Tabby was great throughout the whole process. Even when no significant updates were available tabby would call with the latest status of the purchase of our house. I would recommend using the birkenshaw office if you’re considering purchasing a house.

A personable and efficient team who kept us informed

We picked Robert Watts to sell an elderly relative's house, as they had done a great job on a previous [very similar] occasion - and we weren't disappointed! From the moment John [Watts] came to value the property, right up to the final completion day [only 11 weeks later], all communications were prompt, relevant and delivered by a team who clearly cared about the process. The fact that Robert Watts also offered a 'link' to a local solicitor made the entre sale process simpler - which was important with an 86 year-old vendor now living in a Care Home. Oh, and we shouldn't forget that the property sold FOR THE ASKING PRICE to only the second person to view it ! Excellent performance !!

Tabby could not have done more for us

It took myself and my boyfriend a whole year to get into our perfect house and this was sometimes very stressful and frustrating. Tabby Hickling was absolutely brilliant and kept Rob and I in the picture throughout the whole year. She sympathised, understood and always remained professional and calm even when I think her patience was tested as well as our own! This is our first ever dealings with Robert Watts but after our experience working with them, in particular Tabby, I would happily recommend them to anybody. I cannot thank her enough and we are two very happy and thankful homeowners now. It was all well worth the wait. Leanne and Robert x

You are so correct Igor that it can be stressful when certain parties in the transaction are not helpful but we do feel communication is vital and it’s always great to hear when we’ve done a good job. Thanks for instructing us and good look with your future plans.

Always on the ball

We purchased a property through Robert Watts. Rebecca Hey was brilliant. If I had a query she got back to me in super quick time - usually within 5 - 10 mins. I never had to chase them for anything, which was SUCH a refreshing change in this day and age. If Rebecca wasn't in the other ladies Tabby & ? (sorry cannot remember name) were equally as good at getting answers to my queries. I give them 100/100 for customer service. Rebecca & her colleagues are a credit to Robert Watts.

Hard working from start to finish

Sold our house within 10 days of it going on the market. Great first visit from John who took a lot of time to get the photos and layout right. Really supportive and knowledgeable. The team managed the offer process so well, increasing the initial offer by 20k. Good weekly progress reports. If ever you think of doing this yourself for less trust me when I say using an estate agent like Robert Watts is worth every penny. They got us a great deal, managed the process so smoothly and we ended up with a much improved asking price offer through their expertise. Can't recommend Robert Watts highly enough.

Fantastic service and great to deal with

We recently purchased our new house through Robert Watts in Birkenshaw and were highly impressed with Tabby. Fantastic service from start to finish. Tabby was always available to speak to and went above and beyond to get everything sorted. Very pro-active and always knew exactly where we were in the process. Towards the end of the process we had regular progress updates from Tabby so we knew what was happening and she ensured all other parties where up to date which was a great help as our solicitors weren't very forthcoming. Thanks for all your help Tabby!

John · 17 May 2016

Agent replied · 22 July 2016

Tabby was fantastic

This was my first house purchase as a single buyer and the agent I dealt with was very helpful. Tabby explained everything to me and constantly kept me informed of the progress of both my purchase and the sellers progress. In my opinion she went above and beyond with her service and I am very grateful for all her efforts. My daughter and I are now very happy in our new home.
