James Loftshouse & The Absolute team have been excellent in exceeding our expectations ! We have worked closely with them on several matters and they consistently deliver to a very high professional standard. We would highly recommend Absolute Services to both prospective vendors and buyers/investors. Sub-Sahara Developments.

We have just sold our house, and I have to say the service from Tina and the team has been amazing, they are very professional, they valued the house accuratley, they kept us informed throughtout the sale and kept the pace going to make it as quick as possible. We are delighted that we used Absolute and would recommend them. We had a high value house and they fitted the bill perfectly. Thank you.
Thanks for the review Julie and well done Tina!

Firstly, I want to say a massive thank you to James. He has gone above and beyond as an estate agent. As a first time buyer, it can be extremely daunting understanding the buying process and legalities. James is very knowledgeable and was happy to explain anything I was unsure of. He was always at the end of the phone or email. James also accommodated multiple viewings and gave sound advice. I cannot recommend James enough. I would also like to thank Kim at Absolute, who was extremely helpful in 'chasing' things up, again nothing was too much. I would highly recommend Absolute and their team. They are professional, punctual and want to give you the best service they can. Thank you again, Lauren-Marie.

We recently purchased a house through Absolute. The team were so helpful, friendly and quick to respond throughout the process. They didn't make us feel rushed or pressured and helped to keep the momentum going when our purchaser's solicitors needed a nudge. James was very accomodating in providing access for additional visits with our builder and also checked the property for us within the hour when we were concerned after local flash flooding - 5* service! All in all I would not hesitate to recommend Absolute and the team to others.
Thanks for the review Jasmine!

Recently completed on buying our first home and were so impressed with Rachael, Kim and the Paignton team. Always really kind, friendly and helpful and responded to emails, even when our of office (which I would never condone, holiday is holiday!) but meant that we always new who to connect with and had our queries answered quickly. Can’t fault the service! Would definitely consider using Absolute if/when we outgrow this place.

Posting on behalf of my parents: Now that the moving is complete and the dust has settled we just wanted to thank you and all your team for the excellent way in which you handled the sale of our flat for us. It felt as if nothing was too much trouble, and we very much appreciated your guidance and willingness to get things done.
Thanks Lisa (& your parents of course)!
