"Kieran Ogilvie was especially helpful and worked tirelessly around time constraints to ensure that nothing was held up and that the lease was signed on time. He was always willing to answer questions, no matter how trivial and highlighted the key areas of the lease we should be most concerned with. Even now after the lease has been signed he still makes himself available should we have any more queries."
