Places of interest

    At Mansell McTaggart we've hit on a unique formula that directly benefits our clients. We're actually a collection of different businesses operating under a common system and linked by the latest technology. This means you get the broad coverage offered by 17 offices, yet the focus and dedication that you only get with an owner-run business. Many agents, when you sign up with them to sell your property, will tie you to using them for 20 weeks or more. So if you find you’re unhappy with their service or that they’ve, say, overpriced your house just to get your instruction, you can’t move to another agent until that period is up.  At Mansell McTaggart we think contracts like this are unreasonably long and restrictive. After all, it should be the service you receive that keeps you with an agent, not the law!

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on September 28, 2022

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on September 28, 2022

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
