"Having had disappointing experiences with estate agents in the past, I have to admit I approached @home with a little cautious cynicism, but I'm very pleased to say that Jon & his team proved my concerns unfounded & provided us with an outstanding service from beginning to end. Jon proved himself to be thoroughly honest & trustworthy & went well above & beyond what I would expect from even a very good estate agent. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Jon & the @home team to anyone, & couldn't be more pleased with their service!"

The FC Bath Blues U10's achieved another success at the weekend, coming out group winners at the Mid Wilts Youth & Minor Football League 2015 Spring Trophy Event.
The Blues were pitted against two strong teams from Bradford on Avon and Trowbridge, playing each one twice.
Their first match started well, going up 1-0 through a well taken goal by Cameron H. Unfortunately, Bradford came back strongly to win the match 2-1. Undeterred, the Blues went in against Trowbridge knowing a result would keep them in it. Two goals from Elliott B and a clean sheet for keeper Sonny ensured the win. The team then followed that up with a 2-1 win against Bradford, a winning goal from Alfie K making the difference.
The Blues needed to win their last match to ensure the tournament win and the boys didn't disappoint. Resolute defending from Thomas M & Joe O and hard work from Harry F, George HG, Alfie K & Elliott B helped to make sure that Cameron's goal was enough to secure the win with keeper Sonny making some stunning saves to keep his second clean sheet of the event.
A big thank you to @Home Estate Agents (Bath) and IT company Eduserv for their charitable sponsorship of the team.

FC Bath U10 Blue Win Geoff Hurst Cup
The FC Bath Blues U10's achieved another success at the weekend, coming out group winners at the Mid Wilts Youth & Minor Football League 2015 Spring Trophy Event.
A beautiful sunny afternoon at Leafy Lane in Corsham played host to the final of the U10 Mid Wiltshire League's Geoff Hurst Trophy, pitting FC Bath Blues against Frome Town Robins, Sunday 22nd March.
It turned out to be a tight affair. At half time, the Blues were up 1-0 after a glorious team goal was finished by Cameron H at the far post after a wonderfully weighted cross from Thomas M. The Robins pulled level in the second half before Alfie K scored to take the Bath boys back into the lead. Shortly afterwards, the Robins again pulled level with a lovely strike from the edge of the area.
Bath had a few chances late on to win the match but extra time came calling. Bath continued to play the ball well and kept creating chances with their best effort being disallowed for seemingly not crossing the line. Unperturbed, the boys pushed forward time and again, completely dominating the final period of extra time but a way through could not be found. George HG came within inches of a match winner and Joe O pushed hard down the wing, trying to unlock the Robins defence but to no avail.
A penalty shoot-out was required to decide this close encounter. Thomas M, Jacob D, Cameron H, Elliott B and Alfie K all stepped up to take their spot kick and at the end of the necessary five penalties, it was all square at 4-4, both sides missing just one-a-piece. Up stepped Jack J for the first sudden death kick, which he coolly slotted home. After a Man of the Match performance in the quarter final, the Bath team were hopeful that keeper Ollie BB could pull off another great save...and he did! FC Bath clinched the cup 5-4 on penalties to claim their first competitive league trophy.
Alfie K was awarded Man of the Match by the organising committee before captain Ollie was presented the shield. Manager Paul Brake would proudly like to congratulate the whole team on their win, and also thank Mark Gough and Emil Kartselski for their support and efforts at training and during the matches. "The boys have been working hard on the training ground every week and fully deserve this trophy as a reward for their commitment and drive."
A big thank you to @Home Estate Agents (Bath) and IT company Eduserv for their charitable sponsorship of the team.

I would like to thank all the staff of @Home for providing an excellent service selling my much loved parents' home. It isn't easy to put a house on the market following a bereavement but Jon was always sensitive to my feelings. He kept constantly in touch so that I was well aware of all viewings and any comments made by potential buyers. The house sold quickly and support was given throughout all the usual solicitors queries. A lovely family have now taken up residence there so I feel content to know the house will again be a happy family home.
Many thanks, especially to Jon. I would happily recommend your company and use you again if ever we consider moving house.
