I have been meaning to write to you for some time but somehow was unable to find the time until now. I would like to thank you for your wonderful work in helping us exchange and then complete on the purchase of our property in Avening. It wasn't the easiest of transactions but we got there in the end, mainly thanks to your hard work and professionalism. It was a real pleasure dealing with you from beginning to end and I am so grateful to you for always dealing with queries/issues quickly and efficiently.
We are now almost completely unpacked (bar a couple of boxes in the garage!) and have settled very well in our new home. Our dream to live in the Cotswolds has finally come true! Thank you again.
Seamless and simple
Managing the sale of a property from another country can be extremely challenging. Josh provided thoughtful advice, managed the process efficiently and communicated consistently. We are extremely pleased with the outcome. (July 2022)
I could not have chosen better people to sell my house, than Josh and Jo. I'd met up with other agents previously, but am so glad I went with them. Right from the beginning, it felt like I was getting a bespoke, personalised service. Everything was dealt with professionally, and they took time to learn details about my property, and keep me informed.
Great care was taken with all aspects of the process; from photographing the property in the best light, to how viewings were arranged and conducted. Josh is extremely dedicated and experienced, and this was apparent during all interactions. I felt he understood my property, and was confident that viewers would see it in the best light, and value the personal approach.
The property sold within a few days, and I feel this was down to Josh and Jo's hard work, and commitment. I would strongly recommend going with them to sell your home if you want to minimise stress, and receive an exceptional service.
From the 'get go' Josh and Jo were fantastic. From putting our house on the market and securing an offer very quickly to getting us through exchange and completion. Exchange and completion were exceptionally stressful due to complications in the chain but knowing Josh was always there pushing and chasing and liaising with solicitors and estate agents on our behalf made us feel confident the sale would go through.....as it did and we are now settled in our dream home. We can't thank Josh enough as we feel he really lived and breathed our sale and he went above and beyond more so than any other estate agent we have used in pervious years. We dealt with Josh mainly and will say that he is very professional, passionate and dedicated and gets the job done in a very friendly manner. He was always available to answer any queries we had, put our minds at constant ease and kept us updated on the process throughout.
We would highly recommend Josh, Jo and the team at Ford Loveday Estate Agency if you want to sell/purchase a property. You will be in the best hands for sure. No other agency comes close! Jo & Will
Exceptional Agent! - Josh has been an absolute dream to have acting on our behalf. The genuine customer care, communication and attention to detail was simply superb. We first met Josh when he showed us around another property. As we had been looking at many properties in the area and outside the area, we had experienced many different styles of agent, so knew exactly what we were looking for. Josh takes his job very seriously, is hungry for the work, really listens to your needs and makes it his business to know every detail about the property and neighbourhood he is representing. This sets him apart from other agents.
Josh sold our property in a very short timescale and achieved the asking price. He worked with us flexibly on when we were able to do viewings but was straightforward and honest with us encouraging us to be flexible, in order to maximise the number of viewings we would get. Josh provided excellent guidance throughout the whole process and took the stress away from us liaising regularly with solicitors and not leaving a stone unturned. We knew we were in safe hands and had total confidence in Josh. It felt like an old friend was selling our house and not an Estate Agent.
We would highly recommend the personal service Josh provides and look forward to using him again for our next move!!
Thankyou once again Josh.

I would like to say that it has been a pleasure working with Josh Ford-Loveday. I really appreciate how understanding and proactive he has been throughout the transaction and for his pleasant and friendly attitude, attention to detail and assertiveness in processing our sale, not just between us and our buyers but also with our solicitors, and other professionals involved both down the chain and through to our own purchase.
Josh maintained a continuous two-way contact with our sales consultant to the point where she commented that Josh was the best Estate Agent she had had dealings with. An accolade indeed, which we heartily support.
I have worked with estate agents for 11 years and Josh is by far the most amazing agent I have had the pleasure in dealing with. He recently dealt with the property for the couple who have moved to us and he worked so hard on this. It is almost unheard of that estate agents make contact throughout the chain however like clock work Josh would always update us.
Without Josh’s dedication and support on this sale I don’t think things would have moved as quickly and for this I wish to thank him.
We felt it important to write a note to express our complete satisfaction.
Right from the start your unquestionable local expertise shone through in comparison to our experience with the other national agents. You found the sweet spot on price and gathered a steady stream of well qualified potential purchasers.
Once we had a serious buyer, Josh did a sterling job in keeping the buyers hooked and seeing the process through to conclusion.
We couldn’t have been more impressed and will most definitely be recommending Josh to all our friends
Super experience purchasing our new home through Josh. As someone who is in the estate agency industry myself, we truly felt very well looked after throughout the purchase, and Josh was always just a phone call away from any queries or questions we had. Thank you!

We just want to say what a pleasure it was to have Ford Loveday as our agent when we recently sold our house in Minchinhampton. Their communication was exceptional (not an area in which estate agents usually excel!) and they took away so much of the stress from us. Thank you so much!
We have been so impressed with the help and support that Josh has given us throughout the process of selling our property. Josh has been incredibly kind, knowledgeable, trustworthy and always available to answer any questions or offer his expertise and advice. Josh has consistently exceeded our expectations at every stage, always being thorough and ensuring that everything was done properly, from photographs to viewings and communication.

Just wanted to say many thanks for getting the buyer and others to view the property and for the expedient way the deal was able to be completed in three months.
Your efforts and communications with us through the process were much appreciated. Thank you.
He was the fastest to respond to our invitation to make a pitch for our business.
He was personally and strongly recommended by former colleagues.
Once accepted he had outline ‘taster’ notes about the property, including a photo of our garden online on social media (Facebook) within 24 hours. He had the first requests to view, and the first offer before the weekend was out.
Josh then posted the details about the house on Rightmove, and we left for 10 days in Cornwall/Isles of Scilly. Whilst we were away Josh had 16 requests for viewing, 4 confirmed offers at the asking price, and hosted a ‘Best & Final Offers’ competition resulting in an accepted offer at over £50,000 up on the asking price.

Dear Josh and Jo,
I hope this letter finds you both well. I am writing to express my sincerest gratitude for the wonderful service you provided as our estate agents. Your expertise and professionalism made the process of selling our house much smoother than we anticipated.
Unfortunately, we have had to make the difficult decision to pull our house off the market. I am aware that this may have caused some inconvenience for you, and for that, I am truly sorry. Please know that this decision was not taken lightly, and we have great appreciation for all the hard work you put into helping us sell our home.
Your dedication to ensuring that all aspects of the sale were handled professionally and efficiently did not go unnoticed. From your exceptional communication skills to your thorough understanding of the local property market, you both provided us with a level of service that exceeded our expectations.
Once again, thank you for your efforts and commitment to helping us sell our home. I would highly recommend your services to anyone in need of a reliable estate agent. I wish you both all the best in your future endeavors.
Best regards,
Henry and Jess
