base property specialists, our East London lettings agency now celebrating its 20th year, was established by property industry veterans An Deckers and Kristjan Byfield. Their journey began in the early 2000s while working together at a Docklands agency. Frustrated at the time by the prevalent industry practices and the lack of transparency, An and Kristjan found common ground in their desire to deliver better service to clients. This shared vision led to the founding of base property specialists in 2004.

From the start, base was built on the principles of transparency, fairness, and client-centric service. An and Kristjan were committed to a service where clear communication, ethical practices, and respect for all stakeholders—be they landlords, tenants, or suppliers—were non-negotiable. Their approach ensured that no information was hidden, and costs were kept fair and transparent. To support this mission, base has always been at the forefront of embracing technology. By integrating PropTech solutions into every aspect of the business, from viewing scheduling to property management, Base has streamlined operations, ensuring that critical information is always accessible and that professionalism remains paramount.

Over two decades, base has weathered economic downturns and global health crises, always guided by a commitment to empathy and understanding in all interactions. This dedication is reflected in our exceptional track record, including maintaining some of the lowest instances of rental arrears in the UK. Earlier this year, we marked our 20th anniversary with a major celebration in Shoreditch, bringing together family, friends, clients, tenants, suppliers, and industry professionals to honour two decades of service excellence.
