I have to give a shout out to Ross Young, he really is a huge credit to beresfords. He is so easy to talk too, he goes through everything clearly, very supportive, reassures you that he will do everything he can to help. Any time I’ve got in contact with him, he’s always quick to respond back. 5 star service. Thanks again Ross, it’s been a pleasure talking to you.

Thumbs up to Jazmin in charge of visit bookings
Jazmin has been great with the booking emails. She always send a reminder at least 5-6 weeks prior and when I've needed to reschedule, she has been able to work with my plans.

Kasey Vann at Beresfords Witham
Kasey Vann at Beresfords Witham is everything an estate agent should be, kind, caring, and absolutely not the stereotype we so often hear about. From start to finish, she was thorough, proactive, and always kept in touch. Any time I needed to speak with her, she either answered straight away or made sure to get back to me promptly.
This review is from my experience as a buyer, and I also want to acknowledge how supportive she clearly was of the sellers. Communication throughout was clear, honest, and professional, which made the whole process feel calm and well managed. It genuinely felt like a collaborative working relationship, with everyone kept informed at every stage.
Kasey truly has your corner. When the time comes for us to sell in the future, there is no question — we would never use anyone other than Kasey. There is simply no one else I would be willing to work with.
Kasey, I cannot thank you enough for everything you have done for us. Beresfords Witham truly have a gem working for them, and I sincerely hope they value you and commend you for the outstanding work you do.
Highly, highly recommended.

Many thanks Jess for the fantastic feedback for Kasey who is based at our Witham office. You will have been in very safe hands as Kasey prides herself on the quality of her customer care. From the first point of contact, she will do all possible to match people to suitable property, guiding and supporting throughout the process. With her knowledge and expertise, she is perfectly placed to overcome any issues that may arise once a sale is agreed. Kasey will appreciate your 5 star award and kind recommendation, and look forward to assisting you again in the future.
