GoogleOur recent house purchase came after a long and protracted sale of our property. Throughout the process Sam and the team at Fine and Country were always there to help and get the move across the line. In particular, Sam's help and patience were key to the move finally happening. Outstanding!

GoogleThe service we received from Fine and Country was excellent they were always helpful and answered us promptly with any problems we had. A special mention must go to Samantha Gill who went above and beyond to get our purchase over the line. I can't recommend her highly enough. She was an absolute pleasure to deal with and was always available to sort out any queries we had.

GoogleSold our house in January 25 having had three potential
Buyers view in first week. Sam from Fine and country Bovey Tracey was excellent.
There with reassurance when needed, has a wealth of knowledge having been in business for over 20 years.
Although fees for selling are always a big sum, Sam saved us more than cost as advised where to peg acceptance on offers given.
Her colleagues in Bovey office, Zoe and Olivia complete the team and happy to have a catch up over a cuppa.
Unfortunately we went with an internet based Solicitor and at times contact a real issue.
Sam would step in and address any pressing issues with them.
Overall an excellent service from listing house, to completion.
Can’t recommend Sam and Fine and Country enough. Professional, empathetic when needed and encouraging g throughout.
Her communications were always great and always got back to us when needed or requested.

GoogleWe recently sold our property with Fine and Country South Devon, Samantha Gill dealt with the transaction from start to finish. The valuation was completed professionally and shortly after instructing, Sam found us a buyer off her client database prior to placing the property on the open market. Communication throughout was excellent and we were kept informed throughout the transaction which was completed in very good time as a result. She went above and beyond and we would happily instruct Fine and Country again.

GoogleWe recently purchased a property in the Haytor area of Devon, through South Devon Fine & Country Estate Agents, based in Bovey Tracey.
Right from the day of the first viewing with Gareth, to the day of completion, all the agents we had dealings with at the office were polite, attentive and extremely helpful in their dealings with us, no matter how many times I needed to contact them about something!
I feel very grateful that James and his team did their upmost to help us secure our dream forever home in what proved to be a fairly lengthy and tricky purchasing process, due to unforeseen circumstances that were absolutely no fault of their own. I was impressed by their ability to keep the sellers and ourselves fully informed throughout any unexpected curve balls we encountered, and I believe their professionalism is what ultimately kept everything on track for a successful purchase.
I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending South Devon Fine & Country Estate Agents in Bovey Tracey, to anyone who is considering buying or selling a property in the area. They were excellent!

GoogleIan Bransdon at Fine and Country is honestly the best estate agent we’ve ever dealt with. We knew Ian from before, so when we heard he was working with Fine and Country we contacted him without a doubt.
From beginning to end everything was followed through. We’ve been with estate agents before where nothing was followed up like it should be.
With what was a very stressful process his attention to detail was next to none.
I would strongly recommend Fine and country.
Ian gave the best advice, looked at all the relevant important factors regarding selling our home. He stuck with us when everything seemed like it was falling apart. He remained positive and focused throughout and didn’t let us down in any way what do ever!
Fine and country has a new unique way of selling your home that is sets apart from other agent’s. They focus not only on the house but on the area and what it has to offer. With their professional photography sets the home with the real feel of the property and it’s surroundings. Ian has had much experience with buying and selling throughout this area.
Therefore he brought only genuine buyers that sifted out buyers that weren’t ready or not sure what they wanted and wasting time preparing my home for viewings which with a working family was very stressful.
Thank you.

GoogleHighly recommended. Thank you so much to James at Fine and Country for getting our house purchase over the line. It was a reasonably complex sale and James was representing the seller but he was a fantastic help to both sides throughout. We found him to be open, honest and trustworthy, he kept the communication flowing throughout and when there were bumps in the road he navigated them calmly and professionally. I know he went above and beyond anything that would normally be expected in his support to the seller too. Highly recommended.

GoogleJames and his team were great to deal with, unlike one of the other Newton Abbot estate agents (we were 15 weeks into another property purchase and were being totally messed about by the seller's agent - mentioning no names YM)!
After deciding enough was enough- we started our search again and totally fell in love with a Fine and Country property. Being in a chain which had just about completed- we were desperate for a quick turn around and James Cooper and his very proficient team helped turn our subsequent property purchase around in 5 weeks. James and co were really professional, helpful and communicative and above all honest!- just what you need when going through the adventures of moving home!
I would definitely use Fine and Country again!

The whole process was easy and efficient for us as sellers
We felt confident and assured by James, the director, he is very personable and professional.
What really impressed us, was the video that was made of our home and large grounds, it gave you the feel of the place and how private and magical it is.
James and his assistant Scarlet kept us informed at all times, we are extremely happy with the whole service.
A huge thank you to all involved.

GoogleWe could not have asked for better representation. Ian Bransdon was a delight from start to finish- professional and convivial. The quality of the brochure was superb. And we had instant, useful feedback from Ian following viewings. Compared to the many other estate agents we have used in the past, F&C are in a different league. We would most certainly use them again, and recommend them without reservation.
