From the first visit to completion of the sale of our house we've been impressed beyond all measure by all members of the team at Dacre Son and Hartley in Ripon. Nothing has been too much trouble and we would like to thank Andrew Skelton in particular who has shown extraordinary expertise and sensitivity throughout the course of the sale.
