Thank you, Jeremy. Liz is a great source of local knowledge. Glad you are happy. Ocd GazTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After inviting numerous local Estate Agents to view and value my property for sale .... Paul and the team at Scoffield Stone were the standout choice. They truly know the market and, unlike the other Agents, took everything into consideration about my property before valueing. The other Agents appeared to be only interested in the square footage .... whereas Paul was also interested in the curb appeal, plot, location, position and potential of my property. His valuation prooved to be spot on as viewings and offers came in at a nice steady pace. The sale progression was also smoothly administered by the friendly Scoffield Stone team. Offer to completion took just over 3 months, which is well below the average of 5 months. I would highly recommend Paul and the team at Scoffield Stone.

I've known Paul Morris (Director) for 5 years, a man of great integrity & character.They thrive by reputation. Extremely knowledgeable, knows his selling area extremely well. Embraces technology.Amazing staff (Alexandra / Claire / Sally / Sam ) . I trust them implicitly. Highly recommend you try them. They will go the extra mile and do their very very best to provide an amazing service. Having the physical retail presence as well as online footprint is the best combo, it really worked for me. They sold my house in 8 days! You will not go wrong by using Scoffield Stone to sell your house and keep you advised. I'm so so glad i did.
