First time buyer purchasing through Paul at Winkworth, Leigh on Sea.
Paul and the Winkworth team have been fantastic from start to finish, providing a first class service and have been very accommodating throughout.
Very professional, friendly and understanding - the whole Winkworth team were always willing to help.
Would highly recommend Paul and Winkworth.

We recently had help from Helen to move into our new home. The whole transition from start to finish was seamless, she was so helpful and made the whole process so easy. The online portal was handy because it meant we could sign everything online making it a very quick process, it also ment on moving day we only had to collect the keys which allowed us to get moved in much earlier than anticipated.

We bought our bungalow through Paul at Winkworth, Leigh on Sea.
We have had first class service throughout all our dealings with him.
Very professional, understanding and willing to help. We've dealt with a number of estate agents on our search, the majority of whom we couldn't recommend but Paul broke the mould. For this reason we would certainly highly recommend Winkworth.

Winkworth, Leigh on Sea were fantastic. They were extremely helpful to us first time buyers navigate the whole process, providing very helpful recommendations. They were extremely helpful in allowing us multiple visits, and at short notice with staff away on holidays. Even after the purchase they helped us with further enquiries.
Highly recommend Winkworth, Leigh on sea for a friendly and stress-free agent.

We recently had help from Helen to rent a flat in the Leigh area. It was a really lovely and easy experience from the beginning of our interest to completion. Helen’s approach was perfect and what we liked was the speed of completion to rent our flat. This was helped by the portal they use where you can sign all contracts and docs and also the inventory. Helen was very accommodating with our request to move as quickly as possible! We definitely recommend!

A seamless experience from viewing to moving in, Helen was amazing and super responsive to all emails, she really made the experience super smooth. Also the online portal for signing and submitting all docs meant that on the move in day all I had to do was quickly grab the keys so completely sped everything up. Would recommend for sure!

I used Winkworth as a Letting Agent and had good service for the last five years marred somewhat by Covid. All of the letting staff were very helpful.
On deciding to sell I chose to use Winkworth for this. Paul Benge has done a great job in marketing the property with good communication and it sold pretty quickly.
So altogether, a good choice for both managing rental and selling properties.

Recently completed the sale of our large family home. Winkworth weren't the agent we chose first- we naively went with 2 other agents that gushed more when they viewed the house but when the other agents had failed to sell, we went to Paul at Winkworth. He seemed very good at managing the process after the viewing- negotiating low ball offers up to something that was acceptable and we sold very quickly through Winkworth having failed for a year with 2 other agencies.
We have also used these as lettings agents for several years now and have found them to be far better than any other companies we have worked with. Honest, hard working and very professional.
Highly recommend

Fantastic experience using Winkworth in Leigh-on-Sea for my recent move into my new home. Special mention to Helen in the lettings team who was incredible through out. If Helen wasn't available for any reason, I was always well looked after by another member of the team.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Winkworth to anyone buying, selling or renting a property.

Helen at Winkworth has been a pleasure to deal with. She is super friendly, always replies to our emails quickly and has supplied all the information that we have needed. We don’t have any concerns about dealing with the rest of the team during the duration of our tenancy, and cannot thank Helen enough for making it such an easy process for us.

We were delighted with the services provided by Paul during our recent house sale. He was very thorough in following through with all necessary parties in bringing our house sale to a conclusion, our solicitors were also highly complementary of the service he and Winkworth were providing throughout the process. Whilst the sale took longer to complete than we would have originally anticipated, political and financial events had their part to play which were somewhat unprecedented. We would certainly recommend Paul and his team at Winkworth Leigh on Sea based on our experience.

I have just rented a property through Winkworth and I have to say it has been a completely thorough and professional service. Helen Barker has looked after me throughout and responds quickly, gets any issues dealt with and has been so accommodating with going round to the property prior to moving in. I contacted numerous agents prior to finding this property and they were all appalling to deal with, to the point you are lucky to even get a call back when asking just to view a property. A good agent is rare to find and this is by far the best agent I have ever dealt with.

Words can't describe the excellent service I've received from Winkworth and Helen Barker in particular. This is my first time renting a flat, however Helen Barker made the whole process feel like a walk in the park. Every question I had was replied promptly and I was updated quickly with the progress of my application and eventual move in. From the moment of viewing the property to moving in I have felt welcomed and taken care off. I would recommend Winkworth Leigh-on-Sea Estate Agents a 100 times over

James and Paul at Winkworth managed the process of my wife and I selling our house end to end and we honestly couldn't be happier. They always kept us in the loop and worked incredibly hard to make sure the process was as smooth as possible. I would recommend the whole team at Winkworth to anyone especially James and Paul. A special mention to Mark too who we dealt with on a few occasions and found to be equally lovely.

My experience of Winkworth’s was brilliant. So different to other estate agents- helpful, responsive, not pushy and communicative. James Blomfield in particular was exceptional- his communication, manner and efficiency together with the fact that he seems to really want to help clients means that he was a pleasure to deal with. I would not hesitate to deal with James again and in fact wish that he could give training to other estate agents. Absolutely brilliant.

Paul and James created a very friendly supportive environment which reassured us when the long chain lapsed into inactivity. They were always there to chase up the relevant weak link, at any moment in time, and expedite relevant matters. There was never any hostility with other estate agents, which we noticed, when seeking a new home with other agents.

Anne - Marie at think property is literally the hardest working and most pro active estate agent I’ve ever met. She went above and beyond and almost single handedly dragged the purchase of our dream house over the line. In a time of difficult, tricky solicitors and less than helpful estate agents, her and all the team were a breath of fresh air. Thankyou!

We recently bought a property using this agency.
They were extremely helpful from start to finish. As with all property purchases, we did experience delays however, they were always chasing the solicitors on our behalf which made the whole experience less stressful for us.
We had a couple of things we wanted to have repaired within the property before we were happy to progress and they made sure the matter was sorted very quickly.
Overall would definitely use this agency again and highly recommend.
