Alex has been brilliant to have on our team as we searched hard to find the right family house for our growing tribe. We recruited Alex at a time when we felt exhausted by nothing coming on the market that fit our needs and he provided the much appreciated bridge between agents and ourselves, liaising with them for all our questions and great as a soundboard when we needed him. The market has been slow and Alex very patient, always there when we called on him to set up meetings and give advice along the way. It has been wonderful to have Alex on our team, a truly honest and approachable guy who has helped make an amazing house now ours and we will always be very grateful for his warmth and advice along the way and who will, without a doubt, always be welcome to pop by for cuppa, he knows where to find us after all! :)read more

Alex was an absolute Godsend both with buying and selling. He helped us find and secure a house that we would never have found or considered alone and we love it. The whole process was made so simple as we could direct all queries through him and he was always accessible and thought of many things we had not considered. I hope we never have to move again but if we do I’ll be straight on the phone to him and would recommend his services to anyone!read more

Engaged Alex to help find our 'forever' home in a brand new location for us. Process was great, progressively focussing on key criteria then shortlisting and viewing candidate properties and locations. Resulted quite simply in a perfect match for us. Could not be happier with the outcome. Additionally Alex provides wide ranging advice from detailed location synopses to best trades services. He is very easy to get along with, listens carefully and is always sympathetic to our thoughts. Very happy to recommend to prospective bespoke buyers or sellersread more

We have used Alex on two occasions to sell our old house back in 2015 and to buy our new home this year. We wouldn't do this without Alex. His professionalism, expert knowledge of the industry, patient and calm manner took the stress of completing before Christmas. Thank you Alex for your incredible support, personable approach and honesty, you provide an outstanding service. Mr and Mrs Gillread more

Professional, knowledgeable, calm, caring and responsive. An excellent service and without his reassuring help I don't believe we would have sold our farm. A second career in the diplomatic service?read more

I used Alex's services in the past when I first bought my property near York a couple of years ago. His experience and local market knowledge was exceptional and I was able to find and then purchase a suitable property at a very good price.More recently, I consulted Alex on my plans to extend the property - in particular how to ensure I was adding maximum value to give me the best chance to remortgage post works/COVID. He made a number of suggestions I hadn't thought of and I was able to incorporate into my plans. Work starts in 2 weeks. Thanks Alex!!I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Alex and will be using his services again when the time comes to start thinking about moving house again.read more
