Absolute Homes - Very Impressed
We had the good fortune of finding Rob and Absolute Homes when we decided to step into the rental market for the first time. Simply put, Rob is a professional. He guided us through the process of putting the house up for rent, secured tenants and kept us fully informed at all stages. When we decided to sell the property, then Rob was highly knowledgeable of the local market and used his skills to help us secure a deal. We would thoroughly recommend speaking to Rob.

Absolute Homes acted for the seller of the property we have just purchased. Rob has at all times been extremely accommodating, prompt at responding to any queries and courteous. Thank you for your help and support in smoothing out the purchase process.

Rob really understands houseboats and living on the water. He produced a fantastic brochure - his photos were absolutely excellent as was his copy (descriptions). Most importantly Rob made sure potential buyers knew all of the unique aspects of buying a houseboat (even though ours is/was static. We therefore had no time-wasters and though the numbers of viewings was much smaller than for a house, each buyer had the means to purchase and understood what they were buying and had already answered many of their questions before they came. He always gave timely and honest feedback on viewings and although he was working for us and in our interests, he was always scrupulously fair and open with potential buyers. You cannot get a mortgage to buy a houseboat, so it is immediately only really true cash buyers who can be a realistic purchaser. I would not hesitate to recommend Rob if you live on or by the water.

Rob King sold our property against the deteriorating financial situation and despite several time wasters and certainly earned his commission
Excellent service with a human heart
We can recommend Absolute Homes and Rob without any hesitation. From first contact until we finally took possession of our houseboat Rob was amazing - guiding us through all the complicated details, keeping us informed, remaining positive and creative in finding ways forward. Nothing was too much trouble for him. As has been said before - not your 'ordinary' Estate Agent. Thanks Rob!

EXCEPTIONAL SERVICE
From the first meeting with Rob to our moving day our experience was first class. Rob communicated with us all the way through the process in a very professional way whilst at the same time being very friendly and kind. He went out of his way to expedite the purchase of our new property. I cannot do other than to thoroughly recommend his company to anyone looking to buy or sell property.

We cannot recommend Rob from Absolute homes enough, he is one of the most professional, enthusiastic and helpful Estate Agents we have ever come across. He communicated throughout the whole process and worked tirelessly on our behalf in order to secure our dream property. If it wasnt for Rob going the extra mile our house move would not have happened. We will be forever grateful for his patience throughout a very complicated move and nothing was too much trouble. If I could give more than 5 stars I would.
