From the first contact with Belinda she was genuinely helpful and talked us through the process of both buying and selling - we had been in our previous property for 38 years so it was a huge decision to move. Belinda contacted us at every stage of the process to make sure everything ran smoothly, which indeed it did. I can't thank her enough for all her help.
Comment on agent fees
Belinda outlined the fees and gave us time to mull it over before we accepted. The fees were based on a proportion of the selling price so this seems fair to both low end and high end customers.

Called to discuss a lettings property. No one answered on the lettings line, so I tried the sales line. I was greeted by a rude, unprofessional lady who clearly did not want to give me the time of day. Did not take my contact details ...
