I have never had such an easy and straight forward sale and I put this down entirely to the calm professionalism that the Balfours Shrewsbury team is known for.

Their customer service was amazing throughout the whole process and they went out of the way to inspire confidence and to re-assure at all times.

We purchased a home being sold by Balfours and our agents Abbie and Charlie were absolutely amazing. So professional and friendly. We had all our requests responded too immediately and they were always available to help us.
