As a tenant of a property being sold by Darryl our experience of his dealing with it was that he was professional, compassionate and kept us informed every step of the way.

We've never received that level of service with any estate agent, outstanding. Very responsive, professional and go the extra mile for the buyer as well as the seller, rare.

Completely shocked by how rude this agent was on the phone. I know in this covid world we need to be kind to everyone as we don't know what people are going through, but this phone call took my to the limit. I had to get off the phone.

We bought through Druce and Partners back in 2005 and decided to sell through them in 2020. Whilst we loved our house it was difficult to sell but Darryl worked so hard throughout. We always knew what was going on and Darryl continued to market until we sold. Will always be grateful for his tireless efforts. Thanks you.

Darryl and his team have done a fantastic job selling my property - they have been wonderful guiding the sale through to completion; a tricky business given that it was a chain of 8 properties with a few nerve-wracking moments along the way. They were also kind enough to give me invaluable advice for my purchase. I can't recommend them highly enough.

We bought through Druce and thought they provided a good, clear service. On our first viewing, Paul asked good questions to prompt what we were after, and that allowed him to offer some really useful advice that ended up resulting in us buying the house. Would recommend.

Excellent service!! We purchased and sold our property through Druce & Partners within two months. Darryl Druce is, in my view, one of the best negotiators, and together with his team, Paul Barker and Nathan Ascroft provided great assistance throughout the whole process. Thank you! Good to see that you're currently marketing (and sold) a few properties on our street! All the best.

I recently sold my family home of 10 years in St Albans after separating from my wife. Paul Barker marketed the house and supported both myself and my wife through the process. I have had experience working with several estate agents both in the UK and abroad. Paul provided constant support and combined technical excellence with a genuine, human touch. I would recommend him to anyone buying or selling a home in or around St Albans.
