Review for Sarah Hollick, Bradford & Howley, Harpenden Sarah has been absolutely super-efficient from start to finish with the purchase of a new little house for our family, our mother-in-law’s home following the loss of her husband. Throughout the entire process, Sarah was not only highly professional but genuinely caring and compassionate. She understood the sensitivity of the situation and handled everything with kindness, patience, and respect, which meant the world to us as a family. She went above and beyond at every stage, always keeping us informed and making what could have been a very difficult time feel far more manageable. We truly couldn’t have asked for better support. We would wholeheartedly recommend Sarah and Bradford & Howley to anyone looking for an estate agent who combines efficiency with real human care.

A world apart from your stereotypical agent. The B&H team went above and beyond before they even set foot in the door. They were knowledgable, personable, and researched the property as well as gathered all our input thoughtfully to present our house in a way which got the right (proceedable!) buyers viewing and offering within days. Their advice throughout was sensible, market-ready and their service was second to none throughout.

Cairen has kept us informed throughout the process (as it has been long and drawn out). She was helpful and kept us up to date. She also worked with other agents and solicitors to find a solution to any issues.

Having done 40+ viewings in Harpenden, it was our first contact with Bradford and Howley that led us to getting our dream home in the area. Right from booking a viewing and visiting for the first time up until completion the team were absolutely brilliant and really felt as invested in it as we were. Special mentions to Sarah, Liam and Cairen who were great throughout the process and are clearly a cohesive team, everyone was always well informed. We couldn’t recommend them enough!

I found the Team at the Marshalswick Office, incredibly 'on the ball' throughout the sales process, knowledgeable about my specific instruction, very informative and pro-active. I would have no hesitancy in using this particular Estate Agent Office again and recommend potential customers to at least a preliminary discussion with a view to a new instruction and experience what this professional and dedicated Team has to offer!

We recently sold our home and purchased a new one through Bradford & Howley, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. The sale was challenging and fraught with issues, but the team was absolutely fantastic throughout the entire process. Their professionalism, persistence, and clear communication ensured that we achieved a positive outcome despite the hurdles. A special mention goes to Sarah, Cairen, and Liam, who were exceptional every step of the way. They were proactive, supportive, and always available to answer questions and provide reassurance when things got tough. Their dedication and expertise made a stressful experience so much easier, and we are truly grateful for their hard work. If you’re looking for an estate agent who genuinely cares and goes above and beyond, Bradford & Howley is the one to choose. Thank you for helping us move into our new home!
