A Fresh Approach To Buying & Selling Property
At Michaels Property Consultants we pride ourselves in being different. We don't practice as stereotypical estate agents: talking at people and hard selling.
We listen to our clients. Every customer is different, they have their own needs and timescales and we are dedicated to putting these first. With over 30 years combined experience in property, we have developed extensive knowledge of the local area and we are able to give our customers genuine, professional advice at all times, whether they're buying or selling.
We provide advice on what people really want to know, whether it be regarding schools, local amenities or even where to eat. We also offer a private service to investment buyers, assisting them in making the best decisions in building their portfolios.
Michaels understand that a person's home is more than likely to be their biggest financial asset, so we use the highest quality of marketing to ensure that we achieve the best price possible.
We strive to provide people with a customer service beyond their expectations and we are so confident in delivering this that if you are marketing your home with us and not satisfied, we ask for just 14 days written notice at any given time.
Testimonials
SELLER
Dear Alan and Colleagues , I just wanted to say thank you very much for the service and professionalism I have received in selling my property. At our first meeting I was unsure with the rent /selling option. Both parties came to the meeting and all my options discussed which was a great first introduction and impression. While I was refurbishing the house no pressure was put on myself as to when this would be available . Following placing on market , from leaving my house and driving to Norwich I had a confirmation from Alan an offer had been placed full asking price! Therefore the right potential buyers where identified and shown the property. Carla has been extremely helpful and efficient the last few weeks before completion . I have already recommended Alan to a neighbour whom has visited and I certainly would highly recommended your company. Thank you for your excellent service and attention. Sue Bevan

I cannot praise the team at Michaels Wivenhoe highly enough. They are everything you could hope an Estate Agent would be but never expect to actually find. They are polite, professional, calm and take all the stress out of the selling process. The valuation was spot on and Michaels dealt with all our purchaser's questions. We could not be happier and the commission is extremely reasonable too. They are a breath of fresh air. Huge thanks to Alan and Carla for all their hard work. Kate Brightmore

Dear Alan, I'm writing to thank you and your staff at Michaels for all your hard work and wide ranging help with the successful sale of Mum's house. From the very first phone call to the smooth completion of the sale, every contact I had with Michaels was professional, personal and efficient. I have admired each step of your work and valued your excellent advice and negotiating skill. Your recommendation of Hayward Moon to handle the conveyancing was spot on for the reasons you gave at the time, namely that they provide, like Michaels, a truly efficient, local and personal service. Estate agents don't always get a good press, but I have to say that my experience with Michaels defines the level of excellence to which all estate agents should aspire. I would not hesitate to give a personal recommendation to any of your potential clients. Please feel free to use this email as a testimonial. My very best wishes to you and all at Michaels.

Dear Carla, Please accept my hearty thanks for the successful completion of the sale of my property. A couple of unexpected complications arose which you handled very efficiently. Please pass on my appreciation to the members of your team for the patience with which they handled a load of 'damn fool' questions from me during the course of sorting out those complications. I would also be grateful if you could pass on my heartfelt thanks to Sarah for taking the sale on in the first place and chauffeuring me to an introduction with Mike Theeman. Many thanks to you all and a Merry Christmas. Yours sincerely Peter B Grant

Dear Mr Waterson, I would like to thank you and your team for the excellent professional service you have provided regarding both my sales and purchase. From the beginning, when you provided a valuation for the properties, you were straight forward and easy to talk to, and that has continued through both transactions. You have acted promptly and efficiently throughout the process, and I have been impressed by your continuous communication at each stage, especially during some of the more difficult moments. I felt that your fees were reasonable, and I would happily recommend you to anyone needing your services. Yours sincerely Mary Force

Dear Michael & Michael I would like to express how fantastic your local director in Wivenhoe is. Alan Waterson has given us exceptional service and gone above and beyond, including many out of hours emails and phone calls, whilst always being professional and polite. He has given fantastic advice and I really can't commend him high enough. We have been unlucky in our previous purchases that have fallen through and ended up moving out of Wivenhoe, therefore we have been dealing with Alan since Michaels first opened in Wivenhoe! I am happy to say that Alan has helped us move back and we are delighted with the service we have received. He really is outstanding at his job! Many thanks Leanne & Ross
SELLER
Hi Alan, Now that BT have connected us up to the internet I can write to say a huge thank you to you and all the team at Michael's Property. From our first meeting through the whole marketing process and on to exchange and completion I can honestly say that you and your team provided an exemplary, professional, honest, open and friendly service second to none. We had previously been with another local estate agent and were disappointed with them, so we were bowled over with your fresh and invigorating approach, and your well placed confidence in your ability to sell our home quickly for the price we wanted. Not all estate agents are the same, and we found Michael's to be exceptionally good! Wishing you and your team all the very best for a successful 2017, and Thanks again. Dave and Liz Poulter

BUYER
I couldn't recommend Michael's more highly. From the start to the end their customer service was superb. As a first time buyer, I didn't really understand the process and they were always so patient and informative with me. Even during the viewing process, each agent was always so helpful and nice. A lovely local service within a professional environment. Best Wishes, Abby Scot-Simmonds
