| “Having travelled the world for business and pleasure, we have explored land purchase opportunities in exotic locales from Mexico to Fiji to New Zealand; however have never come to the point of closing a deal. It was on our initial trip to Corfu island to meet up with Jonathan Dunn, in order to view some properties, that we came across a beautiful plot of land in Kerasia with views to die for. The most refreshing aspect of our initial dealings was that there was never a sense of a traditional hard sell approach which we had experienced in the past. Over a couple of days we were shown several options which were accompanied by a brief, informative and candid narrative by Jonathan and broken up with delightful breaks for refreshments, dining and great conversation. With the introduction of Neni Lampropoulou, a weekend which was intended for business only, became one of the more entertaining and delightful weekends that we had experienced since our move from Singapore to Greece. Within a few short days, we found out what was most important to us, not the value of land, but the value of getting to know a new place and its inhabitants and feeling that you could easily belong, and this feeling was made possible thanks to Jonathan and Neni. Allie and I are now proud owners of a quaint piece of paradise, where we will begin to build a house with contacts made accessible by our new friendship with Jonathan & Neni.”
Marco & Allie Franck, Athens, Greece "I can honestly say that without Jonathan's help, I don't think we would have stayed the course through all the tiresome bureaucracy that Greece so charmingly has to offer, Jonathan was an essential bridge through all of that. For any British purchaser thinking of buying on Corfu, the service Jonathan Edward Dunn has to offer makes an essential and vitally important difference. I, for one, am grateful for that help." Bill Gammel, Sussex "We can only say it has been an absolute pleasure dealing with Jonathan. His knowledge of the local property market and Greek property laws, have proved invaluable to us. He guided us through the entire process. Initially sitting down and spending time with us in order to find out which type of property would suit our needs. Then taking time to show us around the area with the various alternatives. Having eventually made the decision to purchase a piece of land and build our own house, he then introduced us to an excellent lawyer, architect and builder, once again helping us and keeping in touch throughout. Having now completed the purchase of the land and the house design, we are looking forward to building the house and spending the rest of our lives on the beautiful island of Corfu. We can thoroughly recommend Jonathan Edward Dunn to anybody who is considering purchasing a property on Corfu or Paxos". Ivan & Chrissy Draper, Corfu "We had a very particular idea about the kind of home we wanted to find and after much searching in Corfu, Jonathan showed us a wonderful old olive press which we now own. We had also been looking in other parts of the world and our decision to settle here was very much coloured by the genuine warmth and empathy Jonathan and his team showed us. The introduction to bank, lawyer, notary and engineer have reflected the complete professionalism we found at the Blue House. Our financial transactions were dealt with simply and efficiently through power of attorney whilst we were living in the UK and now we are out here we are enjoying working with the teams we've met. Jonathan's commitment to our search has been matched with complete integrity throughout our negotiations and has allowed us to find a home where we really want to live." Katherine Wise and Richard Woods, Agios Martinos, Corfu "On a recommendation, we popped into the Blue House, Kassiopi, to look at properties we dreamt of but would never really be able to afford to own was a marvellously fateful day. Certainly we could not afford to buy our dream home in Corfu - but we could afford a small plot and to build! The project is now well advanced thanks to Jonathan Dunn (and email!). Our experience has been of a highly caring, knowledgeable, ethical organisation who look after our interests with diligence. We have relied on them, being an effective agent acting at distance on our behalf and being the interface between English and Corfiot practices and expectations. We would recommend Jonathan Edward Dunn, our trusted agents, without hesitation." Nick & Jane Moore, London Our quest for a home on Corfu has been made remarkably easy. Jonathan mastered this complete programme of buying land, designing and building our house, tending to all legalities and keeping us informed with "up to date" progress reports. Tremendous attention was given to our specific needs and communication and responses were clear and concise in regards to time frames and costings. Jonathan and his team offer their help and support with empathy, genuineness, respect, complete honesty and integrity, impartiality, warmth and friendliness throughout."
