Excellent from Start to Finish
I instructed Alex from Merritt's on a property purchase. Alex had great attention to detail throughout and made the process as efficient as possible. Alex and his colleagues were very proactive and made it a great experience. I have used a number of firms across the Tees Valley to purchase and sell property and this is the best experience I have had by some margin. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Merritt's and Alex.
