"Sophie's hard work, dedication and guidance was amazing."

From the bottom of my heart: I can't begin to thank Sophie and her staff enough for everything. Sophie's hard work, dedication and guidance was amazing. Her genuine friendship helped me stay strong along the way. Sophie always seems to go that extra mile! The staff was extremely pleasant, helpful and knowledgeable which put me at ease. This turned out to be a rewarding and excellent life changing experience for me. Thank you.

"I have always been happy with the service"

Working in real estate it’s important to me that my clients get the attention they deserve. I’ve been referring them to Ted in Sophie Hills’ office, and have always been happy with the service we receive.

"Thanks Hills Nolan for the excellent service they have provided me"

I would like to thank Hills Nolan for the excellent service they have provided me on multiple occasions. Your real estate clerk, Ted Groves, assisted me on two sales, one purchase and two transfers and a refinancing upon the breakdown of my marriage. Needless to say, any transaction comes with some stress. and the transfers and refinancing were especially stressful given the circumstances. Ted’s thorough and timely work was instrumental in helping me to manage both the real estate transactions and the stress associated with them. Ted was clear in what documents he required of me, followed up regularly, and answered any questions I had without delay. His manner was both professional and friendly. I would have no other firm act for me in the future and strongly recommend them.
