GoogleWow where do I start. Selling a property can be a difficult process but the team at D&H made it seamless and took away the stress. I’d like to give a personal shout out to Amanda, as she was diligent and kept me up to date at all times, as well as chasing up the buyers legal team relentlessly. They completed the sale in a swift manor, all I can say is thank you for providing such a brilliant service.

GoogleDurden and Hunt completed the task very well from the first meeting about the sale of our property through to the end. Sale went through very quickly as expected from what they told us. The purchase of our new property was challenging (which was no reflection on Durden and Hunt) due to ongoing problems with other parts of the chain. However, Amanda Schiavi worked tirelessly to try and get it over the line despite the repeated attempts of PIER MANAGEMENT to thwart the process.
Thank you to everyone at Durden and Hunt for your efforts and professionalism during the whole process.

GoogleWe started looking for a new home last September and found the perfect property with Durden and Hunt. We were unfortunate to have a previous property offer fall through with an awful real estate agent (Alter and Cope). We were also unfortunate to have a truly horrific conveyancing firm on this sale (WYM Legal). But thanks to Ryan (our real estate agent) and especially Amanda (our case progressor) we had full transparency of the process, constant communication and they were able to get us through every issue we had that came up. Our new home wouldn't be possible without them. We are so thankful to the team!!

GoogleWe recently completed our house purchase, and we couldn't have done it without the incredible work of Amanda Stark from Durden and Hunt. Despite a challenging chain of 9 parties, Amanda handled everything with absolute professionalism and dedication.
She was incredibly responsive, always quick to reply to queries and kept us updated at every stage. What really stood out was how she proactively chased solicitors, vendors, and other agents across the chain to keep things moving. Her persistence and communication skills were key in getting this purchase over the line. We truly felt she was actively involved in the purchase and making sure things went smoothly for everyone involved.

GoogleDurden & Hunt have been extremely helpful throughout what’s been a very stressful and lengthy process. Amanda and Ross have both been an amazing help and have kept me sane throughout my move. They have both always provided me with honest updates and not just given me information I want to hear.
I’m hopefully not moving any time in the next 30 years! But if I was, I’d be calling Amanda & Ross up straight away. I’d highly recommend to anyone looking at either selling or purchasing their house.
Thanks so much D&H gang!

GoogleI am glad I decided to go with Durden & Hunt after trying to sell through Purple Bricks for almost 2 years. D&H succeeded where PB didn't manage to get me a desirable result.
Amanda Schiavi was brilliant as a sales progressor and helped get us to exchange and completion in a quicker-than-expected time.
I highly recommend Durden & Hunt and they will be my first port of call when I need an estate agent in the future.

GoogleThank you for assisting us with our first dream home!!!
From the initial viewing to the final signing, Amanda and ross was always available, responsive, and promptly pushing the entire process. Your expertise and guidance helped us secure our dream home.
What impressed us most was that you made it happen before the stamp duty for first time buyers kicked in and that too the entire process was completed within 6weeks, wherein we were estimating more than 8-10weeks. You truly went above and beyond to ensure our needs were met.
If you're looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and dedicated estate agent, look no further than Durden and hunt! We're so grateful for your help in making our dream a reality.
