From the initial visit by Adam Day, right through to the end we were very glad we sold our home through Hatched. The service they offer is excellent, and we felt very fair. We found potential buyers were very happy with the whole process. The appointments for viewings are very professionally sorted and the arrangement for feedback is very good too. We found potential buyers were very happy to be shown round by ourselves - after all we know the house best! When we did receive a low offer Hatched were very quick to advise we shouldn't take it and sure enough, within a short space of time, we had a much better offer and the whole completion process has been very straightforward. We would definitely use Hatched again if we moved in the future.

Kindly note that legally, letting agents need to publish information about their tenancy fees, government-approved redress schemes and client money protection schemes on their website and on third party websites (on which agents are listed). For properties to lease/rent in England, agents need to keep this information up to date and precise on allAgents or specify within the property description.
