Online viewings
Most of our locations are able to conduct an 'online viewing' - whether that be through a video call, a pre-recorded video or something similar (via platforms such as WhatsApp, FaceTime, Skype, Facebook Messenger, etc). If the property is available for viewings and you'd like to view the property virtually, ask the phone operator if the Manager of the location can arrange to do so with you. The viewing would need to be arranged at a suitable time on a suitable platform for both you and the Local Manager - our phone call operators may need to pass your details onto the Local Manager to do so.
