Exceptional service from Kirstie

Exceptional service from Kirstie! A massive thank you for being there from start to finish. As this was a leasehold flat sale I knew it was going to take some time but Kirstie was excellent throughout. I was kept updated at every hurdle and at every turn of the sale process, even when there was no update, Kirstie was in contact letting me know what was going on. Nothing was too much trouble and all my emails were answered in an instant, I was never kept hanging on. Excellent, exceptional and faultless service and just a truly awesome experience in what can be a very stressful time. Thank you

I have nothing but praises for the whole team at Watersons Hale. In particular, Peter, Kirstie, and Joel deserve nothing less that 5*. They have been very proactive, professional, supportive, kind, sympathetic, and easily approachable, in anything, no matter how difficult, arising during the process of selling my property. They have been able to find solutions to everything very quickly. Their advice and help have been invaluable to me. There has been nothing they would not help with. I would like to very highly recommend Watersons Hale to anybody considering to put their property on the market. A million "Thank yous" to the whole team.

Highly recommended

We put our house on the market with the Hale office and would highly recommend them. Despite issues at the top of the chain that were out of their control, they secured good offers on our property very quickly both times we listed it. Kirstie worked hard on our behalf to negotiate between the parties and was great throughout. We were always able to get hold of the office without delay whenever we had any queries and each member of the team we spoke to without exception was extremely friendly, helpful and efficient. We would definitely go back to them in future.

Great service!

Great service from Watersons Hale when selling our property.
Communication from Joel, our assigned person was outstanding at all points in the sale process, with prompt responses to emails and no question unanswered. If Joel was not in the office all staff were able to respond in a timely manner. What can be one of life’s stressful processes went very smoothly! Thank you!

Thanks to Joel and the team !

Firstly I would like to say a massive thank you to the team at Watersons. Joel did an amazing job coordinating the sale of my parents house. Friendly, calm and efficient at all times. This was exactly what we needed during what was a very difficult time for the family. Nothing was too much trouble. All queries were dealt with and advice given where appropriate. Thanks once again Joel - a job well done and highly recommended all round.

Thank you Waterson's and Ryan!

I dealt with Ryan in the purchase of my first property. He was incredibly efficient and excellent at communicating. Very pleasant to deal with. Also received a lovely framed gift on completion. Wouldn't hesitate to use Waterson's or Ryan if I am looking to sell at any point in the future and would recommend them to others.

Excellent service from start to finish - from initial contact and house visit through to negotiation of house sale. Professional throughout. Both Pete and Danielle offered experienced advice and then Ryan managed the sale with really good communication and efficiency.

Excellent service from Watersons

Excellent service from Watersons. Their support through a protracted sale (no fault of theirs!) was first class. In this regard the senior sales advisor Kirstie was absolutely superb. No hesitation in recommending them.

Excellent all round

Watersons have been brilliant with the sale of my house. We had an offer within a few days of going on the market. Ryan and the team handled the sale efficiently and promptly and they are always fast in replying to any queries. Ryan was a big help when things got a little stressful, I would highly recommend using them above other agents in the area.

Watersons - just brilliant

I’ve used Watersons more than once to both buy and sell houses. Everyone in the team is great. They go far beyond the service received from any other estate agents and their local knowledge of the market is second to none.
