23rd Mar 2026 (6 weeks ago)We worked with this agency during our home purchase process in 2025. Throughout what is already a stressful experience, there were far too many unknowns left unaddressed. More concerning was the consistent gap between what was communicated to us verbally and what ultimately came to fruition. Beyond the factual inconsistencies, the manner in which we were dealt with - both in face-to-face meetings and over email - was dismissive and lacking in constructive communication. We did not feel respected as clients, and the tone used toward us on multiple occasions fell well below the standard of professionalism we would expect from anyone in this industry.

23rd Apr 2026 (13 days ago)Debbie really helped, top star Debbie was; she managed to get the ball rolling when the process between solicitors had slowed down. Can't honestly rate her enough
30th Apr 2026 (6 days ago)Hannah was extremely helpful and efficient. She responded quickly to all my requests and dealt with all property issues in good time for a new tenant to be in place.
19th Apr 2026 (17 days ago)Two items to note: entry intercom not working and bathroom door veneer appears to be damaged. Photo attached. Overall, an excellent , friendly service with good communication; please accept this as our signature. Thank You
13th Dec 2025 (21 weeks ago)Selling the house turned out to be the easy part! The sales progression was long and tedious (due to other parties in the chain) but Kaleigh was an absolute superstar. Keeping us regularly updated and going above and beyond to ensure a smooth transaction. Thank you to you and Eve for all your hard work.
14th Mar 2026 (8 weeks ago)Connells are a fantastic estate agents to use. They gave me a great interest rate and their service was first class. My flat sold in no time and everything went through smoothly. I would highly recommend using them. I spoke with an agent called Glenda who was extremely helpful and friendly

19th Apr 2026 (17 days ago)I would give them no stars if I could. There was a long list of issues that arose after a few years of using them as a letting agent. They used to be a very reliable small business but it appeared that they became greedy and couldn't manage the amount of work that they had taken on. During one tenancy, they allowed the couple that were renting my flat to sublet to another couple. Both couples caused significant damage to the property and left it in a disgusting state which Property Book told me was something to be expected. They didn't undertake any inspections during the tenancy. They allowed the gas safety certificate to run out. They took 48 hours to inform me of a serious problem with the boiler leaking leaving the tenants without heating or hot water. They then refused to travel to the flat to allow the emergency call out into the flat because they were in the Mersea office and couldn't be bothered to drive to Colchester. They charged me for 'repairs' but couldn't explain what repairs they were or which company had done them. During another tenancy, they lied about the tenants that moved in as their details and the amount of people who were renting the flat were completely different to who I had agreed to. I didn't mind but I couldn't understand how they could tell me that a couple were moving in but then it was a family of 5 who did. They released the deposit back to one tenant without providing any of the evidence to the DPS. They refused to give me access to the DPS account despite being asked on multiple occasions. I had to go to the Property Ombudsman and they were surprised at the compensation that Property Book offered me. Lastly, Lee who dealt with the letting couldn't even spell my name right. I'm sure there's more I can't remember.
15th Apr 2026 (21 days ago)Can not recommend Connor Cook enough from start to finish for sorting our new mortgage he has been extremely helpful in the process & we are extremely grateful for all his help Thank you Connor ??????????????????

16th Mar 2026 (7 weeks ago)Thank you to Nick. We asked for a valuation and Nick was able to do it straight away. Within hours he called us with the valuation explaining exactly why it was that price and then explained the process / options and gave us time to work through the the best route to take. An absolute 5* star service and I would not hesitate to contact them to sell my property. Thank you Nick absolutely great service.

10th Dec 2025 (21 weeks ago)My case was a lengthy one as there were works required following surveys and the team at Harris and Wood were always in contact, offering support and advice throughout. They also kept my buyers in place from start to finish which was circa 10 Months so was really grateful for that.

4th Mar 2026 (9 weeks ago)Just want to say a massive thank you to both Holly and Nick. They have been absolutely fantastic and have really helped with our purchase of our house. They have been so patient with us, more than accommodating and fitting us in such late notice for a viewing which I really appreciated! I would recommend to both buyers and sellers. They are genuinely lovely people! Thank you both again for everything!
28th Apr 2026 (8 days ago)Lewis at Grace was absolutely fantastic with our move. Communication was absolutely superb and everything was handled efficiently and professionally. The whole process was made very simple and I'd highly recommend using Grace for any property requirements.
31st Mar 2026 (5 weeks ago)Fine & Co have been a pleasure to work with during what became a lengthy and torturous process. If it hadn’t been for the fabulous Rachele Winn the chain would have collapsed several times over. Rachele, alone, relentlessly kept in touch with all parties, chivvying and chasing up loose ends, liaising with incompetent online conveyancers and ensuring that all sales were completed. Her tenacity, professionalism and cheerful approach are second to none. Well done and thanks Rachele.
17th Apr 2026 (19 days ago)Zenna and Chloe at Boydens in Frinton-On-Sea did a fantastic job of organising our viewing and purchase of a lovely beach hut in Frinton-On-Sea. Would definitely recommend their services to friends.
7th Nov 2025 (5 mo. ago)Excellent support and service from start to finish, would highly recommend.

6th May 2026 (0 days ago)The process has been remarkably quick and efficient from receiving the Get Agent information on the 3-5 top performing local estate agents, to selecting our Personal Estate agent who has excellent knowledge of the local environment and current sales values. She supported our presentation of the home and her pre-publicity and social media "video teasers" were a highly useful marketing tool. We had received an offer before going to market due to her knowledge of local buyers. We did however wait to open market and have had an offer within 10days!
14th Apr 2026 (22 days ago)We haven't had to go through the nightmare of moving house for over forty years but we survived the emotional roller coaster this time round thanks to Stanton Hockett. Not easy for two eighty year olds I must admit who simply want to go live near their daughter up north! We approached the move with trepidation but their approach from the outset was totally re-assuring and empathetic. Tom started the ball rolling with his no fuss approach and we then graduated to the big guns, Brad & Gavin, after they found us a young couple to buy our treasured family home. They might have been a dating agency so suited to us were our young buyers. As apparently often occurs our journey through the legal processes to exchange and completion took us between peaks of elation to valleys of frustrated despair and back again but they were there to support us when we needed it. Thank you Tom and Lewis, thank you Gavin and most of all thank you Brad for your impeccable service to us in the sales progression stage. We are on our way now and feeling a whole lot better about our future.
29th Mar 2026 (5 weeks ago)All Staff helpful. No patronising. Supportive. Patient. A good rapport.
23rd Oct 2023 (2 years ago)I’d like to say a big thank you to Rachel, Harry and Steve for all your support with my sale and onward purchase. They were friendly, helpful and went above and beyond. I would highly recommend Temme English.
27th Jan 2026 (14 weeks ago)Mel, was amazing from start to the end! She listened to us and found us our dream home! She helped so much as first time buyers and helped us get everything in place and from viewing to exchange was 6 weeks. Highly recommend REMAX!

27th Apr 2026 (9 days ago)I highly recommend Harris and Wood. Staff are professional throughout with regular updates. They have helped with selling of my property with ease and when viewing properties they have for sale, their expertise outshines others. The team have passion and drive and cannot fault anything within the company. When dealing with other estate agents through this whole process, Harris and Wood's team definitely stands out and would 100% chose them again in future. Many thanks to everyone.
3rd Mar 2026 (9 weeks ago)Marks and mann have been exceptional in terms of their knowledge and customer service. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who is looking for a good estate agent.
