D MacMillan

Alan has been so helpful, I was a bit reluctant at first because it is a big deal selling your beloved family home and we are also going through a marital separation. To have Alan on board helping and more than happy to answer our concerns every step of the way has taken a huge burden off us. He has reassured us and even though the market is tougher, he still pushed to get us the best sale price. Not to mention the incredible way he and his associate Sophie have been there even after the sale, talking us through the process and helping with the deposit, I am grateful he has been there to support us.

Alan is always pleasant, nothing is too much bother for him. He has helped organise trades people to sort out a couple of small repair jobs that needed doing. He also worked really hard to make this deal go through as we had an offer on another property. We cant recommend him highly enough.

Alan has created a team with integrity. It is a rare thing to meet a sales team with such caring and integrity. His focus on the vendor and the quality of the marketing process is outstanding. Keeping us updated and sharing the data as we approached auction was very reassuring. If their team stays focused on their approach they will outshine all the other providers.
