Farrar and Forbes are acting on my behalf as letting agents. I have mainly been dealing with Greg Forbes and he has been exceptional. I have been using letting agents for a number of years and have never experienced such an efficient and professional service. I would 100% recommend them.

We had Reece out recently to value our home and he was a pleasure to deal with, demonstrating his knowledge of the local area and similar properties while also being fair with his assessment and not pressuring us into choosing Farrar & Forbes.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Reece when looking for a property and could not be more pleased with the experience. From start to finish Reece was professional, friendly and attentive to my needs. I would highly recommend using Farrar & Forbes whether you’re looking to buy or rent a property.
