FacebookShane from Forbes has been amazing throughout our purchase journey. From Day one any time we needed answers about the house he had the answers and if he didn't he would go out of his way to come back to you. Rose is also brilliant so helpful especially with the knowledge of contractors she has. I would highly recommend these if they are that good at helping me buy id say they are just as good for selling.

GoogleWe recently sold our home and purchased our new one through Forbes & Boyle, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From start to finish, Shane was absolutely fantastic, professional, friendly, and always willing to go the extra mile. Nothing was ever too much trouble for him, and he kept everything running smoothly, even when things got a little stressful.
His communication was excellent throughout, keeping us updated every step of the way and making the whole process feel easy and well-organized. It’s clear he genuinely cares about his clients and takes pride in doing a great job.
We’re now happily settled in our new home, and it’s all thanks to Shane and the team at Forbess & Boyle. We’d highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell a property, first-class service from start to finish!

GoogleJust sold our family home. We choose Forbes auctioneers and Shane was the auctioneer selling our house. He is very professional and helpful and diligent. It was a difficult emotional time letting 50 years of family history go. But Shane was hands on and made it very easy always aware of our emotional needs . He took the hard work and stress away from us. He was extremely helpful and friendly and if in the future I was selling property id insist on Shane being the man for the job. Thanks Shane job well done 👏

GoogleI really couldn’t recommend the lovely people at Forbes Boyle enough. Robert, Rose and the team went above and beyond to help us find a fantastic rental property. My partner and I were finding it difficult to find a place and Robert and the team swooped in and saved the day just as our old lease expired. We are very grateful for your help and we really enjoy staying at your property. Thanks

GoogleI recently had the pleasure of working with Forbes Boyle to sell my rented property in Swords, and I could not be more satisfied with the experience. From the moment I contacted Robert Forbes, I felt a sense of professionalism and care. He promptly arranged a meeting that suited my schedule, coming to my workplace, which was incredibly convenient. Once the process began, Shane Doyle was assigned to me, and he truly made my real estate journey stress-free and enjoyable. His extensive local knowledge and professionalism were evident throughout, and I appreciated how he managed all aspects of the sale with ease and expertise.
Shane's relaxed and friendly demeanour put me at ease immediately, especially as he dealt directly with my tenant to arrange viewings. His excellent communication skills kept me informed at every step of the process, and his mindfulness and commitment to client satisfaction went above and beyond my expectations. I would wholeheartedly recommend Forbes Boyle to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and personable auctioneer agent in Dublin. Working with Shane was a delight, and I am thrilled with the quick and successful outcome of my property sale.

GoogleWhile we were looking for our first home, we had some negative experiences with estate agents. However, even from a buyer's perspective, Forbes Boyle were excellent from the initial viewing to sale agreed and beyond.
Robert and Marc were both great to deal with and kept in constant communication with us throughout the sale, right up until we collected our keys today. Thanks again!

GoogleShane is a gem! Once we chose to go with Forbes Boyle Shane never stopped working to get our house sold and helped us to get decorators to get it in the market. Kept communicating with me and reassured us throughout the process. Got a really nice price for our house too. Thanks again!

GoogleI bought my first home through Forbes Boyle Property and they went out of their way to make things as smooth as possible. My agent Shane Doyle was always available and couldn’t have been more helpful. As a first time buyer I was new to the process and Shane was always available to explain and put my mind at ease. I really felt like he went the extra mile.

GoogleRecently purchased a property through Forbes Boyle and had the pleasure of dealing with Rob as the estate agent. He was very friendly and very genuine (something that I found lacked in other estate agents, as I had had some negative experiences previous to this!) Rob was extremely helpful throughout the process and offered continous support to keep things moving during all stages of the sale.

FacebookForbes and Boyle have been looking after our property for the last number of months since we moved out of Ireland. They have taken the worry and hassle out of renting our property. In particular, Christine has been very professional and efficient in dealing with all aspects of the property management and issues that the tenants have had and in executing what we have requested. We are very satisfied with their excellent service and recommend them, particularly for someone who is remote.

GoogleHad the pleasure of working with Marc and Robert on the sale of my property in south Dublin. From the start I felt confidence that I was in good hands. We had the conversation about what was needed in terms of work on the property to help with the sale, the advertising was very well developed, and they are open to feedback that was acted quickly also. During the viewing and sales process I received plenty of updates about dates viewing and next steps. We had an open conversation about the offer and Marc had updated information about the market and the buyer to help us to accept the offer. Really felt supported with my questions answered quickly. Thanks for all the help!
