Alice and her team have been excellent

Alice and her team have been wonderfully supportive, friendly and pro active in leading us through the Lettting process. Always available, excellent communication and made us feel like very valued customers. Alice has been very thorough with all the finer details and keeping us updated at all times. We feel very comfortable knowing that Alice and her team is managing our property.

We honestly couldn’t be happier with the service we’ve received so far! From the very first phone call to book a viewing, right through to having our offer accepted and seeing the property marked Sold STC, the team has been absolutely fantastic.

Sam has been so helpful from day one, always responsive, professional and happy to answer any questions we had. Grace is so friendly and knowledgeable and was absolutely brilliant with our children, which really meant a lot to us. She never made us feel rushed or like we were asking too many questions. Dan has also been fantastic, really friendly, informative and always on the ball, keeping everything moving and making sure we knew what was happening.

Buying a house can be such a stressful and overwhelming process, especially with two toddlers thrown into the mix, but they’ve made it feel so much easier and have always been there whenever we’ve needed them.

We genuinely can’t fault them in any way and we are so grateful for everything they’ve done so far. We’re so pleased to be continuing this journey with them and can’t wait to (hopefully!) get the keys to our new home.

Thank you all so much for everything you’ve done so far – you’ve all been amazing! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Gatekeeper to anyone.

The viewing was excellent

The viewing was excellent, nice and helpful staff member Taylor has taken me around; on time and with lots of local knowledge.

Booking the viewing was a bit cumbersome as could not be done via Rightmove and was unavailable many times at the Gatekeeper's online portal itself.
