    Unfortunately, my experience with GSC Grays left me feeling that I had to end my instruction due to a complete loss of confidence in the way my property keys were handled. During my instruction, I discovered through an AirTag attached to my property keys that they had been taken to a private address and remained there overnight. The company acknowledged that a member of staff had accidentally taken the keys home. Whilst I accept that mistakes can happen, I consider the security of my property keys to be of paramount importance. There were other occassions over the past 2 months where the location of the the property keys were in other areas of Barnard Castle, well away from the branch, which I found very concerning as there were no viewings booked. When I asked about the security of the keys, I was initially told that the keys had not been touched since May 23rd 2026. When I showed some of the documented photograph evidence (I have many more on other occassions), they admitted the initial mistake. Since that incident, I found myself checking the location of my keys several times a day because I no longer had confidence in the procedures for safeguarding them. As a homeowner, I should never feel the need to monitor the whereabouts of my own keys. One of the questions that immediately came to mind was what would have happened had the property been burgled or suffered an emergency while the keys were at a private address overnight. I found myself wondering what the implications would have been for both GSC Grays and the member of staff who had inadvertently taken the keys home. Fortunately, nothing did happen, but I do not believe clients should ever be placed in a position where such questions need to be asked. In my view, property keys should remain securely within the branch, except when being used for an authorised viewing or other legitimate business purpose. What I found particularly disappointing was the lack of accountability from the branch's management. At no stage did I receive any communication or apology from the Branch Manager on behalf of the office for what I regarded as a serious breach of trust. A simple apology from the person responsible for managing the branch would have demonstrated that the matter was being treated with the seriousness it deserved. Instead, all communication came from a Senior Sales Negotiator. Whilst I appreciate their efforts, I believe this situation warranted ownership and accountability from the Branch Manager. As a result of the incident, I reactivated 24-hour CCTV monitoring at the property and arranged to have the locks changed for my own peace of mind. These were costs and concerns that I never expected to incur. Trust is fundamental when appointing an estate agent. You are entrusting them with access to your home, and unfortunately this incident irreparably damaged my confidence. For that reason, I exercised my contractual right to terminate my instruction by giving the agreed notice. I hope GSC Grays reviews its key security procedures and internal management processes so that future clients can have greater confidence in how their property keys are managed and in how serious issues are handled when they arise....

    We honestly can’t recommend Laura and the team at Love Property highly enough. Their approach to selling our home was a breath of fresh air and completely changed our expectations of what an estate agent should be.<br><br>From our very first meeting, Laura took the time to explain how we could present our home to achieve the best possible price and attract the right buyers. Her advice was practical, honest and incredibly valuable, and the marketing they created was unlike anything we’d seen before. It really showcased our home and generated fantastic interest.<br><br>One of the things we appreciated most was the communication. The WhatsApp updates were brilliant – after every viewing we received prompt feedback, knew exactly what buyers thought, and were kept fully informed of any interest or offers. We always felt involved and never had to chase for updates.<br><br>The team also took care of every viewing from start to finish, which made the whole process so much easier and far less disruptive. Knowing our home was being professionally presented every time gave us real confidence.<br><br>Moving house is never completely stress-free, but Laura and her team somehow managed to make us feel calm, reassured and in control throughout. Their professionalism, attention to detail and genuine care for their clients really set them apart.<br><br>If you’re thinking of selling your home, we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Love Property. Laura and her team deliver an outstanding level of service and truly go above and beyond to achieve the best possible result.<br><br>Without a doubt, this has been the best estate agency experience we’ve ever had. Thank you, Laura and the whole team, for making what could have been a stressful experience such a positive one.... Read more

    Overpromised, Underperformed and Untrustworthy – My Costly Mistake with HSD I initially listed my property with PurpleBricks in March 2025 for £535,000. After limited viewings over a three-month period, I began exploring other options and submitted an enquiry to WeBuyAnyHouse. They quickly came back with an offer of £460,000—roughly 14% below asking—claiming it would allow for a quick sale. I immediately declined, as I was not in a rush and didn’t want to take such a significant loss. Shortly after, my details were apparently passed on to House Sales Direct (HSD), seemingly a sister company, without my explicit consent. HSD came across as professional and engaging at first. They promised a 98% success rate in selling properties within 28 days, citing a strong network of pre-approved buyers and investors who could complete within 6–8 weeks. They suggested a sale price spread of £510k–£535k, assuring me they would work to get me the best price possible. It sounded promising. Based on these assurances, I decided to proceed with HSD. I withdrew my PurpleBricks listing—costing me £300—with the understanding that HSD’s investor network would accelerate the sale. But things quickly began to unravel. Despite supposedly having investors lined up, HSD said they needed to relist my property on Rightmove first. When I questioned why investors couldn’t simply view the home, the response was vague. It took nearly two weeks for them to relist, and the new asking price was £525,000. A full week passed without any communication. Then came a call recommending the price be dropped to £499,000. I was told this was “just a marketing tactic,” and that they still aimed to get me a sale within the original £510k–£535k range. But I struggled to understand how listing a property nearly £40,000 lower would achieve that. I asked again about the investors. They finally admitted the only offer received was the same £460k I'd declined weeks earlier through WeBuyAnyHouse. This was when the red flags really began to show. Why wasn’t I told this upfront? Why present an optimistic price range if their investor offer was fixed at £460k from the beginning? Why was I encouraged to pull the property from PurpleBricks if they intended to rely on the open market anyway? I could have just reduced the price there and avoided unnecessary costs and delays. Doing more research online, I found stories from others with eerily similar experiences. It appeared HSD’s real model was to attract sellers with high expectations and then drop the price, relying on open-market tactics to force a quick sale. Despite claiming not to charge commission, they would never clearly explain how they made their money. It seems they may be negotiating higher prices with buyers while offering sellers less—profiting off the gap. No transparency, no trust. Meanwhile, they knew I was paying a high mortgage on an empty property. It became clear they were hoping I’d become desperate enough to accept the same low £460k offer I had already rejected twice. In the four weeks my property was listed with them, only four viewings were arranged. Two were no-shows. Of the remaining two, one viewer stayed for just five minutes—asked no questions and didn’t even view all the rooms. It felt performative, not serious. As expected, neither viewer submitted an offer, despite supposedly being “pre-qualified and keen.” Eventually, I told HSD I wanted to withdraw the property. That’s when I was informed—shockingly—that I had unknowingly signed up for a 52-week contract, and I’d need to pay £1,500 to exit, or £999 if paid within 7 days. I wrote to them, acknowledged that they had done some work, and offered a reasonable £699 exit fee, explaining I needed to rent the home out due to financial strain. They refused and insisted on full payment. I paid the £999 immediately—but it still took a full week and several chasers before they finally removed the property from Rightmove. By the end of the ordeal, it was clear I was no longer a priority for them. In summary: Do I regret choosing HSD? Absolutely. Would I recommend them to someone looking for a fair, transparent, and professional house sale experience? No. If your only goal is to sell quickly and you don’t care about value, they might work for you. But if you want to sell your home at a decent price with a partner you can trust, I strongly advise staying away from HSD.... Read more

The refund was not processed on time, forcing me to chase it daily with no proper communication or urgency. It was only returned after a full week of constant follow-ups.<br><br>Although the money was eventually refunded, the way this was handled was unacceptable, stressful, and shows a clear lack of professionalism and respect for tenants’ time and money.

    Please stay clear of this company. They are highly unprofessional and have no desire to stand by their own terms and work in a smooth and timely manner. They do not stay updated on any progress when working through a purchase of a property and do not act as if they want to get to completion within their own 60-day terms. I had two occasions on the same property when a mortgage valuation was booked in, and the Jack Senior at Let Property assured me the first would be completed. Once no one turned up at the property to allow access for the valuation, it had to be rebooked, and when I spoke to Jack again he assured me 100% someone would be there. But again, when the valuer arrived at the property no one was there to allow access. Also during the process it would take days, sometimes a week, to get a simple bit of info or just a return call from Jack or anyone at Let Property. They set 60-day completion terms, which I was happy to work to and moved fast on my side, but when they constantly delayed things, it got to the point nothing was moving foward. On top of this, they take a reservation deposit and will not refund it has we are past the 60-day terms even with the delays being their own fault. I would highly recommend staying clear and using any other company. I have found Pure Investor to be very professional, helpful and hardworking to make sure both the seller and buyer are happy and continue to get things moving forward.... Read more
