Amy was incredible throughout - could not recommend enough!

Amy has been brilliant throughout my apartment sale, dealing with multiple teams and companies to execute the sale within the required timeframe before my mortgage renewed. Her and the team kept us informed every step of the way and were great at negotiating our requirements. Thank you to all the BLJ team!

Excellent assistance all the way through

We were selling our home of 27 years and purchasing a smaller property.
We were totally out of touch with how the buying/selling process works, but we were guided and advised throughout and always in a timely manner via the online account portal.
Sarah and Amy were fantastic and we have no hesitation in recommending them.

Excellent service!

Laura and the team at Bell Lamb & Joynson have been phenomenal and have provided top quality service for us over the past year and a half. Our house sale and purchase involved many complications and we are so lucky that we had Laura to help handle a variety of issues, progress everything quickly and simply and offer advice and support throughout. The communication during the whole process has been great and the app really helps to understand where things are up to. We can’t thank Laura enough for the work she put in to get our purchase and sale over the line and we would highly recommend Laura and the team to everyone.

Bell Lamb and Joynson were brilliant at conveyancing for our recent house move. There were a couple of communication hiccups towards the end but it was swiftly sorted out. Olivia Andrews and Erin Duffy were both really helpful and explained anything I was confused about.
