This firm is utterly appalling, avoid them like the plague! I rented my property through them, I did not get the service I paid for in the terms & conditions of the contact.

I would recommend Jan Forster without hesitation. They took over from another local agent who had failed to sell our house and secured an asking price offer within 24 hours of the first viewing. We then lost our buyer (no fault of JF) and they did it again. Asking price offer 24 hours after the... Read Full Review
