We made the offer on the Monday and deal done but Wednesday

The service and care from Anita and the sales progression team was by far better than the experience we had with our own selling estate agents

We have already recommended you to several of our friends

Thanks again for everything- we love our new home

Liv was absolutely fantastic throughout our move. She was warm, supportive, and really took the time to understand what we needed as a family. Her communication was great, and she made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and manageable. I’m so grateful for her help in securing our home. I couldn’t recommend her more highly!

Rented a flat using absolute as the main form of contact, they let me move into a dirty flat that had mould and wasn’t in the best of conditions with my baby, however for the price I went on for my 1year tenancy agreement then moved out. The deposit request proved even harder not only did the wait until the last week they want over 500 pound for cleaning and lights when it was probably cleaner then the condition I moved into, ridiculous, learnt to be more observant on show around.

Absolute were excellent in all respects.

Absolute was excellent throughout the process. They presented the property very professionally with super photography and write up. They were tenacious in getting qualified buyers through the door and were always on top of things, keeping us informed every step of the way.

Fantastic staff at Absolute in Paignton from start to finish.

Quick reply to inquiries about viewings and availability to view in Paignton. Great communication. We had a lovely member of staff from start to finish Anita Batson, she was a star ⭐. Took us around to view what properties we wanted & plus Anita offered others to view if we wanted to take a look we wanted to, which once she popped back to office to inform them & pick up keys and information. As we was living in the West Midlands , Anita kept us up to-date & like wise from us. Gary also helped us with inquiries when Anita had her day off. Over all what a fantastic team they have in Paignton’s Absolute office would highly recommend.
Once we moved down to Paignton & into our new home with amazing views of the beach & can see Torquay , once we got our keys & went into our new home there was a card & a box of goodies & offers on some retailers from Absolute estate agent , what a sweet surprise & big Thank You from us both.
Anita keep being you as you are an excellent estate agent.

Absolute Letting Agent Charlie

I have used Absolute Lettings for my rental properties for some years.
However on this occasion Charlie looked after my property and found the right tenants. Every email enquiry I sent was answered promptly and efficiently. Charlie was so easy to work with and understood my requirements. Charlie is a great asset to Absolute Lettings and stands out with her great customer service, friendly manner and going above and beyond. Thank you Charlie for all your help it was a pleasure working with you.

Brilliant service all round

Communication from Anita from the outset was brilliant with her working hard to facilitate a viewing while we were visiting the area from London. All details and communications have been accurate and timely and the progression work was also helpful especially when we had some delays due to slow buyer on our sale property

I had a viewing on a lovely flat hosted by Kate Harris from then Paignton department. The viewing was very professional, so much so that I applied and moved into the property.
I have a very good customer service with a very quick and fluid transaction.
Upon collecting the keys I was given a welcome pack with a lovely card and a box full of goodies!
Great company to go through, definitely recommend and especially Kate.
Absolute Lettings, Absolute dream!

I cannot recommend Absolute highly…

I cannot recommend Absolute highly enough. Gary and his team at the Paignton office gave excellent service and attention to selling my property. Having had my house on the market with another estate agent for the first six months of the year with very few viewings, I switched to Absolute and my property got sold in the first week. Their marketing is amazing with beautiful photography done along with a 3D video tour. Viewings and offers were all done through an App which makes life a lot easier to keep track of activity and feedback from viewings was given immediately - no having to wait several days! All the team are friendly, knowledgeable, understanding of my situation and went above and beyond to give an all round fantastic service from start to finish. Not only were the sales team great, doing thorough research on the market to best advise how to price and market my property, but the sales progress team were also excellent in pushing my sale through and updating me every week on progress. 10/10 - would use Absolute again in a heart beat and recommend to any and all my friends/family in the Torbay area. Thank you for such a brilliant service.

The buyer app is gold dust when it comes to communication - nothing gets missed and you're kept up to date at all times!

Wishing you all the best in your new chapter, and thank you again for choosing Absolute! Please do recommend us to your friends and family ☺️
