17th Jan 2022 (4 years ago)Unfortunately, they couldn't find a buyer for my stunning flat themselves and had to enlist an outside estate agent, and had me stump up extra money to help compensate them. So they got it done after the end of the contact term, but it cost me £thousands more. This was after they earlier had asked me to agree to halt showings as demanded by an earlier (lower) offer that I reluctantly accepted. That buyer ended up walking weeks later, wasting precious time that could have been spent finding a real buyer. Estate agents are not your friend. No matter how charming they appear before their engagement contract is signed, once you sign it, they revert to their true mercenary selves, pressuring you to accept offers well below the very valuation they provided, because their only loyalty is to earning their fee. Don't get fooled. Wish I never used this JDW office.
14th Oct 2024 (1 year ago)I recently sold my house through Peter Ogilvie of Savilles Ipswich . Peter went above and beyond to help me with the process and any hiccups along the way , he would be there to help me. He’s a very pleasant, caring and efficient person and understands the industry very well. I would totally recommend him and Savilles Ipswich. Kim
28th Sep 2025 (7 mo. ago)I think the original estimate was much too high and has wasted time, I have reduced the price by 10K and still no interest
27th Apr 2024 (2 years ago)We are very happy with Will, he has grown into the job and we feel we can rely on him. And we know Becky is available in the background if Will is away.
30th Mar 2026 (5 weeks ago)I did not sell it at the end but the sevice was good.
17th Nov 2025 (24 weeks ago)We just recently purchased a house through Hamilton Smith, we dealt with Andrew and James. We could not fault the service, from start to finish they were brilliant. Both attentive and professional which made the whole process a lot smoother. Communication was very good, was never an issue to book viewings and not once did we feel rushed. Both very friendly and approachable. Would happily recommend. Thank you both. Chris
23rd Jul 2024 (1 year ago)Good professional and knowledgeable service from all concerned. Highly recommend.
10th Apr 2026 (25 days ago)We've had a fantastic experience so far with Abbotts Estate Agents. A big thank you to Darcy, Hayden, and Brady for their hard work and support throughout the process. They're proactive, confident and genuinely care about being about to meet your expectations and requirements. They've been quick to respond to and deal with any issues and always put 110% effort and energy into making sure you're a happy client. They managed to secure a buyer for my property within just a few weeks, which was incredibly impressive, especially given the current market. On top of that, they also helped us to successfully secure an offer on a new house through them, making the whole experience smooth and efficient. Communication has been excellent from start to finish. They kept all parties well-informed and are always quick to respond to any questions we have, which has, so far, made a potentially stressful process feel much more manageable! I’d highly recommend Abbotts to anyone looking to buy or sell. They're a professional, proactive, and genuinely helpful team.
15th Apr 2026 (20 days ago)We were very pleased with the Sales Team at Purbecks, found them efficient, professional with regular updates and chain chasing. Would thoroughly recommend them.
9th Apr 2026 (26 days ago)Elisha was very helpful and approachable. She promptly got answers to all the questions I raised and was a pleasure to deal with.
31st Mar 2026 (5 weeks ago)Michael at Lacy Scott & Knight Stowmarket was fantastic to deal with, super efficient and accommodating, the Lacy Scott brochure was a true representation of the property being sold, would highly recommend this the estate agent for selling and buying, a very professional smooth transaction.
3rd Apr 2026 (5 weeks ago)We bought our home through Sheena and couldn’t be happier. She was always quick to respond and really helpful at every stage.
27th Mar 2026 (6 weeks ago)The lady who did the viewing did not show us around the property, barely said anything and acted as if us being there asking questions was an inconvenience. We were so relieved that we were not successful in renting that house so we don't have to have contact with this agency again. Appalling.

10th Dec 2025 (21 weeks ago)All the ladies at Whatley Lane are lovely and super helpful. They also helped me out of a difficult situation so I’m very grateful to the team for their kindness and help with that. Thank you!
24th Feb 2026 (10 weeks ago)Had an amazing experience with them my entire time in England. I was renting from a beautiful property in red Lodge and I felt that I was always taking care of. Highly recommend going to them.- 27th Sep 2025 (7 mo. ago)I purchased a property through David Burr and had an outstanding experience. Lewis was friendly, professional, and consistently attentive to detail throughout the process. I really appreciated his honesty and clear communication, which made what can be a stressful time feel smooth and straightforward. The staff kept me informed at every stage, answered all my questions promptly, and went the extra mile to ensure everything was handled efficiently. Overall, it was a very positive experience, and I would highly recommend David Burr to anyone looking to buy or sell a property.
21st Nov 2025 (24 weeks ago)Duplicated invoices, shoddy management, accessing premises without due consent, damage to premises (through use of contractors), unable to construct basic emails, agreeing terms and then reneging on them and false accusations made to our landlord. I'm not sure if they still act as property managers or if they have given it up, but if they do and you're a prospective tenant, be very careful.
20th Jan 2026 (15 weeks ago)Nothing was too much trouble and didn’t have to wait long for anything to be repaired or changed.
15th Mar 2026 (7 weeks ago)Extremely helpful was a lovely experience, moved into a beautiful home. The team made sure it was stress free, even tho my wife is 9 months pregnant. I would highly recommend Tyler’s if you’re looking for that house upgrade!
17th Apr 2026 (18 days ago)Brilliant, Brilliant, Brilliant: BUCKS!!!!! Bucks, where do I start. The staff, their a so friendly, patient and conscientious. They go the extra mile to help. Lucy and the team are knowledgeable and are their for you, with every step of the way. Completely, faultless. A million times better, than it's competitors (within Stowmarket) Thanks for all of your advice and support throughout the process. Kindest Regards Jess and Richard Gonzalez
20th Jan 2026 (15 weeks ago)Nothing was too much trouble and didn’t have to wait long for anything to be repaired or changed.
27th Dec 2025 (18 weeks ago)Never sold the house, communication poor. Not sure why you think the house was sold through them, we left it the 8 weeks as promised and will be going elsewhere in Jan.
8th Apr 2026 (27 days ago)Excellent service! I mostly dealt with Leanne who responded very quickly, communicated clearly and had a friendly manner. Couldn’t recommend more highly.
5th May 2025 (11 mo. ago)The staff were very friendly, but the house was listed more than the initial verbal valuation which we were surprised about. Our property was perfect for a first time buyer but no viewings fitted that brief.
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.
