Hegarty’s - brilliant from start to finish
Hegarty’s have been brilliant from start to finish. They have constantly been on top of everything and instrumental in ensuring that the process has been smooth. They were the only ones who spotted the flaw in my original purchase and have been helpful and supportive throughout. Highly recommend Jody and the rest of the agency. Thank you Hegarty.
Jody specifically was a superstar and kept me in the loop and made me feel at ease with her efficiency and easy manner.
