Thanks to the team at Swiitch who acted for us in the sale of our property and the purchase of our new home. Special thanks to Oli Haley who made the whole process a smooth and stress free experience. We would highly recommend him.
10/10 service Excellent service every time there is a transaction, Haleema Raja always keeps me updated and is positive and helpful with each communication. Makes my job so much easier and is fantastic to deal with - i would recommend her to anyone buying or selling a house
From the start of selling my house and purchasing my bungalow Kelly Brown and Amy Cornforth have let me know all i needed to know along the way and simply couldn't have been any more helpful . They are both a credit to the company would higher recommend.
Anjina and her team at Swiitch I cannot recommend highly enough. Selling and buying a home is stressful enough and can be fraught with unexpected problems. Anjina went above and beyond and we cannot thank her enough and is so lovely we would not hesitate in recommending her to anyone. Thanks so much Anjina we are so grateful for all you did to get us over the line.
Selling a property is never easy and fraught with problems. I felt on this occasion that all bases were covered and whenever a hiccup occurred the team at Swiitch were on top of it - taking the worry away. A first class service provided with a trusted point of contact in Adam Mayer - who kept on top of the process without fail. I would use Swiitch again without hesitation.
A big thank you to Beth Wheeler for dealing with the sale of my fathers property in such a smooth and timely manner. Selling property can be extremely stressful and Beth took out all of that to ensure a smooth and easy transaction was achieved. Greatly appreciated and would highly recommend to anyone wanting to sell their property.
We instructed Swiitch to manage our transaction and were allocated Haleema Raja as our Paralegal, supported by Lydie Collyer during the sale and purchase of our new home, we received a highly professional service, with outstanding communication. Haleema pulled out all the stops through a challenging sale, and actioned a super quick purchase, over delivering our expectations. High recommend Swiitch and the team.
Megan Leitch and Ross Bird were both exceptionally helpful throughout the whole process. As a first time buyer I had a lot of questions and uncertainty but they both went above and beyond in helping me feel comfortable, were patient in explaining each step and were helpful throughout. Thank you to them both for their support throughout this whole process.
The team has been great, always available on both email and telephone when needed and have extremely clear and helpful instructions. What could have been a frustrating and lengthy experience was seamless and positive. Thank you so much for all of your help and I wish you all the best in the future.
Hannah Howard and Tahirah Ahdi, who dealt with my house purchase, were very friendly and approachable, and dealt with everything professionally. They were happy to explain the process as we went along.
From start to finish Haleema at Swiitch was absolutely great. She kept me updated on every step and I cannot thank her enough for her hard work. I strongly recommend using Swiitch.
Professional and polite service! It was a pleasure doing business with them! Kelly and Julihana were very helpful and quick to respond to any question we had. I would definitely recommend them with kindness to anyone!
I used Swiitch for my sale and they were very efficient, with the completion earlier than the norm. Tahirah Ahdi was fabulous! What a star!! A real asset to the company! She kept me informed and answered all my questions promptly. She even stayed late on the day of exchange to wait for the buyers solicitors to respond. I cannot fault Swiitch, Tahirah, and Hannah Howard for their attention to detail. The funds went into my allocated account the same day and everything went very smoothly. Well done Swiitch and Gascoigne Halman!
Our sale and purchase was handled throughout by Oli Haley. At all times his advice and speed of response was exceptional, especially in the final lead up to exchange when we were out of the country. We appreciate his support and would not hesitate to use Swiitch in the future. Viv & Mike Hunsworth .
I used Switch for the sale of my house. Throughout the transaction they were totally professional, courteous and efficient. Adam Mayer handled all my dealings and was excellent. He kept me apprised and was always willing to answer any questions. I thoroughly recommend using Switch and will definitely use them again.
Holly has helped with the sale of my flat every step of the way. We have some expected delays due to external parties, but she was very informative and always answered any queries I had promptly and with patience. A very big thank you to Holly.
Honestly, I can’t fault Swiitch in any way. Adam Meyer our Solicitor has been absolutely incredible. His speedy and thorough communication plus his empathy in dealing with some rather dense queries that I asked, did not go unnoticed. Our sale from start to finish was done in 10 weeks (it would have been sooner had it not been for the other solicitors) and I put a lot of that down to Swiitch. I would not hesitate to use them again. Once again, Adam, 5* service!
Leanne Pearce was very professional and made the process of selling my house very easy. She kept me updated with how things were going and explained everything to me. I would highly recommend her and wouldn’t hesitate to use her in the future.
Lauren Elliott was a good case manager and kept me well informed throughout. There were no hiccups, everything went smoothly. It was easy to get hold of her by mail and by phone.

Dec 07,2023We had a great experience with Swiitch. We bought a repossessed house that initially looked very straightforward. It was soon apparent that there were complications with the deeds. I cannot praise Ross Bird, Nadia Agyei and the team highly enough for the help, assistance, and persistence to drive the resolution of this issue. Thoroughly professional and a High level of communication, and great accessibility, which we feel is massively important when dealing with legal issues. We would not consider using any other team when purchasing a property. 6 stars.
