From start to finish the whole team at Saleboards were helpful, efficient and approachable. Saleborards has a completely different feel to other estate agents. They were professional and knowledgeable but in my opinion what makes them stand out is the fact they are honest, caring and ethical. These three things are hard to find when selling a house. The team at Saleboards went out of their way to ensure the selling of my house went smoothly and communicated with me every step of the way. Their valuation was accurate and they ensured I had lots of viewings early on and sold my house within three days which was outstanding. It goes without saying that I highly recommend Saleboards and will be recommending that my friends and family use them in the future when selling or buying a home. I would like to thank the whole team at Saleboards for their hard work and outstanding customer service. I don't often write reviews but this one was differently worth writing.
Comment on agent fees
Considering all the work Saleboards put in their fees are very good value. I found their fees to be very competitive compared to other estate agents.
