Sale of Scottish Pub & Residential Flat
I was delighted to work with Amy on the sale of a pub with a residential flat in Scotland, which proved to be a challenging transaction at times. Throughout the process she was professional, proactive and exceptionally tenacious, keeping matters moving and never losing sight of the end goal. Her hard work and determination were instrumental in getting the deal over the finishing line. A real pleasure to work with and I would have no hesitation in recommending her.
DISGRACE OF A COMPANY!
DISGRACE OF A COMPANY!
Empty promises to sell our company from Brian, promising the earth but absolutely no communication from him once he got our listing money, paid £3,000, even after we emailed him about our disappointment of what we had experienced.
Advertising of our business was a simple disaster! Photos were incorrect on some sites and the description of the business inferior and basic. What was posted was substandard! No professional photos taken just quick snap shots of the premises on the day Brian visited us.
Tried on numerous occasions to get hold of someone to talk to about the matter with no response. Left messages emails etc.
Utterly disappointed.

Overall a good experience
Overall a good experience — communication was clear from Tom and the process moved forward as expected. There were a few minor points along the way, but the transaction completed successfully in the end.

We recently purchased a property through Amy Dilworth, Sales Negotiator at Altius Group Ltd, and I felt compelled to leave a review recognising the exceptional service she provided throughout the process.
From the outset, Amy was professional, responsive and extremely knowledgeable. Property transactions can often be stressful and complex, but she handled everything with efficiency and calm assurance. Communication was clear and timely at every stage, and she was always available to answer questions or provide updates when needed.
What really stood out was her proactive approach — she kept all parties aligned, chased where necessary, and ensured the transaction progressed smoothly. Her attention to detail and commitment to seeing the deal through to completion gave us real confidence.
It was a pleasure dealing with Amy, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone buying or selling commercial property. A true asset to Altius Group.

He has always kept us informed from the beginning and we know he'll find us the best buyer for our business.
Highly recommended speaking with King's if your selling up and if your lucky you'll get Jonathan as your personal broker.

Jonathan McElhinney at Kings Corporate Advisors was incredibly helpful during our acquisition.
From day one he was very helpful, knowledgeable, calm and professional. He introduced us to an excellent finance broker who found solutions where others thought the invoicing structure would be unfinanceable.
When we hit a tricky patch in the process, Jonathan did a fantastic job of easing the sellers’ anxiety and restoring confidence in the transaction.
His steady guidance and the expertise of the Kings team made a real difference.
Highly recommend Jonathan and Kings Corporate Advisors — very satisfied customer.

AVOID!
AVOID!
Paid them £3000 upfront with great promises that never materialised. Only 2/3 months in! My account manager won't reply to emails, the director who took my money won't reply to emails.
They won't send out NDAs (potential customers I have found through my own advertising, not theirs).
Can find no evidence online of my business being advertised anywhere, so what was £3000 for?
seems like a total scam!
No alternative but to seek legal action to get my money back!

UTTER DISGRACE OF A COMPANY!
Gave them £3,000 upfront on the usual promises they could easily sell my business! Account manager NEVER replied to emails, never sends out NDAs etc. Having to deal with potential customers myself!
As for the director who sold me the dream? Again, won't answer emails, phone etc!
Utter disgrace of a company!
Their business model is based on signing up clients
Their business model is based on making money by signing businesses up NOT selling the business for the best interest of the business owner. They will over inflate the prices so you sign up with them. Then charge you to get you signed up because they make you believe they've got buyers on standby. Only then you realise their business model is based on making money on signing people up to sell their business as opposed to actually getting the business sold which isn't seen as the primary objective. They'll also take legal action against you aggressively if you protest to paying unreasonable fees once you've signed up. HIRE YOUR OWN LAWYER TO CHECK WHAT YOU ARE SIGNING!
