“We bought a property in Kent rather than renting, buying was always a priority to us and we found the perfect place in Stone, near Dartford. Accessibility for clients from London is extremely easy and also from both Kent and Essex. Our workforce mainly live in Kent so relocating here was a very suitable option.”
