From start to finish my experience with Alex Smith was positive, professional and knowledgeable about the housing market in Hodge Hill. Excellent communication with Amanda who never failed to return a call or email. When there was an issue David stepped in and resolved them quickly without a fuss. I recommend Alex Smith & Co to anyone selling in Hodge Hill.

Massive thank you to everyone at Alex-Smith estate agents, especially to David whose professionalism and expertise shone through at every stage of the buying/selling process and Amanda who managed our many queries and handled all of the viewings.

Alex Smith ~~different with the rest. ( not like some estate agents,say how good they are but once properly in their hands ~~TOTALLY RUBBISH as I experienced before) Can trust when give them the house keys .they did bring lots customers to view my house. Very patient as every time someone want to view the property, they let you know before hand. But you do get lots tyre kicker. And some of them even want to buy it in half price. Can recommend this company to friends.
