Pembroke Gardens- Probate Management

Client Testimonial

‘Chambré was incredibly helpful at a very stressful time for myself and my brother after our mother died.  I live in Scotland and my brother has a very demanding job so it was a huge relief to be able to leave everything in Chambré’s capable hands.  As well as that, everyone we had to deal with there  was charming and efficient.’

Overview

Challenge

The task involved not just overseeing the property but also preparing it for sale, which included various maintenance and presentation tasks, all to be handled with sensitivity and efficiency during a time of bereavement for the family.
