Great advice!

“Our experience of Charles Louis, from start to finish, was fantastic. Zoe seemed to know everything you could possibly need to know about the house (including all the neighbours!) when we first viewed it with her and was very accommodating when we asked for a second viewing the very next day! Our experience up until that point was that we often felt rushed when viewing a property or told to ‘call the office’ if we had a question.

Once we had our offer accepted, I found James to be very responsive and I was never left waiting if I emailed or text across a quick query throughout the process. Having a named person who I could just ring whenever was a massive win and removed much of the stress – I never once had to explain who I was or why I was ringing – it felt like a very personalised service. Having just moved to Ramsbottom we have already recommended them to a few people!”
