I found the whole team at Gower Dawes to be very helpful with all aspects of the house sale from start to finish. I was kept well informed by professional and friendly staff; they were quick to respond to queries and reassure on progress. I have no qualms about recommending their services to others. It was amazingly speedy too.

The team are amazing and super helpful. Really professional - Jordan and Jo were superstars at communicating and keeping us informed. We may not have been lucky with the property we wanted to buy this time around but would highly recommend them if your selling or buying!

Very careful with this Estate Agent. They are honestly greedy & unprofessional. They accepted my offer after confirmation with Vendor. I provided my all documents to them within 30 minutes. Also she already gave me solicitor price etc. They supposed to contact with my broker after two days 12pm. But rather than contacting with my broker they are taking other people's offer. Then my broker called to Jo Herbert.
I called them 1pm they said they have got another 3 more offer on table. I have to give my final price again. Even I gave final offer again which more than accepted price. They didn't accept it. What a greedy!

Booked an appointment to view a house, viewed the house and made an offer even more than the asking price and more than it's worth in that area. Never got any call back from the Gower estate agent. Atleast common courtesy should tell them to call you back and let you know if your offer was accepted or rejected. I had to call them 2 days later to check what's going on and was told on the spot our offer was reject.

This estate agent is a ASSET to this area. Amazing amazing amazing. We was first time buyers and so everything was soo new for us, but the beautiful team made every step so easy. Jordan was so helpful from the start and even when things didn't go well with the house we originally wanted, he was always calling us up to recommend other houses that he knew we would love, and we just got the keys to our dream home yesterday.
Thanks to his help and recommendation. Jo, where do I start, picking our calls up maybe 5 times a day and giving us the time of day when other estate agents couldn't be bothered to, she was helping us every step of the way, Tom- helped us to speed the process up and was so quick and efficient and just in general this whole team is amazing! They made everything as stress free and involved us and I think their best quality is how quick they are to respond to emails and calls. They truly care about each customer and it's amazing! Thank you thank you thank you
