We were very enthusiastic with this estate agents, however we found them really hard to contact. We emailed, called the branch and other numbers. We tried many times to view two properties but could not speak to anyone. I would not recommend these to anyone.

Comment on agent fees
The fees are transparent and reasonable and well worth it for the high level of service. Particularly valuable is their connections with local builders, etc. so you pay closer to the market rate rather than inflated fees and call-out charged charged by many larger agents.
