Dreadful company; unscrupulous, dishonest and arrogant. They’re only there to serve themselves. Untrustworthy and will not treat you fairly. Buyers and renters beware!... Read more

Stonegate is a small independent estate agency and property management business. I have used them in both roles and the service has been impeccable. Their knowledge of the market in Hitchin is second to none and advice has been invaluable What's more the right hand ( sales) always knows what the left hand (lettings) is doing which makes for excellent communication....

I've been renting a property in Hitchin managed by Stonegate Estates for the last six months and would highly recommend Stonegate Estates if you are moving to the area. Christine, Rebecca and the whole team provide a great service and are friendly, communicative and efficient in responding and resolving our concerns and questions as tenants. The move-in process was seamless and over the last six months we have felt supported by Stonegate Estates as they continue to manage the property to a high standard. Thank you Stonegate Estates!...

Excellent from start to finish. Cannot recommend Stonegates enough. Smooth, easy transaction throughout and they showed compassion and immense kindness due to the sale being a probate sale.

The service I have received within the last six months with stone gate have been impeccable. They are always at hand for anything we have needed especially during this weekend. Unfortunately, due to my own mistakes, we had an emergency and within 10 minutes of a phone call they were at my door helping me sort everything and Christine definitely went above and beyond. I could not recommend their services enough.... Read more

The team at Stonegates have really exceeded my expectations as I have gone through the process of selling a property as part of an estate in Letchworth. James, Keith, Anne, et al have provided a professional and friendly service and have offered the right advice at the right time to get the property viewed and sold. I’m out of the area, based over 2 hours away, so it has been an enormous help that Stonegates have been able to offer up sound advice about the local market and also keep an eye on the house, doing regular checks whilst it was empty. Pleasure to deal with. Thoroughly recommend.... Read more

We recently bought & sold using Stonegate Estate Agents therefore we are speaking with first hand knowledge of the whole process. A first class professional & friendly Estate Agent who doesn't try to over sell the product or the service however always tells as it is. Not a national organisation & being local the team's knowledge & dedication regarding the area, local amenities, prices & pricing is second to none. If you're thinking of moving home, for your peace of mind in what can be a worrying & frantic time, James & the whole Stonegate's team is the place to place your business & trust.... Read more

We couldn't recommend Stonegate Estates and Christine enough. Christine helped us every step of the way and accommodated our every need which was particularly helpful as we were moving from Bristol. We are absolutely delighted with the house she helped us find. Communication was both helpful and quick and the house was finished to a fantastic standard. A great experience so far and the best estate agents I've come across yet. A great start to our move to Hitchin. Thank you, Christine.... Read more

I’ve been with Stonegate for years. I have had several properties to rent in various towns over the years with various agents. This letting agent is the best of them all. Christine at Stonegates takes the worry and effort out of being a landlord because of her professionalism and care. She also has enormous knowledge of problems that can arise and how to solve them . Christine will make every effort to relieve the landlord of any concerns with the tenants. I cannot speak highly of her.... Read more

Do not go near these people!!!!!! Horrendous experience with condescending, infantilising, rude staff who are only in it to make money. Christine Milton is an over bearing controlling infantilising nightmare and should not be allowed as much control as she is allowed! James Beard will say lovely things on the phone but is actually useless and doesn't care in the slightest beyond his fat paycheck. Reported them to trading standards and the property ombudsman. They're honestly the worst company I've ever had to deal with.... Read more

We used Stonegate Estates to sell my late Father In Laws house in Hitchin.

James used his experience to smooth the way to a successful conclusion. We would highly recommend Stonegate Estates, especially if you are looking for genuine personal service.... Read more

Prime location in town centre with newly decorated interior and still couldn't sell it. Other estate agents were selling properties either further from the center or the train station without any issue. Constant lack of communication from Anne + James and I had to chase every time. When I chased they seemed to blame the market or the potential buyers. There always seem to be an excuse and it's never them. I sold my property with another agent within a WEEK in the end and there was a pain in the rear as they thought they introduced the buyer and wanted a cut?... Read more

Due to an unexpected job change, we made the difficult decision to rent out our recently renovated 'forever home' to relocate 180 miles away from Hitchin. It was really important that we found an estate agent that we could trust to properly manage our property. Stonegates have been absolutely that and more! Responsive, knowledgeable and reassuring. As well as super fast acquisition of really great tenants. At every stage things have been made fast and easy for us, and we feel our needs have been represented and met at every opportunity. 10/10 in every area! Fully recommend!... Read more

Stonegates are absolutely appalling. The house has been on the market for nearly a year and they only (just about) managed to achieve one offer, which fell through. The fact that other houses of similar size have sold ever since (through different agents), adds to my irritation. They are incapable of being impartial and avoid contact when updates are requested. I would’ve done a much better job selling out of the back of my vehicle or from a backstreet alleyway. Don’t bother unless you want to waste your time. There are far better and more competent estate agents in Hitchin.... Read more

Stonegate estate agents are far from helpful, my experience with this company is frankly a nightmare, they didn't seem to know how to discribe the property, they put a total of 3 prospective buyers through the door in 8 weeks, dispite being a desirable property. When I changed agents immediately I had more people being in 2 weeks than stonegate had in the time with them, there reaction was to attempt to bully me which didn't work, so they put there Cheif bully DERIC BLACK on totme with threats of legal action, this was followed by solicitors letters, the place is a nightmare stay well clear, or you too may suffer....
