What Our Clients Say About Us
Read what our clients have to say about their experience with MQ Estate Agents.
I was very happy as I never expected it to go as quickly as that, for such a good price.
I had been made executor of my late mum’s estate and it came time to sell her house.
I’ve been in my own home for 26 years, so I have no recent experience of selling a property. Someone recommended I should go with MQ and now I am so glad I did.
The house went on the market on the Thursday and I had an acceptable offer on the Monday morning.
The second person booked to view it didn’t even get a chance to see it! It was offers-over £115,000 and MQ managed to get me £3500 on top of that. I was very happy as I never expected it to go as quickly as that, for such a good price.
Everything was explained to me in advance and I took advantage of their offer to do the viewings.
I’d even go as far as to say I was shocked at the speed of the sale. I told my sister what had happened – and she was gobsmacked! Well done to the MQ team.
Mairi Thomson,, selling a three-bed mid-terrace house in East Kilbride, South Lanarkshire.
Barry and his team were so professional
We went the whole hog with MQ – not only did we sell our house through them, we bought one too.
We hadn’t really been planning on a move but I suppose we had this itch that if the right property came up, we would go for it. We spotted a detached house MQ were selling in Hamilton that ticked all our boxes.
Things moved quite quickly after that. MQ asked us who we were going to use to sell our house and when we said ‘no-one, yet’ they offered to put it on the market.
Yes, we were putting all our eggs in one basket but I reckoned we couldn’t lose. We were buying the house in Hamilton, subject to us selling our own house so it was in MQ’s interests to find us a buyer quick. It took them just three working days.
The house went ‘live’ on the Thursday and by the Monday, we had an offer just above the Home Report value.
I could not fault the service from MQ. Getting a buyer for our house allowed us to go through with the purchase in Hamilton.
Barry and his team were so professional in the way they went about their business.
I would recommend them without even thinking about it.
Campbell Crawford, selling a three-bed terraced house in East Kilbride, South Lanarkshire.
I would happily recommend MQ.
Barry and Holly had done really well when it came to selling my mum’s house after she passed away in 2019. I am a nurse, working 12 hour shifts. I don’t have time to chase things up with people you can’t rely on.
When I was selling my mum’s house last year, I invited three or four estate agents out to have a look at the property. None of them compared to Barry.
That is why we went back to MQ when we had to sell the home of my partner’s mother, who also sadly died.
I took Barry’s advice on what to do with the property. It needed decorating and I asked if we should do that first. He said:”No, put it on the market.”
It went really well and the house sold pretty quickly and above Home Report value, too.
I would happily recommend MQ. Everything was straightforward. Holly kept in touch with me all the time. They don’t mess about.
Alison Towns, selling a stone-built two bed cottage in Larkhall, South Lanarkshire.
The price was more than I expected to get.
When you are considering using any kind of new service, it is generally the reviews most people look at first. I was in a neighbouring town when I saw a MQ billboard on a house they were selling.
When I got home, I took a look at their website ‘testimonials’ and was impressed with what I saw. I thought ‘that will do for me’.
Selling my house was made all the more difficult by the fact that I was in isolation during lockdown, due to my medical condition. But everyone at MQ was great. Barry, in particular, was very patient and took time to listen to me.
The property went on the market on the last Thursday in July, the first viewers were in on the Saturday and a sale was agreed four weeks later.
The price was more than I expected to get. If I phoned the MQ office and the person I wanted was not available, they phoned me back right away. I would happily recommend them, definitely.
John Quinn, selling a three-bed semi bungalow in Dechmont Village in West Lothian
If I could give them more than five stars out of five, I would.
Before we fled to MQ, we made a catastrophic error by choosing an online estate agency.
We had spoken to Barry beforehand but thought the market was booming and we reckoned our house would sell nomatter who was selling it.
How wrong were we? The agency mistakenly ‘reduced’ our property’s value by £20,000 – just one of a catalogue of calamities. I found myself repeatedly saying to my partner ‘we should have listened to Barry!’
When we decided to cut ties with our original agent there was absolutely no debate about who we wanted to represent us and we were straight on the phone to MQ! Luckily (despite us not picking them in the first place) they welcomed us with open arms.
I should have known MQ are great. I had previously rented a property from them and found them to be absolutely outstanding.
Our house was only on the market with them for a couple of weeks when our flat sold for a price we were delighted with. Holly is an absolute superstar. Brilliant to work with, she also has a sparkling personality which gave me great confidence. Everyone in the office was professional, friendly and did exactly what they said they would do.
If I could give them more than five stars out of five, I would.
If I ever hear of anyone I know selling a property, I now tell them ‘Look no further than MQ
