Mr Lee Burngie, November 2012
"Just a quick note to thank you both for all the help, support and professional advice leading up to contract completion. From my perspective, and thanks to you both, it was a relatively straight forward and painless exercise."
Charles, January 2013
"Denise O'Neil acted on my behalf and she was brilliant. She even visited my home with the paperwork, sat and talked me through the documents that needed signing. It was a very nice touch to have met her in person. She was excellent with feedback and dealt with any queries promptly and efficiently. I would use Setfords again should the need arise"
Barbara Works, January 2013
