Excellent and very efficient service from all the staff at Hedge End. Matthew was very professional and patient. We did not feel at all rushed as he explained everything in detail.

Started process of selling joint owned home with Kate and later all business was passed to Nadine. We also had dealing with Matthew who completed his part of the process satisfactorily. Nadine picked everything up well and was very good at keeping us informed by e-mail/phone although we did notice the on-line progress checker was not updated.
