14th Sep 2026 (10 days ago)Honestly, I cannot praise this company enough! From start to finish, the whole team has been amazing, but a special thank you has to go to Sam, who has been absolutely incredible throughout the entire process of helping me and my partner finding a property.<br>Sam has been so understanding of our circumstances and has always been willing, patient and genuinely happy to help whenever we needed her. She has gone above and beyond to support us, and we honestly cannot thank her enough for helping us find the perfect home for our family.<br>We would also like to say a huge thank you to Craig and Karen, who have both been so helpful with viewings and throughout the process.<br>The whole experience has been made so much easier thanks to such a lovely and supportive team. Sam is a real asset to John Alexander, and we are incredibly grateful for everything she has done for us.<br>We would highly recommend John Alexander to anyone who is looking to find a property.

18th Sep 2026 (6 days ago)I have just sold a property and found how smoothly the whole proceed went, this was thanks to Gemma Williams, who kept me<br>informed as the sale progress , as she chased the many questions that had a risen,and found the answers..
22nd May 2025 (1 year ago)Chris and Jo from Fenn Wright are both very experienced and professional and certainly know their stuff. They are both very friendly and approachable and were on hand to guide as and when was necessary. I would use them again to sell my house.
16th Sep 2026 (8 days ago)I just wanted to take a moment to share some feedback following our viewing today. We travelled quite a long way with our family to come and see the property, and we were met by the lovely Diane Keightley, who made the whole experience so welcoming.<br><br>Diane was absolutely wonderful. Her warmth, professionalism and lovely demeanour really stood out to us. She took the time to walk us through the property, explain everything clearly and give us a great overview of the house. We really appreciated how friendly and approachable she was throughout.<br><br>We genuinely fell in love with the property and have now expressed our offer. We are really hoping that everything goes well and that we are fortunate enough to have our offer accepted, as we can genuinely see ourselves making this house our home.<br><br>I also wanted to make sure Diane received the recognition she deserves, as her warmth and the way she welcomed us and our family made such a lovely impression.<br><br>Thank you again, and fingers crossed for the next steps! ??????????????????<br><br>Gabriella x- 22nd Jun 2026 (13 weeks ago)The people from Fenn Wright were professional but friendly and very supportive with good advice throughout the process of selling my house.

11th Aug 2026 (6 weeks ago)At the start, our experience with Saxons was fine. They communicated well with us and regularly asked us for documents and information, which we provided. However, since paying the holding fee, the communication has completely changed. Over the last month, we have repeatedly tried contacting them by email and phone with normal questions, but have been ignored. I have emailed over five times and still haven’t received a response. The person we were originally dealing with is also no longer available on WhatsApp, so we have been left unsure who we can actually contact. We have all signed our rental contracts, yet our portal still says, “We cannot take payment until all parties have signed the rental contract.” We have contacted Saxons about this and still haven’t received a response or explanation. The only reason this isn’t a 1-star review is because communication was good at the beginning. Unfortunately, recently it feels like they want nothing to do with us, which is extremely frustrating and disappointing
25th Jul 2026 (9 weeks ago)Professional Service. Good communication so far...
11th Aug 2026 (6 weeks ago)We recently purchased our first home using William H Brown, particular thanks to Sam and his colleagues who were professional, efficient, friendly and provided clear updates when communicating to make the process smoother. Would recommend to others.

3rd Sep 2026 (21 days ago)I had a very smooth and straightforward experience from start to finish. The process was well organised, and collecting my keys was easy and stress-free. I would especially like to appreciate Sophia, who was excellent throughout the process, professional, helpful, friendly, and responsive. Thank you, Sophia, for making everything so easy.

26th Aug 2026 (29 days ago)We worked with this so called ,, senior negotiator ,, Chloe , while trying to purchase a property. Throughout the process, the negotiation tactics were highly aggressive & lacked transparency. Chloe pressured us to increase our offer by claiming there were multiple higher bids, but refused to provide clear timeline updates or confirm when our conditions were presented to the vendor. Due to this lack of communication and high-pressure environment, we withdrew our interest. I would not recommend using this agency if you value transparency or professional service.<br>Lacked communication & honesty. Time wasting .<br>Avoid at all costs.
22nd Sep 2026 (2 days ago)Kane was very helpful for setting up are rented property. All questions and queries were dealt with very quickly,highly recommended.
4th Sep 2026 (20 days ago)They lie on their moving in and moving out checks - take a video with you.<br>Also they make you feel obliged to give good Internet reviews for them.<br>I'll never forget the 2 years they spent trying to get my brother to pay for an iron mark which was on the carpet when he moved in.<br>Another house, I left a new washing machine behind, which they charged a £100 disposal fee for. When I said I'd collect it myself they said it was OK to leave!<br>Very low moral standards of all the staff here
2nd Jun 2026 (16 weeks ago)I couldn’t fault the service I have received from Elms Price. They have been so professional and communication has been excellent throughout the whole process. Nothing was too much trouble for them and all the viewings were completed by the agent. Andrew, Daryl and Cheryl were always contactable and kept me fully informed of progress. I totally recommend this company.
20th May 2026 (18 weeks ago)From day one, the whole experience has been smooth, stress-free, and genuinely pleasant. The team is friendly, approachable, and always quick to respond to any questions or issues we’ve had. Any maintenance requests were dealt with promptly and efficiently, and we’ve always felt like we were being taken seriously and looked after. Moving in was straightforward, and the communication throughout our tenancy has been excellent. It’s rare to find a letting agency that feels this organised and genuinely cares about its tenants, but Ezelet absolutely delivers. We’ve felt supported throughout and really appreciate the high level of service. We would happily recommend Ezelet to anyone looking for a reliable and professional letting agency! More power Ezelet.
26th Aug 2026 (29 days ago)Amazing communication and helpful, clear, concise advice throughout what has been a very stressful house purchase! We couldn’t have done it without everyone’s help but a special shout out to Rachele Winn for everything she did to keep the process going!
2nd Sep 2026 (22 days ago)Amy and Marcus at Oakheart were brilliant throughout the sale of our home. Their communication was constant and clear, keeping us fully informed every step of the way. Even when things got really stressful, they stayed calm, proactive and genuinely supportive. A friendly, reliable team who made a huge difference. Honestly, we felt like we hit the jackpot. We genuinely couldn’t have done it without them.Harris and Wood - Chesterwell

17th Sep 2026 (7 days ago)I had such a great experience with Bethaney what a lovely girl ! I will definitely be telling my friends who are looking to rent properties to ask for her :)
1st Sep 2026 (23 days ago)Connells provided an excellent service throughout the process even helping unravel some legal questions marks we had even though it was not their responsibility.<br>Polite friendly and willing staff who always turned up for viewings as planned (Not all of them do!!)<br>Highly recommended
