We are just about to move into a property to let through connells (Grantham) zac has been so helpful throughout this, from getting us an earlier viewing, then an earlier moving date to save us from emergency housing and talking us through the process, moving home is stressful and he has tried to make it as stress free as he possibly could, Thankyou Zac...

We recently moved into our property and we've been supported by Zac throughout the process. I couldn't recommend him enough. He is so personable and approachable. Nothing is too much to ask. We are new to renting, so of course have lots of questions, but he is only ever too happy to answer them and help us. He's gone the extra mile in not only providing us with amazing knowledge of the property, but knowing we have moved a fair distance, he's given us lots of information and advice about the area and things that are suitable and fun to do as a family. He really is a credit to the company and we are so grateful for all he has done and continues to do.... Read more

Buying and selling with Connells was made a much smoother experience having Chris as my mortgage advisor, he kept me up date daily/weekly on everything, he really went above and beyond with the whole process, and I can’t thank him enough for that. There were some issues that cropped up and he was on it resolving them, sometimes before I even knew! Thanks everyone at Connells! Absolutely would recommend ????... Read more

A very unprofessional, untrustworthy service provided. I had hired Connells to sell my property but they couldnt. To start with , I had to chase them to advertise my property after a month of signing contract with them. When they did advertise it, the property has incorrect description and the video promised never was uploaded. The whole team Of Connells was replaced in early 2024 due to reasons I am unaware of but this led to zero communication between the agents and myself. When the new team came in only kept asking to drop the house price and arranged viewings when they can't attend. Gladly, I have moved away from them but would not recommend their service to anyone. A total waste of time and energy.... Read more

Renting a property through Connells has been a torturous experience from day one. When we viewed the property, it was remarkably unclean and there was an obvious leak from the loft that was pointed out and we were assured the property would be cleaned thoroughly and the leak looked at before moving in. We paid a holding deposit and were ignored for a week following this despite trying to contact Dale several times a day regarding referencing.
When referencing was finally complete (which was a whole battle in itself), we didn't receive the keys on the day of the tenancy beginning because the branch didn't have them, an inventory was not carried out, and the property was in the same disgusting state with food left in the cupboards, the landlords rubbish in the garage, cigarette burns on the carpets, and the aforementioned leak still causing issues.
On top of this, the boiler failed a month after moving in, and due to a "lack of funds"to replace this, we were left with no bathing facilities for 6 weeks - which Connells deem perfectly acceptable and not worthy of even a penny of compensation.
Despite many repeated attempts to be sent these, we have not seen a copy of the gas safety certificate for the property or a supposed inventory that was carried out on the property.
Most concerning, the property has no carbon monoxide detector and despite my requests to have this rectified, I have been ignored despite their legal obligation.
Don't bother making a complaint either, Connells don't investigate or follow their own complaints procedure either. A shambles of a letting agency and I wouldn't recommend anyone I like touch them if they were the last agents on Earth.... Read more

This branch has handled me terribly as a tenant. I moved in December and let Dale, the branch manager know that the previous tenant had left a huge corner sofa there via text. It is now MAY!!! and after countless calls and emails the sofa is STILL here. It’s such a massive inconvenience to get rid of and the branch refuses to do anything. They won’t call you back, which is strange because I seem to remember Dale calling me 3 times a day when I was ready to put down a deposit. I called Dale last week and he assured me that it has been passed on to head office, I asked him to CC me into an email confirming this but he didn’t because he’s a liar and a slime ball. Terrible experience as a tennant, just pay the little bit extra and get a decent letting agents that will take care of stuff like this.... Read more

Disgusting and unprofessional service from the branch manager, over valued a house by £100,000 - which agent has a house on sale for almost a year if they are working effectively? Completely negligent and out of line with market conditions poor service to myself and vendor. Compliance issues arose and the branch failed in their professional and regulatory responsibility. Raised this with branch manager and simply got abuse. She lied and continued to contradict herself. I would not recommend this branch to either a vendor or purchaser as they are completely unprofessional and will mis guide you all the way costing you time and effort - if you want to have your house on the market for over a year this is the agent for you!

We have recently just gone through the massively overwhelming experience of buying our first house and I have to say, despite the ups and downs, our experience with Connells Grantham was a good one.
Chris the Mortgage Advisor was particularly fantastic, as he held our hand through the process, help us to understand the nuances, and was absolutely priceless when it came to handling all the paperwork; mortgage, buildings/contents/salary insurance etc. He was always quick to respond to calls, and I never felt like my constant barrage of questions was irritating him (and there were a lot.)
As someone with anxiety, he helped to allay a lot of my fears and keep my head from running away with me. He also talked in simplistic ways, without sounding patronizing.
Connells themselves have also been largely good. Everyone on the team is friendly and willing to help, from requesting viewings to finally getting the keys.
Be prepared to do a bit of chasing, (especially if you are nervous like me) but if that doesn't bother you, Connells is a decent estate agent to go through this trauma with.... Read more

I would like to say that all the team at Connells (Hannah, Julie, Chris, Liam, Laura and Sam) Grantham have gone above and beyond when it comes to marketing my property, whenever I have had dealings with them at their office they have been kind, courteous and more than accommodating. I wish to ask that anyone reading these reviews consider that whilst negative reviews maybe left unfortunately this is a market that's so unpredictable because human nature is involved and we cant predict if they will buy our properties or just how quick they will go when it comes to buying our properties, we can't always be lucky. Having worked in a sales background myself I know just how fast paced and harsh things can be so I know just how demanding things can get so give these people thought before you leave your reviews, be patient with this amazing team, let them do their job, because I can assure you that this has been nothing but plain sailing from start to now to date for me....

This was originally a 5 star rating, however that was at the very start.
At the start it was incredibly professional, kept up to date exc. It all seemed to go down hill after I pulled out of the purchase of one of connells properties. I received pressure from this company as well as the solicitors involved to get a date for my buyers to move in, as it was approaching the deadline for their mortgage offer. This must have been applied over 6 weeks. But unfortunately when I had sorted a date, all of a sudden they were not ready! And infact we had to do a simultaneous exchange on the very last day of my buyers mortgage offer! My buyers were first time buyers so absolutely not their fault. They were using a help to buy isa and clearly did not have it explained to them neither by connells or the solicitor that this can be applied for around 2 months before completion, hence the hold up.
The communication was terrible.... Myself, my solicitor and the estate agent where I was buying my house from were at some points completely ignored. I left message after message that went with no response, a few emails too. My solicitor was constantly on the phone to me telling me how they could not do anything as connells and the buyers solicitor (which is connells in - house solicitor) were not responding.
These mistakes cost me a lot of money, from having to put my stuff into storage because of the pressure from connells (I didn't want to lose my sale so put the stuff in storage just incase my purchase didn't happen on time) to then having to bribe the guy I was buying off to not pull out (because connells weren't responding he was getting very upset and threatened to pull out).
Connells could list a million pound mansion for £50 tomorrow and I still wouldn't go back.
Never again.... Read more

I have made several calls to this office to find out what is going on & still no answers .

Absolute shambles! Do not fall into the trap. We put our property on the market with Connells last year. Emma our "Estate Agent" was very convincing and purasaded us to market the house with Connells. After the initial visit and after we paid for extra marketing, Emma disappeared.
Over a 6 month period we had a maximum of 6 viewings and minimal communication throughout. Our house was not published on social media as promised, nor did we receive the brouches on time. The photographer even arrived on the wrong day, without the Estate Agent, Emma promised she would attend to take photos with the photographer.
Staff at the branch were rude and aggressive. Their focus seems to be selling mortgages using outdated, sleazy sales tactics. These guys would sell their nan for commission but strangely enough have no real motavation to help sell your property. Our house funnily enough sold within 4 hours using Purple Bricks......

Simply an awful experience due to incompetance, mis-management and utter disregard of the customer. A catalogue of mistakes, errors, and the ineptitude of unsupervised inexperienced staff has left myself and my tenant inconvenienced and distressed, and myself out of pocket. The inventory was done whilst we stiil had contractors in the house, and was prejudicial to both myself and my tenant. It simply wasn't worth the paper it was written on. We have had to do own own inventory. (This cost £245.00 by the way).
Incorrect email addresses, telephone numbers, extremely poor communications and the final insult was that my tenant was erroneously directed to send the first month's rent to Connells and not to me. This took a number of days and a lot of phone calls to rectify, and my rent was forwarded to me with a huge deduction which has not been explained, and for which I have had no invoice.
My honest recommendation is that I cannot recommend this agency, at all. It has been stressful, and the whole thing just seems like sharp practice. No wonder these businesses have such a poor reputation.
Beyond disappointing, it's been awful.... Read more

I find it shocking that an estate agent like this still uses underhand tactics to try get you in front of their in-house mortgage broker.
I had a decision in principle from my own broker who I trust with all my transactions and placed an offer on a property. I was then told that I NEEDED to see their broker to make sure I was "proceedable", otherwise it may affect the likelihood of my offer being accepted. How about you speak with my broker who is an FCA regulated professional and has had a long and detailed conversation with me to understand my financial position and recommended a mortgage based on my needs?
How will having another decision in principle search done on my credit file and another hour of my life wasted benefit me in any way? TREAT. YOUR. CUSTOMERS. FAIRLY.... Read more

I found out later that these people are more concerned with trying to sell you a mortgage so as to earn you commission rather than selling you a property. I made an offer on a property but I was told that I would need to establish first that I can afford the property. That may well be fine. I told them that I already held a solid mortgage offer with my bank. The next thing I know are incessant phone calls and messages from one of these people in Peterborough trying to persuade me to take up a mortgage with someone if their choice so as to afford them a referral commission. I declined. Guess what? I was told that they would not proceed with my offer to the seller. Despite asserting repeatedly that they have received high interest in the property, however, I recognise that the property remains on the market to-date. The whole experience of pressuring me to take up a mortgage of their choice caused me concern and made me question the integrity and professionalism of these people. I am now going to avoid properties were they are involved as I find their practices dubious and un-appealing. I would rate them sub-zero if that were possible... Read more

Connells Grantham business mantras are seemingly deception, shockingly poor service & timekeeping, and theft. Throughout our tenancy they consistently failed to respond in a timely fashion to our requests, which at it's worst left us with an unsecured property (broken back door lock) for in excess of 7 weeks. Despite persistant emails & calls chasing the matter, Connells repeatedly demonstrated a complete lack of customer care, efficiency, or time management.
Now at the end of our tenancy, Connells have resorted to deception relating to the bond/deposit paid for our tenancy - though due to their complete lack of attention to detail & inability to understand basic math, we have emails to show their failings.
As we were going to be a pet household, we notified Connells at the start of our tenancy that we had 2 dogs. They told us this was fine but we would have to pay a £100 extra fee for a deep clean to be undertaken when our tenancy ended. Despite us reminding them of this on several occassions in the run up to our tenancy ending (without them questioning it)- they then claimed this was not the case and the fee was simply a £100 per pet payment, and not for a deep clean. This is just one example of the fraudulent activity they indulge in- for their explanation to ring true we would have been charged £200 extra as we stated 2 dogs on our application, but this was simply not the case - only £100 was charged. They have now tried to charge us again for a deep clean. This is a blatant lie by Connells Grantham and is a perfect example of how they treat their customers.
Sadly, the negatives surrounding this crooked letting agents do not end there. At the end of our tenancy we did leave a small number of personal possessions at the property, and both the front and back gardens needed work carrying out on them to bring them upto a reasonable condition. We fully understood and accepted this & rightfully this work should be deducted from our deposit. However, Connells went on to claim the full deposit would be withheld as the property was not clean (untrue- we left the property in a good condition ensuring all floors were cleaned, rooms were repainted to erase any marks, windows cleaned, kitchen cleaned etc.) In no way could it be justified that the £1300 deposit should be withheld in full.
Unfortunatly, Connells Grantham have been consistent in one area - that being poor customer service - so we are now pursueing them via legal means as they have shown no attempt to resolve this matter in a professional, honest, and fair manner.
There are a wide choice of lettings agents available in Grantham and I would stongly encourage anyone looking to rent a property to avoid the Connells branch like the plague. We were always very careful to conduct our contact with Connells via email soon after beginning the tenancy due to their tendancy for failure. I will now use this information to publicise my review of Connells Grantham on the net to try and save others from a similar experience. You have been warned - please don't make the same mistake that we did. Avoid.... Read more
