GoogleI was very impressed with Direct Moves. They were always very friendly and I noted all properties I viewed were well maintained and well chosen. Up till then I had been shown some very unsuitable properties. I can highly recommend and will use them again when I buy in the future.
Dear Janet Firstly, congratulations on the purchase of your coastal apartment! We are so pleased that you have been happy with our service and thank you for your very kind words. Very best wishes Emma and all the team at Directmoves

GoogleVery poor experience.. Drove from Bath to Weymouth today to a viewing appointment (made and confirmed some two weeks ago), but no show by Agent. When we called office to enquire, told that they hadn't been able to make the necessary arrangements. No apology/concern for our wasted time.. Hope vendor is aware.
Dear Tim Thank you for your message and am extremely sorry. It is highly unusual for us not to attend an appointment. I can see that you requested a viewing on 11 feb, then amended your request to 18 February. I will do a full investigation of this, and contact you on Monday with a full explanation. We can see that the lock was changed and the tenant rejected access, for which we are extremely sorry. As an apology we are taking a video for you, which the owner will aid us with access, and this will be sent to you. Kind regards Emma

GoogleWe have to say we are very impressed with Direct Moves of Weymouth. Worked hard selling our property but as problems arose, during the buying and selling process, they took up the challenges and always offered a solution. Even though we where a small chain it did have its moments and it was all sorted in a calm and very professional manner. We would defiantly use there services again.
Dear Mark Thanks so much for your review and thank you for being super calm during the process! It did take a bit longer than I was expecting!! ... hope all goes well on moving day . I have ordered SUN all day! Best regards Emma

GoogleYou would think the customer is always right.......... Unfortunately this is not the case when working with Direct Moves. I did not feel special or appreciated as a first time buyer, and felt like a burden because I wasn't willing to fall into the typical sales trap. They hook you in by falsely advertising prices to later upsell and drive commission for personal gain. Would not recommend
I am saddened to read your review. I am very sorry that your offer was rejected today. With all of our properties, it is the owners decision to accept or reject an offer. The marketing price was an instruction from our client, the seller, which is normal procedure and unfortunately on this occasion your offer was not high enough for the owner to agree to. I am more than happy to discuss this outside a public forum. Best regards Emma Hughes

FacebookI have always doubted these brokers until I met with MR Chris Crypto he changed my whole life in such a manner I never knew i existed. Million thanks to MR Chris Crypto and his broker for trading for me. All I did was to invest $800 and within 7days he made $15,800 profit for me. I have no idea how he did it. You want to be happy and bill free like me, do well reach him on WhatsApp or Email Below.WhatsApp:+1(213)568‑6030 Email:chrscrypto@gmail.com

GoogleFirst class estate agent for Weymouth. They have gone over and beyond for us and they weren't even our agent! Constantly keeping us in the loop and helping with our purchase all the way. Cannot recommend them enough; leaps and bounds ahead of our actually agent who fell down on doing anything for us. Dan, Emma and the whole team, excellent service.
Dear Sarah ..Wow ! So delighted for you and so pleased that you have been happy with us here. It was a marathon wasn’t it! But such a good feeling to know that you are all moving to your desired homes. Wishing you the very best and thank you so much for this review. Emma, Dan and the team ....
