The first time we visited the agency in person, it was on a Saturday, and we were not particularly impressed with the gentleman who welcomed us. We didn’t feel like our needs were understood.
However, I must say that after that initial visit, the agency was very proactive. I received several calls to arrange viewings and to gather information about our situation and the type of help we needed.
There was a misunderstanding regarding one of the viewings, but once again, the communication from their side was crucial. Everything was clarified and resolved promptly.
This positive experience is all thanks to Lissy, who took care of us and helped us change our minds about the agency.
We had a few viewings accompanied by Lissy, and we enjoyed the experience with her. It was nice, smooth, and comfortable.
We hope to have the chance to do a few more viewings with her and ultimately make our final choice.... Read more

What an absolute liar and conman the manager Kyran is.
Kyran sat down in our own home and told us that the contract we would be signing was for 12 weeks, but after signing the contract we read it and realised it was a 26 week contract we had signed!
Yes we should of read through the contract in full detail before signing but let’s be realistic, most of us do not read through a contract in detail before signing as we are normally eager to get signed up etc!
After 6 weeks of not having even one property viewing I decided to speak to another estate agent and they gave us the advise we needed by demanding a contract cancellation due to dishonesty.
I called Kyran at Connells and demanded a cancellation of contract due to dishonesty by making us sign a contract under false pretension, and within minutes Kyran had sent me an email saying he has cancelled the contract with no fees due and he had removed our property listing from there online listings within minutes.
When I requested from Kyran his head office details for a complaint all he wanted to send me was the cancellation email for Connells and not there main contact detail. I later called Connells back to ask again for the head office details and the lad in the office clearly knew it was myself calling and became very rude and abrupt (which is on voice recording)
Overall from the day we signed the contract, we found Kyran to be extremely abrupt, rude, non proactive and useless in his communication once he had his contract signed. A complete liar and conman that makes you sign a contract under a load of lies.
If you wish to use this is estate agent then I suggest you do what we did by having voice recording cctv during your contract term discussion with Connells as well as telephone call voice recording so that if it goes wrong you have back up ready for a court like we have!
Personally I would put the sale of your house on with another estate agent.... Read more

Working with the team at Connells East Grinstead was an absolute pleasure, and a large part of that exceptional experience can be attributed to the expertise and leadership of Kyran Fielder, the branch manager.
From the moment we started the process, it was evident that Kyran had assembled a knowledgeable and skilled team of professionals. Their in-depth understanding of the local market, coupled with their commitment to providing excellent customer service, made the entire process remarkably smooth and stress-free.
Kyran's expertise shone through in the way they guided their team, ensuring that every step of the transaction was handled with efficiency and precision. The timelines were expedited without compromising on quality, and communication was consistently clear and effective. I was kept informed at every stage, and any questions or concerns were promptly addressed.
Their genuine care and attention to detail made us feel valued and supported throughout the entire process.
Kyran's leadership and the professionalism of their team made what could have been a daunting experience into a seamless and enjoyable one. I cannot recommend them highly enough to anyone seeking an estate agent who truly puts their customers interests first.
Thank you, Kyran, and the entire team, for making our selling journey a resounding success!... Read more

Sales team - 5 stars! Mortgages team - 3 stars.
Doug and the rest of the sales team were the most pleasurable to deal with on my house hunt. While other estate agents made me doubt their agents even exist (looking at you Robinsons Crawley!), Doug was cheerful, helpful, professional and most importantly - reliable. I knew that if I called there would be a courteous and efficient administrator on the other end of the line.
Mortgages team didn't leave that good of an impression. They are extremely pushy, and I was surprised to receive a full-tilt marketing presentation at my first mortgage appointment, with Connells seemingly wanting to steal my soul and own me for the rest of my life. When I said after endless prompts and phone calls that I'll be going with an independent mortgage advisor, Erin sounded almost angry with me. Definitely not an experience I would like to repeat....

Upon first meeting the team at Connells they were professional and obviously knowledgeable about the local area. Trying to sell a property during the pandemic was a challenge but Doug, Jonny and the team were marketing my property well and getting the viewing in. They kept in close contact and gave constructive feedback.
What should have been a 'quick' sale with no chain turned into a long 6 month process, through no fault of Connells. Doug, Tina and the team tried their best to keep things moving but the challanges were out of their control. At times a quicker response to emails or messages could have been given, even if it was an email to say 'sorry, nothing new to update'.
On the whole I was very pleased with the service I received from Connells and the recommendation of the solicitor from them. I would happily use their services again and recommend them to others... Read more

All in all, a great team at Connells East Grinstead. We initially called them in to value our property after viewing a house with them. When viewing, Jonny impressed us initially with his professional, non-pushy and friendly approach. Equally, when valuing our property, Daniella impressed us with her understanding of the market and, unlike several other agents, she really ‘got’ our rather unusual property. Her valuation was spot on and Connells achieved an asking price offer within a couple of weeks, with Jonny going above and beyond to secure us a good deal. Following this, the experienced sales manager Doug has been great in keeping the sale on track through to completion. Thanks for all your help guys!... Read more

Doug made a really good impression on us when we met him and wasn't pushy (unlike others), so we decided to go with Connells. Getting our house marketed with them was a smooth process and the professional photos were excellent. We received an offer for the price we wanted in under a week! From accepting the offer through to completion, Connells were really proactive and made sure things kept progressing. Doug's intervention when a potential last minute hitch arose with solicitors shortly before exchange kept things on track! Strongly recommended.... Read more

Me and my husband moved in to a flat under Connells estate agents ~6 months back. Whenever we had an issue - it was taken up and dealt with promptly by Jody Collins (on behalf of Connells). She has been very understanding and helpful.
After giving such a positive review, 6 months after, we are still waiting for our dishwasher sorted. That's too bad. To make things worse… they delivered a stand out dishwasher … its taking up most part of the kitchen space. its just been left there. Biju mailed several times about the old and new dishwasher(not at all appropriate of our kitchen) to the Connells and no action taken so far. My husband just gave up contacting them altogether , frustrated. Atleast, if the Connells can get the dishwasher delivered out of the apartment… that would be very helpful.

They have not taken a "hard sell" approach, just normal and unpressurising. We received written confirmation of their appointment to visit, as well as information about how the house would be marketed - which felt organised and easy.

Fantastic, 1st class service!

Friendly, extremely professional, extremely knowledgeable and hard working to provide me the best possible service, if only the other Letting agents could take a leaf out of their book! I 100% recommend Lesley to anyone, she is by far the best letting agent I have used, a valuable asset to the company. Thanks for all your help over the years Lesley. I would also like to add that it was great to deal with a more mature employee within the Connells group who took great care and pride in her work and was fully focused on what she was doing for me....

Shockingly incompetent bunch of people at all levels within the organisation, an extract from our last exchange ;
I am absolutely seething with the level of incompetence at Connells Residential Lettings team.
We highlighted to Lesley weeks ago that the tenant was in breach of contract and if the outside of the house was anything to go by then the inside would be a mess also. Now look where we are...
The report from SUSSEX INVENTORIES clearly states that the in order for the property to be let a number of items in the report need to be remediated. There is NO evidence to support the property has been professionally cleaned and if someone from the letting department at East Grinstead actually went to have a look to witness the amount of cobwebs in the house, stale smell carpets, stains on the carpets, fat/rust on the extractor, uncleansed bathrooms, weeds in the garden etc. then you would also conclude the same.
Whilst I appreciate that the tenant has offered £200 pounds towards costs, after they have said it has been professionally cleaned ! this is theirs and Connells (As manager) problem to resolve. I don't care if it takes £50 or £2,000 to get right but it needs to be put right by the 11th October as we are moving in on the 12th. If it is not put right by the 11th then we will instruct our own contractors to resolve the works and reclaim the amounts through an ombudsman.
The biggest concerns for me are the stains on the carpet and the clean. The carpet was less than 6 months old when we moved out and in immaculate condition. The stains do NOT look like coffee but dog mess. Happy to be proved wrong. If they don't come up with a proper clean then we will need to recover the cost of replacing the carpet which will be a couple of thousand pounds.
For Samantha to request if we can release the deposit just proves that she has not read the report or validated that the tenants checking out obligations have been met, else she would have not made such as request.
Please remember I requested to be placed a number of points to safeguard us from this situation to which Lesley did not action or inform us that there was no contract in-place signed by the tenant, so I'm my mind there is a level of accountability and responsibility Connells need to take-on here. When I last spoke you said that the conditions of the earlier contract will be honoured and they the deposit is there to safeguard us against these types of issues.
Missing from the report is any mention of the dead plants on the front house and area adjacent to Sandy Lane, confirmation of the chimney sweep these needs to be added. I will perform a detailed review of the report and inspect the property on Saturday so there may be more items to raise that have not been picked up by SUSSEX INVENTORIES..
We do not approve the release of the deposit until such time the points in the document are remediated or matters resolved through an ombudsman.... Read more

Jeremy rodericks who works at connells was my advisor when i was purchasing a property.he advised me to put £1000 a side for solicitors fees and advised me which solicitors to use.i followed his instructions and ended up having to pay out £2900 in fees off the back of his poor advice.have disputed this to jeremy and connells customer service and both expect me to just accept it and are not prepared to do anything even though i lost a lot of money because of the poor advice i was given.during the time of me having to pay out more money then expected i had jeremy often ringing me up trying to get me to sign up to a will,no doubt looking to line his own pockets with the commision he would most of probably recieved from it.have asked for an answer as to why this has happened but jeremy wont tell me directly,instead he expects me to take time off work and attend a meeting with himself and another connells employee all because he has not got in in him to explain directly to me on his own...

Terrible letting agents. Slow to react, literally waited 18 months to get a gate fixed. Didn't follow procedure. Never brought any issues to our attention during "quarterly" inspections. Do not use... Read more
