Jackson-Stops North Devon

We highly recommend the team at Jackson Stops who made the purchase of our new home in N Devon as smooth and stress-free as possible. James and Ria were an absolutely breath of fresh air to deal with after many experiences with much less trustworthy/professional estate agents in Bristol. Proof that there are extremely helpful, efficient and honest estate agents out there. We are so grateful to James and Ria at Jackson-Stops Barnstaple!

We interviewed a number of N Devon agents to sell my mother's old farmhouse and appointed Jackson-Stops because James Carroll seemed the best able to identify and market its unique characteristics. Not only did he achieve a price considerably above the expected range but he was also very effective and professional in dealing with all queries expeditiously. He generally made himself available whenever I called and, if not, I heard back from him very soon afterwards. I have no hesitation in recommending Jackson-Stops N Devon to anyone considering selling their property.

Jackson-Stops, in particular Katie and James have been an absolute pleasure to work with throughout our house purchase. They are extremely easy to communicate with, they answered our many frequent requests and questions quickly and efficiently. We are new to North Devon so their knowledge of the local area has been invaluable. They have made the whole process from start to finish a thoroughly good experience and we cannot thank them enough. We would thoroughly recommend them to future house buyers and sellers and if we ever move again we will definitely be instructing them to act on our behalf.

I recently purchased a property through Jackson-Stops, both Ria and James were incredibly professional, helpful, diligent and relaxed throughout the whole process. I aimed to get the purchase done quickly and Ria was so helpful working with both parties solicitors the vendor and myself. Communication was clear and frequent so I knew what was happening. I absolutely recommend them.Ria and James also have a lovely office dog and its well worth going to meet them to fuss over their dog.

Professional, Straightforward & very ResponsiveAs buyers, we were impressed that Jackson-Stops Barnstaple were, unfailingly, all of the above. They struck a great and hard to strike balance of working for us as buyers and their original client, the vendors. We made it clear that we had a looming stamp duty deadline and they clearly worked hard to help us meet it. Particularly of note is how very responsive they are, which really help to speed the process.A very pleasant transaction and thanks gain for helping us meet that deadline.Impressed by the service we enjoyed and would be pleased to deal with the Jackson-Stops Barnstaple team again.

As seasoned house movers we have experienced estate agents across the range. Ria and James from Jackson-Stops North Devon are without a shadow of a doubt the best there are. We have never worked with such a professional, efficient and caring team. Their recommended photographer was exceptional, and they worked with us to produce a really beautiful brochure, presenting our home at its absolute best, resulting in 125 enquiries, and several offers, which they helped us to decide upon, resulting in progression to a successful sale, despite a very long wait for our buyers. When things got a bit tricky in the lead up to exchange, Ria was right there easing things along with the legal teams and the other estate agents in the chain, whilst communicating fully with us and our buyers. Jackson-Stops North Devon are the best in the business.

We first met James when he showed us around the house we eventually bought. We immediately felt at ease and liked his professionalism and knowledge. We decided to put our house sale in his and Ria's safe hands and never regretted it.They were both friendly, experienced, efficient and always on hand throughout the sale and purchase processes. James and Ria definitely made the whole process much less stressful. We have no hesitation in recommending them and Jackson Stops.

We would like to thank all of the Jackson-Stops team for getting the sale of our property over the line. At times it seemed like it was unlikely to happen, probably one of the longest to exchange we have ever had when selling a property.Personal thanks to Katie who kept us all positive and informed along the way. Katie certainly played her part in getting the sale of our property to exchange. We have even ended up with 6.5 weeks between exchange and completion which has taken the pressure off organising everything. We cannot recommend them enough, from the start James was straight talking and not pushy and the whole team helped us find the perfect buyer.

I would like to share briefly my recent experience of selling my house in north Devon. Originally it was my intention to use another well-known agent based in Barnstaple, but the service I received from them was below the standard I expected. I chose Jackson -Stops through recommendation and I can now fully concur with that recommendation. The service I received was far superior and at a more competitive rate than the other agent. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Jackson Stops.

Tireless Help & Support from the Barnstaple Branch.We cannot speak too highly of the help, support and encouragement we received from James Carroll and his wife Ria at Jackson-Stops, Barnstaple. They fully understood the significance to us of the move we were making, and never made light of it. And they gave us assistance and advice with our purchase (which was not through Jackson-Stops) as well as our sale.They were so completely professional in their work for us, but also friendly and supportive, pushing and battling for us, or asking a pointed question, or making a diplomatic phone call, at just the right moments. And when the going got tough, there was no-one else I would have wanted watching our back.We have made a life-changing move, very much for the better, and James and Ria played a very significant role in making that happen.Thank you.
