We now own a most suitable house in the position of our dreams thanks to both Linda Jeffcoat and Nick Wooldridge at Stacks. Our requirements were specific and the riverside property they found for us, with mooring, was acquired only because of their professionalism and tact all the way through the buying process and beyond. We heartedly recommend Stacks for their first class service and we are grateful for the pleasure of working closely with Linda and Nick.

When we came last year to setting about selling two properties and buying another one we found ourselves entering a market that had changed in many respects since our previous experiences several decades ago. One thing that struck me as we got going was that, whilst there was advice and support available to us, in particular from estate agents, on the selling side, there was no one to advise and act for us, and put our interests first, on the buying side, which was in many respects the more difficult and important side for us.

It was only then that I became aware of the developing profession in this country of buyers, or search, agents. And after some research I rapidly concluded that this was the missing piece in the jigsaw I was looking for and, as you know, after discussions with several agents we asked you to act for us and have not regretted doing so.

Given that we are both retired and have the internet at our disposal we could of course have searched for ourselves. But our early attempts to do so were not yielding anything but increased uncertainty and confusion and you were able, by taking on much of the responsibility and the effort, to enable us to relax and enjoy the process, and indeed adventure, rather than feeling bogged down in it. It was also invaluable to have someone to try out ideas on and get feed-back on the practicalities and alternatives. Along the way you were also able to provide advice on the selling side, such as on the choice of estate agents and the way they were handling the sales at the various stages.

When it came to your finding the house we eventually bought, you we able to give us confidence that we were doing the right thing and to conduct negotiations on our behalf with the seller on the price and associated arrangements. Your advice did not stop there as you commissioned surveyors and followed-up on their report and also provided guidance on many aspects of advice we were getting from our solicitors on the sales as well as on the purchase. Other areas on which you have been able to advise included bridging loans and suggestions for local tradesmen for any work to be done on the new house.

As I look back at the whole process I am confirmed in the wisdom and value of engaging a buyer’s agent. In particular, it is not just about finding the right house, but of having someone with relevant expertise and experience at one’s side, providing continuous advice and support on the many issues that can and do arise, and above all acting in one’s own interest. You did all that we could have hoped for, and more, and made a complex and difficult period for us so much less stressful than it would otherwise have been. Thank you for that.

My wife and I engaged Nick to locate a new house for us. Despite a fairly restrictive set of requirements, Nick located a suitable property and went out of his way to assist us with locating and engaging Solicitor, Architect and other professionals we needed. Nick was always very friendly, but professional and courteous to us and delivered a great service at a reasonable cost. We now look on him as a friend as well, and have no hesitation in recommending his service to others.

I called upon Nick’s services to locate a family home that we could return to after our assignment in Asia

I called upon Nick’s services to locate a family home that we could return to after our assignment in Asia ended. With three children we had a broad brief to satisfy our lifestyle, schooling and personal requirements but no specific location in mind. Nick was creative in his approach, came up with a good selection of properties and steered us in the most appropriate direction to locate the ideal home. From that point on Nick took control of the emotional process that is property purchase, leveraging his toolkit of contacts to provide support at various stages of the purchase to ensure a smooth transaction that ran to the timeline agreed by all parties. Nick takes great pride in his service, is an expert in his field and above all, demonstrated integrity in all our interaction with him. I would recommend his services.
