Dear John,
Many thanks for your comments above.
I think it's fair to say that all agents have buyers in this market but it takes unique marketing and the skill and endeavors of commited staff to get such a fantastic result such as £170,000 extra!!
I am so glad that you benefitted so much from using Nathan and his Douglas Allen Wanstead team and hope that we can of service to you again in the future.
Regards, Jon Holden - Managing Director, Douglas Allen ...

Dear Matthew,
Many thanks for taking the time to post this review.
Douglas Allen are one of only a few estate agents to have dedicated Sales Progressors looking after every one of our sales and your comments demonstrate just how valuable an asset they are in ensuring matters run as smoothly as possible during what can often be a very stressful process. Janine takes an enormous amount of pride in her work and will be thrilled that she has helped you on this occasion.
I wish you every hap ...
