Excellent service. Viewings were arranged and conducted very well. Details of arranged viewings were communicated to me via text and email. They always followed up with people who had viewed and provided me with detailed feedback.
Fingers crossed we get to completion now!...

Hi Monica.
Thanks for taking the time to place a review on allagents. I am delighted you have been happy with our service. Having the ability to confirm viewings by text and email is great to keep vendors appraised of interest but the good old tradition of picking up the phone and communicating the viewing feedback is just as important and so often neglected by other agents. At Sterling we have a good use of traditional techniques mixed with up to date technology to deliver a superior service. ...

Hi, thanks for the kind words. As a company we understand how important it is to stay in communication after the sale is agreed...most agents assume their job is done at that point but until completion we are always on hand to keep communication to a maximum which tends to keep stress to a minimum. I hope you have settled into your new home. ...

Thanks for the feedback Jane. It is so important to have a tenacious estate agent like Sterling, who continued to discover faults and mistruths in the lower chain and ensured, despite the delays that completion was finally achieved! Good luck in your new home you will be very happy - hope the waiting was worth it for you and your family. ...

Hi Sandy,
Thanks for the kind words and positive comments regarding Charlotte. She certainly is one of the rising stars of the estate agency world and have proved that she is loyal and committed, since many of our competitors have tried (unsuccessfully) to poach her. Charlotte has a bright career path with Sterling...we expect great things for her under our continued progression programme! ...
