The team in Knaresborough have been superb from start to finish .They conducted all the viewings for us kept us informed of everything that was going on, went out of their way to contact other agents and solicitors down the chain to find out how everyone else involved was progressing and made every effort to get things done as efficiently and quickly as possible. They made what is often a very stressful time much easier to cope with and I would definitely use their excellent service again should we need to, and would highly recommend them to anyone else.
