We cannot fault the service we have received from this company. We have dealt with them for many years managing a rental property on our behalf and finally completing a successful sale for us. Louise is very understanding of your requirements and took the hassle out of the rentals and sale. We have no hesitation in highly recommending them.

We came across Louise initially when we wanted to buy our first home, she was very thorough with us in explaining any queries we have, she made the whole process run smoothly and as efficiently as she could. She provide services you cannot fault at all, even though it was fairly long chain with so much delay, she helped us chase all other EAs involved in the chain for update. Louise is simply AMAZING at what she does, most importantly she helps make the whole process easier when you have her in your corner.

Louise has sold 3 properties on our behalf over the years. 2 of those she found buyers from just a few days to a couple of weeks. The other one took a little longer but was at a very difficult time in the market due to Covid19 issues. Louise is very knowledgeable of the housing market with many years experience. Louise is friendly and helpful and a delight to deal with. Very professional friendly service and we would not hesitate in recommending Louise of Urban and Country Estate Agents.

I am writing to express my appreciation to Louise and her team at Urban & Country. Having had various levels of involvement with estate agents recently as my son and his girlfriend search for their first home, it was a welcome breath of fresh air to meet someone who actually listened to their needs and cared enough to go the extra mile in helping them secure the house they had been looking so hard to find. The total honesty, care and consideration shown is beyond measure, everything happened quickly and as promised, calls returned, questions answered immediately, time taken to explain, absolutely no misleading conversations had at any point.
