Matt, Steven and all the team were incredibly helpful, diligent, communicative and straightforward in supporting our purchase. Everything was very smooth thanks to their efforts. We would certainly use their services again if buying or selling around Bath.

From the moment I met Steve, I knew that his professional judgement and calm manner were exactly what I needed to support me through the process of selling my house. He was always readily available, patient and helpful and proved to be an invaluable link between myself and the buyers. His input undoubtedly made the whole process a lot smoother. Any contact I had with the Fine & Country office was similarly impressive. I would whole heartedly recommend them.

A brilliant, efficient and personalised service from all at Fine & Country Bath. From the first valuation visit to the day of completion, they were incredibly supportive, clear and quick to offer options, guidance and ways forward. Quick and problem solving approach from people who understand house moving and how stressful it can be! Would definitely recommend.

What a great experience to have out sale handled by Fine and Country. Our Agent Matthew kept us informed throughout the whole selling process and after each viewing.
The fact that an agent accompanied each potential purchaser on a visit meant that we didn’t actually meet anyone because he dealt with all questions as they arose .
This was evidence of an agent fully acquainting himself with the details of the property he was selling.
Well done and thank you Fine and Country I would have no hesitation in recommending your agency .

Fine & Country Bath provided a very professional approach, with a realistic valuation of the property, varied and effective marketing options, accompanied by excellent access to suitable buyers (incl. buyers agents), and prompt feedback after viewings and during the sales process.
Highly recommended.

These guys really know what they do. They are professional, friendly, helpful and sincere. They created a very good atmosphere that I, as a costumer, felt fully supported. They do not only sell products, fix phones, they can also solve other IT related problems. I am so pleased with the services they provided. Highly recommended to everyone.

We would like to say a big thank you to all the staff at Fine and Country Bath who recently dealt with the sale of our house. They are a highly professional business and they presented our house beautifully and really maximised its appeal to the market. Steven Shepherd is an excellent agent and I can safely say that without his skills the transaction may not have happened.
Thank you all so much.

The whole team at Fine and & Country were responsive, professional and friendly. All our queries were dealt with promptly and we felt supported the whole way though the sale. We bought a house marketed by F&C Bath and we were impressed then. It was then an easy decision to go with them for our own sale. Thanks again to Matt, Steven and the team.

The staff at Homes of Bath are all extremely friendly, helpful and professional. They have an excellent knowledge of the market, and moved quickly under difficult conditions.
Having valued the house at nearly £100,000 more than another "high-end" agent, they proceeded to find a buyer within 6 days of going to market with the house sale completing in a seamless fashion.
Having sold several houses I can honestly say that this was the easiest and most professionally handled sale I have experienced.

We would highly recommend Homes of Bath Fine & Country. We had a brilliant experience both selling and buying through them. Steve and the team were all exceptionally helpful and refreshingly “non estate agent like”! He seemed to genuinely like our house and immediately saw the potential. We agreed a price for both selling our old house and buying the new one within 24 hours of the first viewing of the old house. Steve was enthusiastic, encouraging and available throughout. Moving house is inevitably a stressful business but he managed to help us navigate any rough waters and give us good advice when we needed it.
We would definitely use them again!

I cannot recommend Homes of Bath highly enough! During these difficult circumstances the team kept positive and focussed on the end goal of selling our home. They did a superb job and sold the house to the first people who viewed it! The team were extremely efficient in progressing the sale and we will definitely be using them again. Thank you for your wonderful work Homes of Bath.

Having dealt with several estate agents in the past, I was really pleased to come across Steve and his team. Communication was excellent from start to finish during the purchase of our property. He gave us honest advice and was very responsive in answering any queries we had. I am hoping to purchase more properties in the future and Homes of Bath will be my first point of call for any advise. They are genuine, honest, knowledgable and very professional. Thank you !

Fine & Country estate agents were amazing. We tried a couple of estate agents before we switched to Fine & Country. They have a great team who really seem to know the local market and have an active list of interested buyers. They really offered some great advice along the way and were always available to answer any questions. I would definitely use them again and would happily recommend them to other sellers.

Despite the inevitable stress involved in buying and selling houses (in our case, we were selling), we really enjoyed working with the staff at Homes of Bath Fine & Country. As it's an intimate office-based team, we got to meet and work with each staff member in time. We weathered nail-biting tension and had some belly laughs too throughout the process.
We were initially impressed by their quiet confidence in the ballpark guide price they'd placed on our unique miniature Georgian cottage. Having ended up feeling we needed to get six market appraisals, rather than the customary three - as the first three diverged by a margin of more than £50,000! - we came to understand that it's much harder to determine the worth of an unusual property than somewhere where similar homes can clearly be compared. The additional agents we asked along, having been confused by the differing opinions of the first three, suggested an asking price £50,000 higher again!
Of these, we chose Homes of Bath Fine & Country because of their young, can-do attitude, their friendly service and beautifully presented brochures. These are distinctive not only because of the tasteful, excellent professional photographs which somehow bring out the soul of the home, but also because of the editorials which put across the more personal perspective of the current home owner - a 'local' in the area - which conveys a sense of what it's like to live there. This strikes us as a smart approach, in line with developments in a culture which increasingly prioritizes personalized experience over the impersonal and mass produced. In an era in which you can look at and compare hundreds of places in one session on the internet, a post needs to stand out for the best reasons, not because it's written in capitals punctuated with a host of stars and exclamation marks. This company's listings have a Homes and Gardens feel. For the type of property we were marketing, that was the perfect look.
In the end we achieved a price midway between all six agents' suggestions; something we definitely would not have achieved if we'd gone with the first three who quoted, as this was the starting point of the highest.
The service we experienced at Homes of Bath Fine and Country was tireless, good humoured, detailed, painstaking, uncomplaining when the inevitable challenges threatened to derail the process, and excellent value for money. We would definitely use this company again and recommend them highly to others.
