Compare Estate Agents in Orpington

My particular thanks go to Andy Ralph who dealt very professionally with the sale throughout and also in regards to client confidentiality. His knowledge of property in the Hayes area was excellent and helped to reassure when the transaction took a little longer than I hoped. I would have no hesitation in recommending Andy for any sale or purchase.

Beth has been a pleasure to deal with and has been very proactive in chasing everyone up in order to complete my house move. Would definitely recommend Beth and the team at KFH. Sandra Reynolds

Terrible communication, spent most of my time phoning them for updates as they never rang me. Call and leave messages that never get returned. Asked for letting agent to call me many times, never happened. Went with another company and glad I did.

Excellent estate agents. Very professional from first contact through to completion of sale. Chose them because of the great coverage they have with many offices in the region. We had lots of viewings very quickly and secured a credible buyer faster than we anticipated. Overall we would happily recommend JDM Petts Wood.

We used Alan De Maid to sell our house towards the end of last year. We switched to them from a different estate agent with whom we had been struggling and we were so glad we did. If only we had done so sooner! The service we got from Alan de Maid was fantastic and so different to what we had experienced elsewhere. The whole team were very professional and helpful and kept us fully informed on progress and developments around viewings etc. They were all really connected so it didn’t matter who we spoke to, everyone knew what was happening. They gave us helpful and practical advice around the offers we received on our house and Diane’s guidance and experience was invaluable as we navigated our way through a few complications in relation to the property we were purchasing. The progression service was equally impressive and we managed to get to completion in just 7 weeks. We’ve no doubt that this was helped by the efforts of the Alan de Maid team to keep things moving along. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Alan de Maid.

Very helpful and friendly staff who all went out there way to help me and my girlfriend move into Property. They went above and beyond Making sure we could secure the property.

Awful would not use the estate agent purely out of principal. Jane in sales is particularly rude and not a helpful happy sales agent that you would expect. Worst of all don’t ask her questions as she will give you a sarcastic answer! Think she should consider a job where she doesn’t have to deal with the public

I've no connection with Hunters, or with Dave or Sarah at the Forest Hill branch. Nor was this feedback commissioned or solicited. It's important you know this because of what I'm about to write. I've been around a while and bought and sold a fair few properties in my time. I've worked with a range of agents from the kind that fully justify why so many people think so little about them, through to those that were for their time pretty good. But Dave and Sarah at Hunters estate agents on Dartmouth Road in Forest Hill are in danger of redefining what we think of estate agents. For me they've already set new standards... They are the best estate agents I've worked with. From our first encounter, through the entire sales process to completion and beyond, Dave and Sarah displayed professionalism, expertise, energy and genuine enthusiasm - and all at levels that went way beyond the norm in my experience. We talked to six different Forest Hill agents. Dave marked himself out with a guide price that was a good 12.5% higher than the next highest and some 35% higher than the lowest valuation received. It wasn't a simple gambit to get us to sign up: Dave's reasons were logical and showed a deep understanding of the local conditions and the particular property in question. And the marketing strategy he suggested was subtly but importantly different to everyone else's. It took into account the particular conditions of the local market and the unique aspects of the property. It wasn't the bland vanilla one size fits all that the other estate agents we met were offering... And that price? Well Hunters got it for us! Their work didn't stop there: right through to completion Dave, Sarah and the Hunters backup team worked brilliantly, were always there for us. It wasn't all plain sailing though - is it ever? - but throughout the process Hunters did everything they could to make it as stress-free and painless as possible. The result was a property sold as fast as we asked it to be sold, at a price considerably higher than we were expecting, and in a manner that was not just professional, but also enlightening and enjoyable. There's something else too... They're really nice people: you might not feel this is important, but for us its a real bonus. So, to Dave and Sarah, thank you. And to anyone considering which Forest Hill estate agent to work with, do yourself a massive favour and seriously consider Dave, Sarah and Hunters.

Called up 4 times in one week to get a call back about a property we were really interested in. Each time I was told that nobody was available and that somebody would call me back. Never received a call. I explained this to them and they didn't really seem bothered. Given that buying a house is no small thing I would seriously steer clear and go to Ray Brooks or Robinson Jackson where the service is incredible from the moment you get in touch.
