Testimonials – what our clients say…

The foundation of all successful property searches focuses on the people that promote, drive and negotiate it. Trust in ability and skill is equally important for us here at Croydon BID. Sinclair Clark possess all of those qualities while offering such an informed insight into the local market and demonstrated a clear understanding as to our needs as a business. Vanessa was involved throughout the process working honestly and diligently to close a deal that suited all parties. We could not recommend Vanessa and the team at Sinclair Clark enough – her tenacity to deliver is unrelenting.

Vanessa’s tenacity, skill in negotiation and general positive attitude was key to securing a significant letting at Renaissance in Croydon. It is fair to say that without her involvement throughout all stages of the letting and legal process, the outcome would have been much less certain. I have no hesitation in recommending Sinclair Clark.

Sam Jones
Associate Director: UK Offices, M&G Real Estate

I first worked with Sinclair Clark when we were acquiring our current offices in Sutton. Vanessa Clark of Sinclair Clark was acting for the main leaseholders and it quickly became apparent that she had excellent communication and business skills. She acted swiftly, professionally, had effective negotiating abilities and quickly brought the deal through to completion, using her impressive 'can do' attitude to resolve the difficulties encountered. We are now in the process of acquiring property in Hillingdon and Uxbridge, both sourced by Vanessa Clark, and we are extremely pleased with the speed of delivery and the excellent terms she has negotiated. Vanessa Clark offers an outstanding personal and professional service and I would have no hesitation in recommending Sinclair Clark to all.

Director of Business Services, OHC&AT

I would confirm Vanessa Clark was appointed by Abstract Group shortly before the purchase of the site which we developed as Renaissance, a 100,000 sq ft new office scheme in Croydon. Vanessa was instrumental throughout the entire process from liaising with the local authority to providing local intelligence via a large network of contacts and in ensuring the building was delivered fully let shortly after completion. I have no hesitation in recommending Vanessa and Sinclair Clark.

Mark Glatman
Chief Operating Officer, The Abstract Group of Companies

I am delighted to be able to recommend Vanessa Clark of Sinclair Clark who arranged a letting of space to us in Emerald House, Croydon. Agreeing terms and working through legalities was helped by Vanessa's excellent communication skills and helpful "make it happen" attitude. The entire process was professional, with all issues dealt with promptly and inevitable teething problems swiftly resolved. It was a real pleasure working with Vanessa via whom we also appointed top class contractors.

Chief Operating Officer, Inalytics

ERC Equipoise appointed Vanessa Clark of Sinclair Clark to handle our office acquisition during Q2 of 2012. Whilst the list of potential offices was already well advanced to three possible contenders, Vanessa’s contribution was vital in quickly establishing the best deals on offer for these, selecting the final choice and negotiating the heads of agreement. Her encyclopaedic knowledge of office space in Croydon gave us complete confidence that we were negotiating hard and that we were making good decisions. We also found Vanessa extremely helpful in resolving difficult issues during the contract negotiations and continued to make significant gains during this process when I had expected to be on the back foot. I cannot recommend Vanessa’s services more highly.

I have worked with Vanessa Clark for around 10 years and as a result I have successfully acquired a number of development opportunities introduced by her. I am impressed with her level of knowledge and network of contacts which have proved invaluable in the acquisition process. I can confirm Sinclair Clark are currently instructed to acquire development opportunities throughout Kent and Greater London, and we are about to exchange on 8 acres in Herne Bay with four other sites in negotiation. I have no hesitation in recommending Vanessa Clark whom I have found to be proactive, communicative and professional.
