REMOVALS

We can recommend professional removal and storage companies. Storage companies can prove really useful should you wish to de-clutter to maximise space in your property. You can securely store your bulky items for one day to 1 year! These professionals can come and have a look and provide a competitive quote.

PROPERTY CONTRACTORS REPAIR TEAM

First Step use local professional property repair specialists. Sometimes people don’t have time to do odd job repairs in and out of the house. Our contractors can quote for jobs large or small to help get your property onto the market without delay or help rectify survey issues such as slipped roof tiles.

First Step have specialist independent in-house Financial Advisors who can help secure the best mortgage deal for you. Please feel to arrange to come to our office and discuss your requirements in our confidential offices.

Milton Keynes Shared Ownership

“I recently had the pleasure of dealing with First Step Estate Agents whilst purchasing my first shared ownership home. From the very first point of enquiry their helpfulness and professionalism was faultless. It was quite a daunting time for me as a single parent and I honestly could not have hoped for the process to have gone any smoother. Sandie in particular looked after us and I never had any doubt we were in the most capable of hands. I would have no hesitation in recommending Sandie and her team to anyone that is looking for help buying or selling based on my experience. I will forever be grateful to her for helping turn my dream into a reality. Thank you so much First Step! My dad is looking to sell his property soon and I will definitely be pointing him in your direction.”
