Gemma was a superb ambassador for Ainsworth Lord, from the first phone call when we discussed what property needs I had right through the process of finding the right property through to the conclusion of the deal. It is no exaggeration to say that as long as the property was sensibly priced (which it was) I was wanting to buy through Ainsworth Lord because of the professionalism of Gemma.
