First class! Would give 10 stars if I could! Mike and Phil were exceptional.
Thoroughly professional, understanding, patient, quick to respond to my queries and they took the time to really listen. I found their knowledge of the market exceptional and they regularly provided updates without me needing to ask. Mike gave me valuable advice when I needed it and the whole process from start to finish was faultless. Thank you so much Mike and Phil for wonderful service!

10 out of 10 for Lettings. Everyone I dealt with was professional and helpful and always replied to emails quickly. I wouldn't hesitate to use them if I was a landlord.

Both Mike & Phil were extremely helpful and supportive throughout the sale of our house. From the valuation, house viewings, sale and completion they were both there every step of the way pushing what turned out to be a very long process (due to problems higher up the chain, so no fault of their own). I couldn't recommend them highly enough. We chose Hardwoods because we purchased the same property through them two years ago and at that time they were equally excellent. They obviously are both really passionate about their work and at no point did we have any doubt in them.

I sold my house recently having lived there for 39 years so you can imagine how difficult it was for me. I was so lucky to use Harwoods to carry out the sale. I cannot express how grateful I am to Mike and Phil for their kindness and support throughout the whole procedure. I would highly recommend Harwoods if you are thinking of buying or selling your home.

We would like to thank Harwoods Lettings very much for facilitating the smallest move from Camborne in Cornwall that seemed impossible. Thanks to the kind team, especially Mrs. Wendy, everything has become easier. Thank you very much once again and we recommend Harwoods lettings to everyone. Best
Wish you all the best in the future!!!

We spent months searching for a house and dealt with many estate agents, we were about to give up and then viewed a house with Mike at Harwoods. Right from the offset Mike was very professional, courteous and honest a breath of fresh air compared to previous experiences. He assisted the purchase process, kept us fully informed and was upfront on possible issues. Whether you are buying or selling try Harwoods, we certainly will next time we sell.
