Penvale Anmeldelser 24

Josh has been a delight to work with. My partner and I are first time buyers and so found the whole landscape of buying a home, and the complexities therein, quite daunting. After explaining the different tiers of service on offer, Josh gave us clear, measured advice in-line with the tier we chose. He was proactive and always available and happy to answer our questions. It really felt like we had someone on our side throughout all of this. We chose to get help in making a sensible offer and, thanks to Josh, we had an offer accepted that was £25k below asking.

Josh's professionalism, knowledge and friendly service alleviated all the pain and managed any stress that comes with the property market.

His years of experience shone through. Whether it was knowing when to put pressure on third parties, recommending services or spotting potential leasehold issues. Added to which, his negotiations considerably reduced the asking price and comfortably covered the cost of his services many times over.

Most of us only have a layman's understanding of the property industry at best. Yet the financial decisions made can be life-changing (and sadly, some people may try to exploit that). So having Josh and Penvale's services on your side, fighting your corner, is a huge benefit.

I recommend their services in a heartbeat.

Josh was incredibly helpful making a stressful negotiation much more painless and ensuring we were able to quickly get our offer accepted and ensure we were fully educated on the whole process as first time buyers. Can’t thank him enough for getting us into our dream home.

Josh helped us negotiate and get our offer accepted on our first home. As first time buyers, there was a lot we didn't know going into the process. Having Josh on our side really helped us understand what steps to take next, what was typical and what wasn't, and how to deal with unexpected challenges that came up along the way. He spent a lot of time with us talking us through the options for making our offer and then negotiating, and was easily accessible for advice during the whole time we worked with him, which was much appreciated! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend working with Josh, we wouldn't have been able to move as quickly as we did without him!

Josh helped us buy our first flat - and we definitely couldn't have done it without him! First, he helped us secure the place by advising us on what to bid after it had gone to final and best offer. Then, throughout the process he liaised with the vendors' agent, helped us source the necessary service providers, and generally pushed things through very quickly. The unexpected end of our rental contract meant we were on a very tight deadline — coupled with having to exchange while on a pre-planned trip to Australia. Josh made what would otherwise have been a stressful experience feel easy and smooth. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend him!

It was great working with Josh. He was very responsive and knowledgeable and really helped to make the process as smooth as possible. Aside from his help mediating and negotiating, there were instances where, as a first time buyer, it was great to have someone to give me more information and suggest possible ways forward. I would highly recommend!

I can't say enough good things about working with Josh. I truly don't believe I would be living in my flat now if it weren't for him. He was a huge support throughout every decision. I also found it incredibly helpful that he talked through each part so I understood what was happening and why. He went above and beyond to make sure every aspect was managed quickly and efficiently. It was an added bonus that he's also just a lovely person as well! I'm recommending him to family and friends already.

It’s hard to overstate just how good Josh and Penvale are. We can honestly say we would have not got the move to our dream home down without their help. Josh is attentive, diligent, calm in a crisis and, most importantly, a thoroughly decent and good natured man. We couldn’t recommend Penvale more to anyone going through the sale/purchase process. Absolutely delighted with the decision to work with them!

If you haven't purchased your first property yet, it's tough to explain how challenging the path can be. We have done it twice already and the first time around we didn't have Josh to hold our hand, we didn't know that such service existed, and we managed, but it was painful. I am very organised and precise, but the sheer amount of little details/ technicalities here and there, it's a full time job on top of everything else that you are doing in your life, it consumes you. The second time around, we were lucky to be supported by Josh from negotiations to completion and I don't know how we would have managed without him. We had a chain of 3 properties and he helped us reduce the price of the purchase, exchange on our desired date and through all this we had someone on our side saving us hours of phone calling, emailing, headace and stress. You would think that everyone wants to sell/buy and it shouldn't be that complicated, but trust me, it's never as straightfoward as you want it to be. My husband and I are very grateful to Josh for all his support and work on this, he is also just a very nice person and fun to work with :)

Josh is very friendly and knowledgeable about all aspects of property buying. I really don't think the purchase of our first home would have gone through if it wasn't for his knowledge, experience, and persistence in getting the sale completed. He really made the process as easy as it could be for us. I can't recommend Penvale enough if you're looking at purchasing property

I want to start by saying that my partner and I were both skeptical about this negotiation service as we hadn’t heard of it before. However, after speaking with Josh and especially after working with them, I can confidently say I would 100% recommend their services to anyone. Josh is extremely knowledgeable and professional. He not only helped us secure our dream property at a price lower than the asking price—despite a competitive bidding market but also ensured that the sale of our current property progressed smoothly in order to give us the best chance of success in the buying market. I'm certain that without Josh, we would never have succeeded in getting an offer accepted on such a highly sought-after property, especially given that we were competing against first-time buyers with bigger budgets and cash buyers. Finally I wanted to add that despite our very tight budget, I believe the money spent on this service has been the best investment we've made in the entire buying and selling process.
Thank you again for everything.

I would highly recommend Josh! Josh made the process faster, smoother and overall less stressful. His expertise and knowledge goes beyond the negotiation and he is willing to go above and beyond to help his clients. Will keep Josh and his team in mind for every house purchase going forward.

Pricing was very transparent and very worth the initial investment.

It was a delight to work with Penvale on the purchase of my first flat - from negotiation to completion. Josh's support and guidance throughout the whole process was invaluable. He was great at building trust with the agency from the start and then to keep things moving forward and making sure the whole chain was aligned and communicating in order to reach completion. I can't recommend his services enough!

It was a pleasure working with Josh. He is great guy, very knowledgable and helpful, and he really helped to not only bring our stress levels down during negotiations, but also get our dream house. I'd thoroughly recommend him

We used Penvale's Negotiation service and they delivered an exceptional outcome. Josh's expert knowledge of the real estate industry, ability to extract as much information as possible from selling agents and tactical approach to submitting the best offer is truly impressive. From the countless number of calls, answering constant questions to being patient with us… going 'above and beyond' is an understatement - thank you Josh for helping our family kickstart the next chapter. Looking forward to working together again in the not too distant future!

We used Penvale for the purchase of our first property, from price negotiation to completion. The help we received has been invaluable. Despite many bumps in the process and a negotiation that proved to be very difficult, Josh managed to secure a great deal for us and helped solving all the issues during the process. Always professional, friendly and reassuring, could not recommend his service more. His help has been invaluable in the interaction with our solicitor too, as he followed up on pending things on our behalf , and removed a lot of stress from us. In summary: removed a lot of work and stress from the process and guided us with professionalism and experience. I would give 10 stars if I could!

We had never heard of a buying agent before getting a recommendation for Josh. We were initially unsure if we needed any help with our buying process when looking for our family home.
We are so glad that we decided to use a buying agent and that we went with Josh. He knew the industry inside out and before we even considered making an offer, he was a great sounding board at every step of the buying and selling journey. He went above and beyond to research the properties we were interested in and when we decided to make an offer and got to the negotiation stage his strategic advice was invaluable. Not only did he ensure we were presented as the best possible buyers, but he also got us the best price which was significantly lower than what we would have offered without his help. We would highly recommend Josh's services and it's been an absolute pleasure working with him.

Josh is a truly outstanding professional. He has an intimate knowledge of the real estate market and a deep understanding of all the pre and post transaction dynamics. He’s helped me successfully complete a very complex sell and buy double transaction. His negotiation skills are second to none. Great attention to details and an outstanding work ethic. I cannot recommend him enough!

I used the negotiation service. Josh built a great relationship with the agent for me as well and constantly frequently communicated with me.
Thanks to him, my offer got accepted with much less amount than we had originally heard and expected!
Josh's support was not only for the negotiation part but also the whole process until the conveyancing start, which made me feel secured and I could feel I had a strong supporter.
When next time I buy a property, I will definitely come back here to ask for his service.
Thank you so much Josh!!

Josh helped us navigate the UK home buying process and negotiations upon our return from the USA (which has a very different process!). He is very responsive and explains everything very clearly. His service was excellent for us as expats returning home who had never bought a home in the UK before!
