I have dealt with Dan several times over the last 5 years and have to say I will not be using anyone else in the future we have created a great relationship as well as his lovely helpful colleagues.
This sale has been a very long drawn out process and been very frustrating at times Dan and his team have always been there at the end of the phone reassuring me and making me feel at ease as we all know selling and buying houses is so stressful at the best of times.
Dan also helped myself and my family sell our family home after our parents passed away last year , it was a hard process and they all made it and stress free as they could for myself and my sisters.
Well done Connels Eastleigh 5* for you all especially Dan .... Read more

My partner and I recently used Connells in Eastleigh to a sell a property and the ‘service’ offered was shocking. No communication from sales manager and when concerns were raised they fell on deaf ears and ignored. We would have to chase for updates and on many occasions it would be us updating them. Having purchased a property from a different estate agents I am aware there are other estate agents that do respect their clients. There was no effort made to improve our experience to the point we didn’t hear from them after we exchanged! Having been with them from March, i would not recommend using them and extremely encourage looking elsewhere... Read more

Appalling. I would not recommend listing a property with Connels in Eastleigh. We listed a three bed property a few months ago and the sales service Connels has provided has been terrible. Viewings are often booked without any communication to see if we can both accommodate (we have previously told Connels that we both WFH and need to move meetings around first) and on several occasions now the agent has either not turned up or very late. Today a client was waiting 20 minutes in the 27 degree heat because the agent apparently went to the wrong house. I can understand this might happen on occasion but this has happened in nearly each viewing on our property. Another gripe is that after a viewing we often have to contact Connels for feedback and too often we are speaking with someone who doesn't know who or what is going on. Avoid for sales.... Read more

Phenomenal! Over the last 8 months (1 attempted purchase which fell through and a second purchase which has now completed!) Connells have been amazing. I went to them for mortgage advice and they managed to get me a fantastic deal. Nothing was too much and whatever issue arose they dealt with in a calm and professional manner which put my mind at rest (as a very nervous first time buyer) dealt with both Charlotte Williams (Eastleigh) and Emma Pithie (bittern e/southampton) and both we amazing!

Although we didn’t end up buying through Connells in Eastleigh (we bought through their Romsey branch), Dan, Hobbie and Hayden could not have been more helpful. They took time to understand our needs, explained everything in as much detail as we needed, and even gave honest advice relating to properties being sold by other agents when asked (those other agents, incidentally, didn’t appear to have the level of knowledge Connells do).
We truly felt like Connells were working with us to find the right property at the right price, rather than just wanting to sell to us.
Highly recommended from a buyers perspective.... Read more

My initial mortgage adviser changed roles just before my first house purchase. We had built a good rapport, and I was worried about being transferred. In hindsight, all my concerns were ill placed! I was transferred to Charlotte Williams, who did a fantastic job of patiently guiding me through the complex process. She even explained aspects of the conveyancing process and highlighted points of concern after the building survey. Beyond this, she was very diligent and responsive with the mortgage application. Usually, emailing or phoning me soon after any interest rate drops to discuss updating my application. She would then watch the application and update me on the progress. Finally, her support was fundamental in the rushed completion that was needed in my case. She has been invaluable for a first-time buyer like me, and I look forward to contacting her regarding any future mortgage needs!... Read more

Started off with a viewing that didn’t happen – arranged for a viewing, I turned up in plenty of time, but no one turned up – phoned and it was reported that they had misplaced the key, so had to rearrange.
For the rearranged viewing – again I turned up with plenty of time – estate agent arrived late and with the incorrect keys to access the block that the property was in – we had to contact a current resident to unlock the main entrance door, before accessing the property itself.
The estate agent arrived at the property with limited knowledge and no introduction pack about the property - which all other property/ estate agents from other companies that I have experienced have provided.
Lack of Communication from all personnel at the branch; had contact and communication with 5+ members of staff, all of which were not reliable and led to inconsistency and negative work practices.
The only positive communications that we received was from the Conveyancer, who was very helpful and cooperative - and was not even based at the branch.
Failed to respect my own personal work commitments, which limited when communications could have been made; but to support with this issue I expressed my ideal timing preferences for communications on several occasions as to which they ignored.
Dishonest response to email communications and not taking responsibility for negative experiences when challenged,... Read more

We recently found a property to rent through Connells. We had a viewing with a lovely young lady called Shannon. We put our names forward and within a matter of days, the property was ours and finalised, with constant updates and reassurance that everything was going smoothly. All referencing was done and chased up in one day or so and all our requests were sorted. She couldn’t be more helpful and supportive, provided us completely stress-free experience considering we only had a few weeks to find a property. We could not be happier with this service. ??????????... Read more

I received high quality service from Connells. First agent, who made me comfortable when viewing the property as as I didn't feel any rush. Kudos to Shannon, who is very professional and answered all my questions and doubts. When she said she'll call in 2 days, she really did it. No silly excuses or unanswered queries. Most agents seem the same over the phone, but when you meet Shannon in person, you'll notice that she's the right person for the job. From the viewing to the contract signing I felt like I'm being taken care of as I didn't have to follow up on anything and there was nothing pending left, which saved us huge amount of time and hassle. Big thanks to Stuart for his guidance too. Keep up the good work, guys!... Read more

Connells Eastleigh were superb from start to finish, with my sale being managed by Dan and Martyna.
The initial property valuation was undertaken in a thorough manner, with Dan taking a genuine interest in the property and myself as the client, with the plus of competitive rates. This set Connells apart from the competition.
The viewings were well co-ordinated which was further aided by software to advise and remind of agreed viewings. Communication has always been exceptional by both Dan and Martyna, with viewing feedback and offers professionally managed in a timely manner.
Overall, its been a very smooth transaction, with both Dan and Martyna going above and beyond throughout the process. Thank You for your support.... Read more

They were easy to contact, easier yet to get answers from as well as directions as what we were doing next. Seriously?

Connells were fine up until we moved out of the rental property and then they took over a month to refund the deposit and were very reluctant to do so even though the landlord had fully authorised it.
It took complaint to head office to finally receive the deposit.
For this I give them 2 stars because to withhold deposit leaves you in financial difficulty.
Be very careful with Charlotte the lettings ‘manager’ and get everything in writing!... Read more

Bad Bad service got ripped off big time. We are relocating from Bradford West Yorkshire to Eastleigh Hampshire. We have jobs but don't start till 4th Feb, we found a house on this site that we liked. It was POA, we requested a price which come back at £900, we arranged viewing. We started the long 250 mile drive. We got to about 30 miles away when the agent Demi phoned to say that we had been misquoted by her manager and the price was actually £995.
We told the agent that it was way over our limit the agent said she could talk to the landlord so we still went to view, while viewing the agent said and I quot " It hasn't had a lot of interest so might be worth offering the landlord £900 “ (we eventually agreed £950) When arranging the viewing it was made perfectly clear that our jobs didn't start untill the 4th of Febuary (wich we was told would be ok by the agent) and we had plenty of money to cover the rent untill we started jobs in the ambulance service (even though I was still employed in Bradford}
We paid £500 for holding fee and referencing. A couple of days latter we were told that WE WOULD HAVE TO START WORK WITHIN A MONTH OF MOVING IN. We told them that it was made clear we couldn't start work until Febuary 4th. IF we were told this before paying £500 we wouldn't have procedded we were told we were unemployed!! When I was working and we both have jobs lined up to start. SO RIPPED OFF FOR £500...Be careful not all cracked up to be........ Read more

Very very bad from a landlord's point of view. This branch of Connells ripped me off twice. As an estate agent, instructed by the seller or landlord, you would think they would work for the landlord and provide an excellent service. Well no. The people working in this branch are unprofessional and feel they can rip off landlords. The tenant they put in damaged one of my bathroom taps, when I tried to take the cost of the tap, not the plumber but just the tap, out of the tenants deposit, Connells sided with the tenant who twice they had to chase for rent in a 3 month contract!!!
Connells employs young kids with a serious socialist, anti-capitalist attitude. Just what you wan't from people who offer a service to capitalist minded people.
Total FAIL
If you are a landlord and they have ripped you off, contact their head office and push the issue. Twice I was refunded for a dodgy inventory, rip off hidden fees and a mis-sold rent insurance policy. Yes my first tenant paid 6 minths rent up frint and Connells still charged me for the rent guarantee insurance LOL.
If you are a landlord thinking of using them, AVOID. It is people like this who make renting out a property a nightmare and give honest estate agents a bad name. Forget nightmare tenants, a nightmare estate agent is your biggest worry when you have Connella managing your property.
I now use Stanfords and have never been so happy to let the true professionals deal with letting out my house.... Read more

My wife and I purchased our property through the Connells and we received great customer service from the whole branch, but a specific shout out must go to Abigail, who helped us us so much in pushing the transaction through, as our conveyancers were utterly useless.
I would not hesitate to recommend Connells Eastleigh to anyone wanting to purchase a property in the area, however I would advise checking the credentials of the conveyancers that they recommend you.
The company Connells advised us to use (TCS) was an absolute nightmare and nearly ruined the transaction. I know that Connells would not purposefully stick you with bad conveyancers, as the sale of a property is in their interest as well as the buyers, but there could be a possible vetting issue with the firms they partner with....

I would say the staff were very helpful initially when I rented a property through them. The fees are quite steep considering I was paying 12 months in advance for rent anyway. Lisa was very helpful and responsive, however their property management company are very poor. I had been waiting to hear about my deposit and was told it can take up to 3 months!! but I spoke to the tds and was told that you can start a dispute after 10 days this seemed to get the ball rolling, and the tds said I should receive my money within 3 days a week later nothing. I called the management company who were going to email straight back...nothing I have called the branch ...nothing so far they took 2 months deposit in advance but seem to be hanging on to it for as long as possible.Their communication is very bad apart from constant emails about using their recommended power supplier (which they transferred to their own supplier as soon as they knew I was leaving so the new tenant would be using their I'm assuming commision based suppliers) as a tenant they are allowed to make their own decisions. I am still getting emails from them to sign up to their stuff even though I have asked them to stop as I no longer rent through connells. Which they were as consistent in other areas.... Read more
