The Derby John German branch did an excellent job of advising us on pricing strategy allowing the sale to be completed at our offer price rather than jumping to accept a much lower offer. The sales progress team provided support and timely intervention to move the completion of the sale in a smooth process.

From the first contact to the last, we were pleased with the friendliness and professionalism of all the staff at John German. We always received prompt responses to any queries we had regarding the house sale, and they helped us deal with the process, which can sometimes be frustrating and time consuming. We would particularly like to thank Jessica Norton for her patience and perseverance with the sale. She kept us hopeful that we would see a satisfactory conclusion, which we did. Other people who helped us were Vicky and Phil from the Ashbourne office. Thanks to you all, and we are pleased we chose John German.

John German are quite simply the best estate agent I've used, and I've used a few over the years. They are professional, hard-working, friendly and always very responsive. They provided what I thought was a high valuation, but it turned out to be absolutely correct (several other agents provided lower valuations, some significantly so). I could not fault JG. Well done on a great service!

We needed to view a property out of work hours, and Harry the agent was very helpful and made the appointment at 5:30pm. Harry also contacted the vendor while we viewed the property so we had a quick response to our offer. Thank you again Harry.
