Testimonials

Professional and Diligent

Fiona has been a pleasure to work with from the initial meeting when she did our appraisal right through the process until the house was sold.

Her professionalism, knowledge, work ethic and customer service have made the process so much easier. At all steps along the way, Fiona kept us informed and it was clear that she was there for the vendor and getting as good an outcome as was possible.

Her reports were very detailed making it very clear how the market was reacting and were always received in a timely manner.

Fiona's warm, friendly but business like approach made the vendor confident that Fiona understood the market. Nothing was too much trouble.

We have every confidence in recommending Fiona to others who want to put their house on the market.

Thank you, Fiona, for your diligence. The knowledge and expertise that you have built up over a number of years was clearly evident.

Throughout the process she was polite, approachable, and incredibly easy to communicate with. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble, and we always felt well informed and in good hands.

A Seamless Sale

We had such an easy sales process. Fiona is extremely experienced and knowledgeable. We were very impressed with the marketing plan, especially the superb handout booklet showcasing the property with fantastic photos. We had regular, clear communication on any prospective buyers and given advice on the process. On receiving an offer, Fiona was efficient and promptly negotiated with the buyer's solicitor on a mutually agreeable sale. What we thought was going to be a daunting process ended up being a seamless one.

Danielle & Neil – Buyer

"Fiona Proves Invaluable"

We were delighted to be able to engage Fiona Harper to sell our house, based on the recommendations of friends & family. Fiona is so energetic & real estate savvy and proved her value at our first contact. Her proposed method of sale, marketing plan, arranging house photos, getting a house plan drawn etc and display on real estate platforms happened in quick succession, with regular communication .
9 private viewings followed over the next two weeks, followed by a keen offer. Within 4 weeks the SOLD sticker was placed over the for sale sign at the front berm.
We have no hesitation in recommending Fiona as a top choice to sell your property.

Annah Kight, Director – Mackersey Development

Fiona has now sold two properties for us.
We have found her to be honest hard working and very realistic when taking property to market. She is an excellent communicator and we always felt like she understood us.
Our overall experience has been 10/10 and she certainly knows how to get results. We would have no hesitation in recommending Fiona to prospective vendors.

Steve and Caroline - Vendor

I live out of town and the house needed to be organised ready to be put on the market which was difficult to sort out from a distance, but also because of time pressures due to my work.
Fiona just sorted everything out including electricians to change old light fittings, a glazier, cleaner, someone to make the carpet look its best rather than replace them, a gardener for an initial sort out then maintenance while the house was on the market and before it went to the new owner.
Fiona made it all so straight forward. The house was on the market for three weeks and we had four offers and sold that day. I am very happy to recommend Fiona.
She communicates well, gets things sorted quickly, and I felt I could just pass it all over to her to sort out while I got on with what I needed to get done here.
