Very reliable

Chris had great knowledge on the property and was prompt at responding to my queries. He kept me informed on the processes involved and was on time when arranging to meet for viewings. Overall a very professional approach.

Seller review
A stress free experience.

A stress free experience.

Because of our personal circumstances, the whole thought of selling was a nightmare for us. Chris wrapped us up in cotton wool and took all the stress and worry away. He was in contact regularly and never lost focus or positivity, despite the very slow market. We would highly recommend him. He was honest, hard working and tenacious. His care and great sense of humour got us through a very difficult patch in our lives.

Realistic approach, excellent communications.

Realistic approach, excellent communications.

Chris had a friendly attitude from the start, and showed a realistic approach to the process, the time involved, and the likely final price range. He communicated well, and was always available to talk through possible problems. He was an excellent liaison between us and those who provided services to help the sales process. He was flexible, and able to adapt the sales method to achieve a satisfactory result for us.

Excellent communicator and dedicated to the sale

Chris was an excellent communicator who kept me up to date throughout the sale process. Was always contactable, professional, hardworking and listened to what I wanted. I know he did lots of work behind the scenes to get a high number of people through the property. Thanks Chris! Would have no hesitation in recommending to others looking to sell.

Chris helped produce a win/win outcome with both the seller and buyer being happy.

Chris's personality and straightfoward engagement capability provided, me the buyer, with sufficent information and confidence in the process which in turn led to my successful offer. In addition he balanced the selling aspect of the engagement so that I never felt it was being oversold or overpressured - neither of which approach would have worked for me.

Buyer review
Helpful and knowledgeable.

Helpful and knowledgeable.

Chris has been fantastic to work with. He is incredibly helpful and knows a lot about the whole process. He gave us a lot of guidance in the steps of the home buying process which was great because it was our first time buying.
