We cannot thank Beth and her team (especially Nicky) for the exceptional patience, efficiency and professionalism extended to us in our painstaking housefinding and eventual wonderful property purchase in Axmouth. I'm afraid we have to confess we were not the easiest prospects to deal with but thanks to Beth we got there in the end!
Thanks also for the welcome card and bottle of bubbly.
Best wishes,
Dave and Wendy Webb

Very good service all the way through what was a tortuous process when there were many challenges. Bethany Jeffery went above and beyond to help us draw a very stressful process to a satisfactory conclusion.

I cannot thank everyone at John Wood in Seaton enough, they acted with the utmost professionalism and helpfulness throughout a sale due to bereavement.
We couldn't have hoped for a more positive experience under the circumstances and I cannot thank them enough.

Great all round service, exceptional knowledge, responsive and easy to talk to. Lesley & Beth are a credit to the company.
Just bought a holiday home and as I was buying from a different area I relied on the agent for local information. I run an estate agency business myself in the south/east and found this company very impressive.

The whole team were efficient and quick to respond, regardless of whether they were directly involved in the sale or not. We chose John Wood & Co. because of their demonstrable local knowledge, honest approach and practical attitude. There was no "schmoozing", promises to deliver the earth or unrealistic valuation. They know their stuff, they deliver and they should be your first choice for selling a property in this area.

Been trying to view a house for 6 weeks. Between one person trying to put me off by bad mouthing the property and another person answering the phone with a 'yeh'. I've given up. I'll be checking out other places

As a buyer new to the area due to retirement I received excellent service and help in searching and viewing property on their listings. They dealt with purchase efficiently and made the whole process as straight forward as possible. Chelle Walsh in particular was of great help and went beyond the call of duty in helping me settle in the area.
This kind of service is invaluable when going through a potentially stressful situation like purchasing property.

Very happy with the professional service we received from John Wood & Co
Chelle, the office manager was very responsive to our request to promote our property at such short notice. She had it photographed the same day as the valuation and live on rightmove within 4 days,
despite it being a bank holiday weekend. Sold in less than a week and completion in 8 weeks.
I know, unheard of. Thank you for your fast paced professional support. Would definitely recommend the Seaton office.

We were so lucky to have found our forever home in Seaton and so fortunate to have purchased it through John Wood & Co. They are a very professional Company and handled everything in a friendly and supportive way. This balance of professionalism linked with friendliness was so important. They always remained patient and understanding throughout a very lengthy house moving process, which was so reassuring for us. They were always very proactive in checking the status of our buyer’s chain and how things were progressing.
We would wholeheartedly recommend John Wood & Co. and award them 5 stars for every aspect of their Company.

Right from the start John Wood impressed us with their advice on the initial phone call and then promptly coming to value our property in order to get it on the market was soon as possible. They also marketed our property well with good photos and a variety of online sites. Great service all the way through, especially during the trying times of covid!
