Reviews:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I started attending Brendan Quinn’s monthly event, the Central London Property Network, in autumn 2021. For property developers (and investors) in London, this is a fantastic event with high-quality speakers, topics and also attendees. The networking is brilliant due to the calibre of people there. The organisation by Brendan and team makes everything seamless and the venue is very classy as well. I can’t recommend it enough.
