5/5
So professional, so calm, so helpful, so charming, everything you could wish for when you are going through the trauma of buying and selling your home. I would especially recommend Sonia, who will type e-mails at near midnight and ring on her day off!
5/5
We bought a house through country properties and were very impressed by the service. They always had a good idea of what was going on (more than the solicitors) and were able to keep is informed.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review Mr Baker, we hope you are very happy in your new home - if you require any help in the future please don't hesitate to call!
5/5
Having been with another local estate agent ,who proved unable to market our property and find a buyer, The Baldock team led by Sonia Jakes provided an effective, timely marketing and sales effort, particularly in closing the sale in a complex situation, through effective co-ordination with all the parties involved
5/5
Listing to Completion in 30 business days! Country Properties know the market and know the buyers. We had an offer on our flat a day after listing. The whole team at CP were amazing throughout the whole process - keeping us informed and helping to manage the other parties. A fantastic result! Well done!
5/5
Excellent service provided to us as buyers, thank you very much to the whole team especially Sonia, Kerry-Marie and Helen for all of your support throughout the process. We were kept fully informed with regular status updates as part of the service, and all of the team were on hand to answer any questions. Thank you again, we love our new home!
Thank you Lucy! We're glad you have been happy with the service we've given, if there's anything you need in the future please don't hesitate to contact us!

The Baldock office gives professional, knowledgeable, friendly, personalised service. Always available by phone or email and responded very quickly to any questions. Everything was clearly explained from the start and they gave excellent advice and reassurance. No matter who we spoke to, they were aware of who we were. They delivered a better service than other estate agents we have dealt with. Will use again and again.
5/5
When deciding to sell my house I made an initial mistake of going with another agent. After several fruitless months I changed to Country Properties. It was like chalk and cheese. Every member of staff who would have any involvement in the selling of my property came to my house to get first hand knowledge. I was also given verbal feedback quickly after each viewing. Something I had to chase with the previous agent. One buyer was found but unfortunately his chain broke down. The staff at CP remained upbeat and arranged more viewings. A second buyer arrived and by that time we had found our dream home. Helen offered to negotiate on our behalf and achieved a massive reduction. I was well impressed. Suggestions and recommendations were given and taken up for solicitors, removal companies and a surveyor. Excellent choices. All the staff worked tirelessly during a difficult stage of exchange and completion. We moved on the 13 th of December thanks to the dedication and professionalism of all the staff at Country properties. I cannot thank or recommend them enough.
Thank you very much for your kind words about Country Properties and the team at Baldock John Redman, Director
5/5
Sonia and her team in the Baldock and Ashwell branches of Country Properties were fantastic. My family and I were obliged to sell our home and relocate following a death in the family. Sonia and the CP staff could not have been more supportive, kind or compassionate. They were very sensitive to our needs as a family and went out of their way to provide every assistance needed. Their communication was excellent and I received regular updates on viewings and feedback from buyers. They gave good advice on how to present the house in a saleable way, without huge expense. Their long-standing ties to the local area made their assistance feel more like neighbourly support. They made a painful process bearable. I am so grateful to them.
5/5
Thank you Phil at Country Properties for resolving a stressful situation with simple communication. I would have no hesitation at recommending this branch to anyone especially Phil a genuine & trustworthy estate agent.

I recently purchased a property which was being marketed by Country Property in Hatfield. From my initial contact to arrange a viewing, through to post completion of the sale, I found the team at Country Properties Hatfield to be professional, friendly and excellent in keeping all abreast of progress at each stage of the transaction. To Linda and the team at Country Properties Hatfield, you have my upmost thanks for helping me become a homeowner.
Dear Samuel, Thank you, we are really happy that we found you your first home and that your experience as a buyer was a positive one. Kind regards, Linda and all the team.
5/5
Country Properties in Hatfield offer extremely professional services on behalf of both landlords and tenants in the Hatfield area and beyond. Our daughter rented her flat through this agent and has found them to be excellent to deal with. They make the process of renting accomodation in the area a straightforward process and, in our experience, work just as hard for their tenants as they do for their landlords.
Dear Alan, It's been our pleasure to assist your family, thank you very much for your kind words. Should you ever require assistance in our area again we would be more than happy to help! From Jodie, Audrey and the Team.

I have sold and bought the properties using there service and I will use them again if and when the time comes. Highly recommend to all and especially to whom are new to the property market and require a lot of advice, because they’ got it all covered .All will be explained and took step by step exactly how it should be . Thank you to all involved helping us through rather complicated sale and purchase due to a shared ownership . Once again thank you and successful business in future 👍🏻
Dear Tomas, Thank you for your review, we are glad that our dedicated team lived up to expectations. We wish you every happiness in your new home. Kind regards, Linda, Zoe and team.
5/5
Tim, Linda, Sam and Zoe were brilliant throughout: helpful, attentive, knowledgable and very professional. I’m certain we would have exchanged on our sale and purchase 2-3 weeks later than we did if it hadn’t been for their hard work to unblock and keep things moving forward.
Dear Mr & Mrs Whitehead, thank you for the lovely comments we were very pleased to help you with the sale of your home and the purchase of a new one through us. We hope you are very happy in your new home. Best wishes all the team at Country Properties
5/5
Renting a house with a pet can be quite a challenge but the rental team at Country made it very easy from the start! Jodie in particular was very accommodating, responding quickly and with clarity to all of my requests & enquiries. Throughout the process we were informed of all developments and charges. Quite often with letting agents you don't see them from key handover to contract renewal twelve months later. However Audrey, as our property manager, has been outstanding in quickly following up on a couple of technical issues, arranging contractors and even putting out our bins whilst we're away on holiday! We're very pleased with the quality of finish in the property delivered and the hands on approach to details in the garden, paint and carpets taken by Country Country Hatfield are a breath of quality customer care and professional pride in the often less than impressive world of home rental and we would happily rent with them again.
Dear Andy, Thank you very much for your kind review, it really means a lot to us here at Country Properties! We are delighted that you have had such a positive experience with us and hope this continues for you. We wish you all the best in your new home, you know where we are if you need us! Kind regards, Jodie and Audrey
5/5
Moving to a new area and finding a place to rent can be a daunting experience, but Country Properties - especially Jodie, Audrey and Zoe - have been fantastic. It felt very much like they were keen to find the right property rather than just trying to put me in any old one. Unlike other agents I've used during my search, I didn't feel under any pressure from them either to rush a viewing or to make a decision. Jodie was brilliant at answering questions, and had fantastic knowledge of the properties she showed me around. It made me feel very confident in my choice of place to rent, and they were by far the best of the many local are agents I've interacted with.
Dear James, We are delighted that you have had such a positive experience, it has been a pleasure assisting you. We wish you all the best at your new home! Kind regards, Jodie, Audrey and Zoe.
5/5
Thank you so much to the whole team at Country Properties. From my first initial visit into the Office to make enquiries about selling our house, I knew I had (finally!) made the right decision on our choice of Estate Agents. The service was impeccable, friendly, respectful and informative every step of the way and we felt that everyone within this lovely small team were on hand to support us and answer any questions that we had at any time or stage of the selling process. We would highly recommend this fantastic team and our only regret is that we didn't find them sooner!
Dear Lesley, Thank you very much for this review. It is always lovely to hear that we have got it right and the whole team really appreciated your kind words. It has been a pleasure to work with you and we wish you all the best for the future, Linda.
5/5
We were delighted with the guidance, support and assistance that Country Properties gave us with both the sale of our house and purchase of our new one. The whole team worked tirelessly on our behalf and clearly know Hatfield and the market in exceptional detail. We would not hesitate to recommend them.
Dear Elena, we are pleased that you were delighted with the sales and purchase process. We had pleasure in working with you and wish you and your family every happiness in your new home. Linda, Zoe, Tim and all the team.
