    Testimonials from Sellers

    • Seller Testimonial

      ..thoroughly professional yet friendly
      Not living in the area where our holiday home was to be sold, meant that we had little knowledge of local estate agents but when we had agents around to give us a valuation, Darren Spratt from Fisher Hopper really stood out. He had thoroughly researched all the local properties for sale locally and provided us with a huge amount of information with which to make decisions. He was thoroughly professional yet friendly. It was an excellent choice. Darren and his team kept us fully informed about the process, by e mail and phone calls and gently held our hands when the sale had a blip. Once back on track, the sale was handled quickly and efficiently. We would certainly recommend Fisher Hopper and are very grateful for the help and support that they gave us. Many thanks
    • Seller Testimonial

      ...extensive knowledge of the local market
      Darren & the team provided a 5* service from beginning to end. We were selling a second home so were not on the spot. We were highly impressed with Darren's extensive knowledge of the local market at the outset & the whole process was dealt with professionally & efficiently by everyone at Fisher Hopper . Quite honestly the most painless transaction we have ever experienced. Would highly recommend

      We'd recommend them very highly
      Our second sale with Fisher Hopper. Such an efficient, enthusiastic and professional service - easy to see why Darren and the team are the market leaders. They kept us updated, chased solicitors and developments all down the chain and really took the stress out of the whole process. We'd recommend them very highly
    • Seller Testimonial

      Did a brilliant job
      Did a brilliant job Darren took time and trouble to get photos right to display the house ¿¿ as it is. They all did brilliantly keeping me informed throughout. A pleasure doing business with a thoroughly professional company. Wouldn't hesitate in recommending them actually do something rather than just stick basic details on right move etc. Thank you

    Testimonials from Buyers

    • Buyer Testimonial

      ..agent of choice in the area
      Tracy and Darren from Fisher Hopper were absolutely brilliant in securing us our home in Lower Bentham. They have been extremely supportive, with great communication between us and the vendors and really easy to work with. We felt in safe hands with Fisher Hopper and would recommend them as the estate agent of choice in the area anytime.
    • Buyer Testimonial

      ...brilliant throughout the process
      Buying your first home is a daunting and unfamiliar experience but Fisher Hopper were brilliant throughout the process! Keira was always there to answer any questions, no matter how big or small, she always made the time to reply and nothing was too much trouble. Keira was able to explain to us the process, what our next steps were and keep us on track - she was truly wonderful and we will be forever grateful for everything she has done for us! I'll definitely be recommending Fisher Hopper in the future!
    • Buyer Testimonial

      ..integrity, customer care and support
      We spent a while hunting for our first home in/around Ingleton and really appreciated the help received from the team, but especially from Darren. He has been incredibly helpful, honest and clearly knows a lot about the properties listed. In addition to this he listened carefully to our needs and gave us excellent advice to allow us to make fully informed decisions going forward. As first time buyers we had a lot of viewings with competitors which were rushed, unhelpful and left us with a lot of unanswered questions. With Fisher Hopper we felt the viewings were outstanding, not only because we weren't rushed at the property but also because we walked away feeling fully informed. As a buyer you don't have much more than luck with who is selling your next house, but I cannot begin to describe the relief we felt when we saw who listed the property we've now bought. Their integrity, customer care and support isn't just excellent, from our experience it is the best
    • Buyer Testimonial

      ..above and beyond
      A great experience, we were thoroughly looked after from start to finish and Darren went above and beyond to make sure the sale went through smoothly. Couldn't recommend highly enough!
