I have been really impressed with the way Jordan and Dominic dealt with us from start to finish. Keeping in regular contact, having a very good understanding of all the aspects of our home and achieving a quick sale at a price both buyer and seller were satisfied with. Thanks to them we have been able to move to a bigger home for our new baby.
