I can not thank Susan enough! She was kind, helpful and so informative as i went into the process completely unaware of what it entailed. Susan gave me confidence to ask questions no matter how silly and was always responsive extremely quickly if i needed advice/ had any queries. Both the girls who work alongside Susan were also really approachable and made the whole exciting experience of buying my first home feel less daunting and scary! I would recommend Susan and her team to ANYONE who would listen :)!
