International real estate advisor Savills has won the accolade
for UK national property advisor of the year at last night's
Estates Gazette awards.
The leading UK real estate publication held its annual ceremony,
hosted by comedian Marcus Brigstocke and BBC News' Louise Minchin,
at the London Park Lane Hilton. Savills Chairman, Mark
Ridley, collected the award on behalf of the commercial
business.
According to the judges: "Savills is an enviable machine,
churning out impressive fees and profit levels. It addresses client
issues, has a great culture and with a strong residential arm has
firepower across the board."
Barry Allen, head of Savills Birmingham, adds: "Having been
nominated best property advisor in the West Midlands earlier this
year, this latest award sees 2011 complete on a high. Savills
success across the UK demonstrates the firm's commitment to
offering a national service with a local expertise. In addition,
our strong global business continues to place Savills at the
forefront as international investors and corporates look outside
London for opportunity."
In addition to the award, this year Savills was the only UK
property adviser to be voted by Estates Gazette readers as best in
class across four regional categories.
