I recommend Gary and the team at Avards unreservedly. From the first contact, valuation, marketing and viewings through to exchange/ completion Gary worked tirelessly. He communicated at every step of the way and advised me wisely through various offers and options. I felt confident leaving Gary in charge of negotiating the sale and trusted his experience and expert knowledge of the market and area. Gary was positive and confident which made me feel reassured - this reduced the inevitable stress that is experienced when buying and selling property. Gavin and Jack were professional and kept me fully updated if Gary was out of the office. Gary and the team went above and beyond to facilitate this sale. Thank you!... Read more

With all the landlords/estate agents i've had in the past in London, Brighton, and Hanoi - I can not make it clear enough how fantastic these guys are. I've personally been dealing with Gary Cloherty, who's lovely and sorts everything immediately. They're flexible, kind, and prompt. They were very professional when dealing with a complicated neighbourly conflict.They restored my faith in estate agents and landlords. 1000% recommend. Don't risk it with anyone else, come to these guys!... Read more

Gary and Gavin were nothing but wonderful throughout the entirety of the house buying process. Unlike most estate agents I worked with prior to this, Avard seem to prioritise both the buyer's and seller's needs so that everyone felt happy with all outcomes. They also went the extra mile at every turn, including every time I asked for access to the flat prior to completion (for measuring spaces etc.) and for helping me organise quotes for repairs. They are incredibly responsive, personable and respectful, and they made the whole experience feel so much less stressful than it could have been. I couldn't be happier - thank you!!... Read more

5 stars and more!!! Firstly I would like to say a massive thank you to Gary and the team for all your hard work and support throughout the process of buying our first home! They made a stressful time less stressful, we had problems with the seller's solicitors, they were just so bad at getting anything done, but Gary and the team went above and beyond to help us, even driving documents to lease holders to get signatures! They were always just a phone call away if we ever wanted to ask any questions and they kept us informed with calls throughout! I can't recommend these guys enough!! If we ever sell our property I know which estate agent we will use... Thank's again Avard!... Read more

In buying our first home together, Avards have been incredible since day one. Gary has been professional and approachable throughout the entire process. There were certain delays with the sellers solicitors, and without Gary's help it would've delayed our move by months I'm sure. He personally went above and beyond in his duties to assist in making the sale run as smoothly as possible. For example, driving to the sharing free holders multiple addresses to obtain signatures on lease extensions, or contacting both solicitors when we couldn't and keeping us in the loop. On veiwing the property prior to exchanging contracts to get quotes for the work that needed doing, Avards were always understanding and there to allow us access to the property. When it comes to selling our flat, we will 100% choose Gary, Patrick and the team at Avards.... Read more

I highly recommend Avards and can't praise them enough. Following a disappointing service from 2 of the larger agencies, I switched to Avard following a recommendation. Their fee was very competitive and offered high end marketing support, leading to numerous viewings booked within hours of going on the market. From start to finish Gavin and Gary provided an extremely efficient and professional service. Their communication was great throughout and made what could have been a challenging sale, a walk in the park. Great work Team Avard! ... Read more
