The team were awesome throughout all aspects of the house purchase (Wendy, Nikki & Tom) especially as we needed a quick completion (under a month from viewing to moving in). Every question was answered and they were always super responsive and never left us hanging. I would thoroughly recommend from the purchase side and therefore from the selling side, as assuming the vendors of the property we purchased were thankful for a quick turnaround too. Thank you team H&O.

Jack at Holland and Odam recently helped me sell my house, and I couldn’t be happier with the service! From start to finish, he was professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in achieving the best outcome. Jack kept me updated every step of the way, answered all my questions patiently, and his expertise in the local market ensured we achieved a fantastic price. The whole team at Holland and Odam were efficient and friendly, making what can be a stressful process feel smooth and straightforward. Outstanding service!
