Testimonials

We decided to go with Alistair after a very unsuccessful few months with a popular online estate agent. Especially with a baby on the way stress was high for myself and my partner and we needed to get moved as soon as possible.

Alistair sat us down and gave us an honest, no nonsense plan of ho...

Great communication and very friendly – Gordon (Bedlington)

Ali, compared to them is on a different level – Colin (Newbiggin)

Just a quick thank you to Ali & Laura for their great service. From the first time we met Ali we knew, by his vast knowledge of the market, his confidence and his reassurance, that we’d chosen the right agent for the job. The way he marketed the property was completely different to any other agent I know and our house was sold in no time. ...

I would highly recommend Ali and Laura – Margaret (Bedlington)

From a recommendation I contacted Ali recently after failing to sell my property through the usual big named agents. He knows the area very well and understands the markets. He gave me advice for works needed to the property and advice on a strategy and realistic selling price. The property has now sold STC off market. Excellent service.

Excellent Service – Craig (Bedlington)

We’ve got to thank you both, it was very difficult at times, but you seen it through to the conclusion and I can honestly say if it wasn’t for yourself and Laura, this wouldn’t of happened.

“Excellent service from beginning to end of the process” – Denise (Bedlington)

We've just completed our sale and purchase through Ali and Laura and we couldn't recommend them enough.

From th...

Myself and my partner recently completed the purchase of a property Alistair & Laura were marketing and we have been super impressed with the whole process.

Well where do I start! From the set up of the personal whatsapp group before Alistair even left our house, I knew he was going to be different… a truly modern and personal twist on your standard estate agent.

“IF I EVER SELL AGAIN YOU ARE DEFINITELY MY 1ST AND ONLY CHOICE” – JANICE

I recently purchased a house through Alistair and Laura.

ADVICE, SUPPORT AND KNOWLEDGE – CRAIG

I’ve known Laura and Alistair for the last 10 years professionally, working within the London market place.

BREATH OF FRESH AIR

Laura was absolutely first class from valuation through to getting an offer accepted.

She always provided excellent advice and support and answered any queries immediately – even on a Sunday! Also, once we pu...

VERY HAPPY – HANNAH FORBES

I am writing to put on record my positive feedback regarding Laura Watson your local property expert for the Bromley Area. I had lived in my semi-detached house for over forty-one years and so selling it was a daunting prospect. The Covid situation made the process and strategy for selling the house an uncertain prospect. I was initially unsure ...

LAURA WATSON ESTATE AGENTS – JOHN NICHOLAS-BRIGGS

Laura Watson was my agent for the second time in little over a year. I have been an executor of 2 estates and have had a house to sell on each occasion.

LAURA WATSON – NICHOLAS PRITCHARD

I have had a really good experience with Laura Watson. She has always answered the phone unless she on a viewing. She always called me back.

I would like to thank them both very much for...

HOUSE SALE – SALLY HARRISON-BAKER

We were sceptical of using an online agent as I have only ever used traditional Estate Agents. We had four valuations, which were all around the same price. Estate Agents have a certain swagger but we cannot rate our agent Laura Watson highly enough, she was professional, friendly and went way beyond our expectations. She seems to work 24 hours ...

BEST SERVICE EVER..THANK YOU LAURA WATSON. – CHRIS WILCOCKS

Outstanding support and advice from Alistair Harper and his colleagues that has led, fingers crossed, to a very satisfactory sale. WhatsApp group has worked well for communication and, thus far, I have been impressed with the ease of managing the post-sales.

In less that 2 weeks of meeting the property expert for our area, Alistair Harper, my flat is sold.

My wife and I would like to thank our estate agent, and specifically our “property experts” Laura Watson (initially), and for the bulk of the time, Alistair Harper.

THANK YOU ALISTAIR – COLIN PETIT

Unfortunately, our house purchase fell through due to problems at the survey stage. Laura Watson was the agent and was excellent to deal with.

ALISTAIR HARPER – SARAH HURN

We have just sold our flat through Purplebricks and should be moving into our new home soon. Our agent Laura Watson has been absolutely amazing! At first it all looked a bit daunting doing this ourselves but Laura was always there to help and give advice when needed. We can’t thank her enough for everything she has done for us.

Ali Harper helped to manage expectations as well as pursue a fair pricing of our property, one which I’m very happy with. He represented our position clearly to the buyers as well as advising on what he felt were the realistic prospects in the current slightly confused and uncertain market. I was selling amid the acrimony of a marital separati...

HE GETS MY VOTE – GRAEME MARTIN

Laura Watson was a fantastic consultant, she helped guide us from start to finish. It was a very stress-free transaction and we had constant updates and communication from Laura. We would highly recommend using purple bricks and if you can use Laura I would definitely recommend! Post-sale support was also a great help too.

A friend made a recommendation after selling and now I also recommend the same after selling. Alistair Harper was my local expert, he really looked after me and had my back every step of the way. Alistair work harder than any estate agent I’ve ever met, we sometime have calls late in the evening or at the weekend to discuss how the viewings we...

ALISTAIR HARPER IS THE HARDEST WORKING ESTATE AGENT – KY DO

All Testimonials


We decided to go with Alistair after a very unsuccessful few months with a popular online estate agent. Especially with a baby on the way stress was high for myself and my partner and we needed to get moved as soon as possible.

Alistair sat us down and gave us an honest, no nonsense plan of how we would market and sell our flat. Given there was a number of almost identical flats for sale in the same area we needed a competitive edge that he delivered.

We had one viewing and then that person made us an offer which we accepted.

With estate agents in the past this is the point where they drop out however Alistair & Laura kept us in loop and even chased people up when things were taking too long. I can't overstate how much this helped us. The conveyancing service that Alistair recommended was also brilliant and massively helpful throught the process.

I honestly think that if we had not ditched the online estate agent, we would still be sat in our flat stressed out, with no bedroom for our daughter. Alistair & Laura's services were worth every penny of their fee.

I would 100% recommend Alistair to anyone wanting to sell their property – Ross (Ashington)

Constantly keeping me posted and chasing updates. Great communication and very friendly. Help through difficult circumstances and completely understanding.

Thank you so much.

Gordon

Great communication and very friendly – Gordon (Bedlington)

We would definitely recommend Ali following our house sale with him. He is extremely knowledgeable about the property market and was incredibly helpful in advising how best to prepare and market the property.

We have dealt with a number of 'high street' agents over the last 10 years and the service provides by Ali compared to them is on a different level in terms of expertise, attention

to detail and personal service.

Ali, compared to them is on a different level – Colin (Newbiggin)

Just a quick thank you to Ali & Laura for their great service. From the first time we met Ali we knew, by his vast knowledge of the market, his confidence and his reassurance, that we’d chosen the right agent for the job. The way he marketed the property was completely different to any other agent I know and our house was sold in no time. He kept us updated every step of the way, answered any queries promptly and made the whole process seamless and worry free. If you’re thinking of selling your house I would highly recommend Ali and Laura. You won’t be disappointed.

“Excellent service from beginning to end of the process” – Denise (Bedlington)

We've just completed our sale and purchase through Ali and Laura and we couldn't recommend them enough. We've gone through our fair share of conveyancers and estate agents who haven't been the best to deal with, however, I can quite honestly say that Ali does not fabricate anything and is completely honest with you every step of the way. From the first meeting with Ali, I was instantly impressed with his knowledge of the area and transparency around the market despite us not looking for a new house - we knew that we were in safe hands if we progressed with the sale and purchase. We also chose their solicitor recommendation and I can quite honestly say that Carr & Co is 100% professional and thorough with everything that they do. Ali & Laura are professional, personable and consultative and keep in contact with you every step of the way. Even when things got stressful and I fired them a million questions, they were there to help explain everything clearly. Thank you again for helping us find our forever home when we least expected it to happen. Thanks for everything! Sarah & Dylan

“…we couldn’t recommend them enough” – Sarah & Dylan (Bedlington)

Myself and my partner recently completed the purchase of a property Alistair & Laura were marketing and we have been super impressed with the whole process. As first time buyers we weren’t 100% sure of the processes and what to do and they kept us updated and assisted in anyway they could, answering any questions and essentially letting us know what to discuss with our solicitor. Our keys were ready to pick up the day we came out of hospital from having our first baby and Alistair went above and beyond even dropping the keys off for us!! I cannot recommend enough they helped make a stressful time in anyones life so much smoother and would deffo use them in needed in the future. Thank you both so much!

“We have been super impressed with the whole process” – Georgia & Adam (Bedlington)

We’ve just completed both our sale and purchase through Alistair and Laura and really couldn’t recommend them enough. From the the first moment meeting Alistair, I was instantly impressed with his knowledge but also his unique way of business and knew we’d be in safe hands. Both Alistair and Laura treat us like friends rather than clients and kept in constant contact, sometimes late at night, which went above and beyond what you would expect from an estate agent. And even when things got a tad stressful, they were there straight away to keep us calm! I’m so pleased to see their business striving and going from strength to strength because they both deserve it. Thank you again for finding our perfect forever home ❤️

“From the the first moment meeting Alistair, I was instantly impressed……” Jen & Phil – Bedlington

FIRST CLASS SERVICE FROM START TO FINISH – MICHELLE AND TONY

Myself and my wife have just completed the purchase of a property Alistair and Laura were marketing and I have to say we couldn’t have been more impressed. Alistair was in regular contact with all parties throughout the process, even going as far as chasing up our solicitors! It wasn’t just during the purchase that we were impressed. We’d been looking for the right property for a few years without success. Alistair took ownership of our search, giving us the heads up on properties coming to the market which we may be interested in. He was always available to discuss any concerns we had and found solutions ASAP. Overall, very impressed and would definitely recommend.

OVERALL, VERY IMPRESSED AND WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND – ROY (BEDLINGTON)

Without doubt the easiest and most pleasant experience selling a property. From initial contact with Alistair he was amazing. Always at hand to give help and guidance. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him and Laura. Even when problems arose they instilled us with calm and confidence that there would be a solution.

THE EASIEST AND MOST PLEASANT EXPERIENCE SELLING A PROPERTY – CAROLINE (BEDLINGTON)

EXP who are they ? Well we almost fell foul of going through the same old rigmarole of which one of the local agents do we choose to sell our house and then spend all our energy chasing after them day after day. Then, we met Alistair through a chance viewing on a property we were interested in buying. The rest is history. He has raised the bar so high, other agents need to take a long hard look at their processes. Alistair is so passionate about owning the situation, always available and keeping in touch, he eased the stresses of selling from day one. #Gamechanger

GAMECHANGER – DAVE AND JO

In a world where good service is a rarity….this family estate agent set-up really sets the GOLD standard. No chasing to no avail, Alistair and Laura are literally at your beck and call…..with your personal WhatsApp group. From early morning and late night updates….to personal visits to reassure when things go wrong! Our transaction was anything but smooth….but Alistair galvanised the chain and helped us all push through. So if you are buying/selling and maybe want a bespoke approach to suit your situation, look no further. We couldn’t recommend highly enough. The Duffys

THIS FAMILY ESTATE AGENT SETS THE GOLD STANDARD – STUART

Well where do I start! From the set up of the personal whatsapp group before Alistair even left our house, I knew he was going to be different… a truly modern and personal twist on your standard estate agent. When things go wrong, you often find estate agents would wash their hands of you. Not turn up at your door in the midst of all the drama like Alistair did! I am never moving again but if I did, I genuinely wouldn’t go to anyone else! Everything they do has a very different approach, a hamper on move day, countless GIF’s (a lot of which went over my head 🤣), advice on properties which they aren’t even marketing! It’s not just about getting a sale here, it’s about helping people move into their dream home. Alistair and Laura, keep doing what you’re doing, you will take over the shire in no time 🙌🏼

I thought I needed a good estate agent to sell my house quickly(which they did, twice!). Little did I know what I really needed a good estate agent for was when things go wrong! Buyers let you down at the 11th hour and solicitors incompetence makes your life a misery, but Alistair and Laura helped navigate us through a horrendous 7 months, where everything that could go wrong, went wrong. I dread to think what would have happened had we not had Alistair on the end of the phone literally 24 hours a day. The amount of work he put in to keeping our purchase and sale on track was unbelievable. I could not give a higher recommendation. Thanks for everything guys!!

“Laura and Alistair were fantastic from start to finish, they generated so much interest in my property that it sold within 4 days and above asking price. They were there any time to answer any questions and helped me every step of the way. I would 100% recommend them and use them again.”

100% RECOMMENDATION

Hi Ali and Laura I just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for being so professional but yet feeling like I’ve known you for years I have never had such an easy purchase you have been there through every step giving fantastic advice Anyone who is selling a property should definitely use your services and the beautiful basket at the key exchange is a beautiful touch If I ever sell again you are definitely my 1st and only choice thanks again. Janice

“IF I EVER SELL AGAIN YOU ARE DEFINITELY MY 1ST AND ONLY CHOICE” – JANICE

I recently purchased a house through Alistair and Laura. Although most of the conversations I needed to have as the buyer were with my solicitor I regularly heard from Alistair and Laura, offering advice, asking if they could help with anything and just generally checking in. I really appreciated this, it was daunting buying an older house by myself and there was a few delays due to Covid etc. On the day I received my keys I was blown away, I received a hamper full of wonderful products. I would definitely use ExP again and will 100% be recommending their services to family and friends. Thank you again for everything x

DANIELLE – DELIGHTED BUYER

I have known Laura many years and she has sold at least two of our properties. She is now selling property in Bedlington and the surrounding area, with Alistair, who we found to be very professional and gave sound advice. Their pictures of the property’s they sell and marketing strategies works well and as far as I can see they have 100 percent sales record. I would definitely recommend this couple. Wishing them both the best for the future in their new business.

A HISTORY OF SUCCESS – PAULINE

A big thank-you to Alistair and Laura who have done an amazing job at marketing my Mums property and progressing the sale in super quick time. They did everything for us from start to finish. Would highly recommend for anyone looking to have a smooth and successful sale of a property. In all the years that we have bought and sold properties these are absolutely the most professional and efficient agents we have ever dealt with. Angela and David.

A BIG THANK YOU

I have recently purchased a property and although Ali and Laura weren’t directly involved regarding the purchase or transaction I was assisted expertly and very professionally by Laura who’s advice, support and knowledge was used to ensure our purchase went through without issue and as swiftly as possible. I would not hesitate to use their services in the future and I’d highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy. 👍

ADVICE, SUPPORT AND KNOWLEDGE – CRAIG

I’ve known Laura and Alistair for the last 10 years professionally, working within the London market place. Laura has many years experience working in Northumberland prior to London and knows the NE market well. I could not recommend a more driven, proactive and professional couple to work with, in order to sell your biggest asset.

PROFESSIONAL COUPLE – PAUL

Anyone wanting to move! I would 100% recommend using Alistair & Laura (Alistair Harper, Estate Agent Covering Bedlington & Surrounding Areas) A very professional couple with stacks of experience!

100% RECOMMEND – JENNY

I can honestly not recommend Alistair Harper, Estate Agents enough. Been an absolute pleasure to deal with so far and can only imagine they’ll make the rest of this moving malarkey as painless as possible. If you are thinking of selling up, definitely give Ali and Laura a shout. There’s a reason they’re currently the top rated estate agent in the area. 👏

TOP RATED ESTATE AGENT – DAN

Alistair operates with integrity and I have received a premium quality service throughout the whole process. I haven’t encountered another estate agent that takes the same time and care. We used WhatsApp to communicate because that was the best method for me and Alistair kept me updated at all stages of selling one house and buying another. He was easy to get in touch with and never failed to provide reassurance and advice when needed. It could have been stressful – but it wasn’t, thanks to Alistair.

PREMIUM QUALITY SERVICE – STEPHANIE

I was very happy with the expertise and very efficient approach of Mr Alistair Harper, from arranging the photographer to do the profile of my property, and the excellent help in organising everything for me, I felt very confident in his professionalism and it took any stress off my shoulders, it was brilliant, and also in his dealing with my property sale, and his friendly and positive attitude, it was a breath of fresh air, and I was very pleased that he achieved the sale of my property in a very short time scale. I would recommend him to anyone who wants to sell their property as he is a credit to his himself and his company, and for all his hard work. Many thanks once again from a very happy and satisfied customer. ANGELA

SALE OF MY PROPERTY – ANGELA

Alistair Harper has been absolutely amazing, very knowledgeable and honest about the current market. Responsive day and night 7 days a week and so supportive throughout. He managed to get us the full asking price! We went to him after 2 failed experiences with agents on the high street, Alistair was a breath of fresh air! If we had to score him out of 10 he would get an 11.

BREATH OF FRESH AIR

Laura was absolutely first class from valuation through to getting an offer accepted. She was spot on with valuation in order to get a maximum number of viewings and we had two offers on our house quickly as a consequence. She always provided excellent advice and support and answered any queries immediately – even on a Sunday! Also, once we put in an offer on the house we wanted to buy the other agents found they could contact her very easily to verify the sale of our house.

LAURA WATSON – ESTATE AGENT – NISBET

Laura Watson was the estate agent I had contact with and she was great. Really helpful and supportive! It was a very smooth journey from looking at the property to putting in an offer and having it accepted. Thank you!

VERY HAPPY – HANNAH FORBES

I am writing to put on record my positive feedback regarding Laura Watson your local property expert for the Bromley Area. I had lived in my semi-detached house for over forty-one years and so selling it was a daunting prospect. The Covid situation made the process and strategy for selling the house an uncertain prospect. I was initially unsure about using Purple Bricks because the fee you charge does not depend – in individual cases – on achieving a sale. Throughout the fairly drawn out journey to getting the sale completed, Laura did not miss a beat. She responded very quickly to any queries and always was good humoured and measured in her advice. This was particularly important when an offer came in that was pretty good but less than what I’d hoped for. She gave her advice in a direct and totally credible way. And it turned out to be a good call.

LAURA WATSON ESTATE AGENTS – JOHN NICHOLAS-BRIGGS

Laura Watson was my agent for the second time in little over a year. I have been an executor of 2 estates and have had a house to sell on each occasion. Laura did a splendid job on the first occasion and as good if not better the second time around. She and her team were always responsive and available for viewings whenever the need arose. As the properties were empty each viewing had to be accompanied. They never missed an appointment, even those made at short notice. The service I received was at least as good as, if not better than, any traditional estate agent might offer but at a fraction of the cost. I can unequivocally recommend Laura and her team.

LAURA WATSON – NICHOLAS PRITCHARD

I have had a really good experience with Laura Watson. She has always answered the phone unless she on a viewing. She always called me back. It hasn’t been the easiest sale for her but she has dealt with it in such a professional manner. Also Jan was very helpful also under difficult circumstances. I would like to thank them both very much for their support to me!

HOUSE SALE – SALLY HARRISON-BAKER

We were sceptical of using an online agent as I have only ever used traditional Estate Agents. We had four valuations, which were all around the same price. Estate Agents have a certain swagger but we cannot rate our agent Laura Watson highly enough, she was professional, friendly and went way beyond our expectations. She seems to work 24 hours a day, even replying to a question at 10pm on a Sunday night! Everything runs very smoothly, professional photographer, EPC and floorpans. We saved thousands and we will never go back to the high street. Thank you Laura.

BEST SERVICE EVER..THANK YOU LAURA WATSON. – CHRIS WILCOCKS

Outstanding support and advice from Alistair Harper and his colleagues that has led, fingers crossed, to a very satisfactory sale. WhatsApp group has worked well for communication and, thus far, I have been impressed with the ease of managing the post-sales.

OUTSTANDING SUPPORT, THANK YOU – JAMES ALLEN

Laura Watson has always been excellent. I would thoroughly recommend her. She always replies to messages and has always been really helpful.

LAURA WATSON HAS ALWAYS BEEN EXCELLENT – PAULINE SISEMAN

Following a bad experience with a traditional high street estate agent, we decided to instruct Alistair to sell our house. Despite a challenging housing market, Alistair has been absolutely brilliant throughout the entire process. He’s regularly kept us updated and is always available to support, no matter what time of the day. It’s this flexibility and convenience that sets him apart from other estate agents, combined with an easy-to-use portal which notifies you when you have a viewing, feedback or an offer. In what can be quite a stressful experience, Alistair has always made things easy to understand, with no estate agent jargon or waffle – just plain, honest advice from start to finish. It’s clear he really cares about doing the right for his customers and he has great knowledge of the local property market. I’d highly recommend Alistair and would definitely use him in the future.

ALISTAIR HARPER – FANTASTIC PROPERTY EXPERT IN BROMLEY! – JEN LOCK

Laura Watson and Alistair Harper provided excellent service and support for us, and were always available when we needed to reach them with a question. Thanks also to Andrea and Issy for showing the house and providing quick and regular feedback. Top service all round from the team.

GREAT AGENTS, GREAT SERVICE. – BRIDGET CLARK

We have found Laura Watson to be brilliant. We had listed our house with an alternative agency initially and things were moving very slowly, but Laura came in and saved the day. From initial consultation, through to final completion, we found Laura to be professional and knowledgeable, but friendly and helpful with it. She has always gone the extra mile to ensure our sale ran through as smoothly as possible. We would recommend Laura Watson specifically, whole heartedly.

LAURA WATSON AT PURPLE BRICKS IS BRILLIANT! – TIM MCKENNA

FANTASTIC AND EFFICIENT SERVICE FROM… – ANTHONY GODFREY

Massive thanks to Alistair Harper who has been amazing and so helpful for all our maintenance questions. Highly recommended.

MASSIVE THANKS TO ALISTAIR HARPER – KYRIA BYFIELD

In less that 2 weeks of meeting the property expert for our area, Alistair Harper, my flat is sold. It was only on the market for one day and sold to the first buyer for 17k more than we were expecting. There were another 9 viewers lined up within 24hrs. Really happy with service. Sorted solicitors and put me in touch with a lovely mortgage advisor who contacted me within hours the same day as Alistair visited me. Photographer was lovely too. Alistair was helpful and approachable and very, very available for any questions at any time. Thank you.

FLAT SOLD IN 24HRS OF GOING ON MARKET – ANGELA COURSE

Laura Watson was a great help and very professional. She was always on hand to answer any questions we had. She went the extra mile to get the sale of our house pushed on as quickly and smoothly as possible. 5-star service.

LAURA WATSON WAS A GREAT HELP AND VERY… – JAMES

Very professional performance. The agent assigned to helping me sell my property was Alistair Harper who kept me informed and up to date with all the information I needed and was always on hand to answer any concerns or questions I had about the sale. Great Job.

VERY PROFESSIONAL PERFORMANCE. – STEPHEN SMITH

Purplebricks made buying a property easy and efficient. Our local agent, Laura Watson, was fantastic. She responded really quickly to any queries and was always on hand for a phone call to talk things through. Laura’s customer service is fantastic and she is a credit to the team!

PURPLEBRICKS MADE BUYING A PROPERTY… – EMILY

My wife and I would like to thank our estate agent, and specifically our “property experts” Laura Watson (initially), and for the bulk of the time, Alistair Harper. Alistair handled our sale with efficiency professionalism and good humour. Although the sale took a number of months we were never made to feel forgotten, as he kept in regular touch. And ultimately, Alistair’s advice on pricing proved pivotal. Obviously, we also made a very significant saving compared to the commission of a High Street Estate Agent. All in all, a flawless service, which I would recommend to anybody. Thanks to Alistair Harper in particular.

THANK YOU ALISTAIR – COLIN PETIT

Unfortunately, our house purchase fell through due to problems at the survey stage. Laura Watson was the agent and was excellent to deal with. She was always available for anything we needed and gave us access to the house at short notice for surveys/2nd surveys. Thanks for all you did for us Laura! Mel & Kevin.

UNFORTUNATELY, OUR HOUSE PURCHASE FELL… – MELANIE

Alistair Harper was extremely helpful & supportive in relation to the sale of my house. I had been unwell & having secured a transfer at work to Devon agreed to manage the sale of my house. He talked me through how to use Web site, managed viewings & negotiated on my behalf with potential buyers. He secured a quick sale on my house for the best price & constantly stayed in touch with me. I would highly recommend him.

ALISTAIR HARPER WAS EXTREMELY HELPFUL &… – LOUISA WADE

Can honestly say do not have a bad word to say. Our experience has been absolutely first class and totally down to our fabulous agent Laura Watson. From first viewing our desired property (when our property wasn’t even on the market!) to listing and selling ours took an incredible and I am quite sure unbeatable 2 weeks!!! Laura is a dedicated and knowledgeable professional. The support and service she has and continues to provide is second to none. Thank you Laura!

CAN HONESTLY SAY DO NOT HAVE A BAD WORD… – KAREN

Alistair Harper has been absolutely amazing, very knowledgeable and honest about the current market. Responsive day and night 7 days a week and so supportive throughout. He managed to get us the full asking price! We went to him after 2 failed experiences with agents on the high street, Alistair was a breath of fresh air! If we had to score him out of 10 he would get an 11.

ALISTAIR HARPER – SARAH HURN

We have just sold our flat through Purplebricks and should be moving into our new home soon. Our agent Laura Watson has been absolutely amazing! At first it all looked a bit daunting doing this ourselves but Laura was always there to help and give advice when needed. We can’t thank her enough for everything she has done for us.

GREAT EXPERIENCE AND AMAZING AGENT…!! – GERHARD BAILEY

Ali Harper helped to manage expectations as well as pursue a fair pricing of our property, one which I’m very happy with. He represented our position clearly to the buyers as well as advising on what he felt were the realistic prospects in the current slightly confused and uncertain market. I was selling amid the acrimony of a marital separation and there were certain added challenges to the negotiations which Ali helped me through. I would certainly rate him as a sales option for anybody wishing to sell their home.

HE GETS MY VOTE – GRAEME MARTIN

Laura Watson was a fantastic consultant, she helped guide us from start to finish. It was a very stress-free transaction and we had constant updates and communication from Laura. We would highly recommend using purple bricks and if you can use Laura I would definitely recommend! Post-sale support was also a great help too.

LAURA WATSON WAS A FANTASTIC… – GRACIE LOU-FREEBUSH

A friend made a recommendation after selling and now I also recommend the same after selling. Alistair Harper was my local expert, he really looked after me and had my back every step of the way. Alistair work harder than any estate agent I’ve ever met, we sometime have calls late in the evening or at the weekend to discuss how the viewings went or when offers came in. He always gave very good and honest advice which I really appreciate. After three buyers the house is now sold! Thanks Alistair for all your help, as an individual you get 5 stars from me 👍
