A fantastic service from Mark and his team. Mark acted for us on both our sale and purchase. Agreeing a sale is one thing, however progressing the sale to completion certainly proved to be testing. Mark's ability to manage the situation was incredibly positive, providing a very satisfactory conclusion. Many thanks mark... Read more

whitton and laing,.what a nightmare!!! After showing viewers around they forgot to shut and lock front door a few times of the empty house!! House blind was broken and left on the floor with plaster off the wall,allowed mud to be trodden in brand new carpets, allowed a surveyor to trespass and jump back garden fence breaking the panal when all they had to do is phone me to ask for key to garden gate,and has now been confirmed with surveyor!! Allowed surveyor to spray path with spray paint for drain survey which won't scrub off!!!!Told me they had spoken to solicitors for advice when they didn't!!! Complete liars and no apology !!! The list goes on!!! Didn't inform me of exchange of contracts either! They even let the buyer have a garage key before the day of completion to my disgust.confronted them with issues and still no apology.couldnt have cared less!!!repcomplete LIAR'S !!! Complete let down! My advice is to DEFINITELY use another agent.!!!!... Read more

I was so impressed with the team at Whitton & Laing. They were incredibly helpful with all my questions and concerns as a first time buyer. Even as a full time Project Manager I struggled to understand the steps of purchasing a property and they liased with me throughout the process and went above and beyond the call of duty of an estate agent. Thank you Mark and Kirra at Whitton & Laing... Read more

We bought our current house with Whitton&Laing in Exmouth. Everyone in the office was extremely helpful, patient and understanding. The communication throughout the whole process was outstanding. They always had time for us, attended to our needs and answered all our questions in an honest and professional manner. We could not be happier with the service that provided and all their support and expertise in what could have been a very stressful time otherwise. Thank you all!... Read more

Symon from Whitton & Laing was on the ball regarding our new property. He kept all parties up to speed with what was going on and this made the whole process come together. This also allowed everyone to agree on a completion date. Thanks again and we will come to you when we are looking to upgrade in a few years.... Read more

I have absolutely no reservations in recommending the services of Whitton and Laing, who tirelessly supported us in our recent sale and purchase, in moving home. I had every confidence in their skills and their communication was invaluable. If I had to do it all again, I would not hesitate to choose them! (I'm not going to do it ever again!!)... Read more

Mark Soper (at W&L Exmouth) did a great job making all the practical arrangements for our visits to the property (whilst keeping at a distance - and masking up etc). He was clear about his communications with the seller and us, including getting the answers to practical questions from rthe seller, what was included in the price including the kitchen appliances, glasshouse and site access arrangements for the Removals Day.
Subsequently, he was very accessible and able to arrange visits very efficiently and quickly for the building surveyor, structural surveyor, asbestos surveyor, electrician and heating engineer into the house (and, later, a builder, gardening contractor and tree surgeon).... Read more
