a complicated task because of our situation, look very effortless.

We built our total trust in him to execute all the transactions which included solicitors, paperwork, and the lenders and with great approach and skills in his knowledge, transparency of his job, we got satisfied with what he did for us.

I will surely be prepared to do another business with him or Jacob West Ltd, as they have surely created a good name for themselves.

Michael and his team were highly professional when I used their services to purchase an investment property. His insight and knowledge was invaluable and he was able to get me a fantastic rate on the mortgage.

The service and personal attention I received from the team was exceptional and beyond what I expected! His knowledge of the local and national market albeit, commitment in finding me the best rate helped in my search for further investment properties.

He was there for me every step of the way. I’m glad I chose his services and would recommend his company to anyone if you are looking for a company that keeps you well informed throughout the process then look no further than michael and his team.

I have no hesitation in recommending the company, as they provide exceptional service throughout.
