I Sold my flat and bought my new home with ashtons (NLW). Simon and Bethann were fantastic! Great communication, they always kept me updated and went above an beyond to ensure that everything was dealt with quickly an efficiently. I would highly recommend Ashtons! And would definitely use again.

We sold our old home and also bought our new one through Ashton’s in Newton. Amy, Beth-Ann and Simon were incredible throughout and supported us through every step of the process from valuation and sale, through to purchase and completion. The team kept us consistently up to date (not something you get with every estate agent!), and worked through any challenges with us to ensure a timely resolution and successful move. Would definitely recommend to anyone moving locally and would use again. Fantastic and professional team - thank you!

Just finished the moving process to Welwyn Garden City (for my mother) and cannot fault the service received by Ashtons and particularly Sam Ward who was excellent. I think our move was relatively straightforward but any slight issues we had were dealt with promptly and professionally. I highly recommend Ashtons.

Absolutely Great experience. Verity and Emily have been very helpful from the start till close of the deal. Extremely helpful, thorough and professional throughout the process. Buying a house was a very major milestone and we're glad we had the right support.

A huge thank you to Jonathan Searles and Sam Ward and their teams. Both went the extra mile on our sale and purchase. Understanding our situation and communicating on a regular basis helped us through to completion. I would recommend Ashton's without hesitation.

Ashton’s were extremely friendly, helpful and professional throughout the process. Emily and Verity kept me updated throughout and answered any and all questions and queries promptly. Being a first time buyer can be a daunting process and despite the delays due to Covid, they kept me informed and updated throughout!

The Ashtons team were brilliant throughout the process of our purchase of a property in Welwyn Garden City. The team were very personable and professional. We particularly dealt with Verity, she was great and very responsive. Couldn’t have asked for more.

Recently bought a house through Ashtons. I have to say they go above and beyond with their customer service. Very responsive at all times to communication and they were able to deal with difficult issues that will inevitably arise during the process of buying a property.

We went with Ashton's as they provided the flats we were looking for. The service was great and Verity did extremely well in chasing our own solicitors to getting the deal over the line in the quickest time possible. Great work from the team and would highly recommend going to this estate agent for buying a property.

They only listen when there is a contract to sign. The follow up service will ALWAYS fall in deaf hears. They become ghosts. Nice property but the service is INEXISTENT. Don't hold your breath.

Highly professional and a class act. From the very beginning, Ashtons made the entire process of buying a house and letting out our old property swift, effortless and stress free. Huge thanks in particular to Jennie and Jamie who are absolute superstars!

Really grateful to Alex and Jamie at the St. Albans office, their energy is just awesome. Being a property investor requires people who understand your vision and would work hard to get where you want and Alex and Jamie worked tirelessly to get me the deal I wanted. Your professionalism is great. I am one happy customer.

House buying is often stressful anyway, but Ashtons made it much much worse. We were constantly misled and had unreasonable levels of pressure put on us (eg .being routinely told we were holding up the chain when it was their client, not us.). I've previously bought a house where the sellers didn't move out on completion. I would rather repeat that than ever deal with Ashtons again.
