    FASTER CONVEYANCING, FEW 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.

      THANK YOU HODSONS DIDCOT

      • Introduction

        image cannot be displayed

        This was my second time around with Hodsons. Amazing team. So patient and so helpful. And very supportive. I hope I will not move again but if I do, Im ringing their phone. Thank you so much for all of the help, so very greatful.

      Testimonials from Sellers

      • Seller Testimonial

        Thanks to all the team
        "Thanks to all the team at Hodsons for helping me achieve the sale of my house. Thanks for your friendliness, clear communication and advice. 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".

      • Seller Testimonial

        I can't recommend the team enough!
        We have recently sold our property with Hodsons Didcot and they were great throughout.Previously we had a bad experience with another local estate agent so were slightly sceptical about the whole progress. Initially we met Patrick who came across as a genuine nice guy, he was enthusiastic but not pushy. He then organized for us to meet Annita and Alan as they would be part of the process, which we also liked.They organised the professional photos which were really good quality (they are that great we would like to use them for our business) and got the house on the market.Throughout the whole process we were kept up to date with regular phone calls and emails.Our original buyer then pulled out of the purchase but the team did everything they could to get the house back on the market and sold again, which they did within 3 days. This meant we got to keep the house we were buying. At this point we realised that Patrick, Annita and Alan were incredible and really did everything that they could for us.Once we had sold Kerry then took over to be our contact and liaised with all the Solicitors, she is worth her weight in Gold for all the chasing she did especially towards the end. I can't recommend the team enough.

      Testimonials from Buyers

      • Buyer Testimonial

        She goes above and beyond to help.
        Myself and my husband found a house that we loved and leanne from Hodsons Didcot showed us around it and a few others. She managed to fit us in really last minute ( 2 hours notice if that ) and was so warm and lovely during these viewings . We have had lots of contact with Leanne since and she always keeps us in the loop and always responds to us the same day. She had been so understanding and helpful and she isn't our agent as we are from a different area but if we did ever want to move again once we move areas we would be sure to ask for Leanne to help us do this. Honestly shes such a lovely lady and I would say goes above and beyond to help where she can.
