The course is well presented and thorough. I was pleasantly surprised by the excellent communication from Smith Agency. I enrolled on a holiday and finished the course late on a Saturday, still all emails were responded to within a few minutes. Two hours later I had all the information required to book my test. Great service! Would definitely recommend.

My sister and I contacted Haywood Hunt to gather more information about possible elder fraud affecting their mother. This was a sensitive case as the suspect was a close friend of the family. The team did a great job gathering the information they needed to pursue the case further. They were also very aware of the sensitivity surrounding the situation and acted accordingly. They would highly recommend.

They had an issue with bed bugs in one of their rental properties, and despite getting pest control sprayings, the problem continued. A coworker recommended this company with a trained dog to sniff out bed bugs because they use them at their BnB. The dog and the handler gave me a demonstration before searching the house to explain how its done and eventually found a broken paper shredder and office chair which had several bugs hiding inside. They got rid of that furniture and sprayed again, and haven't had issues in a couple of months.
