Report
I went there today for an appointment to sign an engagement letter and the receptionists were the rudest people Ive ever met. They made me wait outside under the sun at 2pm with 35 degrees even though I was the only client there (and even mocked me saying that i should be glad because it was sunny). The person I was supposed to meet was not in the office and the one who met me didnt know what I was there for and didnt even introduce himself so i had to leave after witnessing such unprofessional behaviour. I really dont understand why they behave like this but Im glad I wont be

There was little/no communication and when I did get through on the telephone I could honestly feel them roll their eyes at me and actually SIGH down the phone. I had to remind myself that I was the customer and I was paying them to complete this job! I was asked by the housing association

I used Sharon Harding for my first house transfer and she was on the ball and had such a good experience I used her again without any consideration of others. I can not comment on others, but she was brilliant in responding within a quick time (1 day at worst) with queries and concerns. She also didn't wait till the end of the process to take on queries from my buyers when I sold again but took proactive action to take them on. Due to how it works, they didn't always express what they were doing with me. But after my first question of what was going on I realised they were on the case and they
