FacebookWhere do i start with Mark Buchanan this is the second time now he has sold me a property within days of putting it on the market. When renovating houses there are ups and downs and setbacks along the way so to get the property sold so quickly makes it worth while, and especially with it being just weeks away from xmas makes it a great achievment. What i will say about Mark is he takes pride in delivering an excellent service and hes never not at work as he is always answering calls and texts about property around the clock. Anybody considering selling a property themselves via facebook or first choice move defo go with Mark because you get so much more first choice barely answer the phone to you its so much better service in my opinion. I will be using this service everytime because unlike purple bricks you dont pay upfront you pay when the property sells.
Thanks again for a brilliant service😁😁

FacebookGreat guy, as buyers he was very helpful. It was extremely difficult for him as his clients, the sellers were completely lacking in honesty, integrity and empathy. Unsurprisingly they had "bad buyers' before, probably due to a total lack of understanding of how you are supposed to act. He kept the deal going even when he wasn't being kept in the loop by his own clients. Very professional, will happily employ Mark when we move again.

FacebookMark sold our house for us under difficult circumstances.
He was very accommodating to both parties.
We had a whats app group so we all knew what was happening with viewings etc.
Mark was very professional and always at the other end of the phone anytime of day.
We sold our house in just over a week!
Can’t recommend Mark and his family enough!
Thank you

FacebookMark offers an extremely professional, personalised and bespoke service. He tailored his approach to suit our needs and offered advice as and when it was needed. He was available at all hours and his effective communication made us feel like we were being well taken care of. Hopefully we don’t have to use an Estate Agent again any time soon...... but if we do, I will certainly give you a call. Cheers,

From the very start of the process Mark / Julie and the team have been very attentive , understanding that they are having to guide you through what can be very stressful process. Their professionalism makes the process very smooth. Setting up a Wattsapp group at the start and keep us updated constantly through the process. Nothing too much bother and fast replies. I cannot speak highly enough of the team.

GoogleApproachable and responsive. Helped us greatly with sale and purchase. The pictures of our house were a far better quality than any previous estate agents we dealt with in the past. The marketing generated a lot of interest in our house straight away.
Responded to any questions straight away and dealt with any concerns that could be resolved.
We would highly recommend Mark.
