So helpful and professional
Throughout the entire buying process we were assisted by Olivia. She was patient, especially when buying the Manchester flat. She was understanding and helpful and her response times were over and above our expectations.
Would recommend Knight Knox and if you are lucky enough to buy via Olivia the process will be smooth.

Awful, sold me a disaster
I was sold an investment which turned out to be a disaster. There was clearly very little due diligence done by Knight Knox. I have lost over £85,000. They often claim things are ‘unprecedented’ but this is not the case since this is not the first time one of their ‘assured’ schemes has gone wrong. I have been caught with another and I know of at least two more! They should not sell such deals. They drop you like a stone as soon as things go wrong. AVOID.

Dear Ian,
We are incredibly sorry that you and other buyers have been affected following the administration of Apple Invest UK.
Knight Knox have been working with you since 2014 and we can only apologise for the issue with your most recent investment with us.
We appreciate the comments that you have made and can assure you this is not the outcome that we would have wanted for our clients, and certainly not one that we could have anticipated.
For the benefit of anyone reading this review, we would like to assure you that, as always, we carried out full due diligence on this investment before presenting it to our clients. The site had been operating successfully prior to us taking it on board, with another agent selling it for at least three years with no issues.
We are always here to address any issues our clients may have with their investments, however as the situation you are referring to is subject to a legal process, our hands have been tied as to the amount of information we could and can still provide about the situation.
Yours,
Knight Knox.

Dear Claudia,
We fully appreciate how upsetting this is and we can assure you that this is not a situation we would want our clients to find themselves in.
You completed your purchase of a holiday lodge in June 2023 and we contacted you in August 2023 to see how things were going. Our office then liaised with you and the seller in October 2023 to clarify when your quarterly rental payment was due and you were made aware of the response.
In July 2024 we were made aware that the seller had contacted all buyers directly to advise that the quarterly rental payments would be late. The seller did not communicate this to our office and this only came to our attention when clients contacted Knight Knox directly.
The seller reiterated the same information to Knight Knox and then asked that all clients raise any questions directly with them, as opposed to our office.
We continued to follow up with the seller and in August 2024 we were told that a further update would be sent directly to all clients. We were advised that there was an internal dispute between the park owner and construction project manager and that it had become a legal matter.
Throughout September to November 2024 your Property Consultant was in contact with you to discuss your concerns and to offer any assistance were possible.
Knight Knox relied on the seller to provide our office with updates, as such we were unable to address any queries from the clients or send out a blanket response as we needed to establish the situation with the seller.
Unfortunately, as legal proceedings progressed, we were unable to obtain any further details, and as a result we could not comment any further or suggest any advice in this regard.
This is not reflective of our investments as a whole and we are incredibly sorry that you, and other buyers were caught up in this.
Yours,
Knight Knox

"Sold me a 'secure' investment now under City of London Police fraud investigation"
In July 2023, Knight Knox consultant Lewis Combe sold me a lodge on the Barncrosh/Barnsoul development in Dumfries and Galloway. I invested £114,900. I have lost all of it.
What I was sold: a "freehold" "luxury 4 bedroom lodge", "completed/ready now for immediate rental income", on a site "unencumbered" by debt. A secure, asset-backed investment paying 9% APR with a five-year buy-back. Mr Combe called it a "guaranteed 8%" return that was "100% secure", and assured me stringent due diligence had been done on a developer of good reputation.
I asked him directly: has the lodge been built? Does the developer hold bankruptcy insurance? He relayed the developer's word and checked nothing.
What I actually bought:
-A lodge that does not exist. No four-bedroom lodges were ever built. Around 30 lodges stand on a site where "completed" lodges were sold to more than 100 investors, some of them twice over (not all by Knight Knox).
-A "ceremonial" certificate. Investors own nothing. No deeds were ever lodged with the Scottish land register.
-A site mortgaged for millions of pounds.
-A developer with a string of failed schemes, under a High Court injunction, dated before my investment, banning him from taking further investment in this project.
-A scheme City of London Trading Standards had already investigated as potentially fraudulent, a year before I invested.
-A web of companies with accounts years overdue, which legal counsel advises is a common signature of fraud.
Knight Knox kept advertising the scheme until June 2024, knowing the developer was in a legal dispute, had stopped paying existing investors and that the landowning company was in administration.
Approximately £10 million of investors' money is unaccounted for. Knight Knox clients are unsecured creditors and will recover nothing from the land sale.
The scheme is now a live City of London Police fraud investigation, Operation Banstead. Numerous arrests have been made, with prosecutions pending. It featured on BBC One's Rip Off Britain (19 November 2025). The Property Ombudsman found in my favour of my complaint against Knight Knox on 13 February 2025, issuing the maximum award.
When investors asked Knight Knox's directors for an urgent meeting, MD Sam Ballard's reply was: "direct questions to the developer" and "please do not keep pressing our Sales Consultants for information. This is a senior management issue and they do not have the answers on the subject".
Senior management has never addressed us. They have never said what due diligence was done, or why an unsecured gamble was sold as asset-backed ownership.
A site visit, a land register search or ten minutes on Companies House would have exposed all of this. Knight Knox boasts "20 years of experience in real estate investment". In my opinion, it put commission before its clients.
Knight Knox took its commission. Its clients lost everything.
Would you trust this firm with your savings?

Steer Clear - Terrible Outcomes for me
I have had a pretty bad experience with every purchase that Knight Know introduced me to.
One went bankrupt after £55K had been invested - with all the investors 100% out of pocket. KK then introduced an insolvency solicitors to the investors who were useless.
Another investment dropped in value from £125K purchase price to £85K a mere 3 years later - so, clearly overpriced initially.
Finally, a third investment that used a conveyancing solicitor recommended by KK - has ended with that firm 'closing down' and £18K of my investments now unaccounted for.
My advice is STEER CLEAR and put any money you have into other saving schemes.

Dear David,
We are very sorry to hear of your experience. We have been in contact with you in the past to ask for your feedback and to offer any assistance, but we did not receive a response from you.
With regards to the Mount Group project. It was a completely unprecedented situation that ourselves and the other agents selling the development found ourselves in and we are incredibly sorry that any of our investors were caught up in the unfortunate situation. We have been trading successfully for 20 years and at the point of selling this investment, and even throughout as it was fully in construction, we had no reason to believe that it would not be completed, as countless others have been before.
Mount Group (the developer) had kept us and the other sales agents in the dark about their situation and we discovered that the site had gone into receivership in January of this year. As soon as we found this out, we engaged the services of a renowned leading UK law firm specialising in these situations and engaged them to act on behalf of all investors to see if there was any recourse available. Once they had been engaged, we informed every investor of the current situation and facilitated the initial meetings. The outcome was of course not the one any of us wanted or anticipated but unfortunately by this stage there was nothing further we could do to assist our investors.
The properties we sell are priced by the developer and are based on the market value in the area at the time. We only decide to market a property to our investors once we are happy that the value of the investment is a genuine reflection of the going market rate. We are sorry to hear that you have not seen the increase that you would desire but this is not an outcome we can control.
With regards to your last comment, it is unfortunate that the solicitors who acted in the exchange of contracts closed. Our office was in contact with you in this matter to provide initial information and to suggest an alternative firm to handle your completion.
We are extremely sorry that you have not had the same positive experience with us that countless other investors have, but this is not reflective of our investments as a whole.
Yours,
Knight Knox.
Fantastic experiance
Despite the apartment's completion being delayed by two years due to COVID, the support team was consistently helpful throughout the project. I'm delighted that the project is now complete, and I’ve received confirmation from my solicitors.
When my initial solicitor's firm unexpectedly closed and I missed important communication from them, Naomi stepped in and went above and beyond to resolve the issue. Her proactive support and efforts in locating my case file and coordinating with another solicitor's firm for completion were invaluable. I truly appreciate her dedication and the peace of mind she provided during a stressful time.
