We instructed Harris Bell to sell a ground floor flat in April 2013.

Mark and his team were highly proactive, professional and efficient throughout the whole sales process. They were easy to get hold of, provided prompt feedback and carried out 13 viewings within a 8 week period.

Despite competition from 2 other maisonettes for sale within the same street, which had been on with 'another agent' for over 6 months, Harris Bell managed to find a buyer for our maisonette and successfully agreed a price which hit our opinion of value.

Once the sale had been agreed the sales progression team managed to get the sale completed within a 4 week period, which was extremely impressive.

I would definitely use Harris Bell again

Comment on agent fees
Fees are excessive, deposits are too large, and a guarantor is often required despite excellent references and no history of defaulting on rent. I shouldn’t have to pay an extra £200 for a cat. I find this discriminatory. Most pet owners are clean and responsible, but typically tenants pay the price for the one or two bad ones. This was particularly galling considering the house was in a pretty poor state of decoration when I moved in, and yet streaky walls and ancient gloss were deemed good enough by the agent - but the slim chance of my cat causing damage to the house warranted a separate agreement document all of its own.
