James Law guided my wife and I through a house search when we were not sure of either the area that we wanted to move to or what sort of house we wanted to buy. We were pretty sure that we wanted to move to Dorset but that was it.
We spent several enjoyable, sometimes stressful, hours in the car and viewing properties. James was patient, informative and had many perceptive thoughts, ideas and suggestions.
On the first day with James, he lined up a number of houses to enable him to accurately judge our requirements, likes and dislikes. The first house was one that we had skipped past with barely a second glance when we were looking on the main property sites. He described it as a curve ball that did not meet our original brief. However, after some indecision on our part and significant patience from James, we decided to offer on that very first property that we had seen.
James’s advice on the offer process, the amount to offer and making the offer was invaluable. He also suggested a number of contacts from chartered surveyors to boiler engineers to assist along the way.
I am very pleased to say that we are now happily living in our new house at the beginning of our time in Dorset.
We cannot thank James enough as we would not be here if it had not been for him.

James was a huge help not only in the search for our ideal property, but in securing it once we’d found it. Long story, but it was by no means a simple and straightforward process, and James was a dependable, trustworthy and tireless link between us, the agent and the vendor over a two year period. And we were all still speaking at the end of it!
James brings his wealth of knowledge about Dorset and neighbouring counties, combined with his legal and property background, as well as healthy amounts of patience, focus, and emotional intelligence. Ultimately it’s about getting the deal done and James will help you do that. Would highly recommend!

We contacted James at Stacks to help us find a property in Dorset. From the outset James was very professional – initially meeting us to discuss the parameters of our search , listening carefully to our requirements. He explained the state of the market , and the time that we should expect for him to come up with some options, and then was careful to make sure that he did not waste our time looking at several inappropriate houses that did not match our specification.
Once the right property was found he helped us achieve a successful negotiation and sale to us despite being one of three interested buyers. We were very happy with the whole process from start of search through to successful completion.
