100% Communication & Result

Our brief was: to live in town, but somewhere that doesnt feel like we are in town. We first met Steve at another of his listing, which resulted in x2 other listing viewings. 3rd house he showed us we knew we had found our excate brief. Steve is extremely friendly, non-judgemental, honest & has the best communicationyou can ask for! Where he really shined was how extremely helpful he was to support actually buying our home! Steve had all the right contacts (inspectors etc) required to get the deal actually done. We just wouldn't have been able to do it without his support! If your thinking of selling or buying you can trust Steve!! An agent who is there to support both listers & sellers.
