Harper Macleod handled both our house sale and our new build property purchase. We couldn't have asked for a more professional and efficient transaction in both from start to finish. Thanks to Karen and the sales team for a speedy sale, much quicker than expected with great communication and service. Many thanks to Michelle for all her advice and hard work, even after a gap of five months to the new property purchase we were expertly guided to the end.
