GoogleMyself and my partner have had nothing but good service from Jan Forster Low Fell all the way through our house purchase process. Often we was left in the dark by other parties involved with the purchase but these ladies and gents were able to offer us that insight going above and beyond to reassure us. Karen in particular was extremely helpful and should I ever need to deal with an estate agents in the future it would certainly be this fantastic group of individuals I go to. Thank you! Aidan & Julia

GoogleGreat service and communications from Jan Forster in Low Fell. From initial meeting and valuation, they were a pleasure to deal with and kept us up to date with all aspects of the sale as it progressed. We will definitely be using them again
5/5
GoogleI chose to Jan Forster for my flat sale and I was extremely glad to use them as my estate agent. From start to finish Karen and Andrew showed professionalism, expert local knowledge, flexibility, and were worth every penny. I’ve dealt with other local estate agents and they blow them out the water. I was able to trust Karen with being able to work on my best interest, and her advice from listing at the right price to get a quick sale, to her patience and ability to chase and help push to completion at the end was incredibly valuable. Would highly recommend over any other agent in the area.

GoogleMyself and my partner have just bought a house via Jan Forster, as first time buyers. Karl was our main point of contact throughout the buying process. He was really quick to respond to our questions, provided key updates when necessary and always had a polite and professional attitude. He played an active and key role in driving the process forwards, meaning we completed in just over two months. Thanks Karl!
