House Sale

We have used Clarke & Son for the sale of our previous and new home. We therefore decided to use them for the sale of my late parents home. Marie, Sue and the team did not disappoint and made the sale proceed very smoothly from start to finish. They were extremely professional throughout and kept us fully informed during the sale. We would, therefore, thoroughly recommend Clarke & Son.

Marie and Sue were fantastic throughout the process. Always reachable and fast at responding. Even when on holiday work was continued through a temporary replacement.

Very professional service and will definitely return should the need arise.

Efficient service from start to finish

Claire was very friendly and came across knowledgeable. She handled our matter with great care and patience. She went the extra mile for us when she spotted an issue with the registration of our property. We would highly recommend Claire (as we have already done!) and feel safe in her hands. Thank you Claire!

I met with Alex who supported me on some challenges I was facing with my employer. He and his team were always quick to support and explained everything in easy to understand language. I was well supported by them throughout and resulted in an ideal solution to my issue.

I fully recommend Alex, and the Clarke & Son team for future requirements.

The team at Clarke & Sons are fantastic. We have worked very closely with Nigel Tranah on a number of transactions and he is fantastic. We always know we are getting sound advice, under pressure of deadlines he can absolutely perform and make what feels like miracles happen!

I can't recommend Nigel and the firm enough.
