Staff are full of enthusiasm, knowledgeable and friendly. The advice they gave on the sale of our house proved very good. Overall they gave us confidence that the marketing and sale of our house was in good hands. Jonathan deserves particular praise. We had an offer, which we accepted, Jonathan having negotiated a significant increase in the buyers initial bid,within 10 days of the house going on the market. I would recommend Direct Moves to anyone buying or selling in the Weymouth area

I used Direct Moves to sell my property and purchase another one and I was very happy with how they handled both the sale and the purchase. They managed to sell my property for the full asking price and the sale was completed within 2 months of putting it on the market. With regards to purchasing a property they managed to successfully negotiate a lower price as the survey found a couple of minor issues with the property. I would strongly recommend Direct Moves to anyone who is considering selling their property. Kind regards, Rhys Evans

The whole team are helpful and professional. We have bought 2 houses through Direct Moves and, from a buyer's perspective, found them to be honest, dynamic and full of integrity. We dealt mostly with Emma who is dedicated, proactive and a great communicator. We have no hesitation in recommending them - Sarah Baker
BUYER

Very good selection of properties at my price range. The negotiator kindly spent 1 to 2 hours with me after usual business hours on very short notice showing me properties. The transaction has progressed more quickly than most. Direct Moves helpfully renegotiated a fair price reduction on the discovery of damp in the survey. Impressed with their local knowledge, attention to me as a buyer and their know-how. Kind regards Mr Gafsen -

Direct Moves were incredibly helpful in assisting me with the purchase of my first house. From the moment I got in contact with them, they did whatever they could to help me. The sales team notified me of new properties they had coming onto the market before they went online which was useful and made me feel like they valued my interests. The viewing times and days were flexible, which was of great help to me because I worked away in the week and they catered to my needs. After the offer was agreed on on my property I was kept up to date by the post-sales teams and they were extremely professional, they answered any questions I had and worked hard to pursue any queries I had on the property. All in all, they made the experience of buying my first property a lot easier and less stressful than I imagined it would be. I cannot thank Direct Moves enough for the work they have done for me.

BUYER
May we thank all at Direct Moves for their help in our purchase of this property. We found that throughout the time we were looking for a suitable property that Clare was in touch with us weekly and quickly alerted us to a suitable property coming on the market. The friendliness and helpfulness of all at Direct Moves took the hassle out of what can be a fraught process.
BUYER
Dear Emma, Many thanks for your email and apologies for not being as prompt with the reply as you were to write to us! As I'm sure you appreciate, we first celebrated the end to the long drawn out conveyancing process and have since been rather preoccupied with arrangements and packing. Your professionalism throughout, calmness and voice of reason in the midst of what seemed like chaos, went a long way to helping us get through it. Please pass on our thanks and best wishes to all your team who have dealt with us in whatever capacity over the last few months. I have dropped a note to Mr and Mrs Wallace but hope you will also wish them good luck from us for a smooth move. We are very much looking forward to joining the community down on the coast. Our very best wishes to the whole team, Rob and Cathy Sage-
