IN-HOUSE COMPLAINTS PROCEDURE

If you have a complaint, we will ask that you please put it in writing and give as much information as possible. We will then respond in line with the timeframes set out below (if you feel we have not sought to address your complaints within eight weeks, you may be able to refer your complaint to the Property Ombudsman to consider without our final viewpoint on the matter).

What will happen next?

We will send you a letter acknowledging receipt of your complaint within three working days of receiving it, enclosing a copy of this procedure.
We will then investigate your complaint. This will normally be dealt with by the office manager who will review your file and speak to the member of staff who dealt with you. A formal written outcome of our investigation will be sent to you within 15 working days of sending the acknowledgement letter.
If, at this stage, you are still not satisfied, you should contact us again and we will arrange for a separate review to take place by a senior member of staff.
We will write to you within 15 working days of receiving your request for a review, confirming our final viewpoint on the matter.
If you remain dissatisfied, you can then contact The Property Ombudsman to request an independent review:

The Property Ombudsman Ltd
Milford House
43-45 Milford Street
Salisbury
Wiltshire
SP1 2BP
01722 333 306

Please note the following:
You will need to submit your complaint to The Property Ombudsman within 12 months of receiving our final viewpoint letter, including any evidence to support your case. The Property Ombudsman requires that all complaints are addressed through this in-house complaints procedure, before being submitted for an independent review.

See what new homes are for offer and take a delve into more of my day to day life

🌟 Still loving every moment, every day, even after all these years 🌟There’s a rhythm to being instructed on a home to sell…That first call to book a viewing.
The follow-up afterwards, sometimes amazing news, sometimes having to manage expectations.The reassuring chat with a nervous buyer about their survey.
Offering to pop back to the house to check something because the buyers live miles away.Turning up early.
Heating on.
Cushions straightened, lights just right, prepping for someone to imagine their future.And then comes that call…
“We’ve done it.”
Followed by the message that never gets old:“Thank you so much for all you’ve done.”I started in property in 2001, and I’ll never forget being told:“These ladies work hard, and you need to prove yourself.” Catherine Anderson ~ still the best advice of my 20’s!I came into this industry full of passion and over the years, every colleague, every team, every client, every home, every moment has only deepened it. I hope that shines through in everything I do. 🏡✨Here’s to the early starts, the late calls, the nerves, the excitement… and the joy of helping people move forward. 💛#EstateAgent #PropertyLife #Since2001 #GoingTheExtraMile #HomeSellingJourney

🏡 From A Viewing to A Final Sale 🏡Sometimes, the right person walks into your life at just the right moment. For this family, it all started when they came to view a property… and saw Maddie in action. 💫That very first meeting left such an impression that when it came time to sell their long-loved family home, they didn’t even consider anyone else.With Maddie’s personal yet professional touch, her experience, enthusiasm, and unwavering care for every detail, what could have been a stressful, emotional rollercoaster turned into a smooth and memorable journey. 🌟“We couldn’t and wouldn’t have done it without you, Maddie!” 💛Stories like these remind us why we do what we do,  it’s never just about selling a home, but about helping families start their next chapter with confidence and peace of mind.#ClientJourney #HomeSweetHome #SuccessStory #HappyClients #PropertyWithHeart #EstateAgentExcellence

School’s out, the sun’s out… and so is another SOLD board ☀️✨This afternoon, my daughter cycled past Great Norwood Street & spotted my SOLD board and proudly said, “It should be AL!” (her initials) and in that moment, everything I juggle as a mummy and business owner felt beautifully worth it.Running an agency while being present for her isn’t always easy, but moments like these remind me exactly why I do it.If you’ve followed my journey, supported my business, or just love a behind-the-scenes glimpse of property and real life, thank you 🙏🏼#SOLDbyAL #Cheltenhamhomes #QuietLuxury #PersonalService
