We bought a house a number of years ago through Bourne and they were excellent in some challenging circumstances. As a result, when we recently decided to sell a rental property, we contacted them for help. It only took 6 weeks from the day we engaged Bourne to the sale completing. This is quite simply down to their knowledge of the local market and their strong network. The service throughout was excellent and the process was seamless. I cannot recommend them highly enough for their professionalism, honesty and integrity.

I am trying to deal with the above comments and must stress at this point that no complaint has been made to the offices to deal with. Furthermore Damian Hartigan does not deal with customers so I am not sure why his name has been mentioned. Finally if the tenant has been put in contact with the landlord it will because the agreement is for Let Only service and we are not managing the property. As with any issues we are happy to investigate fully and assist where possible in finding a solution b ...
