It was very easy to communicate with them. They were always friendly. They were honest in valuing my old house. But what was special about these people was that they went the extra mile and told us everything there was to know. I would rate them 10/10. I would recommend Castles to anyone who wants ...

After a slow start I started to lose faith in Castles. However that all changed when I spoke to Austen. Austen gave me invaluable advice regarding what my property should be marketed at in order to attract the right buyers and he was right on the money because that was the turning point. Muhammed ...

Austen came to have a chat about the potential sale of our property.

Austen was friendly, down to earth, ... Read Full Review
