David Plaister Ltd, Auctions

I was initially considering rental, sale by private treaty or auction to obtain maximum value from a property. David gave me clear pros and cons for each, plus a recommendation, which was of a quality and clarity above that of the other agents I'd initially contacted. Having chosen to auction the property, numerous visits were well managed and discussions on how to maximise value were held when appropriate, demonstrating a flexible approach to potential buyer offers doing the marketing period. The auction sale was successful in achieving a very good price. Throughout the auction period all the team were very professional and responsive to all communications, engendering a level of trust that was appreciated, especially as I do not live in Weston."

I would like to thank all the team at Plaister's for selling my property. I chose Plaister as they have a real interest in WSM and the surrounding area,this makes their pitch of sale genuine. Plaister estimated the price of my property very realistically .They said it would sell at auction ,which it did. I found all members of staff very helpful.I have recommended Plaister to other people selling property.I was myself recommended to sell with Plaister from my solicitor. Plaister also support local charities, for example,Weston Hospice .This particular charity is close to my heart. " S.Pueschel

My sister and brother and I, as joint Attorneys, have just sold our parents' house via auction. From the very beginning of the process when Ed came to talk to us at the property, everything has been handled with top class professionalism. Every member of the team with whom we have had dealings (Ed, Beth, Justine, Joe, and Louise) are knowledgeable and efficient. They even seem to communicate with each other, which is a rare thing in offices these days! Telephone messages were passed to the correct person and if a promise was made for a ring back, this actually happened - every time! Good old fashioned values in a very 21st Century firm. Office staff were given the opportunity to have a look at the property before viewings started so that they could answer the questions of prospective purchasers with first hand experience. This is a very good idea! All prospective purchasers were accompanied to viewings by a member of the team, and my family were kept informed of the times of appointments. The auction itself was very well organised and we were pleased with the outcome where the property sold on the night, right in line with the original valuation. This was followed by a painless legal procedure which was carried out by the solicitors recommended by Ed, who are very used to producing auction packs and attending the events. All in all, I would recommend this firm to anyone, whether selling or buying. It is quite refreshing to encounter a team of people who know what they're doing and are happy to provide good customer service. They are definitely getting it right!" K Chaplin

In the current housing climate selling our house by auction had several advantages including knowing how much we were going to receive in advance and that the exchange of contracts would take place at the end of the successful auction sale. Never having sold a house by auction before David took us through the process in great detail communicating frequently about the interest being shown by prospective bidders, arranging convenient viewing times and advising on the guide price. He and his team were very supportive throughout from the initial valuation through to the actual auction itself. We would have no hesitation in recommending the process and using David's expertise. Thanks again for your help and support over the last few weeks. Best wishes. "Sue Walker

"Our experience of working with David Plaister and his team to enable the auctioning and sale of our property has been nothing short of excellent. From David's initial visit , the sale and completion of our property has happened in less than 12 weeks. The service was seamless, the marketing excellent and communication and feedback at all times was prompt, friendly and professional. Thank you to all concerned." M Matthews"

I would like to thank all of David Plaister's team for the professional manner in which they conducted themselves throughout the process of selling my property at auction. David himself was honest and frank about the valuation of the property and worked extremely hard to get the sell. Beth was very proactive and gave feedback with statistics of interest shown on the internet. I would certainly use David Plaister's team again and would also recommend." M.Wilcox

Having recently sold my investment property by auction, I was so impressed by the speed and efficiency of the David Plaister Ltd process that I have been recommending the service to friends ever since. My property was on the market with other agents for months prior to meeting David Plaister and on numerous occasions for one reason or another, sales were agreed and then fell through which was extremely frustrating to say the least. When the auction process was explained to me it just felt like the right thing to do. David fully advised me with regard to setting the guide price and then again with the reserve price. I attended the auction and witnessed a slick and very professional organisation deliver the auction leaving bidders in no doubt as to the process, or indeed what was expected of them. My property was sold for more than I was expecting, contracts were exchanged on the fall of the gavel...completion 28 days later. JOB DONE. I have no hesitation at all in recommending the David Plaister Ltd auction team. "Mrs A. Glozier
