Appalling communications through out the rental of my property. They also sanctioned work to go ahead on my house without my approval or permission, and had the audacity to invoice me. Rather than except their mistake they have refused to settle the bill with the contractor and are still chasing me. All landlords avoid !

Brilliant service throughout a 16 week buying process. All team members were friendly, informative and so supportive during a lengthy purchase process (due to solicitor issues). I 100% recommend them for every reason.
Thanks for such a great review Natalie! Hope you’re settled in to your new home!

We used Absolute lettings to move into our appartment. We have been through a number of letting agencies in the past and have found that absolute have been an absolute pleasure. Kenzee and Lydia answered all of our questions and let the process move very smoothly. Thank you very much
Thanks for your kind comments especially about Kenzie & Lydia.

Cottage let in super quick time.
A-B-C-Lutely! A. Absolute let my cottage within a few days of instruction. B. Brilliantly produced portfolio of photos, super efficient creation of details and speedy wide spread advertising resulted in the right tenant match. C. Careful due diligence followed and the deal was tied up PDQ. ABSOLUTELY first class performance.

Sounds and professional advice
Mine was an unusual type of property to sell and despite slight problems with the survey Absolute found a buyer and smoothed the sale process with a minimum of fuss. No hesitation in recommending them.

Proactive & Efficient!
As you can imagine, selling and buying a house is very stressful. However, Darren put our mind at rest during the valuation process, and helped us fully understand the process of selling our home. So much so, it was sold for the full asking price, after the first viewing within 48 hours of going on the market. We were then kept in the loop of future properties coming to market, and subsequently purchased our new home with the guidance of Frank who was a pleasure throughout, again through Absolute. In doing so, Kim the sales progressor was able to keep a guided eye and watch on the relevant sales, and was then able ensure the transaction was managed correctly when certain issues arose within the chain. It is very refreshing to see a local independent Estate Agent taking pride in their service, and providing a proactive and efficient service throughout. A pleasure to deal with, and would certainly want to use again and recommend to friends and family. Mr & Mrs Murphy

I found Debbie enthusiastic, trustworthy and professional,
I would not hesitate to recommend Absolute and in particular Debbie, as she is a very competent, positive professional person, who went above and beyond in helping to sell our house.

Fantastic estate agents
We used Absolute to sell our home and we are currently registered with them searching for a rental property. They are an excellent estate agent and a refreshing change from other agents we have used in the past! Nothing is ever too much trouble they really do provide excellent customer service! Over and above their remit. They always respond to queries no matter what time of day or night! This is a real bonus to us as we are both working professionals. They have even contacted other estate agents for us on our behalf as we have struggled to find a rental home! The sale of our home was very smooth and quick!! We can honestly say we are so pleased we chose Absolute as they are the best agents in the area!
