I WOULD LIKE TO PERSONALLY WELCOME YOU TO SMARTHOMES, YOUR LOCAL ESTATE AGENT. We are driven by extremely high standards of customer service, which we think is the most important factor when selling your home. It can be a quick and easy experience but more often than not it can be slow, time-consuming and frustrating, especially when you are involved in complex chains or when you have fallen in love with a particular property. We are with you every step of the way, to hear your concerns, to keep you up-to-date and to advise you on what to do if things are not going to plan. Our staff are all highly experienced, well informed and motivated ensuring a sale effectively and as smoothly as possible. I founded smarthomes in 1998 with the aim of creating a company where personal service, care and attention to detail are all part of everyday life, that posses the vision and scale of a larger business, that is exactly what has been achieved – through hard work, a great team and a whole lot of enthusiasm for what we do! I am immensely proud of my whole team for their commitment to our customers and I hope you allow us the opportunity to show you just how good we are! Jamie Smart
