Report
Wilbys recently sold our bungalow in Staincross and the entire experience went very smoothly. Ben came out and gave us an excellent and realistic valuation, unlike some other who overvalued to try get the business. We had plenty of viewings and sold quickly for full asking price. Zoe kept us updated with the progress of the sale by email and telephone. We recommended them to our son and he has just sold his house within 3 days of going on the market for full asking price.

Report
We recently bought a vacant retail property through Wilbys and subsequently instructed them to let the units. Alex kept us informed throughout the process, his knowledge and understanding of the local market is excellent and proved vital in letting the units in a relatively short period of time at a market rent. We would highly recommend Wilbys commercial department and look forward to dealing with them again in the future.
