Mike Symons was helpful and professional throughout our purchase and really went above and beyond as the vendors agent. He was friendly and always available and even assisted with getting our own buyers to move more quickly when needed. I highly recommend Rowland Gorringe Uckfield.

Report
We have just purchased a property through Rowland Gorringe in Uckfield. From start to finish the service we received was outstanding. The staff went the extra mile for us for which we were most grateful in what was a traumatic time for us with constantly changing completion dates adding to the stress. I would highly recommend Rowland Gorringe if you are considering buying or selling in the Uckfield area. Look no further!
