Report
Overall a great agent who provided an excellent service. John at Herts Homes was very professional and friendly and I would definitely recommend him. The service he provided when selling our house was excellent and he made the process very easy. We also bought our new house through Herts Homes and the whole process was managed really well. John was also very helpful and pushed the sale through at the end. The whole service was professional and John was very easy to deal with. I would 100% recommend Herts Homes.
