We sold our house in Ivybridge with Portia and Danielle, and we were very pleased with them. They gave a really personal service and made a greater effort than the big chain agents. The description they came up with for our house was not full of the usual tired old clichés, but instead gave a really good description of the features of the house, both the obvious and the not-so-obvious. We have moved house many times, and used both the large nationwide chains and the no-frills online-only firms, and if we move again, we will go with Modern Move. The extra effort they put in makes them well worth it.

I first viewed the house at the end of February 2020. Visited again two days later and agreed to buy. Although it was a 'no chain cash sale', which was good, by the time lockdown had begun, it was a worry as to whether the sale could still go ahead. Yes, they said, no problem, we can do it. And they did. Modern Move were brilliant, quick response to queries and replies which certainly reduced the stress factor. Contracts were exchanged a short while later, and with an excellent Totnes solicitor, we completed, and 7 weeks later I moved in! Thank you, Modern Move!

Modern Move were the new girls in town when we let them know in December that "in the Spring" our house would be for sale. We were impressed by their listening ability and enthusiasm. As it happened, they had indeed listened carefully both to us and then later to the potential buyer who strolled into the office one day in February. Within days, the house was sold, even before active online listing could be developed. Their professionalism and availability were useful both to us and our buyer, who was at times uncertain about the process. As a seller, one sometimes loses sight of the work involved in nurturing the buyers. All went smoothly and quickly and 7 weeks later the deed was done.

Modern Move are a fantastic, friendly and highly professional estate agent. We had a difficult sale in a chain - and if it had not been for their experience, professionalism and intelligence in dealing with the various parties - I don’t think the sale would have gone through in time. It also made a huge difference to us that they were available and always returned our calls and enquiry’s promptly. Moving house can be a stressful time and having a good estate agent can make the world of difference.

Modern Move cannot be recommended highly enough - from our initial meeting and valuation right through to completion (and even the bit beyond!). All house sales and purchases have a few complications along the way and I honestly believe that the professionalism and speedy communication shown by Portia and Danielle at every stage of the process kept both our sale and sanity on track. Thank you both so much!

Selling a unique or older property is sometimes difficult! After 2 years on the market, 2 estate agents and almost 80 viewings (everyone said it was a wonderful property), my house has finally sold! Third time lucky with Modern Move! The team were very professional and honest in their approach to prospective buyers and I was very happy with the service I received! Will happily recommend them to my family and friends.

Mrs M




Just wanted to say thank you so much for the hard work and professional attitude to selling our house. Your enthusiasm for your work and the love of our property, I am sure, rubbed off on potential purchasers and resulted in a quick offer achieving a good price for our house. The sale was not without its complications but your attention, calmness and ‘out of hours’ availability ensured that finally we completed on our property with both us and the purchasers very happy indeed.

Mr & Mrs S




I really can’t recommend this company highly enough, completely different level of competence and professionalism to every other agent we had dealings with while buying and selling, from the first meeting to the last they inspired total trust and confidence that made dealing with them a real pleasure. Well done Modern Move a genuine breath of fresh air in your industry, I wish you and you deserve every possible success and will look forward to dealing with you again in the future.

Mr W




Modern Move are very professional and are able to tune into exactly what is needed and when it’s needed. Nothing was too much trouble and I feel they go the extra mile to offer an excellent service to both the vendor and the purchaser. I’d highly recommend using Modern Move.

Mrs H




I have been extremely happy with the service from Modern Move from the initial meeting until the completion. They are great for those not wanting to use standard high street estate agents or internet only estate agents. They worked evenings and weekends ensuring they could maximise potential viewings and are an example of how agents should work instead of the usual 9-5 5.5 days a week. I would definitely use them again and have recommended them to neighbours who are also looking to sell their properties.

Mrs W




We found the service from modern move to be exceptional, any queries or concerns were dealt with straight away and nothing was too much trouble. We would highly recommend them, our purchase of our second home was made much easier by them being available more hours of the day than most other estate agents as well as responding to our emails almost straight away. This is great customer service. Big thank you.
