I would have no hesitation in recommending Emma, Barry and the team for being extremely responsive and attentive to both buyers and sellers. They have a very good knowledge of the local area and housing market & have been in business for many years.

This is the third occasion I have used Direct Moves, and I am as pleased now as I was on the first occasion with their efforts. They are both professional and effective in marketing and completing on sales for the benefit of both Seller and Purchaser. Once again thanks everyone.

Barry and his wonderful team have honestly made a stressful event enjoyable. From the initial valuation, to the photographs, to Kathryn's help with marketing. What can I say? I highly recommend this very knowledgeable company with their great customer service.

We met Barry at a property in Broadmayne, from the getgo we struck it off, a more pleasant, personable person you couldn't want to meet. It isn't true what Taney say about estate agents, well, not all of them, this man is an exception. All we ask for is transparency and honesty, we got that in bucket loads. Sadly ( for us) we didn't buy the property only for our personal reasons, I think Barry knew from his experience that we were genuine, but as I say it wasn't for us.

We have now added our name to Direct Moves DataBase and hope that they can find something for us that ticks all our box's in the near future and we look forward to meeting them again. No Barry, you can't have our car. You are a Star.

Vicky at Direct Moves showed me two properties yesterday. She had great knowledge and really understood my requirements as a buyer. She followed up with crucial details which left us confident to make a solid offer and secure the deal. Thanks Vicky!
