Russell and Mark helped us buy our first house this summer. Russell was always at the end of the phone and was on the ball with all our deadlines etc and was a great help throughout the process. We would definitely use Cox and Co in the future and recommend to anyone buying/selling.

Russell and Marc know their stuff. They had a very good plan to sell the house, and results came quickly. Their customer service is very good, and Russell was excellent at liaising between buyer and seller to get the sale completed. Recommend.

Nothing short of 1st class treatment - seriously. Having moved a few times before and dealt with varying degrees of not so great estate agents (to put it mildly) I was really pleased with all of the team. I was impressed from the first time we went to view the property with Russel Best (he is the best because he gave us plenty of time to really see the property) and reassured by his clarity and knowledge. Then when I made an offer both Tony and Mark Cox really helped get it through because they saw how desperately I wanted the property! However my buyers were not the easiest and the stress they put me through was massive. Communication is very important for me and whenever I phoned the office Marc was always there for me even if busy and would calm me down and give me advice on how to proceed and hope that it would eventually complete, which it did! There were days when I was really depressed about how long the process was taking, but Marc's humour cheered me up. I am now happily settling in. Definitely the friendliest, most professional and genuine estate agents that I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with and I swear that I was not paid to write this essay! If you choose Cox and Co (whether selling or purchasing) I promise that you WILL thank me in the future.

I sold my home recently through Cox & Co. I found them very pleasant to work with, and it felt like they worked hard to get a good result for me. I was particularly pleased with how Russell gave useful and timely feedback after every viewing. It certainly reduced stress levels to be kept in the loop.

Having purchased a property through Cox & Co we would 100% recommend them and use ourselves for any future moves. The team went out of their way, above and beyond what is expected to keep the sale progressing. We can't thank them enough for their professional and extremely friendly, supportive and honest advice (not something I ever thought I'd say about an Estate Agent)! Huge thank you to Marc and Russell - we're not sure we'd be in our new home without you guys!

Cox and Co were extremely professional and friendly. Russell was always available to answer our questions and made the (very stressful!) process of buying a house run smoothly. Definitely recommend them as an estate agent. Great smaller business with lots of knowledge. Russell was always very honest and straightforward from the start. Thanks!

I have just completed the purchase of a property through this agent and, in complete contrast to most other agents that i have dealt with, I found Russell to be honest,very efficient and an absolute pleasure to deal with. The transaction went through very smoothly thanks to his diligence and unwavering attention to details. I would recommend Cox and co to anyone thinking of buying or selling their property.

We sold our flat through Cox & Co and are glad we chose them. Marc spent a long time talking with me at the valuation and he seemed to have more expertise than the other estate agents who had been round. He and our main point of contact Russell were both excellent throughout the entire process, always being there to answer any queries and assist with navigating the process of selling our house. They helped with logistical details such as scanning and sending documents when needed, and Marc even gave us a lift to pick up our new keys on moving day. Overall we are very happy with the service we have received from Cox & Co and very happy in our new home.

After speaking with a number of agents we chose Cox & Co to sell our home as Marc was both knowledgable and honest and gave us a lot of confidence. We were very impressed with the pictures taken of our house, and how many viewing they had booked for our open day. We had multiple offers and agreed our sale within a week. There were some delays with our exchange (due to a mortgage lender in our chain) and Russell was fantastic at keeping us updated and chasing progress reports. We would highly recommend. Thanks so much for all your help!

We recently bought a property with Cox and Co Homes with Russell as our main point of contact. He was great, as was the whole process. We beforehand had a bad experience with an estate agents so this was a nice change. Russell was very accommodating when we had to move appointments around to view the house etc and would go back and fourth between us and the seller quickly. Would definitely recommend if you want a friendly and non pushy estate agents

The guys here are friendly and helpful. We dealt with Russell and he is highly communicative, sometimes a little too chatty when you are in a hurry, but very good at keeping you in the loop of what is going on. There were some challenges with the house we were buying, but Russell did listen to us and was very fair when trying to resolve problems with us and the vendor. We would definitely recommend Cox and Co.

I highly recommend Cox and Co if you are selling your home. Russell and Marc were professional, friendly and understanding of our situation. The sale was not without complications, but they were quickly addressed and communication was clear throughout to keep all parties in the loop. I was very grateful we chose Cox and Co out of all who initially valued our house. It was not the highest valuation of the agents but was the most realistically priced, and our house went over the asking price anyway in the buoyant market earlier this year. Mostly though, it was Russell and Marc's willingness to go above and beyond to help which was most reassuring. Thank-you.

It was a difficult and long sale but Russell & Marc managed to get it over the line after jumping through hoops. I think other agents would have given up earlier in the process but their professionalism proved that the customer comes first and that’s why their reputation precedes them.PositiveQuality

Having had a number of negative experiences with previous estate agents, that were unreliable and in short were happy to lie directly to my face. Dealing with Cox & Co and in particular Russell has been a breath of fresh air. From the first contact they were committed to offering me a professional, responsive and friendly service that made me feel like I was their priority. I was given clear guidelines of what to expect and if required their input and recommendations. I was given regular progress updates and felt supported throughout what turned out to be quite a stressful and drawn out house sale. Russell's calm professional approach was exactly what I needed. Thank you for getting the house sold and the positive impact that it is going to have on my life. You made a difficult situation as straightforward as you could and for that I am very thankful. I would happily refer my friends and family to Cox & Co, in fact I think that I already have. All Estate Agents should aspire to operate at this level of professionalism. Thank you NickPositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

MY FIRST TRADE EXPERIENCE. I’m not going to lie when I first decide to go with them I was super nervous. not knowing and totally trusting someone you never meet with your money was scary but that was the best decision I’ve made and I risk it!! Take the risk and you'll thank me later. I’m so pleased with my business plan the process was super easy and only took a week turnaround he kept me updated step by step until he was finished and the finished plan was everything I didn’t know I needed, he does the research for you a very detailed and informative well laid out business plan I would highly recommend thank you a million! now i can proudly say i'm financially buoyant, my last trade profit was $22,700. I have been trading and i will keep on trading with Mrs SHEILA BRATTON Watsapp : +1(510)224-4372Email: sheilabratton354@gmail.com

A good estate agent to deal with. Straightforward and honest in approach. Nice guys. They know Portslade really well and this comes over as a real positive. I dealt with Russell in the main who was excellent. V patient and informative. Good advice on the process. All staff were good (Mark and Mr C snr) as back up and its clear they want the best for their clients. Would recommend- feels like a family owned and run business which is great.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality
