I had such a positive experience working with Will Shakeshaft-Gee at Dacre, Son & Hartley of Burley in Wharfedale. Will is an absolute gem; so patient, helpful and genuinely kind. Nothing was ever too much trouble and he really took the time to understand what I was looking for. I’ve found my dream house! His communication has been excellent throughout and I have felt informed and supported. I have been incredibly impressed by his professionalism and care. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Will and the team at the Burley office. Thank you ☺️

What a fantastic team Will, Lesley and Sally are! They have kept us updated throughout the whole process. A special thanks to Sally. I will miss our friendly ‘weekly’ chats and thank you for respecting my Grandma and Grandad’s house and seeing it through to completion. We know it will make a great home for someone… and you understood this was the brief from day one.

We've been looking at houses for months, the majority have been with this agency. We were quite fussy with our requirements which resulted in a lot of viewings without us making an offer. This didn't dampen the enthusiasm of the agents. They kept looking and eventually found us a property that we liked. Rebecca and Lesley knew all the details about the properties and were able to answer all of our questions as they showed us around. They also knew the surrounding areas very well and gave us a lot of local information. Throughout the purchase process Rebecca has been very helpful, especially when we had questions that weren't important enough to go through the solicitor.

I was searching for a property on behalf of my parents who were relocating. I found Dacres to be by far the most helpful and professional. Their level of service is second to none. Rebecca and Lesley both showed me around properties, and Will negotiated the sale. All went above and beyond to make the process as stress free an easy as possible. After experiences with other agents, it was a relief to purchase through Dacres, who gave a genuine and professional service.

What can you say about a mother and son team-Lesley and Will! Exemplary, thats what you can say, beyond the call of duty, quite genuinely so, nothing too much trouble, pleased to answer questions, did all the hard work of selling my beloved father's property, which needless to say was problematic! The house sale was delayed due to corona lockdown and Lesley and Will sorted it all out, with the house been sold at full asking price on a sought after street, namely 17 Holme Grove. You couldn't wish to meet nicer and genuine people as Lesley and Will, as some estate agencies have a reputation of having a non-caring attitude, however I take the view being a typical Yorkshireman ''Speak as you find and mean what you say''! I would not hesitate to recommend Lesley and Will without reservation, if I had to move or even consult them with their breadth and depth of knowledge of the property market, which in many cases is a minefield and that is testimony to their professionalism! Fantastic!!!

Dealing with Dacres was an incredibly positive experience for me from start to finish. Buying a house in this current environment is very tricky however they were more than happy to assist with any queries and offered help and guidance throughout the entire process. A very proactive estate agent ensuring my house purchase went through efficiently and with ease. Would recommend to all.

As a first time buyer, I was a little nervous about buying my first home. Will put my mind at ease from the moment he showed me around the property. He exuded genuine professionalism and a genuine desire to help rather than pushing for a sale. Will answer all my questions and kept me informed throughout the buying process. He’s a genuine asset to Dacre Son and Hartley, I’d highly recommend speaking to him if you’re ever looking to buy/ sell a home.

I recently bought a house through this branch of Dacres. Will, Lesley, and Rebecca are all superb. They are responsive, patient, honest, and extremely knowledgeable about the area and properties they are selling. They went above and beyond to help the purchase go through smoothly. Thanks to their hard work, the purchase has been a stress free experience - something I doubt many buyers can say. Should I ever be looking to sell/buy another property I wouldn’t hesitate to use Dacres in Burley. Thank you all for your help!

I really can’t thank the team at Dacre Son & Hartley Morley enough for the way in which they recently handled the sale of my late mums property. From the initial valuation all the way through to completion they were professional, proactive and extremely supportive. But more importantly they cared - about mum and dads home, and about the family. Communications were excellent, honest and nothing was too much trouble. I have moved homes a few times over the years and I have never experienced such a caring and professional service from an Estate Agent. Would highly recommend without question.
