Dealing with Foresters has been a nightmare. They are willing to ignore basic safety requirements and take short cuts. They are untrustworthy and incompetent. Avoid at all costs.

I just purchased my first property through Foresters and they were extremely friendly, helpful and professional throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend them to anyone buying or selling a property!

Used foresters to sell my flat, as with all leasehold sales many ups and downs but the only people keeping me updated and pushing things along were Foresters.
Phil was so helpful and on the phone/email with every update and always ready to answer my questions.
Can't recommend highly enough and would definitely use again.

Due to unfortunate circumstances I had to sell my house and I'm so pleased I entrusted this to Foresters. Pre sale, they gave me lots of time and advice, and when the time came they dealt with everything quickly and efficiently. Viewings were well managed and they found me the ideal buyer at the right price, all I could have hoped for.
And then they really stepped up a gear and spent a great deal of time and effort dealing with all parties in the chain and really helping to piece the whole transaction together. The help they gave me with my onward purchase was invaluable and saved me a lot of time and trouble.
The whole team, but particularly Casey and Phil, have been great from start to finish and I really couldn't recommend them more highly. Thank you, Foresters, for all your help.

Excellent experience with Foresters. Thanks to Phil for being so professional from start to finish. Very prompt to respond to our queries and great communication, particularly during the conveyancing period. Thanks also to the wider team, including the photographer and the office support. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Foresters!

Absolute legends, Nicola particularly.
The sale was handled with the utmost professionalism and Nicola was “gritty” when it came to negotiating on my behalf.
Thank you guys

I found Foresters Estate Agent very helpful. My mum's bungalow took a long time to go through for reasons out of the estate agents control. Phil kept me and my brother regularly informed on the progress of the bungalow.

Fantastic experience with Foresters, both on the sales and lettings side - their service is absolutely brilliant!
All the team are so lovely, helpful and friendly, and return calls/emails are always very quick I will recommend them to everyone I know.

Very short staffed cannot take on any more business so we were informed by Toby, which is just as well because the last time we used Foresters they failed us. Thought we would give them a second chance but not meant to be. No staff to attend to business means you’re better off taking your business elsewhere.

Thank you so much to Phil who has guided us through the fastest sale this century! We knew we had a tight time frame and Phil has been incredible with getting everything done. No question was too odd and Phil was great at keeping us up to date with everything. I don’t think we are ever going to want to sell our new home, but if we do, we will be coming back to Foresters!

Phil and his team at Foresters stood out from the start as the best estate agents in Heathfield. We've used several, and it was by far the smoothest and nicest experience we've had!
We had a simple chain that got tricky really fast but they managed to pick up the phone, chase bits regularly and email back promptly! (even during staff annual leave)
Communication and the friendly nature of everyone were the main reasons we got the chain over the line! Thank you from both of us!

Nicola thank you. We had all but given up on the sale of house until your estate agency was recommended to us. The fact that I am messaging from my new home says it all. Your determination to actively sell and the level of communication is commendable. It was a pleasure to deal with a true professional, who is honest good or bad. Thank you once again.

I think that we have the record for Phil’s lengthiest case! That said, none of this was of Foresters making- rather buyers further down the chain. We had the most patient buyer for our lovely late mother’s bungalow and, after nearly 2 1/2 years , we have finally completed. Phil patiently and calmly guided us through the whole process. His efforts to ‘chase down the line’ were above and beyond. He communicated each step clearly, was a great sounding block, showed empathy and understanding of our situation and is to be applauded for his tenacity.
As a family we have used Foresters several times over the years and indeed Mike Fordham was instrumental in selling our family home when Mum decided to finally downsize. It is fitting that Foresters take credit for completing the last sale.
Phil was our main point of contact, but everyone in the office knew us, were appraised of our situation and always offered advice, passing on messages which were promptly actioned.
They say that undertaking a house sale is one of the most stressful things to face in life and I wouldn’t disagree. As an executor I wanted to represent my siblings to the best of my ability. Phil quietly lead us through the process and eventually we achieved our goal. Thank you Foresters, especially Phil, and we wish our buyer every happiness in their new home.

As an employee for the last three years I am writing this review from a different, but equally important, perspective as it demonstrates why Foresters as a family business, have been selling and letting houses successfully for over 40 years.
Foresters is a really nice place to work, with lovely people and is a great example of a good employer.
Working hard as a team Foesters care about the people they deal with on a daily basis, in all aspects of people selling, buying and letting houses, which can sometimes be a stressful and emotional time for the clients.
During this process Foresters are also mindful about the well being and welfare of their staff. It's fair to say there are a few hectic days!
To summarise... (Lucy will 'woof' her approval! ) Happy staff, happy selling and letting!

On day of completion had been contacted by solicitors and other estate agency to say everything’s done, waited ages for foresters and nothing had to chase up ourselves as we Litterally had no where to go with all our stuff, get to the property to find previous owner had left lots of old stuff in loft garden down side of bungalow, estate agents hadn’t made sure property was empty, someone popped by to have a look but that’s all nothing was done about it and also forgetting are welcome package which we never recieved, wouldn’t Reccomend

Exceptional service from start to finish, couldn't have asked for more. Professional, committed, knowledgeable, empathetic, supportive and calm in the face of very trying circumstances during an extremely protracted sale. The whole team were great, always knew what was happening and Nicola was an absolute star, always keeping us informed and assured and going way beyond the call of duty.
Thank you, the best estate agent experience I have ever had, and there have been a few!

We sold our house through Foresters and couldn't recommend them highly enough for their amazing customer service and efficiency . Phil was compassionate, understanding, incredibly helpful and couldn't do enough to re assure us during our sale and if we ever went back to market we wouldn't hesitate in using Foresters and hopefully Phil.
Highly recommended and hugely grateful for their work.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Phil from Foresters Estate Agent, and I can't recommend him enough! Phil's dedication and excellent communication made the entire experience a breeze.
Despite some sales falling through, Phil kept me updated every step of the way. His consistent and timely communication helped ease any concerns I had during the process. Phil's commitment to keeping me informed was truly commendable.
In the end, thanks to Phil's hard work and perseverance, we successfully reached our goal. I couldn't be happier with the service I received from Foresters Estate Agent, and I especially want to express my gratitude to Phil for his outstanding efforts.
If you're looking for a reliable estate agent who will keep you informed and work tirelessly to ensure a successful outcome, I highly recommend Phil at Foresters Estate Agent. You won't be disappointed!
Thank you, Phil, for your exceptional service!

The whole team at Foresters have been excellent, very friendly and responsive, nothing too much trouble, but my particular thanks go to Nicola Bowler who guided us through a very difficult and complex sale over several months to a successful conclusion. Very professional with a personal touch and with her client's best interest clearly at heart. A pleasure to do business with and I would highly recommend.

Foresters were outstanding during my elderly mothers' recent bungalow sale. Nicola, who dealt with the sale, could not have been more helpful, she always returned calls if she was out of the office, chased things up for us, kept us informed all the time about progress and was always cheerful and positive in her approach, she definitely went over and above what we had expected. The other staff I spoke to, Toby and Adrian, are equally very friendly and helpful. House buying and selling is a very stressful time for anyone and I would not hesitate to recommend Foresters as the best estate agents we have ever dealt with.

We have used Foresters both for buying our previous property and then at a later stage for selling. We have been delighted with the professional and efficient service provided, particularly during this difficult and challenging pandemic. We found all the staff at Foresters both helpful and supportive and particularly we would like to mention the professionalism of Nicola and Toby. We have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Foresters.

Foresters provided a truly excellent service from start to finish. Whatever problems and frustrations arose with prospective buyers, Nicola dealt with them quickly and efficiently, going above and beyond the call of duty. She kept me well informed, always gave good advice, and always had a calm pragmatic approach. If Nicola was unavailable other team members were always up to date on the sale and able to help. I wholeheartedly recommend them.

Fantastic estate agent that is both professional and efficient.
Family have been lucky to have bought two houses through Foresters over the past 6 months and on both occasions they have been exemplary.
If only more estate agents were like Foresters, moving home would not be so stressful!
A special mention to Adrian who is a credit to the profession.
If you are thinking of selling your property, Foresters should be the estate agent of choice.
