I recently had an offer accepted on a property through Boydens and couldn’t be happier with the experience. Beth, in particular, has been an absolute gem throughout the entire process -responsive, helpful, and genuinely lovely to deal with. You can tell she’s a real pro at what she does, making everything feel smooth and under control even when things got hectic. Thank you, Beth and the team at Boydens, for making what could have been a stressful process feel so seamless and positive.

I am very pleased with how Boydens Frinton on Sea dealt with my enquiry. They were all kind,
respectful, professional, and lovely.
Especially Matthew Hayward, who made sure I was being kept up to date with everything, and was very patient and kind with me, while guiding me through the renting process in a very professional way.
I would also recommend Bethany Halsall and Kathryn Barker, who also look after the renting side of things for me. They make everything nice easy and they are a pleasure to work with.
Thank you so much everyone at Boydens for all your hard work.

When I approached Boydens my late mother's flat had been on the market for over 3 years in spite of trying another local agent, online auctions and other properties purchasing organisations so I was beginning to give up hope.
They were very welcoming and easy to deal with and advised the price I'd arrived at was reasonable and that they had someone who might be interested.
They face sensible advice on the market and when they did secure the sale soon afterwards kept me regularly up to date with emails and chased up solicitors/purchaser so I didn't need to contact them. Everyone I dealt with was pleasant and helpful.

Very much appreciate how Boydens support the local community. For many years now Beth from this branch and David and Paul from the Colchester branch have provided posters and cards for our summer lunchtime concerts at St. Mary's Parish Church. We have managed to raise with their help £1700 for the church and Alzheimers. So grateful for Boydens' help and commitment to this venture.

Extremely professional set up, very friendly and knowledgeable of local market and everything involved. A completely smooth experience from first meeting Matthew the manager and the way his team helped us through the highs and lows of house sales. Special appreciation to Gemma who takes on the sale progression and she is very responsive and guided us through, despite the obstacles thrown up along the way.
If you want a house sell/buy then you cannot go wrong if you use Boydens at Frinton. Highly recommended.

Pleasant, friendly, but gave honest opinions about the property, with good reasons for their valuation. They were enthusiastic about our property, had excellent marketing photos and videos. They gave prompt feedback from viewers. Staff absences always covered. Responded quickly to texts/emails. Sold quickly at a price we were looking for. Dealt with ‘the chain’ (alongside our excellent solicitor) so we didn’t have to get involved. A positive experience.

Recently dealt with Macauley and Amy at Boydens Coastal branch and have to say I was impressed with the effort they made in order for us to view the property we bought.
Nothing was too much trouble including Macauley taking time out of his own bank holiday weekend to allow us a 2nd view as a family.
We instantly felt we were on the same page and submitted an offer on our 2nd viewing . Macauley was honest enough to say our offer was where he’d valued the property.
I have since recommended him to my sister who is now looking in the same area.
Well done to all at Boydens including Gemma who helped push our purchase through as the sale progressor.

We chose the Boydens, Frinton, Branch from a wide choice of Property Agents in the Clacton/Frinton area to provide a complete service managing our 4 properties. It was a very wise choice, as they have handled all functions such as finding Tenants, rental and maintenance concerns professionally with a well lead friendly Team Manager.

I bought a house through Boydens Estate agents, so I can only speak from a buyer's viewpoint. Macauley Smout was the agent that I dealt with. The house I wished to buy was empty, and so it always required someone to arrive with a key, and wait while I looked around. MC had to accompany me several times while I weighed up the pros and cons of buying a house that had been lacking TLC for quite a while. MC was always patient, and never 'pushy'. He also interceded with the owners to get certain unwanted items removed from the property; this could potentially have been a serious sticking point. When I put in my final offer, he expedited the sale with efficiency and sensitivity, and I was able to buy the property for less than the original price.

Very helpful in my search for a new rental, managed to fit my viewing in late to which then I actually received the news I was successful for the property. Good information when it comes to council tax bands, electric rating etc so at least you're not hit with a load of I don't knows to your questions about the property. Professional and well presented, I think the ladies name was Hayley, she was just returning from maternity leave so very understanding of my situation being a working mum and trying to find the ideal home. Also I've spoken to Beth during the process too, thanks for being NH so helpful ladies! ????
Just a more personal experience I feel tofinding a property. Thank you ????

I write this from my new home, thanks to Macauley and Gemma who successfully got me the property I wanted and sold my home, all on the same day! The whole process of buying and selling was made easy with weekly updates from Gemma. Gemma also chased solicitors and did everything to ensure completion went through. Macauley clearly loves his job and I am very grateful for his patience in me wanting to make many visits (some longer than others!) To my new property.
Thank you so much guys! You really have helped me find my new home! Would definitely recommend and definitely use again.

A huge thanks to Macauley and Gemma at Boydens Coastal who both worked extremely hard on our behalf to ensure that the sale of our property was successful.

By being both super-efficient, and very thorough, Boydens helped me buy property for the first time in my late 60s! I was kept informed, benefitted from their team-work, but above all felt I was being treated with understanding, as an individual with whom they empathised. I enjoyed their sense of humour when the going got tough!
Even after the sale was completed Boydens has continued to go the extra mile and their knowledge and recommendation of local services(plumbers,cleaners,painters) ironing out glitches has been invaluable.
I felt that both I, and the property were well-treated. I appreciated and thank Amy and Gaynor in particular for being both practical and sensitive.
I thought that 'Estate-Agenting' was just about property . . but see now that it's all about people! And that's what Boydens Coastal do well.
So A Big Hug to you all at Boydens!

Another excellent experience had with Boydens. Having used them a few years ago to buy our beach hut and been impressed with them we didn't hesitate to use them again as we came to sell. Amy again was our point of contact and couldn't have been more helpful and professional. She kept us up to date with progress and dealt with our concerns (not caused by Boydens) promptly and calmly. On the occasion we dealt with other personnel in the office we found them to be just as helpful and efficient , a great team! Thoroughly recommend.

I would put minus if it was at all possible. As a Maintenance company they are a total rip off. They jump fees up £100 at a time, do very little work just top up the kitty. I have been under a maintenance company for a freehold property before so know how they should run. A year ago when we move here we were told the fees would be £200 which quickly went to £240 and 14 months later £511.83. We are told this is just for 55% so as pensioners we will be bankrupt.

Stephanie from Boyden’s Coastal branch found my parents their ideal retirement flat and Amy and Stephanie then helped us sell their family home of 35 years, on the first day of it being live on Rightmove for the full asking price! From the beginning to the end of the buy and sell process we found them to be highly professional, helpful and trustworthy. In fact nothing was too much trouble. We used Boyden’s superior homes package and thought the excellent professional photos and video produced by OpticMatter really helped sell the house. A special mention also for Gemma, the sales Progresser, who worked tirelessly to bring an extremely difficult chain (with much less reputable estate agents) to completion. Cannot recommend Boyden’s Coastal Branch highly enough and would definitely use them again. Well done team Boyden’s!!

Haley Thompkins works in the letting section. She is efficient, friendly, helpful and kind. She answered every query I had quickly and took me through the process of applying to rent a flat with ease. I am extremely grateful and from next week will be living in my dream property. I cannot thank Haley enough and can highly recommend her.
Along with Haley I would like to recommend Stephanie Bonds who took me for a second viewing without any notice. She immediately helped me to see where to place furniture and recommended places to purchase it. She was professional, friendly and helpful.
From visits, to answering the phone and helping with queries, I can highly recommend the whole team at Boydens and look forward to a continuing relationship with them.

The process was simple and Beth and Matt kept in touch and were very friendly and helpful, answering any questions as I went. The referencing system was also easy to navigate. I'd recommend Boydens to rent from as they are really personable and professional. I even got a lovely little goody box as a token gesture which was a nice little touch. A couple of things I've needed assistance with has been dealt with promptly. I'm very happy. Thank you. ????

Purchasing a house is a complex matter but with Boydens - Frinton On Sea -it has been an easy process. Amy Buxton and the Team at Boydens are all very friendly and always great you with a smile. They have been helpful and guided me through each stage of the purchase. I am pleased and thankful to them that this experience has been so positive.

I sold my house through Amy at Boydens in Frinton and I honestly do not think it would have gone through without her. She was integral to keeping things on point between me and my buyer. Thank you Amy!

Disgusted and betrayed by a company
I rented a 4 bed house in Frinton Through Boydens
Firstly they are more expensive the others for contracts etc ,but I didn't mind as I thought peace of mind if I have problems ( little did I know )
Half the lights didn't work ( blown light bulbs )
I fitted new bulbs throughout the house .in the kitchen I found the bulbs kept blowing so i informed Boydens they said they would speak to the landlord and get back to me
Nothing happened so i kept phoning
It took 6 weeks to get light in my kitchen not good in the winter evenings cooking for a family by torch and phone light .
I was also kept awake most nights by a constant sound coming from the boiler pump .so I of course phoned Boydens
5 different workman came and if was agreed that the whole system had been wired up incorrectly and that it needed all changing ( by this time my gas bills were through the roof )
As I was told that the boiler was constantly coming on . 7 weeks later it was fixed .
I also noticed when I moved in that we ( family ) couldn't use the bathroom upstairs as no water would come from the taps ,ok there was some water but it would of taken 1 year to fill a bath that's how much came from the taps . So I phoned Boydens ( of course )
3-4 months to get it fixed lucky there was a downstairs shower and sink .
Onto the outside security lights none worked and were rusty no problem I thought I will fit new ones the problem that on inspection the whole wire system was AGAIN done by an idiot
Nutural and Nutural ( black to black )go together
Live and live ( red to red ) go together not in this house someone have put black to red
Once I'd fixed myself and fitted new lights everything worked correctly .
I decided to end the contract of the lease
Gave Boydens 2 months notice
I cleaned the house thoughout bleaching floors ,wood oil for kitchen worktops etc . The place was shining
Better looking than when I moved into it
Plus electric was 100% safe ,with a new pump and boiler and a bathroom that was fit for a king ( well a family )
I'm a working person and couldn't meet Boydens when they came to check the place to move out they would only give me a daytime slot not even early eve when their shop was still open .
But I didn't mind as I knew there was nothing wrong .
I THEN AM told that they wouldn't give my deposit back
"Why I asked "?,?
The cleaning wasnt done by a professional cleaning company
They started picking up on silly things like marks on sockets ( small marks )
That could just rub off
Oh and the grass was 1 inch higher than it should be so they would have to get a gardener
I demanded my deposit back telling them what I'd done and what I'd been theough since moving in , all I was told was they would speak to the landlord
After nearly 2 months fighting my case they charged me £320
To clean AGAIN AND CUT THE GRASS ( THE 1 INCH TO HIGH GRASS )
I was told £320 or they would hold onto my money and keep fighting
What choice did I have
NEVER GET THIS COMPANY TO HANDLE ANYTHING

Katie Wood 's professional demeanour is a credit to Boyden"s (Frinton branch). I was treated as an individual, not just a 'client'. Katie demonstrated efficiency, patience and sensitivity during a period of loss. Thank you! I am really happy in my new home.

Excellent and highly professional Real Estate Agency. Very special thanks to Ms Lynne Buxton. Her tremendous support and committment to the case was enormously helpful to achieve completion of contract. Also a big thank you to Ms Amy Buxton. Her initial support gave me confidence right from the beginning. It was a pleasure working with you two!

Lynne, Amy, Katie and the team were amazing with their handling of the sale of my Father's bungalow. Nothing was too much trouble, and they handled a complicated transaction with professionalism and attention to detail, and helped me through the emotional aspect with sensitivity and care. I would wholeheartedly recommend them. A great team :)

The marketing of my luxury modern seafront Apartment was aimed at a very specific sector of the market which Boyden’s successfully recognised & targeted with a steady stream of enquiries: they supervised all the viewings & at the same time filtered out those opportunistic/phoney enquiries etc,
When it came to Exchange & Completion they stepped in and replaced much of what I had assumed were my Solicitors responsibilities & liaised with all parties of the extended chain which led to a successful compromise.
I could not be happier with their service & would recommend Boyden’s without hesitation if you are looking to buy/sell a property.

We were desperate to sell our house quickly. After a discussion with Lynne we agreed some basic conditions for Boydens to work from. One of which was to find and good buyer within two weeks. Which was achieved.
Once the sale was progressing Katie took over, keeping us up to date with progress and ensured both us and the buyer worked towards completion as quickly as possible.
I have been very impressed how Boydens managed the whole process and would recommend them.

Arrogant staff which is surprising for a locally run business in a small traditional town.

If you are looking for an estate agent to sell or buy through we highly recommend Boydens.
When problems started to arise at the bottom of the chain (we were the top) Katie went above and beyond to keep us informed of the progress of the sale at all times, without her help, assistance and hard work we would not be living in our dream home by the beach.
If we could give 10 stars ?? we would.

We recently purchased a beach hut through Boydens and they were fantastic. We dealt with Raina and she was friendly, helpful and extremely efficient and a pleasure to deal with. I cannot recommend Boydens oh and Raina enough.

Lynne Buxton from Boydens in Frinton handled our recent purchase in Frinton with skill, diplomacy and great knowledge. Lynne's involvement was instrumental in getting the whole chain exchanged within 3 weeks! I would unreservedly recommend Lynne and her office to anyone buying and selling in Frinton. Thank you Lynne!
