It is impossible to pick out individual members of staff at Thomas Morris for recognition because the whole team was exceptional in their handling of my sale. When deciding to sell the house, I got 4 valuations from local agents in one long, tiring day. Meeting with Phil Hancock stood out as he was the only one I felt was listening to me and showing empathy for my situation. I was moving away from Biggleswade into a flat, leaving my much loved home of 15 years, which was an emotional transition. Phil was more concerned that I had given it enough thought to be sure I was doing the right thing, than he was in getting my business. Time was never an issue for him and he came round several times to answer my questions, never pushing me to agree to sell.
Once the house was on the market, the TM team worked seamlessly, with information being conveyed to all members of the team immediately so whoever I spoke to, they all had the same understanding of my wishes and updates relating to viewings. It is clear that they all support each other and enjoy working in the team. I quickly got familiar with all staff and felt they knew me as an individual and treated me as such. Nothing was ever too much trouble for Ryan, Matt, Sue and Sue. They always found time to answer my questions and would ring me spontaneously to update me, even if there were no major developments. Viewings were always accompanied and I felt secure that they treated my home with respect in my absence.
When it came to the stage of accepting offers, the team really came into their own. The support I received was outstanding. It became quite frantic at the end on a Saturday afternoon with several potential buyers making bids. Sue Singleton and Matt dealt with it efficiently and patiently, wanting the best for both me and the eventual buyer. They both showed me more kindness, patience and understanding than I could have ever expected from them during this difficult, stressful time. Their expertise in negotiation meant that I achieved full asking price for the house within 3 weeks, during February when the market was fairly slow.
Since agreeing the sale, the team have continued to support me, monitoring progress and even offering me advice on the purchase of my new property which was in another part of the country. They made me feel I could call them at any time and never felt pushed into progressing to the next step unless I was sure it was right for me. Having good links with my solicitors, they were able to keep abreast of all legal developments and helped explain any steps which I did not fully understand. At completion, they all wished me well and have even sent follow on emails to ask how I was settling into the new area.
Overall, I would have no hesitation in recommending the team at Thomas Morris. I cannot fault them in any way. There is nothing more I could have asked them to do for me and the way they dealt with the sale and their support for me individually, far exceeded my expectations. The team all made the experience much less stressful and less painful than I had been led to expect moving house would be. Seeing my experiences, and recognising the outstanding service provided, two of my neighbours have since chosen to sell through TM. There can be no greater endorsement than such repeat business and personal referrals.
Thank you Phil, Ryan, Matt, Sue and Sue.
