We found Tom Simpson to be very patient and courteous during our house search and recommended him to our family and friends.

I purchased my new home over the past couple of months and really appreciate all the help and support given to me throughout. As a first time buyer I didn't know what the hell I was doing to be very honest, but my main point of contact (Tom Simpson) was always calm and helpful when I needed help. Everyone told me moving home is one of the most stressful things you can do, and yeah it is, but Tom managed to take some of the stress out of it for me Thanks

All I am saying that at approximately 100k of a sale I'd expect more from the sales team. Taking the correct keys to the property the appointment whilst I'm taking time out of work would have been a start! Never seen the likes in any other sales environment in my life and it amazes me how much trust sellers put in these companies. Crazy

I am a conveyancer and James refers work through to me on a regular basis. He's always happy to help progress the transactions and provides a very helpful and hands on approach as an agent. I'd recommend anyone who is buying or selling a property to use James and Whitegates, James will really put the work in to get your transaction completed.

The team in whitegates bootle have been…

The team in whitegates bootle have been amazing, im currently renting a house from them, and all checks are done on time.Previously i was with a different estate agents which i had a bad experience with. So its really refreshing to have an estate agents and landlord care about their tenants and property, and not just about the money. Would definitely recommend this company to any one who is looking to rent.

Sold and bought Whitegates Bootle

We sold and bought through Whitegates. James did our initial appraisal then our case was managed by Tom with some input from James throughout the transaction. The house had multiple viewings booked within hours of it going up and was sold for full asking price which was more than we expected it to be worth within around 3 or 4 days.

Whitegates are nothing but a pleasure…

Whitegates are nothing but a pleasure to deal with. Professional from start to finish. Could not fault any dealings I have had with them over the years, especially with my recent property sale where the staff communication was efficient and I was kept updated regularly throughout in the friendliest of manners from all. Highly recommend 5*
