We bought and sold through Bradford & Howley in 2019 and were extremely happy with the service we received from everyone in the Marshalswick office. Gareth and the team were highly knowledgeable, extremely responsive and very patient with all of our questions and requests. Would highly recommend.

Had a very good experience with these guys . Had a property that was hard to sell . They were very patient and nothing was ever to much trouble . Oliver and Gareth kept us informed of any news very quickly and always replied to my emails and phone calls straight away. They eventually sold our property and after service was very smooth.

Bradford & Howley helped us to buy a house in St. Albans in 2020. Excellent property descriptions, fast replies and viewings. They also provided mortgage advisor and solicitor and they all done a great job and managed to complete the purchase even during the lockdown

Bradford & Howley in Marshalswick have just sold our property and have been fantastic from start to finish. Highly professional, attentive, knowledgable, patient and supportive. We experienced a chain breakdown (no fault on their part) and they helped us through it and got us back on track with a new buyer. Both the manager (Gareth) and the assistant manager (Oliver) were brilliant. Their sales progressor Mandy was also very helpful, patient and chased everything daily for us to get us to the point of exchange. We were kept updated throughout. A great team and would use again!

I have recently sold a property with Bradford and Howley (Marshalswick Branch) and I can’t fault the service that I have received. From the moment I asked them to represent my property to the moment of completion, I have had excellent communication from Gareth, Oliver and Mandy. I thoroughly recommend their professional and efficient service.

Bradford & Howley helped me to sell my house in 3 weeks. Just like what they have predicted. I would highly recommend this place, because selling my house was very smooth and painless experience. They are very organized with your sell, always know the progress. They are very friendly and professional.

As a first time buyer I saw a property i liked online with 2 agents, I chose B&H because their detail and quality pictures were much better. Gareth and Oliver at the Marshalswick branch have been fantastic in helping me buy my first place! Always on hand for advice when i had questions and helped me navigate through the daunting process of property buying. I would highly recommend Bradford & Howley as a buyer and would definitely come to them first when I eventually decide to sell!

Bradford & Howley sold our house in 2019. At the time we were still looking for our onward purchase and they worked hard to help us find a property and retain our buyer. Excellent professional service from the whole team, in particular Myles and Mason. The feature which makes B&H stand out from other agents is their proactivity and also that when you call as either a seller or prospective buyer typically any of the team can help with your query. Great teamwork. Would highly recommend.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

We chose B&H after speaking to a number of local agents. Oliver was very professional and had lots of local market knowledge. From the start the whole experience was seamless; from the brochure B&H produced of our house, to liaising with them regarding later viewings and finally negotiating a price, with offers that were put forward. Customer service is at the heart of what they do and that came across at every point. We never felt pushed to reduce our price or accept an offer that didn't suit us - personally I think this sets B&H apart from its competition. They made selling our house (the sale bit at least!) stress free and even enjoyable. I would recommend B&H and Oliver/Gareth at the Marshalswick branch whole-heartedly.

Simply fabulous! We sold and bought through Bradford and Howley and I honestly couldn't fault them. From day one of the process, back in May, meeting Gareth from the Marshalswick office when he came to value our house, right through to completion day in December, every member of the team was helpful, kept us informed of every little detail and went above and beyond in order to ensure a smooth, stress free move. I couldn't recommend them more highly. I'm hoping not to move house again in the near future, but if I did I would certainly use them again! Special mention for Oli and Gareth at the Marshalswick office, you are fabulous and thank you for putting up with my numerous phone calls and visits....you have the patience of saints! Happy New Year to you all!

Avoid Bradford & Howley, as many of the house sale listings are also with Frost & other good ones. Oliver Stirling from the Marshalswick office has been extremely rude on more than one instances. Way he talks has not changed even after I complained to his boss.

Good morning Mr Amin, I really appreciate you taking my phone call this morning and discussing your feelings for 15 minutes. I understand your frustrations and I will certainly be sharing them with Oliver and the rest of our team. I am confident that we can impress you with our approach going forward and find you and your family a home in Marshalswick. We really appreciate that you are willing to still work with Oliver in your property search. If you have any further feedback my direct dial is 01727898152. Regards Liam Howley - Partner

We sold our house through Bradford & Howley in Marshalswick and the process was so easy and professional. They were realistic on price, timeframe etc and we went under offer with our asking price within a week. Highly recommend the company and wish we had been able to purchase through them - I often called them whilst buying for advice which lacked with other agents.
