From the moment I met Ryan I knew he was going to be, by far, the most suitable estate agent to sell my property. His knowledge of the local area, friendly manner, honesty and integrity shone through compared to other estate agents that I had met with. His enthusiasm on how we should promote and when we should market the property was spot on and within 24hrs of it going on sale we had several offers. Ryan, Ellie and Lexi make a great team and kept me informed throughout the whole process. There were a couple of hiccups along the way with our buyer but this in no way fazed any of them and they remained calm and confident that the sale would continue. They delivered everything, as promised, and more. Extremely impressed. They are a lovely, professional, local firm that deserves to be recognised for their outstanding efforts. I would have no hesitation to use Ryan James Estate Agents again in the future and would definitely recommend to anyone who needs help selling their property. Well done to you all and again thank you.

We could not recommend Ryan and his team enough. They were very thorough, supportive and informative - Ryan and Lexi were both so friendly and helpful from start to finish! They made the process of listing straight forward and stress-free, including appointments for viewings. Although our sale didn't work out (our buyers pulled out just before Christmas), both Ryan and Lexi offered a lot of support with this sensitive news, each still being committed to help where they could. In summary, if you're looking for a considerate, professional, respectful and accurate service, this is the estate agent for you - we would not hesitate to come here again. Thank you both so much, looking forward to working with you again in the near future!

Absolutely fantastic service. We had a bit of a nightmare sale with buyers messing us around and Ryan James were always there to help and get use sorted. We could not be happier with the service, they were always there to help, really approachable and an excellent service. Constantly in touch and seeing what they can do to help. We switched from Carvers and can honestly say the service we received from Ryan James and the team was above and beyond. What it should be like.

We switched to Ryan James after a very slow start with another agency, who unfortunately we felt were lacking motivation. In less than 1 week with Ryan James, the house has been sold! Absolutely amazing! We could not be more thrilled with Ryan, Gill and Lauren! They have been outstanding, communicative, honest and reliable. Their recommendations for conveyancing and mortgage services have also been great and we are so happy to now be moving forward. Can not fault them - I only wish we instructed them sooner! Best agent in the local area.

I switched to Ryan James after a few months of being on the market with another local estate agents, who I was not fully satisfied with for various reasons. Within a week of being on the market, I accepted an offer. All the staff are personable and approachable, and know their stuff to be able to β€˜advise’ as well as sell your property. Definitely recommend!

Can’t praise the team enough. My property was sold within weeks. The pictures taken by Ryan were amazing! He really took the time to show the best of each room. Ellie contacted me weekly with stats on viewings and kept me updated with any enquiries, bookings and viewings. Until the last day she kept in touch and made the process so smooth and my mind at ease. The team really do sell your property and deserve the recognition. They really are a Step above other agents I have used for viewings and selling property’s. Thank you

Ryan James were our vendors’ estate agents, and honestly they were just incredible. It was not only clear how hard they work for their clients, from the first viewing all the way through to completion, but they also went truly above & beyond to make the process so much easier and less anxiety inducing for us as buyers. We love our new home so much that we can’t ever envisage moving again, but if we do, we won’t hesitate to use Ryan James next time!

Can’t recommend Ryan James estate agents enough - they are amazing! From coming out to value, arranging viewings and helping us negotiate they were fab. But where they really came into their own was after we accepted our offer. They stayed in regular contact with me, our buyer and all the solicitors in the chain to make sure things were progressing smoothly - and we ended up moving within 9 weeks of the house going on the market. Thank you for everything! X

Ryan james estate agents were so helpful I couldn't ask for more help with my first house sale. Always there 7 days a week with any reassurance and help I could ever ask for to make me feel comfortable and confident that everything would run smoothly. I can't thank them enough for everything they have done for us in our house sale

Good experience buying a home through Ryan James, great communication throughout. Gill as the main point of contact was a great help the past few months getting the completion over the line.

I cannot thank Ryan and his team enough for the support and help they have me recently when I needed to sell my dad's house. From day one they have handled things with tact and sensitivity as well as a first class degree of professionalism. When Ryan first appraised the property he was cheerfully optimistic that it would sell quickly and he was right! His sales negotiator, Ellie deserves a special mention because she has been absolutely brilliant in keeping me up to date throughout the marketing and sale of the property. I wish you all continued success in the future and thank you again for everything you've done. Andrea Storey

I would 100% recommend Ryan James Estate Agents to anyone looking to buy or sell a house. I have been on both ends of the chain and can vouch for Ryan James Estate Agents from both sides! My house was on the market a matter of days and offered after only one viewing. Ryan & the team are super helpful and listing my house for sale couldn’t have been any easier.

I cannot fault Ryan or any of the staff. Ellie and Lexi were both fantastic and made the whole process of selling our home so much easier and calmer. They got our home on the market within days and the photos were very professional. Best of all they sold our home in only a WEEK! Thank you so much Ryan James Estate Agents!

I had my house on the market for almost 4 months in 2020 with 2 major Estate Agents and had a handful of viewings (most of whom werent in a position to even be looking). I took it off the market and readvertised with Ryan in February. House went on Rightmove on the Sunday night, I had 4 viewings on the Monday and three asking price offers on the Tuesday. The house ended up selling for over the asking price in less than 48 hours. Outstanding service.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

Ryan James estate agents were brilliant from start to finish with the very quick sale of our home. Upfront about costs, great with keeping us informed and there to support anything we might need, 7 days a week. I can't thank them enough for the help and efficiency they gave us. I would definitely recommend.
