MARSHALL Bobby We have been with Harrison, Lavers & Potburys for almost nine years, during this time we have always liaised with Bobby Marshall. We have found Bobby to be very professional, courteous and a pleasure to deal with. It is always a delight to have Bobby’s company when he arrives to make an inspection. Bobby is a very affable and considerate professional. Andrew & Sylvie Lawrence 23 Alexandria Road Sidmouth EX109HD 27th January 2023

I recently used Harrison Portbury and Lavers to purchase my new flat. My main contact was Tony Sutherland. He kindly helped in all aspects of my purchase. I can highly recommend HP&L for the purchase of your property. Darren

I have had no dealings with this company except to ask advise on a property, in Sidmouth to rent . Admittedly the listing says no dogs, but it was a short term let and I thought the question could at least be asked I found the lady letting agent rude and very short with me (well it is Monday morning!) and not at all understanding that we could be a client as well We come extremely well qualified to rent and it's a slight on the letting company to have an agent so off as you could feel her frown and displeasure at my question down the phone ..And being in customer service myself for 30 years trust me I know! a complete let down to the company

Tony Sutherland was always a pleasure to deal with. He responded to queries punctually, offered his professional opinion clearly, and remained positive and calm at all stages of the process of selling two flats.

I can highly recommend H L & P when it comes to selling a property. Personal reasons made the process of sale particularly sad for me but the support from all the team have been exceptional. A small friendly local independant company who go above and beyond from the early stages to completion. I will forever be grateful to them.

Harrison & Lavers and Potburys have handled our 2 rental lettings for over 14 years. We cannot speak more highly of them for their professionalism, helpfulness, dedication and advice. We have never had a gap between tenants and the majority of these have always been long term. The director, Bobby Marshall and his great team Manda and previously Fiona have always deal with any problems (mostly everyday issues ie boiler, plumbing etc) quickly and efficiently. Most importantly they have always kept us informed and up to date. As we live 300 miles away this has been absolutely essential that any problems are tackled immediately. Bobby and his team provide great customer care and go the extra mile! We would highly recommend. Thank you HSPPositiveProfessionalism, Value

Just coming to the end of a six month tenancy in one of Harrison Lavers & Potburys properties. A short term let whilst I looked for a property to buy. I began the tenancy right at the start of the lock down and so was trapped here without my family (though I cannot think of a better place to be trapped than Sidmouth!) I cannot praise Bobby Marshall enough. He was professional, so kind and helpful, and he really did go the extra mile to help me. It was a difficult time for me being caught here in Sidmouth on my own and Bobby was very supportive. I didn't really have any issues with the property, just a couple of minor every day things, e.g. flush on loo; Bobby responded immediately and made sure these issues were sorted out really quickly. I also found all the staff in the office in Sidmouth very friendly and welcoming; certainly the best Estate Agents in Sidmouth (in my opinion!) If you are looking for a property to rent, I highly recommend Harrison Lavers & Potburys. A big thank you to Bobby Marshall especially. Mrs S DuncanPositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

My sister and I have just sold our mothers home after her passing away. All members of staff have been considerate and professional. We received feedback after each viewing and solid professional advice through negotiations with a buyer. Towards the end of the process feedback was weekly and provided information on how the chain was progressing. Thank you to the whole team with special thanks to Tony. With kind Regards Cheryl and CarolynPositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

The process of identifying suitable tenants for Old Mill House was handled very professionally and in a timely manner; this resulted in there being only a very short period between our previous tenants departing and new tenants taking up residence. Bobby's advice regarding the amount of rent we should charge was also very helpful.

All the staff have been helpful as I negotiated a difficult period of selling and buying. In particular Jay was courteous and ready to advise as he helped me to prepare the bungalow for sale. As a result we had a quick and satisfactory result.

I genuinely wouldn't use any other agent now if I'm to go through a sale again. Tony Sutherland has been such a help to me, nothing was ever too much trouble, professional throughout and so pleasant. If I could give more stars, I would.

Extremely professional service, fast communication and educated advisers. I highly recommend Bobby Marshall and Manda Harold. They ensured i found a rental property within an extremely short time period through fast correspondence, outstanding proficiency and amazing people skills. If you experience any issues during your contracted period, the agency ensures you're made aware of how to approach them. I've experienced this first hand.

I can't praise HLP high enough. It was a difficult sale, as our mother had died, so there was a lot of emotion involved, but they looked after us from beginning to end.

After two days of unpacking, we are sat having a drink in our new home. We love it, the whole family already feel settled. We sold our house and purchased our new one through HLP, the whole process was smooth and stress free even doing all of this through a pandemic! Every single member of the team were fantastic, nothing was ever too much trouble. We can not recommend highly enough. Thank you so very very much.
