Having been ‘underwhelmed' by another agent renting my flat I decided to come back to DY through whom I bought the property originally several years ago. Caroline is positive, proactive and persistent - as a result the property was let smoothly and swiftly. Early days but so far I can't fault the service, value and professionalism of the team at Duncan Yeardley. ...
