A thoroughly professional service from start to finish. I was kept informed at every step of the process and my options were fully explained. A huge thank you to Jo and her team for handling the whole house move with tenacity, making for a smooth transaction.

Great service with a personal touch

We were selling our Mum’s house. Jo and Mandy were a great team supporting us through the purchase. Our first buyers pulled out of their offer and Jo and Mandy moved seamlessly to work with our new buyer’s. This has not been a straightforward sale - Jo and Mandy have kept us right every step of the way. Thank you.

So glad I chose Jo and Mandy

I was living in a house that had a service charge and linked to a housing association, who were notoriously difficult to deal with. Due to a negative experience staircasing to 100% using a cheap online solicitor, I spent a lot of time in choosing Jo and Mandy. They were fantastic, keeping me informed without having to continually chase them. Dealing with the housing association and the difficulties that inevitably arise, with a calm and stoic manner that I found reassuring. I felt that they were very knowledgeable and experienced and therefore not ruffled by anything that came up. I would highly recommend them to anyone, and in my opinion, paying a little extra for.

Charles Coleman- Efficient and friendly

Having been using Charles Coleman -(now part of Parfitt Creswell) since 1987 for various transactions of property and business purchases and sales. Have always found them to be efficient and friendly especially Jo, Martin, Mandy and the rest of the staff.
