"We rang Butters John Bee as we wanted to sell our land which has development potential. Paul Beardmore went out of his way to meet us at a  time which we were all available and explained all the options open to us. It was a lot more complicated than we had originally thought due to a historic title issues and Paul helped us find a suitable solicitor to deal with this for us. Paul dealt with all the viewings, obtained a list of offers and liaised with our solicitor until the sale completed and we received the money. We were very happy with the outcome. Many thanks Margaret & family."

“We spoke to BJB about selling our former care home which is located close to the hospital. We knew that there was potential for a conversion to residential apartments and the like, and so we needed an agent that understood this market. I am so pleased that we used BJB as they dealt with the sale process and knew all the pitfalls! After a few hiccups we sold the property post Auction for a price which we were happy with. We would use BJB again, Many thanks.”
