Report
An excellent service from this local firm. From the very start nothing was too much trouble. The staff, from the receptionists and property manager, to the solicitor handling the legal details, were extremely professional and obliging. They kept me informed at every stage of the process and were very clear in the information they provided. I must give a special thanks to Jim who helped me move the last of my personal effects. He went out of his way in his duties to ensure the property was ready for the new buyers to move in. All in all an excellent service -fast, efficient and very hassle free
