      "an excellent, 5 star,stress free service"
      Dear Sir Please allow me this little note to express the thanks of my wife and I for the most professional services received from your firm in connection with our recent purchase. Although it is appreciated that all property transactions are, de factor, the result of a team effort, all members within your office we had occasion to deal with were courteous, polite, informative and always found to be most helpful. You have Sir, an excellent team and although it would be quite unfair to single any individual member out for special mention you have a most valuable young asset called Darren who was our main point of contact among your trusty ranks! Many thanks again for what prove to be an excellent, 5 star, stress free service. Mr & Mrs G Tidworth

    • Buyer Testimonial

      "a thousand thank yous"
      To all of the staff that helped with our purchase, thank you.. a thousand thank yous! Mr & Mrs Eborn
    • Buyer Testimonial

      unfailingly helpful, friendly and professional
      We are writing to say how pleased we are with the service provided by the staff in your office. We have been searching for a property to buy for the last 18 months over an area stretching from Pewsey in the east to Taunton in the west so have dealt with approximately 50 different estate agents. We are of course aware that agents act for the vendor rather than the purchaser but were unprepared for how unhelpful and sometimes downright rude or even mendacious some agents could be in their dealings with us. Strakers Devizes office was an outstanding exception. We had dealings mostly with Nick Catlin but all other staff we encountered were also unfailingly helpful, friendly and professional. We were recognised on coming into the office and never had to repeat our search criteria. You always seemed to know the type of property we were looking for and went to great trouble to give us early notification of any suitable properties coming on the market and then promptly arrange viewings to suit our timetable. Your staff were always a pleasure to deal with and we are only sorry that we ended up buying through another agent and not Strakers. We have recommended you to all our contacts and if and when we come to sell the property we have bought in Edington there is only one agent we will approach. With kind regards Yours Sincerely Mr & Mrs Spicer
