Lovely and professional people to deal with which made the buying experience much easier, several points of contact and they ring back when they said they would.

The team at Ferndown were really helpful even though they were not acting for me as the purchaser. They followed things up for me with the vendor and were very eager to ensure purchase went through. Charlotte, Enzo, Adam and Brian were all really friendly and i would look at using them in the future if i needed to.

Pat Downey and the team were great, very helpful. We loved the house we saw but loved another one even more. I'd recommend this team to anyone looking to buy or sell a house.

We recently had our property valued by Pat from the Ross on Wye branch and went ahead with the pre-sales process. Halfway through, we decided to stay at our property as some land came up for sale next to the house (which is what we were …

We were impressed with Fine and Country's offer and really appreciated Patrick's knowledge of the market and his interest in and understanding of our quirky property. His visit was friendly, thorough and unhurried. The company's fees are a bit higher than other agents but the quality and breadth of their marketing looks excellent.

Fine & Country in Ross are an exceptional estate agent. They fully engaged in and understood what we were trying to achieve and the issues we faced in selling our property. Pat worked very hard to find solutions rather than just suggesting the price was wrong and was instrumental in providing a plan that enabled us to secure a deal that worked.

Fine and Country are a joy to deal with when selling your home. They work tirelessly and make the whole process as easy as possible. They do all the following up so you are never left wondering or chasing. I can’t speak highly enough of Abbie and Alice, they really make you feel like they have your best interests at the forefront of their minds and they are really focused and efficient. Also, their enthusiasm is incredible, really impressed.

Have been using Paul and the team to rent my property for about a year now and they have always been super helpful, reasonable and attentive when looking after both my side of things and the tenants. Could not fault their service and value for money. It’s definitely not a one size fits all with these guys and I’ve always felt reassured in their approach to understand each client/property/tenant and their individual requirements. Thank you GE team!
