Shady and Narges were fantastic from start to finish! This is the second time we’ve used them to sell a property, and once again, they’ve been amazing to deal with. They’ve supported us through both our buying and selling journeys, always providing excellent communication and thoughtful advice along the way. They worked incredibly hard to achieve a great result, and we couldn’t be happier. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell. Thanks again!

"Di and Jeremy were friendly, relaxed, cheerful and professional; they answered my text messages at anytime of day or night and Jeremy in particular sympathised with my anxieties and offered reassurance."
We had the pleasure of purchasing an investment property through Jo Marsh in May 2026. Jo was amazing and nothing was too much trouble. She understood what we were looking for and nailed the brief within 3 viewings. The purchase process was smooth, and each step was communicated faultlessly. She kept us well informed on all aspects, recommended building inspectors, finance professionals and even an insurance broker and then organised a pre settlement opportunity to measure for curtains. We found Jo to be not just professional, but just a lovely person, and she will be top of our list of agents when time comes to sell. Alex and Ben Carter
Ella explained what was going on and kept me informed all along the way. Nothing was too much of a problem and a real friendly lovely lady who works hard for her clients
I honestly never expected a real estate agent to be this helpful and efficient! Working with Jin Jing has been such a great experience. He's incredibly responsive, knows the property market inside out, and is always quick to make decisions and get things moving. I was really impressed by how smoothly everything went. Jin Jing was always one step ahead, kept me well informed, and made the whole buying process so much easier than I expected. I'm so glad I had him helping me throughout the purchase. I genuinely couldn't recommend him more highly! If you're thinking about buying or selling a property, definitely have a chat with Jin Jing. You won't regret it!
Luke is a very organised and committed operator. He communicates exceptionally well, and he showed great perseverance in working with us to get a successful outcome.
He is a positive, enthusiastic, and driven salesperson. Every time I meet him or speak with him over the phone, I can feel his genuine commitment to every customer. He truly cares about his customers and takes his work seriously. A trustworthy and reliable partner you can always count on!
Charlotte was incredibly supportive and encouraging towards us in our journey to buy the house. She helped us feel comfortable throughout the whole process and made space for us to get additional checks of the property undertaken. Thanks so much for helping us to secure this amazing first home!
I would confidently recommend Charlotte - she worked hard to sell and we are very happy.
As first-home buyers, we couldn’t have asked for a better agent! She was amazing throughout the whole process. The more time we spent with her, the more she understood exactly what we were looking for, and she really helped us find the perfect home. It was clear that she genuinely cared about finding us the right place, not just making a sale. Her knowledge and experience were invaluable in helping us understand property values and make informed decisions. She guided us through every step, explained everything clearly, and was always kind, patient, and flexible. She was especially great at the auction and helped us navigate some tricky situations with confidence. We’re really grateful for all her help and support and would happily recommend her to anyone looking to buy a home. She truly went above and beyond!
