22nd Apr 2026 (8 weeks ago)Kate was nothing short of absolutely fantastic in our whole purchase process! She was always polite, courteous and very professional, always willing to help, and gave us regular communication throughout the purchase, which we very much appreciated. She's so friendly and we'd love to stay in touch and update her on what we do with the house updates.
9th Jun 2026 (9 days ago)Absolutely couldn’t have been dealt with anymore than these guys did start to finish Catherine and the CJ team guided through a tricky sale. The contact was unbelievable and without doubt we sell and buy another one through Carter Jonas. If I could give 10 stars I would
31st May 2026 (18 days ago)The team at Blenkin and Co have been efficient and throughtful throughout, and their level of communication is extremely high. Especially impressed by the quality of the viewings where are assigned viewing agent knew our property in and out, and was able to guage interest extremely effecitvely
8th Mar 2026 (15 weeks ago)Our initial contact was James and was hugely positive. From James we progressed to and were helped by Katherine, Holly and Grace before being assisted by George. From the point of sale on, we were almost exclusively in Claire’s capable hands and she was our contact through completion. Our first experience with R M English was in 2008. Its happy outcome then was our justification for using them again and this one too has been a pleasant experience. Thank you all.

17th Aug 2022 (3 years ago)Frustrating at times, but got the job done. Would use a local agent next time instead of international.
13th Mar 2026 (14 weeks ago)Would highly recommend Bannisters. Fantastic service from start to finish especially by Ian.
15th Apr 2024 (2 years ago)Beautiful. Very clean beach. The best restaurant for fish ???? & chips in Yorkshire. Sullivans.
25th Sep 2025 (8 mo. ago)We rented our first house with this agency and were thoroughly impressed. Rachel was so helpful and genuinely considered all of our requests throughout the process. Highly recommend their professional and attentive service

1st Jun 2026 (17 days ago)From the start of the process Ellaina has been so incredibly helpful and kept me up to date through every step of the process. This was my first time buying and I couldn’t have been more grateful for the support!
15th Mar 2026 (14 weeks ago)Really helpful staff. Happy to answer my many queries about property in the area. Sent me the details as properties became available before even needing to ask. Highly recommended
8th Dec 2023 (2 years ago)Professional team. Genuinely helpful and knowledgeable. There is a personal touch apparent which is absent in so many modern letting agents. Additionally, there was not one cocksure young individual in a skinny fit, shiny suit. Excellent service and a genuine pleasure to deal with. Thank you to Nick and all the team for their help and patience.
13th May 2026 (5 weeks ago)Most knowledgeable of the York market of the agents I met with. Felt Ashtons understood that my property was unique in the market place and not just 'another flat'.
8th Jun 2026 (10 days ago)Claire in lettings is absolutely fabulous. So reassuring and helpful. Will definitely be back for all my estate agent needs!
15th May 2026 (5 weeks ago)Excellent service from start to finish.Nothing is too much trouble for Charlie, Sue and Jay and they helped to make a stressful time so much easier.We would recommend them without hesitation. Pam and Mike Dowkes

4th Jun 2026 (14 days ago)So rare to find an estate agent that actually seems to care about the people involved. The service felt genuinely personal, and I was kept informed at every stage of the process. Whenever any issues arose, they were quick to respond, resolve problems efficiently, and keep everything moving forward. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for an estate agent who truly cares about their clients and goes the extra mile.
10th Apr 2026 (10 weeks ago)Really happy
22nd Oct 2025 (7 mo. ago)Useless company. Don't trust what they say
5th Jun 2026 (13 days ago)Unfortunately, our experience was disappointing. We encountered repeated issues with attention to detail, including property photographs requiring multiple rounds of correction due to obvious editing errors and eventually having to re-photograph the property. On more than one occasion, viewings were not properly prepared, curtains were left closed in a bedroom and there was confusion over access despite key locations having been provided, . We were also made aware that a viewer was left waiting outside because the agent arrived late to the appointment. While the manager responded professionally and apologised when concerns were raised, the overall experience left us feeling that greater organisation, communication and attention to detail were needed.
15th Jul 2025 (11 mo. ago)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.

9th Jun 2026 (9 days ago)Rob has been great in dealing with the sale of our house. His communication is always accurate and timely and his ability to make the house sale personable is good. He knows the local market very well and his social media presence is strong which adds value to his ability to get viewings and ultimately sales.
31st May 2026 (18 days ago)I have to say I haven’t felt so comfortable buying a house knowing that we had someone like Ashleigh running the show. Everything was under control, from viewing our new property, then having the expert knowledge to know the target audience for our old house. Communication was 5 star, daily updates via the phone & WhatsApp groups. She had her foot on the pedal at all times when it came to dealing with solicitors, getting the house sale and purchase pushed through within 3 months. Highly recommend to anyone and everyone.
