Searching for serviced office space was made easy with relevant shortlists gathered from a wide range of requirements. Help and advice was always on hand and a good solution was achieved.

Intricate and complex projects.

We approached DeVono with an intricate project that soon became 2 separate opportunities, 1 of which was very complex involving many 3rd party stakeholders. The simpler of the projects was moving at speed, and after DeVono conducting an internal fact finding mission for us, there were able to quickly draw up a very accurate short list of properties. The more complex project had an ever changing set of requirements with an ever more problematic scope. Nothing we threw at DeVono phased them in any way shape of form and they successfully pushed both projects over the line.

DeVono really worked well for us

DeVono acted on our behalf in finding appropriate offices for our small company. They were good at keeping us in touch with progress and quickly found a shortlist of 5 suitable offices which met our requirements. After selecting the best two, they were very effective at negotiating the commercial arrangements with the landlords with input from us and obtained a very good offer for us to consider. We are very happy with the final outcome and the way in which they worked with us.

First time we used a group of this…

First time we used a group of this kind, and am very pleased we did. The Devono team were responsive, proactive, understood our needs, negotiated well on our behalf, and helped resolve every issue that arose. We'll be using them the next time we move offices, and would recommend this group without hesitation.

Recommended!!

Hussain and the rest of the team at DeVono have been excellent, presenting us suitable shortlisted options based on our specific requirements and needs. The process was smooth and simple and it really saved us so much time to find our new office in London.

Finding the perfect office space - the easy way!

This was our first foray into office space in London so it was a happy surprise for it to go so smoothly, thanks entirely to Hussain Khan's great service. I initially contacted Devono Cresa from a recommendation and was not disappointed. From our initial chat, they quickly supplied us with clear links to some interesting options, all of which had something going for them and ticked at least one of our boxes. We then met with Hussein for a whistlestop tour of the options and quickly saw that at least 2 had strong potential for us , with one the clear front runner. Since then, Hussain has helped us with the negotiations and we are now the proud tenants of a fabulous office space in Theobalds Road. I am delighted to recommend Devono Cresa as a superb partner in finding your perfect office space.

Friendly team

Andy and team were kind, thorough and persistent during our complex and changing office real estate search in London. I would recommend DeVono as a partner

Unquestionably Excellent Service

Looking for a London office is never great to do, and even less so when you’re limited in your ability to view multiple offices.

That was until I contacted Andy James of DeVona Cresa; Andy lifted everything off me after taking a detailed brief on what we were looking for and what we would/wouldn’t consider.

From contacting Andy to signing the paperwork on our UK office believe it was 8 days.

Andy James and DeVona Casa delivered against brief perfectly and can not recommend working with Andy highly enough.

10/10.

Lease break - property search

We engaged DeVono Cresa to support our search for a new office as our lease break approached. They helped us at the outset to understand what we wanted from our space & how the pandemic might have impacted working practices and then we used that work to inform our decision after they presented us with a full range of traditional leasehold and flexible offerings.

Everything was delivered on time, their advice was pragmatic and always focused on delivering the right outcome for us as their client and we look forward to shortly moving into our new office.

I would be delighted to work with them again in the future.

I couldn’t recommend DeVono Cresa highly enough.

We dealt with Andy James who was always friendly, quick to respond to any query and proactively liaised between ourselves and our new landlord.

He took all the stress out of finding a new office space and helped us make a fantastic saving on our annual outgoings.

Their market insights also proved invaluable in our decision to move from a leased space to a serviced office.

Reliable and professional company

Great company, excellent service: adaptive to changing requirement on-the-go, unprecedented understanding of the commercial real estate market, exceptional network. Last-minute request for 6 more viewings on a different spec was turned around in the same afternoon and all set up, operationally responsive. Strong commercial advisory skills at driving the best deal and securing a significant discount with one of the biggest real estate providers, 6-figure savings per annum for our business.

I engaged with DeVono Cresa to find our new offices. Paul presented me all the options within my search criteria quickly and clearly and made time to talk through the options. Paul was open and honest and helped me think through the criteria. It was helpful to test the market to ensure we were in the best office. It was good to know where our provider sat compared to others. It has resulted in us getting a much better deal to stay at our current provider.

Lockdown deal maker

At a time when office space is going through its biggest change, with the help of Hussain Khan we were able to consider a number of options and ultimately move our Central London office to fantastic new premises on a deal that works for everyone.

Hussain was professional, polished and diligent throughout - not to mention patient!
