ABOUT US

"

Dear Grant and Liv

Myself and Lizzi would like to Say a huge thank you to both of you. From start to end you two have been amazing, and we are so very grateful.

Grant you made it very easy at the start when I was not sure and confident of the whole process of buying a house you sat me and Lizzi down and gave us his time to explain how it works, to both of us this played a big part in us choosing to buy a house on this development as I wasn't given the time of day and respect at the other sites I visited.

Then we met Liv who dealt with us after we had shown an interest and decided it was the property we wanted. At this point I was still so nervous of the whole thing but Liv was reassuring and made it very easy with the paperwork and was persistent with the broker and solicitors to deliver on time which they all did.

You both are very professional and well presented in your roles, and also just two kind, great individuals. I think you two are a massive asset to your company and we wish you and Elevation the best for the future.

It's been a pleasure."

Luke north and Elizabeth Taylor.
