Rebecca is an extremely pleasant and professional person to deal with. She is both extremely knowledgeable and sensitive to the needs of her clients.

We would recommend her for her knowledge, understanding and ability to ‘read’ a situation!

She exhibits a caring and empathetic ability to put clients at ease.

She is also very approachable and willing to support clients!

Excellent from start to finish - house sale

Worked with Amanda for the sale of our property. We were really impressed with her efficiency; she was always quick to respond to any queries that we had and kept us dated throughout the process, as well as ensuring the process was handled smoothly and within a really reasonable time frame.
Amanda was really friendly, approachable and very professional throughout out dealings with Dootsons. When dropping off paperwork, all staff on the front desk were always friendly and professional also. Would definitely recommend Dootsons to others. Thank you.

I've used Dootsons twice and would not hesitate to recommend them for conveyancing. They have always been fast, thorough, professional and willing to go above and beyond to make sure your purchase or sale goes through as smoothly as possible.
