I would highly recommend Suzy

I would highly recommend Suzy. As a buyer Suzy was friendly, helpful and was great at communicating every step of the way. Both Suzy & Hazel were fantastic and very professional. Could not recommend them enough. Thank you both!

I would sell through Suzy again in a heartbeat

I've had both the buying and selling experience through Suzy. As a buyer 5 years ago she's friendly, welcoming and has integrity - you know your offer will be fairly communicated to the seller. As a seller this year, Suzy & Hazel are a great team. Fair market advice and reasoning from Suzy. Communication is constant, she will really push to work out the status of the chain. You really get a genuine feeling with Suzy that she's as invested in the process as you. Her reputation precedes her and my experience this autumn shows it's richly deserved.

Professional, honest, practical, responsive

We had our heart on highly sought-after neighbourhood which seldom have properties coming onto the market. Suzy was great in fitting us into a packed viewing schedule and gave us honest and practical advice which led to a successful purchase of our dream home. A special shoutout to her team, particularly Hazel, who did not hesitate to drive out to my new home at the drop of a hat to assist me. Suzy and her team are responsive to emails and can be reached on phones easily - this certainly made the whole buying journey a great deal smoother and anxious-free!

Knowledgeable and personable: Amazing support!

We bought a home sold by Suzy Kirkwood and her team, and were beyond impressed with the service they gave. Suzy was always available to answer questions (even whilst on holiday!) and help move things along when needed. She brings clear expertise and enthusiasm that made all the difference in our sale. I couldn't recommend her highly enough. We were very lucky our seller went with her.

Best agent by a mile

Suzy is the best agent you'll ever use. She is friendly, personable and is always available to give your property the best chance of selling. Suzy really does go above and beyond and i can honestly, hand on heart say, my house sale would not have been as smooth or successful without her involvement. From start to finish Suzy's communication was excellent and the service was second to none.

Absolutely amazing estate agent

Absolutely amazing estate agent! Suzy was friendly, informative, professional and went the extra mile to ensure our property was marketed in the best way possible. Suzy doesn’t just sell a house, she personalised her service to be unique for our home, I order to match the perfect buyers to their new forever home.
We tried another agent first and their service lacked in communication and service, Suzy was a breath of fresh air and I would recommend her in a heartbeat for anyone looking to sell or buy a home. We sold quickly with Suzy’s help and she was so diligent at every step of the process and never left a stone unturned to ensure successful completion!
Thank you Suzy, you are one in a million!

A fantastic experience

A fantastic experience from start to finish. Having been an estate agent myself for over 15 years, my old company could learn so much from Suzy. Personal attention, great communication, admirable negotiating skills and faultless in keeping me informed and updated every step of the way. I would highly recommend Kirkwood agency for anyone selling their property in their area.

Asked Suzy to help after the High Street agents had failed to sell the property after 3 years of trying. She found the buyer on the first viewing and handled the technical side of move efficiently and without undue fuss. She has a very personal approach, doesn’t arrange viewings just for the sake of appearing busy and is very conscientious. Not the cheapest option but worth the extra. Highly recommended

Very good agent

We bought our property through Kirkwood's and found the whole experience very good. Suzy's personal touch is a real plus point to the stressful house purchase process, she was always on hand for questions/queries and kept the process moving along. We would not hesitate to call on her in the future, albeit we hope that is a long way away!!

Defenitley recommend

Suzy has been great with our property sale. We initially choose Suzy after meeting her when we were purchasing and were really impressed with the help she offered. Now as a seller Suzy has given us a really personalised service - from bringing items to help stage the house to access to a network of local trades people to make small home improvements to maxamise our sale potential. After agreeing to a sale Suzy has been relentless in chasing the rest of the chain and our solicitors to make the exchange a smooth and as efficent as possible for us.

Suzy has gone above and beyond

Suzy has gone above and beyond with a very difficult sale for her, due to the sellers (our mother in law) being a older lady who is not good with stress every thing that has happened suzy has been right on hand. I can not recommend her enough.

Dedication and professionalism

They say that selling a house can be one of the most stressful experiences in life and I’m sure many people would agree. However having Suzy with her professional and personal service ensured that I got through the experience in one piece.

Suzy absolutely recognises what clients are looking for and matches them perfectly.

Every hitch along the way was resolved by Suzy. It really didn’t matter how busy she was. The whole process seemed so personal and nothing was too much for her.

I managed to sell the house and complete within 3 months of putting it on the market.

Thank you once again Suzy

Review of Kirkwood Estate Agency: To Buy or not to Buy?

It is common knowledge that selling your home and moving house is counted as one of the most stressful experiences of modern life. It stands to reason therefore, that you need an estate agent that can be trusted.
My husband and I had decided to relocate from Maidenhead to be nearer to my parents in the Cotswolds. We had also decided that we were not going to be stressed about it, but it was going to be an adventure.
Suzy Kirkwood was friendly and professional. She valued and marketed our home with efficiency and showed absolute respect to us as clients. She never phoned during my working hours, instead leaving messages by email or text that we could deal with later. The buying and selling process was explained clearly and I always knew that I could contact her with any questions.
Suzy also explained that sometimes clients change their minds…I confidently assured her that wouldn’t be us. I couldn’t imagine starting on this process without seeing it through.
After two months on the market, a price reduction and two offers, we had seen over twenty properties in the area near my parents. The magic bullet of selling in the south-east to move anywhere in the UK was not as magic as we had hoped in the Cotswolds…
None of the houses we viewed were as spacious as our current home. If they were, they were too far out from my parents. We toured the villages and the outskirts of the town where they live and grew increasingly anxious. The adventure was proving to be more of an emotional rollercoaster than we had bargained for. We didn’t actually want to live in any of the houses which our budget afforded us. It looked like we were going to be one of those sheepish clients who withdrew their property from the market.
Having decided that it wasn’t meant to be, we needed to contact Kirkwoods. Instead of the stereotype of an estate agent pushing us to change our minds, Suzy was the absolute opposite. She was empathetic, kind and compassionate. She showed us courtesy and understanding and didn’t once try to change our minds. She acknowledged how emotional it is to move house and recognised that to change area is even harder because of the leaving behind of a community.
Suzy assured us of her help should we decide in the future that we want to have another go.
For now, we have learnt to be grateful for what we have and reinvest our energies in the home we have been in for over twenty years.
I cannot fault Suzy’s help, communication or conduct. It is good to know that her agency is one which is reliable, professional and compassionate.

Hi, Really appreciate the kind words. I understand that moving is one of life's top three stresses, Death, Divorce and Moving House and here at Kirkwood personal estate agents, we hope that we can reduce the stress and if some clients need to realise that moving is not always the right thing to do at that time, we totally understand. Glad we have a happy customer anyway!

Highly recommended real estate agent

We recently sold our property near Pinkneys Green in Maidenhead with Suzy Kirkwood from Kirkwood Personal Estate Agents acting as our agent.

We were delighted with her service from being to end. We found Suzy to be extremely knowledgeable about our area of town. She also had a number of suitable buyers on file which meant inspections even before the property was listed online.

She went above and beyond what one might expect in order to help us present our house to its best and maximise our sales price, and she worked tirelessly throughout the process to ensure to a quick sale and rapid exchange and completion.

We would have no hesitation in recommending Suzy to anyone looking to sell their property.

Suzy truly amazing

Suzy truly amazing! She is full of boundless energy and enthusiasm, and combines this with with absolute professionalism and commitment. She is always available (even when she's on holiday; Suzy you must stop this - it can't be good for your health!) She, quite simply, gets the job done with the minimum of fuss. I can't recommend her highly enough.

I cannot praise Suzy Kirkwood enough!

We purchased our house through Suzy Kirkwood. She was absolutely amazing. She regularly kept in touch and would be available 7 days a week before and after office hours. During our purchase there were a few difficulties with the chain and all the other estate agents involved had simply given up but not Suzy! Immediately she began trying to find solutions to enable the purchase to proceed. She even did this while abroad on vacation. Now you cannot get more personal than that. Other estate agents don't come close to Suzy Kirkwood her experience ,honesty and dedication puts her in another league. Thank you so much Suzy .

Brilliant from start to finish

After having my property on the market with an alternative estate agent for a few months with little traction or serious offers, I approached Kirkwood Personal Estate Agents and immediately felt the willingness to go above and beyond in order to sell my property and achieve a reasonable offer. The clue is in the name, that it truly is a personal experience and Suzy would be happy to take calls 7 days a week and respond in the evenings also.
I highly recommend Kirkwood Estate Agents and I will be sure to use them again when I look to sell.
