We’ve been so impressed with Bradford & Howley at every stage of the process. The quality of the marketing was outstanding, the professional photos, property video and aerial drone shots created showcased our home beautifully. Kerry, Mark and the team were professional, friendly, and a pleasure to deal with. As soon as our property went live, they generated a flurry of interest and we received multiple offers. We secured a sale in just over a week, which feels like a record for the area where sales usually take longer. We couldn’t be happier with the service and outcome , highly recommended!

We just sold our property through Bradford & Howley today, and we are so impressed with Mark, who provided an accurate valuation of the house. He was genuine, highly professional, and an absolute pleasure to deal with. Mark took the time to go through the details of the marketing process with us and offered great reassurance. Once we agreed to put the house on the market with B&H, he arranged for a photographer to come within 48 hours to take beautiful photos and a video of the property, including stunning drone shots. Within two weeks of listing the house, Mark arranged the first group viewing, and we received our first offer immediately, followed by a second offer the very next day. We were absolutely delighted to receive two offers in such a short period. Mark was excellent in the negotiation process and ensured we achieved the price we were hoping for. We couldn’t be happier with the service we received from Mark and his team, and we can’t recommend them highly enough to anyone looking to sell their property for maximum value.

When we decided to put our house on the market we really were not sure who to sign on with. However we managed to select 4 local agents to speak with, one of whom was Mark at Bradford and Howley. From the moment I made contact with him, he was kind, understanding and reassuring - most unlike estate agents we have had dealings with in the past! Mark visited our house, went through the marketing process and offered us the reassurance and guidance we were looking for. There were never any hint of any aggressive selling techniques, simply a friendly and thorough approach as to how Bradford and Howley were going to market our property. I particularly like the fact that Bradford and Howley were members of the Guild of Property Professionals, the only estate agents in St. Albans allowed this privilege and the additional benefits and reassurances this title comes with. Once we gave the go ahead for Bradford and Howley to sell our property, within 1 week the photographer had been round, viewings were in place and a solicitor secured. And true to their word, within 5 days of putting our house on the market, we had our first offer on the table, ending up with the luxury of 4 offers from the first 7 viewings! Mark was also extremely pro-active in helping us with the properties we were looking to purchase. Once we had narrowed our options down, he did a search on the properties we were considering to find out their selling history in order to give us a good idea of their current value and what to offer on our chosen property. From signing on the dotted line to accepting an offer on our house, the whole process had taken just 3 weeks so thank you to Mark, Kerry and the team who have got us so far so quickly. You feel like you are our friends who we can come to for help and advice - certainly not the traditional estate agent image! Lets hope you guys can keep up the good work and get to completion within the 6 to 8 week time frame we have agreed! In the meanwhile a big thank you to you all for your efforts so far!

We'd like to thank Mark, Kerry and Cairen for all their efforts in selling my mothers house. They were always positive and there to help when needed.

We used Bradford & Howley to sell our house and highly recommend them. We found everyone really easy to deal with, friendly and helpful, from Mark's valuation, Kerry and Wendy helping sort viewings (both of our property and ones we were looking to buy) through to Ciaren as our sales progressor who was on it and kept the communication flowing. Thank you folks, Merry Christmas!

I recently had the pleasure of working with the team at Bradford & Howley, Marshalswick, as part of my ongoing purchase. From start to finish, the service provided was exceptional. Mark, my main point of contact, was incredibly helpful, knowledgeable, and always quick to respond to any questions or concerns I had. But what was really important for me - it was Mark's flexibility and willingness to help me and give me chance to view property at times when his own calendar was booked. I also want to mention Kerry and Wendy, who were both fantastic and contributed to our path to this purchase. Overall, I’m extremely satisfied with the service I received, and I would highly recommend Bradford & Howley to anyone looking for expert and dedicated support. Thank you again to the whole team!
