Leanne the Consummate Professional.

Leanne Boulding from Knightsbridge Business Sales, expertly handled the sale of a business I was purchasing, on behalf of her client, and I must say, her performance was commendable. Above all she provided Exceptional Service and Communication.From the outset, Leanne's professionalism and dedication were evident. Here are the key highlights of my experience:1.Slick and Attractive Sales Brochure:That was not only visually appealing but also effectively conveyed the business's strengths. The attention to detail and creativity in designing the brochure impressed me.2.Navigating Valuation Challenges:While I personally felt the business was somewhat overvalued, Leanne skilfully facilitated negotiations. She ensured that both parties reached a mutually acceptable price promptly. Her ability to strike a balance between client expectations and market realities was impressive.3. Courteous and Friendly Approach:Leanne consistently maintained a courteous and friendly demeanor. Her positive attitude made the entire process smoother, even during challenging moments.4. Effective Communication: The most crucial trait Leanne demonstrated was her commitment to keeping me and the seller informed. Despite numerous stop-starts and unexpected delays, Leanne ensured I remained in the loop. Her proactive communication at all times eliminated any uncertainty and allowed us to navigate the complexities of the transaction seamlessly.In summary, Leanne Boulding's professionalism, communication skills, and dedication to client satisfaction set her apart. I wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone seeking a reliable and results-driven business sales professional.Knightsbridge Business Sales are fortunate to have Leanne on their team.

Huge thanks to Paige for guiding me…

Huge thanks to Paige for guiding me through the successful sale of my business ! Her experience and advice was invaluable throughout the whole process and she kept in regular contact to update me. Paige's introduction to Knightsbridge's preferred solicitors (Ison Harrison) meant that she was also able to monitor the legal progress of the deal and this proved essential to everything running smoothly. Ison Harrison did a fantastic job and were very competitively priced. Without Paige's offer of help, I would have engaged an independent firm of solicitors and faced a huge legal bill.Paige is a pleasure to work with. She is professional, extremely efficient and connects with her clients on a personal level. It is clear that she really cares about providing the very best service and goes out of her way to be helpful. I would highly recommend Paige and Knightsbridge to anyone considering selling their business. Thank you Paige !

Thanks to Sara and the Knightsbridge team

We would like to thank Sara Manville for all her help and support in finding a buyer for our business. The marketing material produced by Knightsbridge was excellent and we were pleased that Sara worked with us to identify suitable targets for direct mailings. Sara was attentive and encouraging and always had our best interests at heart. She liaised with our solicitor right up until the day of completion, she kept things moving and also kept everyone in the loop. Many thanks Sara for achieving such a great result.

Repsonsive, professional and interested

Having made the decision to sell my business, I wanted to give myself the best chance of achieving a 'good' sale, so committed to a process of identifying and talking to a number of entities that could facilitate. I've found KBS to be the most professional and the most interested. I've been impressed with their extensive experience, with all of their people who are responsive and professional - and their process.

Absolute Con - Avoid at all costs, they just want the listing PLEASE BE AWARE - this company have tried to buy my silence and I have refused. I was offered £2000 plus VAT to remove this review which I declined. That's how bad this lot are. Even discounting the fee I paid by 2k, my review would still be as it is. How many other people have they paid to remove bad reviews??? Since my review below was published on trust pilot, they failed spectacularly in trying to resolve matters. I have offered a meeting at a time of their choosing between myself and the regional commercial director (Donald Peden) on no fewer than 4 occasions since writing this review. Each one declined. Why does the man who valued the business and promised he would always be there when needed, never be available to speak with me? It's simple, he lies to get the listing. I asked for this meeting when I was under contract with them and again since this review was written, each time waffle and refusal. Apart from being offered money to remove this review, the following has happened. I spoke with the operations director on the phone, he promised to get back to me by a specific date and failed. He would then get back to me apologising and setting another date, only for that to fail again. He then went on holiday until 6th Jan and promised to come back to me that week (W/C 6th Jan). He did, but had no answers and now wanted until the 16th of January to have a conclusion. (by this point, I had already rejected their verbal 2K offer). The 16th came and went and the on the 6th of Feb he said he would call on Monday 9th Feb for a full outcome and decision as he put it. At last, he stuck to a date, I got the call on Monday the 9th Feb. Nothing has changed, offer of 2k and is still refusing me a meeting with the commercial director. I received a email of this offer the day after and asked a simple question, still waiting on a reply. Obviously I can back all of this up with emails etc. Update 27/03/26 as of 27/03/26, my email to the operations director on 10th Feb 2026 remains unanswered and it looks like it is being ignored by them. The email was an offer of a meeting between myself operations director and DP (Regional Commercial director) at a time of their choosing. Until this meeting takes place, I can't accept the £2000 plus VAT that they have offered me to remove this review. Why are they running away? Why don't they want to meet with me to discuss this? Answer - They lied all the way through this and they have no answers. Update 18/05/26 As of 18/05/26 they have still not come back to me Update 29/07/26 As of 29/07/26 they have still not come back to me. What do they have to hide?

Very disappointed and let down!

We were approached by Knightsbridge at a time when we were considering selling our small business. We had a very positive Zoom call with one of their senior staff and decided to proceed with their guidance and assistance in selling our business. Initially, we were very impressed by the speed in which our information was gleaned and offers begun to come in. We had a disappointing first offer, but proceeded with the second offer to completion. Once the wheels began to turn on the second offer, we felt very much that Leanne Boulding stepped away, and did not interact with us at all. We indicated that we still wished to be informed of any other offers coming in, but did not feel that any work was then being done on our behalf, no other interested parties were referred to us, until after terms of business had been signed and we were tied in. We accepted a far lower offer than we had originally been advised that our Company was worth, as we were then keen to finalise matters. It appeared to us that there was less work carried out on our behalf by Leanne once matters progressed. Our Solicitors were brilliant and saved the day really. We had to do most of the chasing ourselves in order to progress matters, and do not feel that the fees charged by Knightsbridge were justified at all. To conclude, we are very disappointed by the whole experience.

Great experience with Knightsbridge and Sara in particular

From start to finish, the sale of our business has been smooth, professional and we got the end result we wanted. Sara and the team at Knightsbridge did a great job keeping us up to date on progress, responding to any queries, filtering timewasters and ultimately in ensuring we got fair value for our business sale. Their recommended solicitors were also extremely knowledgeable and responsive and reasonably priced. The marketing collateral they put together did a great job in showing our business in the best possible light! I felt we were in good hands all the way through!I would definitely use them again, and would happily recommend Knightsbridge to any prospective client looking for a professional and well marketed business sale!

If you're thinking of using Knightsbridge Commercial to send your business, DON'T. I am currently trying to contact them to obtain details of a business that they are supposed to be advertising on their website, but you just can't get anybody to come back to you. I contacted them over 4 days ago and have run them several times, but when you ring them, there's nobody there to answer the phone.

A pleasure to work with.

I would concur with other reviewers that I had a great experience with this company. The staff were consistently professional, helpful and supportive, making every interaction both pleasant and productive. It was a pleasure to work with Neil Weaver and Tom Lowe, who provided personalised attention, responded promptly, and maintained excellent communication throughout. Knightsbridge produced high-quality marketing materials that represented our business accurately and professionally, and introduced us to a number of potential buyers whom we would not have been able to reach ourselves.

Sale of Business

Having never experienced or ever had any prior knowledge of selling a business i can honestly say it has been emotional , overwhelming at times and made me feel sick to the stomach, sleepless nights stressful for my family & myself.This experience has made my wife and i stronger people and much more resilient.Throughout the process and hard difficult decisions i have felt supported all the time, by the team in particularly Jesse ,she had our best interests at heart at all times , she made time to explain procedures i did not understand and kept me updated daily.Towards completion interaction with solicitors was another minefield understanding the legalities and the wording of documents ,again we were guided through safely.My only criticism was the valuation initially of our business which was not accurate.I cannot thank Jesse and the team (shout out to Ben ) enough for their support and compassion during the sale of our business.I have to mention because of this a small reduction in Knightsbridge's fees was welcomed gratefully.We are glad to be free of the burden of running our business even though we did not get what the initial valuation was our mental state of mind can begin to repair and we are pleased with the outcome.Fresh starts and enjoy being a family again (Priceless)

Sara was extremely helpful throughout the sale process. She was at all times very approachable and knowledgeable surrounding transactions. Thank you, Sara, for all your work. My sale process was a long one and I did, at times, feel the KBS team could have been a little more proactive in finding a buyer. Ultimately, we did find a buyer and have now concluded a sale, so thank you to the whole team.

Very pleased with the service I received from Knightsbridge, and we gave now successfully sold our business! Jesse Daley has been particularly helpful throughout, and the communication with us as sellers has been clear, and updates provided throughout the sale. So yes, have been very happy with Knightsbridge. I would also add the solicitor they work with and recommended was brilliant. So it worked out as an excellent combination. Thanks Jesse and Eleanor!
