GoogleI have bought several properties from Balgores and being in the property industry myself I can appreciate a good agent.
Special thanks to Arif for selling me my new home and for keeping a clear line of communication throughout the process.
He never declined my call and went above and beyond to ensure all of our additional queries were passed on to the seller.
Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Arif and the Team to anyone that is looking to sell.

GoogleWe have just purchased our familyβs first home through Balgores, and there is a good reason why they are an award-winning estate agent.
From start to finish, they provided an exceptional level of service and handled every detail professionally and efficiently. A special thank you to Michael, whose professionalism, dedication and excellent communication helped coordinate matters with the seller and ensured the entire process progressed as smoothly as possible.
We are truly grateful to Michael and his team for all their hard work and support throughout our purchase. I highly recommend Balgores to anyone looking to buy or sell a property in the Brentwood area.ππππ

GoogleI instructed this estate agent for a tenant-find service and the service fell well below expected standards throughout the entire process. I would not recommend Balgores Gravesend at all.
From the outset, I was not kept properly informed about the progress of my property. I had to call for updates on a number of occasions, as communication from Daniella was not proactive. Considering the level of fees charged for a tenant-find service, I would have expected regular updates without having to chase. I was also asked to provide my own photographs of my property for their advertisement. Given the fee level, I really think professional photography should have been included as a standard, rather than placing this responsibility on the landlord. Clearly they're lazy and unbothered.
The process also felt unnecessarily rushed, with limited opportunity to ask questions or properly review steps before decisions were pushed through. The focus was more on completing the tenancy quickly so they can get paid. There were also inconsistencies and rigidity around documentation requirements. Despite having valid electrical reports and a recently completed gas safety certificate, issues were raised over minor administrative details such as a document not showing my legal name. For the gas safety, on top of paying for the report I had to pay for a separate call out for them to come and fix a small issue on the boiler which wasn't material. My insurers informed me that on a number of occasions the gas safety passed but Daniella at Balgores was so pushy and adamant to have absolutely nothing as a recommendation on the gas safety report. I was then advised to pay for their electrician at an additional cost of Β£150 to produce a completely new EICR, even though a valid report had already been completed in August 2025. This felt excessive and unnecessary. I told them I wanted someone from their office to accompany this electrican as I didnt feel comfortable that they had a copy of MY KEYS and they are entering without my permission. They completely ignored the request and the electrian went unaccompanied!
As well as this I was also given incorrect information regarding the custodial deposit scheme. I was initially advised to pay the five-week deposit directly into the scheme myself, only to later be told this was incorrect and that the agent pays this directly. I was then asked to contact the scheme to request a refund, which resulted in such an inconvenience and financial disruption on my side. Not once was an apology issued.
Overall, communication was poor and responsibility often felt shifted back onto me. I was reassured that processes were in place to βprotectβ me, but at it felt more focused on covering themselves over me than supporting me as a client.
After I said i wanted to raise a complaint. I was ignored, I was promised a call back after Daniella gave me the wrong advice and she never called me back just kept everything to emails.
The process felt rushed from start to finish, even my tenant feels they showed little care towards her. I dont have any trust or confidence in them and I wouldn't use them again. The overall experience was stressful, poorly communicated, and did not reflect the level of service expected for the fees charged.

GoogleJohn Partridge provided an excellent service throughout my property purchase. From the initial stages through to completion, he was consistently professional, responsive, and proactive. Communication was always prompt, and he took the time to answer my questions clearly and thoroughly, which made the entire process much less stressful.
He was particularly effective at coordinating communication between myself and the seller, ensuring that any issues or queries were addressed efficiently and without unnecessary delays. His advice was practical, honest, and genuinely helpful at key stages of the transaction.
I would highly recommend John to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and reliable estate agent. His professionalism and commitment to keeping the process moving smoothly were greatly appreciated throughout my purchase.

GoogleSpoke to someone on the phone to try and book in a viewing on a property - the guy wouldn't even let me go and view the property because I wasn't sure on my move out dates. I asked if I could just see it before I firmed anything up and he said no - which I think is just him being lazy. Really rude and just poor service.
Ami Β· 4 July 2026 Β· Balgores South Woodham Ferrers
Agent replied Β· 4 August 2026
Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear you were disappointed with your experience.
Unfortunately, there was a two-month difference between the property's available move-in date and the move date you were able to provide. As the landlord required a tenant who could move within the property's availability, we were unable to arrange a viewing knowing the dates were not compatible.
We understand this may have been frustrating, however, this decision was based solely on the significant difference in move-in dates and not a reluctance to assist. We also offered to register your details and help you find alternative properties that would better match your expected moving timeframe.
We wish you every success with your property search and would be happy to assist you with any suitable properties that become available.
