My own experience was that Julie and Brooke have both been helpful in assisting us with our find a property for rent. I did read through the reviews and it did raise some concerns to how would I be handled. Brooke took the utmost care in her line of questioning, whilst it may appear intrusive, it's the end goal and her handling of the matter was correct as she better directed the viewing to a property we would like and overall everyone's time was saved in finding exactly what it was we would like in a property.

Some estate agencies can be pushy, this was not the case, in the end it's always going to be your choice. Julie ensured that all matters were dealt with and kept us informed with correspondence of the ongoing process. Kept things professional. Julie went out of her way to make sure the property was ready, I was starting a new job and wanted the weekend to relax in my new home, Julie took care of it all without a second thought. Thank you for the care pack, most appreciated.

I have to be honest, I went with GBP because they were cheaper than other estate agents. This was a good decision as the service I received from Paul and Victoria was excellent. They were always happy to help and always kept me informed of progress. My sale went through without any hitches and in a timely manner. I would have no hesitation in recommending GBP.
