Janine was patient, attentive and always on the case throughout a longer than expected house sale.
Our sales negotiator Debra was great, always on hand, professional and responsive to any questions we had or if we needed to arrange a visit to the property.
I have been dealing with ELR and Debra Draper for the purchase of our home. The service has been excellent. She has answered all of our questions and been ready to support us every step of the way. Highly recommend Debra and ELR.
Thank you
All the staff have made the moving in process a dream, the property is in fantastic nick reasonably priced aswell. I cannot wait to get moved In. Thank you to you all!
The team where fantastic from start to finish, especially Janine Pallas. Nothing was too much trouble, they were attentive throughout the process. I am really glad sold my property through ELR. Well done guys!!
I have been house hunting for the past six months + and have NEVER come across such an incredible estate agency and staff members as ELR. From the phone call with their agent, the Amazing Alex, to the communications sent to me via e-mail and the actual viewing itself, the entire process merits a gazillion stars. The staff are incredible, their listings fantastic and meeting your specific requirements outstanding. After my viewing, I also received an unexpected call from Kevin asking me how it all went. We had a lovely chat and he was just as warm and friendly as Alex regarding my specific requirements and personal take on the viewing just completed. ELR is absolutely a fantastic agency and one whom now make me hesitant to work with any other agency!
Whilst looking for a property to rent, my wife and I were shown around 3 over the course of 2 days by ELR agent Alice Firth.
An absolutely wonderful employee - knowledgeable and understanding of our needs, with an ability to make a potentially stressful search into a wonderful experience. We give Alice and ELR five stars!
ELR have been fantastic for our house sale. I would highly recommend them to anyone. Very friendly, efficient and honest with communication. Thank you to Janine and the team.
Fantastic experience from start to finish. ELR Hathersage have helped us buy our new home. Caroline and team have been so supportive throughout the process from our initial viewing, through to exchange and completion. They were always on hand to answer any queries and kept in regular contact to keep us updated throughout the process.
Great service provided by ELR from start to finish. Very professional and thorough with a attention to detail. They conducted all the viewings. A special mention should go to my point if contact Debra, who always went out of her way to assist in the sale. A fantastic experience, not at all stressful. I would highly recommend ELR.
Incredibly professional all throughout. Effective communication, support and a personable experience.
We’ve been viewing houses for more than 6 months now and have never had such a great experience as we did with Nell! Most agents seem to have very little information about the properties, and the most common answer is “I don’t know”, which is just a total waste of time.
Nell, on the other hand, was extremely knowledgeable and answered every single question we had. She also gave us lots of useful information about solicitors and the property market in general, which we really appreciated.
I honestly wish all estate agents were as helpful, knowledgeable and insightful as Nell!
ELR and in particular Andrew Ling have been amazing. So efficient and accommodating to all of our requests. Excellent service.
Good firm that helped my house purchase process go smoothly. Had a great experience with Janine, who was always very quick to respond to enquiries and any questions I had during the home buying process. Would recommend!

The whole experience from start to finish was stress free. Communication was really good and someone always answered my calls and emails straightaway. As the process advanced, Mark was just amazing. No question too much and he responded really quickly to all my queries. Alex was also great and helped me to be in the property in time for the BT engineer when I needed to.
All in all, amazing company to deal with - with a special shout out to Mark for his patience and helpfulness.

This is the first time using ELR for finding our tenant. They have been professional and attentive from start to finish. I believe their process to be thorough and fair. The inventory was very detailed and well worth the cost involved.
I would like to make a special mention in relation to Richard Attwood, Mark Jackson and Alice Firth. Their patience and promptness in communication have been first class!

ELR were acting as agents for the sellers of the house we eventually purchased.
We dealt with Debra Draper who initially showed us round and then dealt with a series of sometimes challenging calls as we felt the sellers were acting unhelpfully.
Debra was friendly, understanding and thoroughly professional at all times, it was a pleasure dealing with Debra.

I dealt with Mark during my recent letting of a property in Castleton and have to say from start to finish he was very helpful, approachable and always available, courteous and friendly. I really couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you for making a stressful experience that much easier. Would highly recommend.

Our experience with ELR, Janine in particular, has been excellent from start to finish. Good communication throughout the entire process, helpful and friendly too.

Our situation, coming from another country and having no rental or credit history in the UK, presented a number of challenges for the letting agent / credit team.
They had to manage the credit agency and deal with a very frustated potential tenant. And yet, they — and specifically Kevin Rimmington and Mark Jackson — never lost their composure or pleasant approach. Step by step they worked through it all until, now, the situation is nearly finalized. Well done.
