Always difficult to choose the right…
Always difficult to choose the right estate agent as there are so many out there. I went with Miles and Barr. They arranged the photos and information about the property. I wasn’t happy with the description and emailed the agent in the evening. The ad was changed and I was contacted first thing in the morning to discuss. Also we were given the help of a sales progressor which I didn’t really think was necessary but in fact, it was excellent. If I was not having a response from the solicitor and had a concern, I emailed Becky and within half an hour I would have an answer to my query. I felt confident in the advice she gave to move the sale forward. Louise in that department was also very supportive. All in all, as good an experience as possible in this difficult market.

On the whole a good experience
Can not fault the start of the process, The Sales staff were brilliant, we felt they were honest and helpful, always coming back to us when we had questions. They didn't really have to sell our house as we were lucky enough to sell to our first viewer. We were not impressed by the, all be it, indirect pressure we had from their panel solicitors, despite our clearly stating we would not use them, they kept trying to get us to and labelling it as a 'mistake' if that is the case take note of our instruction that we are not using them the first time and do not continue to try and get us to sign up with panel solicitors.Once sold, although our Sales Progressor was very friendly and a nice person, we felt everything slipped from this point, we could rarely actually speak with her, we could always leave a message but she rarely called back, preferring it seemed, to email. She did eventually provide an adequate service and get things moving for us, but we felt only because we would not give up and continuously chased things.However, despite the disappointment of the after sale process, on the whole we had a good experience, the staff were all friendly and we can understand why M&B have a good reputation. We would definitely recommend them as they are, on the whole, very good at what they do.

Miles and Barr were great in finding us a buyer so soon after a previous sale fell through twice!
Miles and Barr were great in finding us a buyer so soon after we put our flat on the market, even after we had previous buyers fall through and the disappointment that comes with that.
Thank you for sharing your experience, Phil. We're thrilled to hear that our team efficiently found you a buyer so quickly. We're glad Louise's professionalism and support made a positive impact. We appreciate your kind words about our local expertise and commitment to clear communication.

We were very impressed with Debbie Mead's handling of our sale, particularly when an issue arose further down the chain as a result of the PM law saga. Debbie's input was invaluable and helped all parties swiftly find a resolution and move to completion.
Thank you for sharing your experience, Tom. We are glad to hear that Debbie's professional support was invaluable in resolving the issue. We apologise for any challenges you faced during the process with another solicitor within the chain but we are pleased to hear Debbie helped facilitate a solution and a new firm of solicitors.

Take responsibility for your choice of solicitor
This is my second experience with M&B in 6 months. I was happy to go with them a second time, even happier that I didn't use the solictors that they regularly work with the second time around, but successfully worked with Girlings instead. It's true there are a few bolt-on costs for photos, ID checks, EPC rating, but we were made aware of them before signing the contract. Apart from a bit of a slow start when you're so keen to lock in an offer, the committed and longer term staff were always very helpful. Having worn Rebecca Gravener out with the previous sale, her help was less necessary this time. All the same, once again she was on the case before the rest of us every step of the way. Lynette also, charming and helpful when the buyers visited for a final view.

Miles and Barr sold our property. It was a very difficult chain (not their fault!) but their sales progressor, Annie, was absolutely amazing. Kept in regular contact, always went above and beyond. Thank you so much.
We're so happy to hear that Annie's support made such a difference during a challenging chain. We appreciate your positive feedback and thank you for recognizing her dedication and hard work in selling your property.
