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.

Milton Keynes Shared Ownership

“Dear Sandie, Thank You ever so much for helping us buy our first home…It’s been a real journey & we really appreciate all you’ve done for us”

Kirsty, Paul, Ellis & Layla-May

“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.”

“I just wanted to take a minute to share some feedback about Claudia in regards to my recent house sale. I thought Claudia was excellent and I am really pleased with how she handled my sale. She constantly kept me informed with the whole process and answered all of my questions. She is an asset to First Step.”
