Both Carla and Chantal have been amazing from start to finish. Chantal advised us on which solicitors would be quickest for our sale which turned out to be a great recommendation and Carla was fantastic to deal with throughout. Always on the end of the phone or an email away. Carla chased our buyers solicitors every day to help speed up the process of our sale. After our flat was on the market for a year with another agent and with very little interest, Hegarty's took fresh photos and sold the property within a month or so of it going on the market with them. Thank you, I could not recommend highly

Excellent service ! Carla was always friendly and professional and answered my questions in language I could understand- No jargon. I would highly recommend Hegartys.

From the very first contact with this company (shannon) I was impressed with the excellent customer service and professionalism. Then the valuation of the 'leaving property" was done respectfully during the pandemic and cognisant of my elderly parents. During the purchase of a property that was for sale with them they (carla) kept me updated at every step of the way- more often than not more than our solicitors which enabled me to chivvy things along. I commented several times that I was grateful for their contact, updates, apprachability and overall professional customer service. Recommend

They are dealing with the buying of my new property. Seem to be doing a great good job. Can't give them 5 stars as the sale is not yet complete
