12th Mar 2026 (8 weeks ago)Tempo make the whole experience of property sales and lettings simple and swift. Claire's communications are great and she keeps you informed of the progress along the way, they offer an efficient service and good value for money. Highly recommend them.
25th May 2023 (2 years ago)Arrogance at the highest level! Was informed 24 hrs prior that my valuation had to be moved as a staff meeting was more important. Already booked the day off so fuming at the complete dis regard of this outfit. Completely unprofessional and extremely arrogant in my opinion!!!! Lesson learned!!!

2nd Nov 2023 (2 years ago)Told there would be no problem selling, buyers were waiting this was not the case.
16th Apr 2026 (19 days ago)Hunters were dealing with the property I was purchasing. Being the buyer I wasn't expecting much communication with Hunters throughout the process. However they made contact with me every step of the way to keep, they provided me updates from both solicitors, they advised me when documents were handed in. The level of communication ensured I was fully aware of where we were in the process, it really helped me feel involved and confident they were doing everything to keep the chain stress free as smooth. They were very friendly and professional. If I was to ever move again I would use Hunters as my agents.
19th Apr 2025 (1 year ago)Company was not proactive. They did not give feedback on one of the few viewings we had and at least two of the viewings were by people who had little intention of buying, not good enough
10th May 2025 (11 mo. ago)We have had good experiences as rated above.
13th Jan 2026 (16 weeks ago)Outstanding service from Mark, Abby & Michelle. I used this company 3 years ago and I wasn’t sure as that last valuer didn’t seem that interested and I was pleasantly surprised how much detail Mark went into. Thoroughly recommend, marketed it well and now sale agreed. I look forward to completing and moving into my new home with another one of your offices. Thank you so Dan
13th Dec 2025 (20 weeks ago)I have dealt with Marcus Aldersons estate agents both in rental and selling, what a team they have here. From communication to advice, they are above and beyond expectations, a thoroughly sound service indeed, nothing plastic here at all, the premiership of estate agency.
17th Apr 2026 (18 days ago)The Love Property Richmond team are lovely staff & will surely help you sort any tenancy related issues or property interests to the best of your interest. Moved into a new home with the proper help & guidance throughout the referencing process to the day I was handed the keys. Much thanks to the Love Property Tenancy Agents.
3rd Jul 2025 (10 mo. ago)From getting a valuation to selling and putting offer on property all went smoothly Early days yets hope all goes through with no problems
1st Oct 2022 (3 years ago)Friendly and thorough
4th May 2026 (1 day ago)From the start of engaging with Venture to the sale of the property, I was very impressed with the professionalism and communication throughout the process. It was great that everything went smoothly and all due to the fantastic staff.
21st Apr 2026 (14 days ago)What can I say about Your move Darlington, from booking a viewing at a property 3 weeks ago, to making an offer, then having Hannah come and valuate and take my property to market and selling just 1 day after going live, to Sharon and Allyson who has helped every step of the way too, it is all with the solicitors to be finalised but i know if i need them they are only a call away.- This agent doesn't have any reviews
22nd Apr 2026 (13 days ago)Anthony Jones Properties have sold two properties for us during the last 2 years and I honestly would not go anywhere else. Tony and his team are professional, courteous, efficient and friendly. They are excellent negotiators who look after the experience of both the seller and the buyer in order to achieve a secure sale as quickly as possible. Buying or selling property can be a pretty stressful experience, but Anthony Jones Properties understands this and does absolutely everything to make it a positive experience and ensure things go as smoothly as possible. I highly recommend them
25th Oct 2025 (6 mo. ago)The staff have been very helpful and have kept us up to date on every viewing
9th Oct 2025 (6 mo. ago)?????????? Review for Kyle Williams – JBrown Estate Agents I cannot recommend Kyle Williams from JBrown Estate Agents highly enough. After five long years of struggling to sell my flat, I had almost given up hope. It was a very complicated sale with many challenges, yet Kyle stepped in and did what no one else could. Within just a couple of weeks of taking professional photos and launching the property, he secured a strong offer and moved the process forward with impressive efficiency. Kyle is outstanding at what he does — not only professional and highly skilled, but also genuine, reliable, and honest. His communication was exceptional from day one. He was always available, kept me fully informed, and handled every obstacle with calm confidence and expertise. Most importantly, I felt I could truly trust him throughout the entire journey — and that is rare to find in this industry. He didn’t just sell my flat — he went above and beyond to make it happen, and I will always be grateful. If you’re looking for an estate agent who delivers results, works with integrity, and actually cares about his clients, Kyle is the one you want by your side.

15th Jul 2025 (9 mo. ago)Overpromised, Underperformed and Untrustworthy – My Costly Mistake with HSD I initially listed my property with PurpleBricks in March 2025 for £535,000. After limited viewings over a three-month period, I began exploring other options and submitted an enquiry to WeBuyAnyHouse. They quickly came back with an offer of £460,000—roughly 14% below asking—claiming it would allow for a quick sale. I immediately declined, as I was not in a rush and didn’t want to take such a significant loss. Shortly after, my details were apparently passed on to House Sales Direct (HSD), seemingly a sister company, without my explicit consent. HSD came across as professional and engaging at first. They promised a 98% success rate in selling properties within 28 days, citing a strong network of pre-approved buyers and investors who could complete within 6–8 weeks. They suggested a sale price spread of £510k–£535k, assuring me they would work to get me the best price possible. It sounded promising. Based on these assurances, I decided to proceed with HSD. I withdrew my PurpleBricks listing—costing me £300—with the understanding that HSD’s investor network would accelerate the sale. But things quickly began to unravel. Despite supposedly having investors lined up, HSD said they needed to relist my property on Rightmove first. When I questioned why investors couldn’t simply view the home, the response was vague. It took nearly two weeks for them to relist, and the new asking price was £525,000. A full week passed without any communication. Then came a call recommending the price be dropped to £499,000. I was told this was “just a marketing tactic,” and that they still aimed to get me a sale within the original £510k–£535k range. But I struggled to understand how listing a property nearly £40,000 lower would achieve that. I asked again about the investors. They finally admitted the only offer received was the same £460k I'd declined weeks earlier through WeBuyAnyHouse. This was when the red flags really began to show. Why wasn’t I told this upfront? Why present an optimistic price range if their investor offer was fixed at £460k from the beginning? Why was I encouraged to pull the property from PurpleBricks if they intended to rely on the open market anyway? I could have just reduced the price there and avoided unnecessary costs and delays. Doing more research online, I found stories from others with eerily similar experiences. It appeared HSD’s real model was to attract sellers with high expectations and then drop the price, relying on open-market tactics to force a quick sale. Despite claiming not to charge commission, they would never clearly explain how they made their money. It seems they may be negotiating higher prices with buyers while offering sellers less—profiting off the gap. No transparency, no trust. Meanwhile, they knew I was paying a high mortgage on an empty property. It became clear they were hoping I’d become desperate enough to accept the same low £460k offer I had already rejected twice. In the four weeks my property was listed with them, only four viewings were arranged. Two were no-shows. Of the remaining two, one viewer stayed for just five minutes—asked no questions and didn’t even view all the rooms. It felt performative, not serious. As expected, neither viewer submitted an offer, despite supposedly being “pre-qualified and keen.” Eventually, I told HSD I wanted to withdraw the property. That’s when I was informed—shockingly—that I had unknowingly signed up for a 52-week contract, and I’d need to pay £1,500 to exit, or £999 if paid within 7 days. I wrote to them, acknowledged that they had done some work, and offered a reasonable £699 exit fee, explaining I needed to rent the home out due to financial strain. They refused and insisted on full payment. I paid the £999 immediately—but it still took a full week and several chasers before they finally removed the property from Rightmove. By the end of the ordeal, it was clear I was no longer a priority for them. In summary: Do I regret choosing HSD? Absolutely. Would I recommend them to someone looking for a fair, transparent, and professional house sale experience? No. If your only goal is to sell quickly and you don’t care about value, they might work for you. But if you want to sell your home at a decent price with a partner you can trust, I strongly advise staying away from HSD.
1st Apr 2026 (5 weeks ago)Moov’d recently sold our apartment for us and we couldn’t believe how easy and stress free the whole process was. This was because from the initial inquiry to the final phone call informing us that the sale money was heading to our bank account, everything was handled by Grant and his team. Initially Grant visited us to take photos of the apartment, we agreed a sale price, he then produced the description of our apartment for the advertisement, arranged viewings and gave us feedback from prospective buyers and then when the sale was agreed we filled in a few forms and the money was in our bank! It was a pleasure to work with Grant and his team and we would highly recommend Moov’d to anyone wanting to sell their property. Thanks to all.
