A good experience with Orchard and Shipman.
Hannah was great to deal with, good communication, explained everything to me and always friendly and professional.

O&S have been very professional, friendly and approachable from the begining. The representatives that i have met were also friendly and comforting which i would say exceed my expectations during such uncertain circumstances. I think O&S set a good standard that all agents should aspire to.
Regards, Bill
