After initially giving our sale instructions to two other reputable and large "global' firms with flashy pitches, websites and promises and not getting the results we wanted despite being in the hottest selling market in the recent decade, I decided to call Stuart at Vickers who we originally bought the property from 6 years ago. Within a few weeks he was able to generate offers for us which eventually led to a successful sale - what was the difference? Having firms with global national footprints is great, but when you are trying to sell a family home in a very residential neighbourhood, you need to know your audience and how to sell the neighbourhood, and for that you cannot beat the experience and knowledge of what is an independent local agent (I hope Winkworth doesn't lose sight of this as they have now completed the merger with Vickers).

Read moreNeil and his team at WinkWorths Maida Vale did an outstanding job to get my flat sold.
In particular Gemma, who worked tirelessly to help get a tricky sale over the line. I’m quite sure that without her, the sale would probably have fallen through. I was consistently impressed at how she kept driving all parties forward in a fair but firm way, chasing all the stakeholders on both mine and the buyers behalf and keeping everyone informed throughout. Her dedication & persistence ensured any challenges were dealt with quickly & effectively.
As well as overseeing the sale, they helped to manage a number of issues at the property during the sales period as I had moved out of the local area. Again, they were quick & responsive on all issues.
