Top job by a great team
Andrew B – November 2024
Just purchased a property and found the service at Perry Bishop to be exceptional. Dealt with Stephanie and Jade who both did all that they could to help proceed the sale as quickly as possible. Both were always quick to respond to phone calls and emails and were very knowledgeable and professional. We felt as though they were genuinely happy to help and pleased to be able to take the pressure off caused by solicitors delays. Would definitely recommend and use them again if the need arises.
Dianne C – November 2024
Great experience selling with Perry Bishop Cirencester. They produced a great brochure and arranged an Open House event as this was more suited to my lifestyle. This resulted in 9 viewings and 5 offers. Everyone was a delight to deal with but special thanks to Stephanie who was there from the get go, Jo for doing the Open House and Jade for chasing when needed after the sale was agreed.
