“Josh Billinge (Resales Property Consultant) and Callum Bailey (Resales Sales Progressor) were great from start to finish. I really appreciated the way they helped me navigate the final stages of the buying process, particularly in getting everything over the line in time for the moving date we were hoping for. Callum’s guidance, reassurance and chasing people up at the end made a real difference. Both Josh and Callum were friendly and reliable so I’d like to say a big thank you.”

“I have recently used McCarthy & Stone Resales to sell my mother’s apartment. The service I received from Julie Samuels was outstanding. She was a pleasure to deal with and did everything she promised. Julie is a huge asset to the company, thank you again.”

“We have just sold my mother’s apartment at Coopers Court, Yate. My son and I have been very impressed with our selling experience through McCarthy & Stone Resales from the moment the property was put on the market, until it completed. We were kept fully informed throughout the process and we felt that the Resales team were doing all that they could to help us sell the property. A special mention goes to Julie the Sales Progressor, who worked very hard and gave 110% in helping to manage the process through to a successful completion. We would highly recommend McCarthy & Stone Resales as selling agents.”

“I am extremely happy with the excellent service provided by the McCarthy & Stone Resales team throughout the sales process of our apartment at McKinlay Court in Kettering. Although McCarthy & Stone Resales are slightly more expensive than the other high street agents, this has proven to be money well-spent and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.”

“The team at McCarthy & Stone Resales were incredibly friendly and helpful, from our very first enquiry to the completion of our property purchase at River View Court. The service provided throughout was excellent. Thank you for your assistance.”

“The whole buying process with McCarthy & Stone Resales was very easy and clear. We opted for the part-exchange process which alleviated the uncertainty of how long it would take to sell our own property. We are extremely pleased with the whole experience. Thank you!”
