Unsolicited testimonials..........from happy customers. Alright, one was a bit annoyed, but just look at why she was annoyed...... 100 telephone calls a week! Wow! You just wont get that from other property sites. |
love the blog on France John Regards Markus I thought that I would just drop you a line to say how much I enjoy your words of wisdom. Based on your considerable property experience, you do certainly make a great deal of sense, and it is quite refreshing, when I look at the vast number of sales emails I am sent, particularly in relation to buying property overseas. Stephen Wright Gainsborough Just found your blog. You write well and make a lot of sense. I am trawling through your past newsletters. Please send me details of how to obtain a copy of your book and how to pay for it. Many thanks. David It's happened at last ! I've finally sold St.James. Although thru my estate agents 'Fine & Country' , I still felt my property received a good response from your website ! Just recently at least 5 people have expressed an interest but alas it had already gone. So please could you remove the listing and thank you once again Chris Jones I would like to thank you for the exposure that your site gives, as I received many enquiries from around the world as well as UK. I received the asking price and would not hesitate to recommend your site.Thanks again. Alex McLennan Thanks for the link to your blog, nicely written and funny! Dan I found your article on ‘Should I buy in Spain’ very useful. Thanks. What is your opinion on France? Or have I missed that one. The new website looks ‘cool’. Shirley Just wanted to send you a quick email to say Thank you for putting our property on your website. We have had three enquiries already, one from Australia, your Unique site reaches the entire planet so we are bound to get a sale now. Sandra Sales. I just wanted to say a big thank you to you for having such a brilliant website and also for putting my church at the top of your list; thank you. The very day that you put it on, it was seen by the Scottish Sunday express, who phoned me up for an interview the very next day! As requested, I sent them my photographs and further information. That Sunday, there was a half page editorial about converted churches in Scotland, there was a brilliant section on my church and the only three pictures they'd printed were of my church as well. If that wasn't enough, BBC Birmingham phoned me up and are going to use my photos and info in a slot in one of their programmes in about three months, called 'To Buy or Not to Buy'! Thanks again John. Wendy. Had an enquiry only yesterday. Have had lots of interest, even a story in the newspaper, but no one seems to be able to sell their own house. David Thanks John, i have complete faith in you to do a fab job. By the way all the flattery is well deserved, you have got a way with words and your site is just great. Thanks Miryam. We are delighted to have sold our chateau through advertising on the Unique Property site. This site generated far more enquiries than all the estate agents put together and John was very helpful and gave unlimited assistance throughout. I would have no hesitation in recommending the site to others. Lynne Brookes, Chateau Joncasses Hi John, Thank you very much, I am enjoying immensley looking at your finds! If you ever have the chance to put together a West Country bulletin, that would be brilliant for me! Obviously, you must be inundated with requests, but i guess if you don't ask . . .!! Many Thanks, keep up the good work! Katie I signed up for your site at the start of the year and I am finding it really useful. Anyway, I will keep looking at all that you send and thank you for all the work that you do on the site Best wishes Karen I don’t want to be a subscriber to your excellent website any more, thanks. It’s given me a lot of fun. Josie Thomas Dear John St Peters Church, Brixham Please remove my listing as the property completed yesterday. Thank you very much for a great site, you listed the church when no other estate agent would. Karen Thanks John One visit last week and two more scheduled for next week – things looking up – fingers crossed. Hope you are well. Regards Lynne We have now sold The Old Cornmill and moved out so could you please now remove it from your website as we are still getting enquiries! We have had more enquiries from the Unique website than from any other source. Thanks for your assistance Janet & Graham Rundle John, I've just accepted an offer before Easter, but if it's OK, can I leave it on until I know the sale is done? I have been responding to a continuing 1-2 enquiries per week over the last few weeks. thanks Allen Could you please remove the property that WE have NOW SOLD from your website as I do not appreciate having to answer 100+ calls about a property that has nearly completed. Heather Willis Thanks to you too! I've just had an enquiry for both of these from an S.Hepworth - your site certainly works ! John The leads are still flying in from your website, plus I'm receiving calls - I'll keep you posted as soon as any pop. Pete I thought I would just give you a bit of an update re the station property of mine that you have listed for sale in rural Mid Wales. There has been fair interest off your site though to date no hard offer. However, there has also been interest from a freelance property journalist, BBC researcher for the proverbial ' dream home renovation' prog., and someone in Cape Town who runs a property website that has feature articles on areas of interest! Many thanks indeed, your website clearly gets a lot of attention. Debbie Harding I love this site which I regularly view. Yvonne Glover-Horne The first person to view has made an offer and asked me to remove the chapel from your site. Don't know if the price is too low or what, but anyway I will still send details out in case it doesn't go through. Meanwhile I will need to send you the £15 as it was well worth it because I have had around 17 enquiries since. I have now found your address on your home page. Do you think I should remove the chapel from the site or could you put a sstc sign on it as this will also show people that your site works very well. Many thanks Pat I really appreciate your work sending us people. Alberto I just wanted to say that your site is one of the best user friendly I have come across, thank you and keep up the good work Gwyneth Calvert-painter I'm really impressed with the number of people contacting me who've seen our property on your website. Thank you for this service! I've taken a look myself and you've done a great job with the listing. Jean-Claude Freyche Hi John, it looks nice and I had already two interested visitors on e-mail. Walter whilst I'm emailing, I just wanted to say thanks lots and lots for running a great site. I was mid house hunting when I joined and i'm now currently in the process of buying something absolutely gorgeous I found on it *fingers crossed it all goes through!* Claire Thank you for your update but, please, would you remove subject property from your website. We are getting more and more calls from magazines, TV programmes and people who are disappointed to find that house was sold in April. Janet Hoper Just to let you know, that after a race of 3 people after our house, someone successfully bought it! So if you could take us off your website I would be grateful. Thank you for your hard work. Janie Arnold I sure like your 'terms and conditions' for members... like the humor and the straightforward, clear information. It was nice to not just see a form letter. Jan Rodman Just to let you know I've now sold the Chapel for £85k (best serious offer received). We got at least 2-3 enquiries a week, right up until this week. Allen Davis I would also like to compliment you on your brilliant website. I have passed your web address on to many other people,and they think the same. Many thanks again, Philip Kennington. I wasn't anticipating newspaper coverage!! Thanks so much. Michelle I am thrilled with the replies we are getting from your site Fiona. I have already had 3 enquiries, quite amazing. Paul We have our property for sale on your website. Channel 4 have seen it there and have come to visit us. They will film our house next week for the programme: A Place by the sea. Wow that was unexpected! Would it be worthwhile to mention this on the website somewhere? Monica Today a French TV company was filming us for a programme on unusual houses in the UK. They were telling us about other converted churches they found on your site and we thought maybe we should be on it too, as people searching for unusual properties or specifically churches might find us there. Angela For your interest we have been featured on SW television. Local papers and the Daily Telegraph as a result of being on your site and have had over 100 enquiries. Simon Mole Tremendous website. I'm looking for renovation properties. I am also a PAN and HPA recipient. Thats where I found you. Jane Enjoyed your articles how do I order your book. Allan Connal First of all, let me tell you that I have really enjoyed your web site and have referred it to many friends. Mark Miller I've been a member of your site for a good few years now, its one of a kind and well put together.

We have now accepted offers of the full asking price on both of the churches which came from the first person to see the large church and then the 3 set of people to see the smaller one (the first person who viewed also put in an offer!) All of these came through you!!! Thank you so very much!!! I will continue to recommend you to everybody I know!!
