The best estate agents in town!! Really helpful and look after their tenants, they always respond to calls and emails very quickly. Lyn is especially amazing and very professional.

There is a real benefit when moving something as substantial as your home, to using a team that take the time to understand you, your needs and desires.

Debbie and Amy took the time to understand us and to really work with us, keeping us fully updated of every step of the process.

I really can’t thank them enough and they both deserve the recognition that it is service like theirs that makes Blackshaw Homes what it is.

Moved a couple of weeks ago and would like to say thanks to Debbie, Amy and the team at Blackshaws for doing a great job.
They kept the sale on track and dealt with all the queries with professionalism, selling the house is only 50% of the process, seeing it through to completion and keeping all parties informed and satisfied is what justifies the fees.
Thanks again
Nigel Cottis.

Blackshaw have been excellent throughout the selling process, (and through the lockdown as well), and I cannot recommend them too highly

We were first in contact with Blackshaw Homes during Covid Lockdown and despite the restrictions, Blackshaws established a way of us viewing the property in person while keeping everyone safe. 
Big thanks to Linda who was always quick to reply to all communications and provided clarity and support when needed.

As a landlord looking to rent out my property I approached Blackshaw Homes as they were most local to the area in Southchurch. I spoke with Linda the Lettings Manager and she was very responsive, enthusiastic and helpful. She viewed the property (this even included a walkthrough recorded to DVD so as to avoid any future disputes) and in less than a week she had found me the perfect tenants! It has been pleasing and reassuring that Linda has also been very responsive to my emails & phone calls throughout & she has liaised on my behalf with external professionals and the tenants to address a couple of issues for me.
All in all, this was my first experience with Blackshaw Homes and I have been very impressed with the service, so a big thank you to Linda!

We have just moved out of a property, that we rented for 5 years and it has been the easiest 5 years rental I have ever experienced. Whenever we had an issue, Linda was always so helpful. She really took the time to know us, as a family, and always wanted to do the best for the tenants. I cannot thank them enough for being so supportive. If anyone is considering renting a property through Blackshaw - do not hesitate, phone and speak to Linda - she is phenomenal. Linda, we hope you see this review - thank you so much for the amazing support that you have given us, we are forever grateful.

We chose Blackshaw Homes to sell our flat as we didn't have a great experience with the previous estate agents. Debbie was amazing throughout the whole process and she couldn't of done any more to ensure our sale went through quickly and efficiently. We were very impressed with the service from Blackshaw Homes and would like to thank Debbie in particular for all of her help.

I spoke to Blackshaw Homes and want to say just  how impressed I am with them. They provided a very fast and very efficient service, selling my property within 48 hours. I will definitely want to recommend the staff and the company to those I know need this service. I am still a little shellshocked at how quickly it sold but very pleased with the overall efficiency.

Fantastic service from start to finish. Good communication and Regular feedback was provided. However it would have been nice if the agent had arranged for us to meet the previous owners. Although this might not be a requirement but a handover would have gone a long way in identifying things like location of main water supply... just as an example.

We bought and sold properties through Blackshaws August 2019, moving from London to Southend, so needed help with local area information, general guidance and patience. We were so pleased with the whole service, from start to finish. They offered all ranges of help and assistance along the way with updates/news when required then helped once we moved in with additional assistance to make the whole process as smooth as possible. 
We were helped by all staff when we called in the office by phone, all messages were passed on and nothing went ignored. 
Perry and Debbie offered a wealth of knowledge, were helpful, kind and VERY patient. Nothing was too much. 
All in all, we cannot recommend Blackshaws enough, they will make your whole experience with them a breeze.

It has been a pleasure to deal with an experienced agent who has looked after the sale process from start to finish. I would highly recommend this agent.

I brought my house down Trinity Road in Southend from Blackshaws back in 2010 and had great service then.  So when the time came to now sell my house I decided to use them again.  The service hasn’t changed, It was sold within a month.  They were contactable via telephone email and text (which helped when I had just a quick question to ask).

The sale process would not have been as smooth without them and I even got quicker answers from them than my solicitors.

I would be happy to recommend them to any of my family and friends and if the need ever arises again would use them in the future.

Very pleasant and professional, friendly,  Would recommend

They certainly get the viewers and accompany each viewer which is very helpful.

I have found Blackshaws to be very professional. I have had more viewers in the first two weeks than I have with other agents in three months. They go all out to sell your property.

got blacks haws after bad on line experience,they  worked really hard to sell our house fast after bad time with prev, sold in 2 days ,all went wrong as buyer waited to just before exchange  to drop price big time .But  Perry straight away got people round to view ,Debbie done viewings lovely lady  also help me and Linda also always got straight on to any thing i asked about .great estate agents

Absolute joke of an estate agent, lie that they have clients in line for your property. Mess up open days by putting wrong days on the advert. Then after recommending viewing days when no one books a viewing try and turn it around on the customer saying it’s their fault. The director and owner won’t admit they have made mistakes. Avoid at all costs

A really nice agency to deal with! Linda is friendly, approachable, always deals with any issues in a timely fashion and generally makes the whole rental process as easy as possible.

Very good estate agents, very good communication, polite and professional staff.
Thank you Perry and your team.

Great service and very helpful in assisting me buying. I definitely would recommend them.

I have recently rented my property through Blackshaw homes who have made everything easy for me and got the place rented out quickly and smoothly! They have kept me up to date and informed at all times and I will definitely be using them again. Highly recommend

Fantastic service from the staff at Blackshaw Homes. They let my flat quickly and efficiently keeping updated at all times on the progress of the letting.

Very good service, have been served many times without any charge, would go back any time needed again nd would recommend to my friends nd family too :))

My daughter rents from these people and always paying her rent on time she is treated appallingly when it comes to repairs etc. They should be ashamed of themselves. She just gets fobbed off day after day. I cant give her name as they will probably try to evict her. DISCUSTING.

We chose to sell our house using Blackshaws as they sold the property to us originally and the service was OK. This time around, as a seller we felt they were never on our side with regards to surveys, enquiries, low offers or any other issues. The initial sales lady is great, but as soon as it was passed over, the whole experience was a bit of a nightmare and everything was dealt with very unprofessionally. Would not recommend unfortunately.

I've been renting out my flat through Blackshaw homes and it has been totally stress-free.  They quickly sort out problems in the property and look after my tenant well.  They don't suddenly send me a big bill for a repair, but they try to find the cheapest and best way.  I'm very happy with the service!

Having recently sold a property with the help of Blackshaw Homes, Amanda, Perry and the whole team were amazing. Friendly but professional at all times. It was a problematic sale but their expertise made all the difference. Highly recommended.

Very pleased with the sales and support service received from all members of the Blackshaws Team. Would definitely use them again and have no hesitation in recommending them to any prospective Vendor or Purchaser.

We rented from Blackshaw for 7 years they were a disgrace, boiler didn't work, slugs, mice, rising damp.. you name it we had it.. they did nothing to improve the living conditions.. id avoid like the plague

I'm surprised at other reviews through Google, and suspect many are friends / family members. Having recently dealt with Blackshaw homes on our recent house sale, I have a had a first hand experience on the 'service' they provide. 

1. The sales progression team is outsourced (to a firm in Bournemouth), so don't expect the left hand to know what the right hand is doing.

2. They won't pass on key information to parties involved if it will have any affect on the sale / price etc.

3. Staff retention / customer service skills are bad, even with 'management team' - so the issue is at the top. 

Estate agents as a whole have a poor reputation, and Blackshaw Homes truly live up to that reputation.

awful experience,I am really surprised to see so many positive reviews . The real estate agent was unfriendly, i will not recommend blackshaw homes to any of my friends or relatives. very  unprofessional

After putting a property on the market it was sold in one day. I would like to say how profession the staff of Blackshaw Homes are and would recommend to anybody.

Great service, they are very proactive in helping us find a flat. The staff are extremely professional when conducting viewings, our particular estate agent Rob Plant has been of great assistance so far! 

We are currently going through our first property purchase with Blackshaws. They have been helpful and efficient from the start. Anyone that we have dealt with has cared and wanted to help make the process as less stressful as possible. Would recommend to anyone buying, selling or renting.

After my Mother moved into a residential home, we had to sell the home she had lived in for 66 years, not a process we were looking forward to. Thank goodness we found Blackshaws. I can't praise Rob and his colleagues highly enough (if there were a 6th star I would add it). We had lots of viewings very quickly and a few offers which were communicated to us immediately. Blackshaws finally achieved an excellent offer, which we accepted and Rob and the team kept us in touch every step of the way and finally completed two weeks ago. Thank you so much Blackshaws for making what could have been a difficult process into an efficient and sympathetic experience. An absolutely charming team. - thank you so much.

I used blackshaw homes to sell my property could not fault them one bit. They was in touch with me from the begining to the day i moved not like some estate agents. They used a professional photographer to market my property very nice and friendly staff. I would recommend this estate agent to any one thinking of selling there property.

I have dealt with Blackshaw Homes on both a purchase and a sale of properties and both times they were fantastic, they are a family run business and it shows in their friendly and committed approach, from start to finish they were friendly, professional and efficient and were in contact on a regular basis and they leave no stone unturned to see your purchase or sale complete. They use a professional photographer to market your property and unlike many agents they actually get many viewings and not just an easy open day. I have dealt with property and agents for many years and I would have no hesitation in recommending this fantastic family agents! .... Great people & great agents, look no further if you are wishing to sell your property.

When selling my property, Blackshaw Homes provided a professional service at all times. They used a professional photographer to photograph my property (allowing my home to be shown off to its best) and asked each and every viewer for detailed feedback which was passed back onto me after each viewing. We encountered a few problems when selling our house, including having to extend a lease and having potential issues arise on the property survey. Blackshaw Homes guided us through the process, going above and beyond to help ensure that the sale of our property went ahead as smoothly as possible. Due to their vast experience selling houses, they were able to provide contact details of industry experts who were able to solve all of our issues. I would definitely recommend Blackshaw Homes if you were looking to sell your house in the Southend area - compared to other estate agents I have dealt with they are by far the most helpful and professional I have ever encountered!
