    FASTER CONVEYANCING, FEWER HOLDUPS

    • paragraph

      Buying a home is often the largest single transaction you're likely to undertake. For a sale to go smoothly you need an Estate Agent and a Solicitor who talk to each other. Professionals who don't communicate can cause frustration and delay.

      That's why we recommend our in-house law firm Slade Legal for a straightforward, cost-effective and seamless legal service. As one of the area's leading conveyance firms, their highly experienced team of property lawyers offer a professional, reliable and efficient conveyancing service. And as members of The Law Society's Conveyancing Quality Scheme (CQS) they are fully qualified to take care of your sale or purchase.

      By working so closely with Slade Legal we can ensure clearer communications and fewer hold-ups, and help to make selling your property a pain-free process.

      Thanks and gratitude for the wonderful service...

      • Introduction

        Dear Warrick

        We are writing to express our thanks and gratitude to Hodsons for the wonderful service provided when selling our house. The whole process from start to finish was slick and all promises made were delivered upon. This was our first move in 40 years; what originally seemed like a daunting task was made so much easier by the Hodsons team.

        Special thanks must go to Maxine Roberts from the Abingdon team who went well beyond her brief by helping arrange many of the associated items that go with moving home. Maxine's patience and understanding for our particular circumstances was exceptional. She is a naturally intuitive agent who we cannot commended highly enough.

        We are now very strong advocates for Hodsons and will be recommending them to all our friends

        Best regards

      Testimonials from Sellers

      • Seller Testimonial

        I'd just like to thank you, Warrick and everyone..
        Dear Maxine, I'd just like to thank you, Warrick and everyone at Hodsons for the great job you've done at selling our house. It had been on the market with another well known Abingdon Estate Agent for a number of months with very few signs of success, yet within a month of you taking it on as a sole agent you had 3 offers on the table for us, one of which went through to completion in 6 weeks. It's been a pleasure to have had you working for us and we've been really impressed with your friendliness, professionalism and sales drive to get people through the door. I'd previously thought that the only differentiation between estate agents was the brand, however you've shown you can make a real difference through hard work, perseverance and great customer service. Many thanks

      Testimonials from Buyers

      • Buyer Testimonial

        Hodsons are a 1st class agent who really care..
        Hodsons are a first class agent who really care about their sales and purchase clients. Having now sold two properties and bought two properties, my experience has shown me that the Hodsons team really take time to get to know you as a vendor and a purchase client. I cannot speak more highly of Maxine who has been our personal agent for both houses that we've bought and sold; she worked tenaciously both when she was on a workday, days off and even when on holiday to make sure we were well informed. The rest of the team were superb too; Marie, Warwick, Nick particularly. If you are looking for an agent who will be very genuine with you, as well as working really hard for you, then look no further than Hodsons Abingdon. Thank you team!

I really did feel that you put people first and it felt like a personal service - I've since recommended you to two others who are now marketing their own properties through you". SM"
