Ostrich enabled us to understand what we could get from the market without the intense pressure of going via an estate agent.

What our customers
are saying

We had a great experience selling our home with Ostrich. From the very first conversation, they were professional, approachable and reliable. Throughout the process, there was always someone available to speak to, including during evenings and weekends, which really helped us feel supported and in control at key moments. One of the things that really stood out to us was the way Ostrich communicated. Everything was explained clearly and in plain language, without the jargon or salesy tone that you sometimes get with property professionals. It made us feel comfortable asking questions, and we always got honest, thoughtful answers. We never felt pushed or rushed, just guided. Chené, in particular, was a real asset. She was consistently cheerful, helpful and clear in her communication. She brought a positive energy to every call and email, and she struck just the right balance between friendly and professional. Even when unexpected issues came up, she handled them quickly and calmly, which made a big difference in keeping stress levels low. It’s rare to deal with someone who is so well organised and also genuinely nice to work with. We also really appreciated that Ostrich didn’t treat us like just another transaction. They took the time to understand our situation and were always available to talk things through. It felt like we had a real partner in the process, not just an agent ticking boxes. That human touch gave us a lot of reassurance along the way. Overall, Ostrich offered a service that was efficient, friendly and very easy to work with. The whole team was helpful, and we always felt that our sale was in safe hands. We'd absolutely recommend them to anyone looking to sell their home.
