What clients say about Charles Parish & Co

ŒIan is a rare find as a property Agent. He understands businesses and how they need to operate and the key things that will make the difference between success and failure. Whether that's location, square footage, storage space, rent deposit etc. Ian is a master at considering those things for the businesses he represents and giving advice and counsel when considering a location. He has been instrumental in helping us to build PRESS over the past 3 years. I cannot recommend him strongly enough.
