Charter’s Vanessa Joy was brilliant.

Vanessa Joy at Charters estate agents was very helpful during the sale of my property. It was a protracted sale & she kept me up to speed throughout. With the help of the sales progression team she managed to get a difficult sale completed.

Thanks to Jo Goddard

Thanks to Jo Goddard in the Sales Progression Team at Charters, Southampton. She kept us fully informed of progress from the sale of our property through to exchange of contracts. Issues with solicitors meant that it was not an easy process and Jo went the extra mile in liaising with all parties to ensure that the exchange happened in time for the completion date already agreed by everyone in the chain.

Vanessa from Charters Alresford

Vanessa Joy at the Charters Alresford branch is absolutely sensational. She took time to get to know the type of property we were looking for, and after viewing some properties that fit the initial brief, but weren't quite right for us, easily fine-tuned her recommendations.She was readily available on the phone if we needed to reach out, and returned calls quickly if she was otherwise engaged. She kept communications professional and friendly and found us the house that we could live in for the next 40+ years!If you're looking to relocate, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Vanessa to help navigate the journey. Thank you.

A professional agency overall. Giovanna Palmentieri at the Southampton office has been especially helpful. Fast and effective responses for repairs, inspection appointments and such, also provides flexible contact solutions when I was abroad. Great employees and agency as well.

Vanessa Joy - Delivers results with a smile

Not all elements of our sale process were straightforward and initially it was frustrating to be dealing with different members of staff but once we dealt with Vanessa Joy the whole experience was transformed. She was warm, understanding, engaging, professional and tireless in her search. She was determined to find us a buyer and a home and she did both. I would wholeheartedly recommend Vanessa and would happily work with her again.

What an absolute joy it is to work with…

What an absolute joy it is to work with Sarah Bainbridge! I've not rented in a long time and some of my knowledge of the processes is quite rusty. Sarah's been amazingly helpful talking me through how everything works, squeezed me in to view properties where there was no availability and went over and above to support me in finding the right property for me and made the whole experience easy and straight forward. Can't recommend her enough!

Prompt, helpful and clear

They have been very helpful so far, the preparation for the viewing was good and the viewing itself was the best viewing I’ve had from anyone.Our estate Agent was Storme and she was prompt, clear and had all the information available when viewing the house which is something I’ve rarely been provided when viewing a house. She personally was the best estate agent viewing I have had.
