Brilliant company to deal with. Not pressurised at all which is what I liked as moving house is a big decision but the agent spent time going through all the different options about how best to market and when. Just found them so easy to talk to and had a genuine interest in what I was looking for. Marketing material is second to none. Very professional and informative.
