Sale and Purchase in a Chain

5

Darren and team were excellent to work with across our chained sale and purchase. Extremely communicative and always quick to find answers when needed. The sales team were swift and efficient, resulting in a number of offers and acceptance within 10 days of listing. They represented the seller for the property we purchased as well, so helped to ensure end-to-end completion. Highly recommend these professionals.

Any worries or stress were solved allowing us to purchase a beautiful place on the Isle of Arran, so we have no hesitation in highly reccomending and adding 5*stars for a job very well done!

Fantastic service from start to finish

Darren sorted absolutely everything out for us, from finding our dream home, recommending, Nick, our financial advisor to the wonderful Rebecca Ross , who was alway available to answer all my “ questions” not used to the Scottish way of buying a house these guys guided me through every step, and were there for me at every stage!
I only wish it was this simple in England!
Thank you Darren for your support and advice and even getting back to me on a Sunday. What can I say, absolutely first class! Thank you so much!
