Urban Base valued, listed and sold my property in 72 hours and the service was amazing from start to finish. Charlotte, who dealt with the sale, was always on hand to answer the phone and offer advice and was fantastic to deal with.

Absolutely flawless experience from start to finish. Kurt, who led the transition from our old house to new, was professional, patient and highly commendable throughout the entire process.

We had a very good experience with Urban Base. Our house sold at asking price within 72 hours of going on the market, and ongoing engagement the the agents was strong, timely and effective, both with this sale and our subsequent purchase.
