Comments from client survey

“ At the core of Savills is a certain type – commercial, direct, you don’t get the fluffy stuff. Good straight forward advice. They’re straight forward, clever, well

educated people.”

“ Savills is consistent. They are entrepreneurial – they are thinking for us and thinking of new ideas. They are good and easy people to deal with – they fit well into our teams. They’re bright and outgoing. And they do understand our business – how all the parts fit together.”

“ Savills is populated by experienced, well respected, knowledgeable individuals. They are quite well supported by more junior teams, and they’ve done well to keep the teams together. There is real strength and depth. I get the feeling people respect each other across disciplines.”
