We Can Help With All Aspects Of Moving

    Mortgage Advice 
    image cannot be displayed

    Only 36% of homes in the UK are owned outright, which means 64% of people need to obtain a mortgage. A lot of buyers think it is best to go to your bank and see what they say. However it is our job to let you know that is not always the best! We work with one single mortgage broker to give our clients the best advice to help them through their journey to move home. Speaking to a mortgage broker means you have access to the entire mortgage market and not just your own bank, which means you will end up with the best rate, best lender and best terms for you - it also usually saves you money!

    Solicitors 
    image cannot be displayed

    Agreeing a sale is one thing, but getting it through to exchange is quite another. So choosing a solicitor that can act for you professionally and promptly is so important. It could be the difference between moving or not! The average transaction time in the UK is sat at 16 weeks so having a very good solicitor to try and get you moved faster than that could also end up saving you money on rent payments or further mortgage payments. At Deakin-White we have tried and tested many firms and have hand picked a couple of options to recommend to our clients that we believe are right for you. We have built very close relationships with these firms which means we can pick up the phone and help deal with any issues that arise. Just remember, cheapest normally means not the best, and could cost you thousands in the long run!

    Removals

    We understand the moving process from start to finish so we know that finding a good removal company that are reliable and available when dates could constantly change is very important. That is why we have a catalogue of removal companies all over the country we can help you with. Moving home is not just agreeing the sale, it's the entire process from photos to completion day.

    Sometimes clients would like to get a survey done on the home they are buying for peace of mind and there is lots of options out there which can get confusing. With home buyers surveys, structural surveys and more, working out which one is for you can be a nightmare. That is why we have tried and tested RICS surveyors we can rely on to give you a thorough report to give you the peace of mind on your new home you are looking for.

    • Seller Testimonial

      SIMPLY THE BEST.
      Simply the best!!!! What can I say, you've had your house up for sale with another Dunstable estate agent with very little interest and then you move over to Deakin White.....Within two days you've sold your house and then find the house of your dreams with the help of the incredible Sarah Hollick. Nothing was ever too much trouble and in these days of everything being online she helped us with every step of the way. I would also like to mention the rest of the Dunstable team: Taylor, Elliot, Rian (now at their Wing office) and the wonderful Nicki. Most of our dealings were with Sarah but I need to give a shout out to Nicky. Whenever Sarah was out on a viewing or a well earned day off Nicky was always there to help. These two women are the first faces you see as you walk in the door and they put you at ease immediately with their warmth and are willing to help with any query big or small. So as I said in the beginning you won't get a better team, SIMPLY THE BEST.
    • Seller Testimonial

      within 2 days our house was sold
      We were with another estate agent with very little success but as soon as we chose DW within 2 days our house was sold. During the following 4 months to when we moved, DW could not have been more helpful. The whole team at the Dunstable branch (Taylor, Rian, Elliot and Nicky) were so accommodating. A special mention has to go to Sarah Hollick who is the most cheerful, fabulous person we could have wished for, from showing us around our new home to the moment we received the keys. In this day and age when everything is online it can be so stressful trying to get everything done correctly, so when you have someone like Sarah who went beyond the call of duty helping two (not hugely technically minded ) people to go through the process online was incredible, we could not have done it without her. I would recommend this fabulous team to anyone who want to sell/buy a house.
    • Seller Testimonial

      they were by far the most welcoming
      I went into the office to ask for a valuation of my home . They were not the only agent I went into but they were by far the most welcoming.
