Helpful, Steph in particular went out of her way to chivvy things along when my solicitors appeared to be dragging their heels. Steph gave me a lot of support with what was, for me, a very stressful purchase.

TrustpilotFirst time buyer experience
As a first time buyer, buying a house on your own is scary stuff! However Joy in the Darlington office was an absolute gem. She kept things moving forward, she responded to queries quickly, she kept me updated on progress and overall the start to finish process was so much easier than I imagined.

TrustpilotAmazing Service and Staff
Andrea and Victoria have been so fantastic throughout my house purchase journey. I’ve very rarely had to chase for updates (unlike some of my friends/family have with other agents!). Always friendly, understanding and willing to chase up solicitors when you need. Can’t thank them both enough for taking the stress out of the process and making it a pleasure.

TrustpilotAlways a "5star service" provided
In my many dealings with the Stockton office, I have always received a "5star service".Despite all of the last 18 months stop/start disturbances, I have found that all members of the team have continued to give their best through these troubled times.All of which I am sure will continue under the guiding hand of Mark as they lay the foundations of the new business.
