We truly can’t put into words how grateful we are to Molly and Andy at Location Location. From the very beginning, they treated us with such kindness, patience, and genuine care. What could have been an incredibly stressful time felt manageable because we knew we had them by our side. They were always there to answer our questions (no matter how small), reassure us when we felt overwhelmed, and check in just to make sure we were okay. Even after everything was finalised, they didn’t just move on, they continued to support us and help with any issues that came up. It never felt like we were “just another client”we felt genuinely looked after and valued. Molly and Andy went above and beyond for us, and we honestly couldn’t have asked for better people to guide us through such an important chapter in our lives. Thank you both so much, we will always be grateful.

Location Location have been great. Molly and Andrew have always been super helpful with anything I’ve asked and made the whole process as a first time buyer very smooth. Would recommend for anyone who is buying or selling.

We found Location Location and their team very professional and extremely friendly and helpful. We have to mention Molly! Thank-you so much! Watching the exceptional video of the property was in fact what sold it to us. Well done Andrew! Thumbs up all around 👍

One week in our new property, less than a 8 week turn around!! The smoothest and stress free experience with these guys. Special mention to Andy and Molly for being so proactive and efficient. Thank you for helping us find our forever home 🏠 🌟

I recently sold my property through Location Location and I would like to commend Andy and Molly for their outstanding professionalism and efficiency throughout the entire process. From the initial valuation to the completion of the sale, the service provided was exemplary. They demonstrated a thorough understanding of the local property market, offering clear and well-informed advice that helped achieve an excellent outcome. Communication was consistent and transparent and I was kept fully informed at every stage. My thanks go to Andy and Molly whose attention to detail, courteous manner and proactive approach ensured the sale progressed smoothly and within a very satisfactory timeframe. I would have no hesitation in recommending Location Location to anyone seeking a dependable and highly professional estate agency to manage the sale of their property.

I cant recommend this company highly enough. From start to finish, Andrew & Molly were professional, kind, honest, respectful and hardworking. An estate agents with a different approach to selling. Thank you very much for all of your help and support.

My first interaction with Location Location (Andrew), was the attempted purchase of a property in Barnham. Unfortunately, whilst being the highest bidders we were deemed unproceedable by the sellers. Andrew went above and beyond with advice and guidance to bring my property to market, which took me a little over two months to carry the work. With frequent check-ins, which were not push in the slightest. Once my property was ready to bring to market, Andrew managed our expectations of the potential price. Both Andrew and Molly did a Stella job in securing an above market asking price and really made the sale seamless. I’ve always been reluctant to trust estate agents, like car salesmen, but I can’t fault the service at all! Would highly recommend Location location! Cheers Team!

We’ve just bought our new home through LOCATION LOCATION IN THETFORD and we honestly couldn’t be happier with the whole experience. Buying a house is such a huge moment in life, and Molly is a start, she has made it feel exciting rather than overwhelming. This house already feels so special to us, and we’ll always be grateful to Molly for helping us make it a reality. We couldn’t recommend them highly enough to anyone looking to find their next home.
