When selling a property it can be a very harrowing time but Martins of Ashley Cross were exceptional. We had a few problems but Gale sorted everything out. All the staff were friendly and made us very welcome. Would not hesitate in recommending Martins of Ashley Cross, Poole.

My husband and I recently purchased a property through Gail at Martin & Co. Gail remained a positive, professional and friendly presence throughout, keeping in regular contact with us and the other parties in the chain. We would recommend Gail to anyone wanting to sell their property and if you are purchasing like we were, you are in safe hands. Thank you very much Gail.

Gail has been fabulous at every step of the sale of our flat. She successfully secured the sale within 1 week of advertising and at full asking price. She was proactive in keeping in touch with the buyer and both sets of solicitors in order to ensure that completion happened as soon as possible. We highly recommend Gail and Martin & Co.

A huge thank you to Sarah Boddy who helped us through letting our first home together. Sarah made the whole process easy, efficient and very quick as we were in a position to move right away.

My experience of Martin & Co was very good from beginning to end. I dealt mostly with Gail who was always available to me and allowed me to visit the house I was buying quite a few times!!
