Thank you for taking the time to leave your review, I'm sorry to hear your transaction didn't go as you expected. On reviewing your file I can see that it took almost a month for us to gain authority from you with several unanswered calls and numerous emails. Searches were requested on the day we gained authority to act along with raising enquires to which the other side of your transaction gave poor responses which Jack had to challenge and raise additional enquires against. Towards the end of the transaction we were informed of alternative funding which did also require further time to complete due diligence further causing delays. Throughout your transaction several times a 3rd party tried to contact us on your behalf to which they were advised they had no authority to speak on your behalf.

Thank you so much to Jack and all the team at Glover Priest in Lichfield. The process of moving house can certainly be stressful, but the team were always friendly, helpful, and happy to answer my queries throughout the process.

This part of my review is for Ann Merrick who I am very grateful to have help me through the process. Ann was very available and approachable, she responded to me promptly and was able to explain things to me clearly. I felt in safe hands with Ann. Thank you!

I am happy and confident that the work that was done is thorough and correct. I feel Jack could have been quicker and more regular with his communication as I had to request updates rather than receiving them as each stage was complete. I also found that when I asked to explain things into lamen terms for someone who is new to the terminology and experience Jack was unable to do this clearly.

Thank you for taking the time to leave your review. We are always looking at ways we can improve how we communicate, Jack has noted many occasions where contact was made with you with one time being in excess of 40 minutes. Jack did have a short and unforeseen sickness resulting in a couple of days absence, this could have slightly interrupted Jack's ability to maintain contact with you.

I have used Glover Priest for many years, but this was my first dealing using Jack Howell. Unfortunately my case became very complicated due to outside factors, but Jack went above and beyond to get the deal through. He was always available and accessible. i look forward to doing more work with him as he takes so much of the burden. Thank you
