A completely professional, kind and generous Agent!

I recently had the pleasure of working with William as my estate agent, and I can't recommend him highly enough! From our very first interaction, it was clear that he is not only knowledgeable but also genuinely cares about his clients. William was incredibly responsive throughout the entire process. No matter what time of day I reached out with a question or concern, he was quick to reply and always provided detailed, thoughtful answers. This level of communication made what could have been a stressful experience much more manageable. What impressed me even more was William's willingness to go above and beyond. He took the time to listen to my needs and preferences, ensuring I felt supported every step of the way. Whether it was providing valuable insights about the local market or helping me navigate the paperwork, William's assistance was invaluable. If you're looking for an estate agent who is friendly, dedicated, and truly invested in your success, look no further than William. He made my experience seamless and enjoyable, and I’m so grateful for all his hard work. Thank you, William!

We were becoming increasingly frustrated with the service provided by a well-known high-end property agent when Will came to our door and delivered his pitch. A couple of weeks later, we rang him and organised a meeting. He soon persuaded us to switch to By Design Bristol, and we haven't looked back. Having dealt with a variety of agents over the last few years, I can hands-down say that Will is in a different league. His personalised service, daily clear communication, transparency and professionalism are astounding. We had one open weekend whilst we were away, which produced multiple offers on our much-loved home, and we accepted one over the asking price. He found us the buyer we needed quickly and seamlessly. If you're considering going with Will, I can honestly say you won't regret it. Don't waste another day. Just do it.

The best buying and selling experience I’ve ever had. The service was faultless—meticulous attention to detail and completely tailored to my needs. Every aspect of both the sale and purchase was handled with care and precision. If you’re tired of the old-school estate agency approach—just opening doors and hoping for the best—By Design offers a truly bespoke alternative. Highly recommended.

Will helped sell our previous home when he was at another company, so when he launched By Design, we didn’t hesitate to trust him with our off-market search for a new family home. He exceeded all expectations—discreet, thoughtful, and completely in tune with what we were looking for. We’ve just exchanged on our dream home in the perfect location—something we’d never have found without him. I’d never used a buying agent before, but it was worth every penny. I highly recommend Will and By Design without hesitation.

Could not recommend William enough! He sold my 3 bedroom terrace in Southville and the whole experience was seamless. Having dealt with many estate agents over the years, I can say without hesitation that William is in a league of his own. His communication is flawless, his attention to detail is exceptional, and the quality of marketing he delivers is truly second to none. Every aspect of the process was handled with professionalism, care, and a level of dedication that is rare to find in the industry. If you're looking to sell or buy in the Bristol area, I simply cannot recommend William and By Design highly enough.

I have had the pleasure of working with Will for over a decade, and I can say with complete confidence that I would not want to entrust my property to anyone else. He is consistently proactive, highly responsive, and exceptionally well-informed about all relevant regulations and updates. Most importantly, he provides an invaluable level of support and peace of mind. Living outside the UK, it is reassuring to know that every aspect of my property is in such capable hands.

Will is a fantastic networker, a great people person who really takes the time to understand his clients and their needs. He’s very driven & determined and no doubt WILL pull all the stops out to exceed your expectations.
