The agent was presented with a real challenge - a short lease with a notoriously difficult and uncompromising freeholder. He never gave up, even though 2 deals fell through due to no fault of his own. He was prepared to carry out viewings at any time to suit potential purchasers and spend as much time on their concerns as possible. He also operates a transparent service, so one knows where one stands with him at all times and can trust him completely.

We were delighted when he found a third buyer at a great price and all proceeded smoothly to completion under his careful attention.

Thanks, Frances

Comment on agent fees
Raphael and Emma are good value. From recent experience there are high-street / chain letting agents who charge more, but do (a lot) less. They are clear and transparent about their fees. I have no qualms in paying them their commission - they earned it!

Thank you for your testimonial. I think it is worth pointing out that in fact there are no additional charges once you vacate the property as the checkout report is paid for by the landlord. Most agencies hide this charge. Our agency fees have always been very competitive. On behalf myself and Emma we wish you happiness in your new home. ...
