Testimonials

"It was at a time about six weeks after a long term tenant there had moved out and I was facing a mountain of work in the middle of a bleak winter. While I'm still relatively fit for an 80 year old, the prospect of continuation as a landlord had lost all appeal, I wanted to quit and sell; But primarily I was convinced that I must restore the property back to a more attractive and appealing appearance first, which would have taken me months. Your advice was the market had reached such an acute state of shortage that many buyers were willing to purchase with far less concern about the superficial condition of property than in the past. In response I said OK, let's give it a try, but was still dubious. You were right of course, and the property sold within one week. After short negotiation I received what I considered to be a fair price, and I'm sure the buyer will not regret his purchase at just over 8% below government valuation, as I'm sure he will be able to add considerable value back again, on which note I wish him every success. So thank you Chris, you did a good job of bringing a somewhat reluctant seller and willing buyer together, achieving the perfect deal, where all parties seem to be pleased with the outcome.
