Sarah Taylor recently showed us around a property we are hoping to rent. The service was professional with great communication before and after the viewing. We have viewed a number of properties recently so have dealt with a number of agents and Sarah was head and shoulders above all of them

Excellent from start to finish . Julia kept me up to date, at all times, was frequently more up to date than both the solicitors and the estate agent I was using for my sale, and helped to alleviate all my concerns, small or large. Great service

Quick and easy process selling, had a shared ownership property which was on the market with another company for 6 weeks prior and not one viewing, listed with Richard James and had multiple viewings within days of listing going live and sold quickly, the sales progressor was excellent and kept us informed of any updates through out the process.

As an extremely happy client, I would like to recommend Richard James estate to everyone looking to either rent or buy a property. Ms. Gemma Cowley was extremely professional, always ready to assist and even after moving into the property continued to ensure we were comfortable.

I've just left the property I've been renting for the last 2 and a half years with Richard James and would like to comment about the leaving: I received a guideline on how to leave the property, very detailed. I followed all steps, especially the one about hiring a private company to do the cleaning. After a while I received the full deposit back! I have to say that GEE MOSSOM was really helpful. She was following the full process with me, always available and very professional. She answered all my questions, took all necessary actions and made me feel I was being looked after. If you ever rent a property with Richard James make sure Gee Mossom is involved in the process.

Since buying the house in 2020, it being a rocky road getting all the legalities regarding tenancies up together but with the constant help of Grace Dobie I was finally able to move forward with applicants. Grace was excellent at keeping in touch with me and making sure everything was moving in the right direction. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for an Estate Agent to help them. 5 STARS ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
