From our local customers…

“We have used Michael Graham to purchase our new home and have been dealing with Hannah Rogers, who has been amazing, dealing with all of our queries efficiently and professionally and ensuring that the transaction was smooth from start to finish. We would definitely recommend this agency for either purchasing or selling as they worked very hard to make the whole process seamless!”

Rob Jeffs

“We appointed Michael Graham Estate Agents for the sale of our late mother’s home in Sharnbrook. Harry was our single point of contact throughout the process, providing timely updates on interest viewings and successfully negotiating a sale. Thereafter he adeptly navigated the conveyancing process, managed buyer, seller and conveyancing firms, provided regular updates and ensured that the sale was completed on the required date. I would highly recommend both Michael Graham Estate Agents and Harry in particular!”

Andrew Fletcher

“We recently bought our new home through Michael Graham Estate Agents and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From start to finish, Harry was fantastic — approachable, diligent, supportive and thoroughly professional throughout the entire process. He kept us well informed, was always quick to respond, and genuinely went the extra mile to make sure everything ran smoothly. We’re truly grateful for his help and wouldn’t hesitate to use Michael Graham again in the future. Highly recommended!”
