Fantastic customer service, always at hand when I need! With Chris Fulcher's help all the documents were sorted smoothly and quickly. He is highly responsive and friendly. I would totally recommend Abbotts.

We purchased our home through Abbott's in December 2019. Whilst generally the service they provided to us as purchasers was fine, we were very unhappy that we were told they could propose our offer to the seller until they had carried out an "affordability check". This check turned out to be an appointment with a mortgage broker working for the chain where he took no information which would ascertain whether we could afford the property or not. The mortgage advisor was very pushy in regards for me to arrange a meeting with him to complete a mortgage application which would be been at around £500 cost to us, whilst I initially agreed I then withdrew this meeting after finding a better offer direct from a lender myself. Ultimately this just felt like a tactic to try and force us to use their in-house mortgage advisor. After this all things went smoothly enough, it's a shame that our experience was tainted by feeling as if we were being taken advantage off as Abbott's knew we were first time buyers. We would not use them again on this basis.

The lettings staff at Abbotts have been like a breath of fresh air, providing an extremely efficient and friendly service. From our first dealings with Dan, then input from Chris and finally Genevieve taking the process through to tenant occupation, keeping us in the loop every step of the way and responding to any questions very promptly. We look forward to our dealings with optimism, thank you again.

They proved a little difficult to get a hold of, causing a few days delay (which given the housing market can make a big difference and is significant), but once we managed to talk to people they were mostly very good, informative and helpful

This agency is very good, does not disappoint. From finding a place, prepare the agreement and move into the property, everything was done smoothly and with clarity.

I recently moved into a new place and used Abbotts in Bury. Gemma and Kerry we're very professional and helpful. The property was beautiful and the move in process was easy. I'll recommend Abbotts to anyone I know on the market for a new place.

We had a great experience. David came and did a covid friendly meeting. Gave us a fair valuation. They were so patient with us as we were wanting to do some upgrades first. The pictures/videos that were done, were great and to a high standard. The communication between Jack, Patrick and David was brilliant with confirmations of viewings in both email and text message. We will definitely be recommending to all house movers.

From my viewing to completion Amanda was brilliant. She kept me up to date with progress throughout my purchase and was quick to come back when I had questions. I felt that I was valued and would highly recommend dealing with Amanda Nealon when purchasing your next home. 5* Samantha
