    At David James, we can offer independent mortgage advice with a free mortgage consultation through our partners at Your Mortgage Shop. They have access to the whole of the mortgage market and are not tied to an individual bank or building society. The benefit of this is that they can scour the entire market to search for the best mortgage deal for your circumstances.

    Their team of experienced and dedicated mortgage advisors will work with you through the whole process and deal with any queries that you may have or any problems that may arise. Even if you have already received advice from a bank or building society, they can provide a comparison on any deal that may have been offer to you. This way they will either provide peace of mind that you have secured the right deal or better still demonstrate a more competitive product for your circumstances.

    Initial mortgage advice is free of charge. Should you choose to apply for a mortgage with Your Mortgage Shop we will charge an application fee of £249.00. Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.

    • Seller Testimonial

      ...excellent, stress free and easy.
      David James were recommended to me by a friend and they have been excellent so far. They have provided great customer service and Justine has been a really lovely person, helping us along every step of the way. Everything has been pretty stress free and easy, and we are happy with the service provided. We would definitely use them again. 

      Mr Lynch (December 2021)
    • Seller Testimonial

      Highly professional from start to finish!
      Highly Professional set up from start to finish! Vicky was a class above and managed under extremely difficult conditions to get the sale of our house through. We lost count of how many emails that were exchanged, and calls made but at every point we were kept informed of the process. Again, we cannot highly enough the of the whole office and especially Vicky who was star from start to finish!

        Mr Eaton (December 2021)
    • Seller Testimonial

      ..went above and beyond what was  expected
      We used David James to sell our house and they were amazing. The whole team is friendly and helpful, and Justine was constantly one step ahead and went above and way beyond what was expected of her. If it wasn't for her, we may not now be in our lovely new home!

        Ms Berthelot (November 2021)
    • Seller Testimonial

      ...professional responses and clear guidance
      We have been delighted with all aspects of the sale of our house, in from initial visit for valuation to completion. Throughout the whole process whoever we spoke to, even if they weren't directly handling our sale, made us feel confident we were a priority and any questions were answered. Totally professional responses and clear guidance at all times, meant the process progressed rapidly & calmly. Quality photographs & superb online viewing video we are sure aided an immediate interest and sale. If we ever move again, we'd go straight to David James, thank you all! 

      Ms Derrick (April 2021)
    • Seller Testimonial

      Customer service we received was excellent...
      We chose David James based on their website and the fact they were selling a lot of houses in our area. From start to finish, we cant fault the service we received. From initial valuation to final completion we were very impressed. The quality of our listing especially the video in the listing was thorough and comprehensive & the customer service we received was excellent throughout. We had a challenging sale but David James handled it with professionalism and efficiency. We would like to single out Vicky for praise who gave over and above throughout a very difficult sale. She was superb and without her we don't think we could have got our sale "over the line". A big thanks to all the David James team, we would heartily recommend them.

      Mrs Crockford (April 2021)
    • Seller Testimonial

      I would highly recommend...
      This company dealt with the sale of our late Mother's property during these uncertain times, they went out of their way to get things sorted in a professional manner & kept me in the loop the whole way. I would highly recommend using David James, cant thank them enough!

      Mrs Gabbitas (October 2020)
    • Seller Testimonial

      Friendly staff
      Fabulous service. Friendly staff. They helped me through the sale of my house, even when I got it wrong at my end. Highly recommended.

      Mr Ellis (October 2019)
    • Seller Testimonial

      Good communication throughout
      Very professional and efficient. Good communication throughout the sale. This is the second time I have sold through David James Estate Agents.

      Mrs Frudd (June 2019)
    • Seller Testimonial

      ...helpful and professional.
      From my first meeting with David and then all subsequent dealings with Lucy in the sale of my property, I would just like to say how helpful and professional they were. Lucy made a very stressful time much easier, always at the end of the phone willing to answer questions. I would certainly have no hesitation in recommending David James, in fact two family members have also now used David James to sell their properties too. Again a great big thank you to the Lucy and the team.

      Mrs Turner (February 2019)
    • Seller Testimonial

      They have been diligent and efficient!
      Having moved overseas to work, I put my flat in the care of David James when renting it out. They have been diligent and efficient in managing it, promptly dealing with any problems that arose and communicating with me, as well as making regular inspections and dealing with tenants, organising minor repairs, refurbishments and changeovers when necessary. When the time came to part with the property they attracted several viewings and offers remarkably quickly and with equal efficiency. I have always found them to be easy to deal with; friendly and professional and recommend them to potential buyers, sellers and absentee owners looking for managing agents alike. 

      Mr Seaman (December 2018)
    • Seller Testimonial

      very knowledgeable
      The initial meeting with David Radford was very professional and he explained that the price had to be realistic. He knew the market for this area so well and I felt confident that we would have a sale soon.
      They were very efficient in putting the house on the market and the board went up very quickly. We had 35 viewings and on every occasion I had a follow up call from either Michelle, Lucy or Justine. 
      All 3 members of staff were very knowledgeable and were also able to gauge whether the viewing would proceed to an offer. 
      Michelle in the office did most of the ground work and excelled in keeping in touch with the viewers and us. 
      In the later stages she regularly contacted the other agents in the chain and also spoke to the buyers' solicitors in the chain. 
      We knew exactly where we were and any delays were caused by the other buyers in the chain. I also liked the sales boards of David James as they are very distinctive and change from blue to red when the property is sold. 
      Selling a house is a huge ordeal and David James made it easy. They even began to have a rapport with our buyers who now say that they would definitely recommend David James to any of their friends.

      Mrs Harding (September 2018)
    • Seller Testimonial

      ...really helpful when buying our first house.
      Michelle was really helpful when buying our first house. As first time buyer being unsure of the process, we ended up emailing and calling Michelle a fair few times as there were a few hiccups in the process. I honestly think that without Michelle talking to everyone involved, we would have not have got the keys before Christmas. Michelle even managed to get a gas safety inspection done in a day just before completion even though our solicitor had been asking the sellers solicitor for one for months.

      Miss Kime (June 2018)
    • Seller Testimonial

      always polite, helpful and very professional
      I am more than happy to recommend David James to anyone I know. I had not moved for 23 years and felt quite daunted about the prospect of selling my house. Fortunately all the staff that I had contact with at David James made the event run smoothly, they kept me well informed, explained all I needed to know and were always polite, helpful and very professional. If I choose to move again I would happily use their services.

      Mrs Rourke (September 2017)
    • Seller Testimonial

      professional and a friendly manner at all times
      I would like to thank the team of David James in Arnold. From the first moment that David Radford contacted me following my interest, I have had full confidence in David James the Estate Agents. I was treated in a professional and a friendly manner at all times. I have been kept informed throughout the process from the advertising to the sale of my bungalow. I was in contact with Rosemary and Lucy in the Arnold office and Luke in lettings. They were always willing to answer any questions I may have and respectfully contacted me back if they were not free to take my call. Thank you again, Regards, Neelum

      Miss Khorana (September 2017)
    • Seller Testimonial

      always so cheerful and helpful
      Thank you so much for all of your help during our selling (buying) process. You were always so cheerful and helpful at the end of the phone especially at the times I really didn't have a clue about things. It's been less stressful knowing you were there to help!So many many thanks

      Mr and Mrs Bush (July 2017)
    • Seller Testimonial

      their advice was invaluable. A great team
      Thank you to all the team at the Mapperley office for arranging the smooth selling of our house along with all the connected side issues. Thank you to David for all the initial advice and particularly to Michelle who nursed us through the process. We had not moved house for nearly 50 years and their advice was invaluable. A great team

      Mr and Mrs White (June 2017)
    • Seller Testimonial

      nothing felt like too much trouble
      I just wanted to say a huge thank you to the team at the Carlton office. They made the sale of our Carlton property seem like a breeze. Amazing photo's, lots of viewings, a quick sale and most importantly nothing felt like too much trouble, they were always available on the phone or at the end of an email.

      Ms Brittain (February 2017)
    • Seller Testimonial

      Thank you, David James, for a job well done.
      We would like to thank all the ladies who pleasantly and happily do their bit as staff at David James. Thank you for all your understanding and making sure that the sale of our home went through as smoothly as possible. We would like to thank David for coming out and seeing our house and would strongly recommend anyone to use your agency as they would not be dissapointed!

      Mr and Mrs Heron (January 2017)
    • Seller Testimonial

      Thank you for your professionalism...
      Just want to say a massive thank you for your professionalism in selling our property in very challenging times, particularly Lorraine who kept us informed when solicitors needed chasing up. Will definitely recommend your services.

      Ms Caudell (November 2016)
    • Seller Testimonial

      ...Nothing but delighted with David James
      I'm pleased to say I have been nothing but delighted with David James. Michelle worked with me over a painfully protracted period (in which an initial buyer pulled out at the last moment) to re-sell the property really quickly and at a good price. The whole process and costs were completely transparent and I was right to trust her to look after it, even though I live a long way from the property itself. She seemed to actually 'care' too, which counts for a lot in that game! Very happy.

      Mr Limb (November 2016)
    • Seller Testimonial

      would not hesitate to recommend you!
      Dear JamesI wanted to thank you for the excellent service you provided during the sale of my mum's house. As you know, it has sometimes been difficult due to the circumstances behind the sale and I really appreciated your kind understanding. Special thanks go to Michelle who was brilliant throughout! I would not hesitate to recommend you!

      Mrs Lampon (February 2016)
    • Seller Testimonial

      Really impressed by the service you offered
      We were really impressed by the service you offered in selling our property and securing our new home. Your staff did an outstanding job through to the very end.

       Mr & Mrs Lowry (December 2015)
    • Seller Testimonial

      We'll be using David James for our next move!
      Thanks to everyone at David James and Michelle for fantastic service with a complicated sale/purchase. We'll be using David James for our next move!

      Mr & Mrs Horne (November 2015)
    • Seller Testimonial

      All the extra help won't be forgotten!
      We just wanted to say a massive thank you for all your help with selling our house and the eventual purchase! All the extra help won't be forgotten!

      Mr Hutchinson & Miss Geeves (October 2015)
    • Seller Testimonial

      ...efficient, friendly and extremely helpful.
      A huge thank you to everyone at the Arnold office especially Rosemary who made the recent sale of my of my bungalow as painless as it could be especially as the first offer fell through. They soon had a new buyer in a very short time. Every person we dealt with was efficient, friendly and extremely helpful.

      Mr Sissins (March 2015)

    Testimonials from Buyers

    • Buyer Testimonial

      ...professional, efficient, and friendly...
      From the day we viewed our new home to the day we moved in, Justine at David James Mapperley was professional, efficient, and friendly throughout the process. She replied to all our enquiries immediately, even the trivial ones, and provided a valuable link between ourselves and the vendor. We thank Justine and her colleagues for all the work they've done helping us buy our new home. 

      Ms Shaw  (November 2021)
    • Buyer Testimonial

      They were very responsive...
      We bought our property through David James, they were very responsive and at the end were good at keeping us updated.

      Miss Davies (March 2021)



    • Buyer Testimonial

      They are extremely professional...
      I have had a great experience buying my first property with David janes Mapperley and also with them managing my rental property. They are extremely professional and offer a great service that is value for money. Any call outs where I have needed work doing they have provided they're own contractors and the prices and service from this is second to non. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a company to manage their properties.

      Mr Addison (November 2020)
    • Buyer Testimonial

      I will always use David James Estate Agents
      In all walks of life there are people that excel. Whether you want to buy,sell or let a property, you would be foolish not to contact David James Estate Agents. In my opinion Michelle is like the Usain Bolt of the property world. Her knowledge of the property market is unrivaled and her professionalism is second to none.When I was looking at properties within the Mapperley region, I was extremely impressed by the service I received. Whatever my intentions, I will always use David James Estate Agents 

      Mr Brown (March 2017)
    • Buyer Testimonial

      The communication from David James was exceptional
      Because of our sale, it took us 9 months to move into this fabulous property. From start to finish, the communication from David James was exceptional. Nothing was any trouble for the staff in the office including the viewers and valuers. Always polite, professional and calm, even when I might have been a bit flustered! Thank you for sticking with us and we would definitely recommend your services to others.

      Mr Hudson (December 2016)
    • Buyer Testimonial

      I would absolutely recommend David James to anyone
      Michelle is AMAZING! I'm not quite sure what else to say, she is professional, supportive, practical and really knows her stuff. She was able to provide me with sound advice and listened to me moan day after day. All of the girls in the office have been great and Cherie was always lovely when we went to view. I would absolutely recommend David James to anyone considering a move. They went out of their way to help me secure the house of my dreams and I can't thank them (especially Michelle) enough!

      Ms Chada (October 2016)
    • Buyer Testimonial

      We would certainly recommend David James
      Just wanted to send a short message to say thank you to Lucy for your help with our purchase. We were very happy to get everything completed in time and this was helped hugely by your help at dealing with both sets of solicitors and the vendor. We would certainly recommend David James as an estate agent!

      Mr Jackson (April 2016)
