He couldn’t have made the process any easier for us, keeping us updated throughout and going above and beyond to help the deal over the line. Thank you so much Kieran we appreciate how caring and passionate you were throughout and all the running around you did for us!Posted on Luke STrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Highly recommendedPosted on Catherine DownieTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have just sold our family house in Hove. Simon Lemcke was a excellent agent to work with throughout the whole process. As we all know it is a stressful time for all involved and Simon was very professional at all times.Posted on Harry PeelTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a very positive experience working with Simon from Tailor James during our house purchase. As the agent acting for our seller, he was professional, approachable and helpful throughout the entire process. He was also quick to respond to queries and ensured that any issues were addressed promptly. This made a real difference in keeping momentum in the transaction/chain.Posted on Georgie KnightTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I cannot thank Simon Lemke at Tailor James enough for the experience we have had buying our new home in Hove through him and the team. It has been seamless and Simon has been so supportive and helpful throughout the process.Posted on Samira CapozziTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. After using Taylor James I would never choose any other estate agent again. Jimmy genuinely cared and gave a very different service to any other estate agent I’ve met. He is extremely experienced in this area and took fantastic photos and his communication was brilliant. Our sale very nearly fell through twice and Jimmy went way above what was expected, helping out in other areas of the chain and working very long hours to save our sale, and he did it! I have no doubt it would have fallen through and we would have lost a lot of money if it weren’t for Jimmy. Thank you so much and I’ve already been recommending you to anyone who asks me!Posted on Sophie GeorgeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I worked with Simon Lemcke to sell my flat in Hove. It was a really excellent experience from start to finish; Simon worked incredibly hard, chased every lead and ultimately found a buyer for my flat in a short space of time. He was continually in contact and supported the process from start to finish. I can't recommend working with him enough.Posted on Paul HickmanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jimmy helped sell our flat in Kemptown. Lovely to deal with from start to finish. He made us feel confident throughout the whole process with a very personal touch. He even helped with advice on the property we were buying. 100% would recommend!Posted on Will WiltshireTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a great experience selling through Tailor James. I’d highly recommend using them. Jimmy was very attentive and personal and got me a little bit more than I was expecting for my flat in Hove given the market.Posted on sue ubaguTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’m absolutely delighted by the service I’ve received from the whole team at Tailor James! Simon promised to market my property with commitment and dedication, be available for help and advice 24/7, and work hard to achieve an excellent result He was true to his word, and actually exceeded expectations! I have been so impressed by Simon’s expertise, level of commitment and understanding, and the way he supported me throughout the whole process. I hadn’t appreciated how much help I would be given once I had accepted an offer: Simon was always available to give helpful advice and reassurance, answer my queries, and liaise with my buyer and solicitor; right up to the day of completion! Tailor James has helped make what could have been a stressful time into a very positive experience!
