"Karen Cronin at Bywater Herring has been invaluable to me.

I had to sell my father's property in the Midlands while moving him to a care home oin Surrey to be near where I live.

I've never had to sell a house before, and didn't have a clue.

Karen guided me in every way, and to save me keep driving up, she arranged for the heating to be turned on, she read the gas and electric meters. She has been a star from the moment I put the house on the market, right up to completion.

I will recommend Bywater Herring very highly"

"I am just writing to thank the team at Bywater Herring for all the help and support during the sale of my property. I found the service level from the sales team to be really excellent. As a Regional Sales Manager; service is something I understand and value.

I was guided and supported throughout the entire sales process by an experienced team and always treated with care and respect. I opted to work with Bywater's nominated solicitor which I found worked really well, as the sales team were able to keep me updated on a regular basis; as well as; also help proactively in keeping the whole process on track (which was highly relevant given the nature of the chain involved in my sale).

I would have no issue recommending Karen and the team at Bywater to other prospective buyers or sellers in the market who look for a cost effective service backed by quality and high service levels."

"Purchasing a home through Bywater Herring. Lovely team, couldn't do enough for us. Fantastic communication, at least once a week, nothing was too much trouble. I paid a different Estate Agent to sell my home, and had little to no communication at all! Bywater blew them out the water! First place I will go to in future."

C.J., Buyer
