Very professional and prompt service

5

Tozers (Josh Gilbert particularly) were recommended to us and we were very happy we chose the company to facilitate our house purchase. Quick responses to communications and taking action quickly, and the joint work of Abhi and Josh meant we progressed as quickly as we could have hoped for. I would not hesitate to recommend them myself.

Happy customer

I am delighted with the service I have received from Josh and Abbi at Tozers. It's been 20 years since I last bought a house, so they were very patient in answering my questions and were very diligent in chipping away at the problems we found during the conveyancing process. I felt like I was in safe hands all along.
