As a first time buyer, I found country properties Hatfield staffs helping and supportive in making my home purchase successful and making sure the deal closes. I have had almost 5 months of continued activities related to purchase and Country property staff, especially Peter and Jemel had made sure to keep the chain stakeholders updated about the progress and also guided at each step. I truly appreciate Peter, Jemel and their boss Mobi for the support and help provided to me during this journey and would recommend the country properties for buying/ selling of property. Thanks you again Peter and Jemel for your professional help!! Regards Kirti

I recently arranged my rental through Country Properties in Hatfield, and the service was outstanding. Dawn Murphy and her team were highly professional, kept me updated every step of the way, and always responded promptly to my queries. They made the entire letting process simple, from initial viewing to signing the tenancy agreement.

I contacted this estate agent to discuss selling my property and initially spoke to someone who assured me they would confirm an appointment soon. However, I never received any confirmation. I followed up several times, leaving multiple messages for the sales department, but no one responded. Frustrated, I called again and asked to speak with the branch manager. The person who answered couldn’t be bothered to check if the manager was available and showed no interest in helping. The lack of professionalism and basic communication is appalling. I am genuinely surprised by the number of 5-star reviews this estate agent has, as my experience has been nothing but disappointing. Poor communication and a complete disregard for customer service make it hard to recommend them.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are truly sorry to hear about your experience and the frustration it has caused you. Providing exceptional customer service is at the heart of what we do, and it’s disappointing to learn that we fell short in this instance. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention, as it allows us to improve our processes. It’s possible that your initial calls were handled by our out-of-office service, which might explain the confusion regarding the availability of our branch manager. However, this does not excuse the lack of follow-up and communication you experienced. 21/01/26 Glad to say we maganged to speak with our client and we have succesfully completed a sale on their property. We would love the opportunity to make this right. Please feel free to contact our office directly and ask for Peter Heath, our Sales Manager, who will personally assist you with your enquiry. Peter is committed to ensuring all our clients receive the highest level of service and will be happy to address any concerns you may have. Kind Regards, Dawn, Office Manager

Brilliant service when selling and buying with country properties. The team were great, organised and always available to help. The process was seamless, start from finish, the team also solved and helped us with a few bumps in the road with solicitors. As everyone knows, house moving is very stressful and country properties were great at assisting throughout the process. I would highly recommend to anyone who is looking to sell/buy locally.

We could not fault Steph and the team at Country Properties Shefford. From first viewing of our property till completion, we were supported continuously. Buying your first property is one of the most stressful things, yet no query was too much for Steph and the team. We feel that they went way above and beyond to support us and help us get our sale over the finish line. We are so grateful to Steph and all the Shefford Country Properties team!!

My mother recently purchased a house through Country Properties in Shefford. This is the second time in just over two years that we have used this branch after my own purchase in 2023. The level of consistency in their customer care service is second to none. This time Steph was our point of contact and she and her team have been brilliant to deal with from the first viewing right untill hand over of the keys. The goal was to move my mother closer to my family and I and with country properties help we managed to find a house on the same estate as ourselves. We couldn’t recommend the Shefford branch enough whether you’re buying or selling a property. Thanks again Steph, Jamie and team for making our family happy for the second time in as many years

Country Properties were absolutely amazing throughout my first house buying process. Phil really went above and beyond for me in many ways, and it really felt like he was on my team! Additionally, he was always really easy to contact over the phone and by email, and always followed through promptly on everything he said he was going to do. It was a really tough process, but it would have been a whole lot tougher without phil! Many thanks to phil and the team at Country Properties, keep up the great work!!

Country properties have been amazing!! Phil and the team have been guiding us through buying our first home, they have been very responsive, always getting back to us when they say they will and always answering the phone. Phil has been so kind and patient with us, explaining any jargun and parts of the process that we didn’t understand. We couldn’t have done it without them, cannot recommend highly enough!

I cannot express how wonderful the team at Country Properties, Flitwick, have been. It was a very anxious stressful, long and drawn out house sell and purchase (mainly caused by a very obstinate and controlling solicitor at the start of the chain, who is clearly in the wrong job!) However the delightful team at CP did their utmost to move things along, were the most helpful souls when i needed them, nothing was too much trouble and they went above and beyond to make things happen. We laughed and we cried. I am now happily in my new home thanks to Duane, Phil, Steve, Christine, Sue, Cath and the fabulous Jackie, plus all the others who I'm sure helped in some way for me. I'm going to miss you guys! Thank you for being my guardian angels.

We had an extremely disappointing and frustrating experience renting through Country Properties. The house we rented was in an unacceptable condition, it was full of mould, which posed serious health concerns and made living there deeply unpleasant. Despite raising these issues, no real help or support was offered. We spent a significant amount of our own money trying to make the place liveable, which should never have been necessary in a properly maintained rental property. What made the situation worse was the attitude of some of the staff. We were met with condescension and rudeness when we sought assistance. We eventually refused to deal with certain individuals due to their dismissive and unhelpful manner. This experience has left us deeply disappointed with how little regard was shown for our wellbeing as tenants. We would not recommend renting through Country Properties based on how we were treated.

Emma · 10 October 2025 · Country Properties Flitwick

Agent replied · 16 July 2025

Dear Emma, we are truly sorry to hear that you feel dissatisfied with your experience renting through Country Properties. We do take the welfare of our tenants, as well as the maintenance of our clients’ properties, very seriously. Having commissioned an independent specialist survey of the property, it was confirmed that no damp was present, but a build-up of condensation had occurred. Recommendations were made to prevent the problem, and modifications were also made to the property to further reduce condensation, so we are disappointed that you feel that no help or support was offered. All feedback is invaluable to us, so please do contact us directly if you still have concerns. Best regards, CPs Lettings team.

If I could give 6 stars I would . Phil and Duane were always available for me and communication was 1st class (including the banter which I loved to ease the stress) My move day was awful, full of complications and stress, but they kept me calm and helped solve a big problem for me . Couldn’t have done it without them. Can’t thank them enough .

Phil and the team were fantastic when buying our new property in Flitwick. Easy to get hold of and good at pushing things through, even on the sale of our property in a different area! Phil was friendly and gave regular updates. It will not be for a long time but if/when it comes to selling our house I will definitely use Country Properties again.

This was the second time we have used Country Properties to sell and it was 5* all round. Selling a house is always a stressful process but Phil kept us updated throughout and was always available if we had any worries or queries. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Country Properties (and especially Phil) in the future.

Can’t praise them enough. I purchased a house through them 30+ years ago and came very close to repeating that experience recently. Fiona was great - a lovely lady, knowledgeable and accommodating during our viewings. Would absolutely work with them again - although I hope I won’t need to for a few years!

I was renting my place out and went around the agencies , they were all too expensive, it would work out two months of my receiving rent which wasn’t fair! Went to Simon and the gave me a very competitive rate which was incl vat still less than a month’s rent. Paul found me a great tenant after 10 days waiting which is really quick. I was even away when it happened and this guys handled everything in my absence . Thank you for everything .
