Thank you so much to Ken, Ric and Gabe for finding and securing our dream family home. We didn’t have a smooth sale process (with a different estate agents) but Whittaker & Co remained patient with us, maintained great communication throughout & ensured we didn’t lose what is now our perfect family home. We couldn’t recommend them highly enough & will certainly be using them again in the future.

The very fabulous Whittaker & Co. What a journey but certainly made easier by the help and support of Ken and his team. An extra special thank you to Gabe who seemed to work all hours to ensure he got back to us and kept all parties in the loop. We wouldn’t hesitate to use Whittaker’s again or recommend them. Thank you again, you’ve realised our dream 🏡

Whittaker and co were not my estate agents, but were the selling agents of the house I fell in love with. However, Mark gave me so much time, support and advice that helped me through this most stressful of times. A true professional, so knowledgable and happy to step in wherever needed. I would highly recommend Mark and Whittaker and Co.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

These guys really know their stuff. No sales pitches or messing about and no stressful negotiating. They listened to my needs and they exceeded my expectations. Multiple people through the door within 3 days and the property sold within a week. Completion was quick and I would not hesitate to recommend Whittaker & Co. There is nothing they don't know about the Harpenden property market.

I have the highest trust in and strongly recommend Mark Lumley at Whittaker . Have no doubt if you are selling or buying a property with Mark, especially if it’s a special character home. Peter Brooke

We recently moved house and we wanted to say a big thank you to Mark Lumley at Whittaker & Co. We contacted him based on previous recommendations for a house valuation and were really impressed by his manner and professionalism. We were grateful that he was the estate agent on the property we were purchasing. Communication was brilliant and he made a potentially stressful situation very easy.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

We are very fortunate that we approached Whittaker to sell our property in Harpenden. Ken, Ric, Gabe and the team were always patient, approachable and helpful throughout the process. All the staff members are very friendly and welcoming. They provided us very useful advice which I highly appreciate. I am happy to recommend Whittaker And Co.

We instructed Whittaker & Co after being completely underwhelmed by a much larger Harpenden agent. Whittaker's guide price was spot-on and, despite being a fairly niche sell, we achieved the asking price within days of going on the market. Selling in May/June 2021 was hectic to say the least, but Ken and his team were cool, calm and professional from offer to completion. Highly recommended!PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

We bought a house via Whittaker & Co in 2022 - Gabe was the lead agent. He was extremely helpful, transparent, and communicative throughout the whole process. Upon collecting keys there are some nice personal touches from the company as well - which adds to the experience. I would certainly use them if we sell and would happily buy with them again.

Very knowledgeable agents in Harpenden but they do hide information, very key information in order to get a sale. Some of which is understandable, because they are in the business of deals and getting a sale across the line however they cannot be trusted as an agent.

Whittaker’s did a fantastic job helping our family with our move within Harpenden. Ken and Gabe were brilliant in helping us meet our fairly specific requirements; their patience, knowledge of the market and advice was always top quality. We would strongly recommend Whittaker’s whether you’re looking to buy or sell within the town.

Gabe and the team at Whittaker were fantastic to work with. Throughout the ups and downs of a rather complicated chain their communication and help was top notch. We absolutely don't plan on moving again soon, but when we do they will be our first port of call.
