We recently bought a home through Symonds & Reading. I dealt directly with Angela who was charming, efficient and friendly at all times. She always returned calls and emails, doing her absolute best to get any information I asked of her. The whole team were really helpful and proactive. Exactly what you would hope for from an estate agents.
