Lawrence & Co were great when we were buying our new home, They were so helpful and supportive, I was on the phone a lot asking questions and needing guidance and they never made me feel a nuisance and were always really helpful. If I ever need to use an Estate Agent again I would use Lawrence & Co and would recommend them to anyone else. Thank you so much Mark, Alexa and Jo

We had an extremely positive experience buying a property through Lawrence and Co. Dealing primarily with Mark, we were made to feel valued, reassured and well-informed throughout every step of the process. If only all estate agents could demonstrate the same level of professionalism, curtesy and integrity as this company does - first class, from start to finish.

We would recommend this estate agents very highly. We recently purchased a property through Lawrence & Co and we couldn't of been happier with the service. They where incredibly professional from start to finish, negotiating an amazing price for the property we wished to purchase. Every time we called with a query, which was a lot as we where first time buyers. We were made to feel very valued, if our question couldn't be answered then and there, we would normally receive a call back within 24 hours. Jo and Alexa who dealt with were always very polite, personable and generally amazing. If we require an estate agent in the future, they will be our first port of call. 5 stars across the board.

Twice in the last 5 years, I have asked Lawrence & Co to sell a property and am extremely satisfied with their efficient, professional and friendly service. Alexa and Mark know the proprety values of the local area very well and on both occasions, within hours of the sale going live, I had a purchaser. I have been recommending Lawrence & Co and will continue to do so. Thankyou.
