Customer Review

Tim King is the “KING” of estate agents! He was able to secure an offer on our property in a very short space of time and was instrumental in ensuring the sale progresed and completed with little stress and anxiety. It’s fair to say we had a very complex chain which is never ideal but Tim took this all in his stride and at times provided reassurance and insights to balance and clam nervous tendencies. Excellent service from Tim and I highly recommend utilising his exceptional service, knowledge and commitment if you’re thinking of selling your home.
