I cannot recommend Durden and Hunt highly enough. We recently used them for both the sale of our previous home and the purchase of our new one, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional from start to finish. The entire team Ross, Dan, Grace, Ciara and Amanda who has sadly moved from the Hornchurch branch to Colchester are the kindest, most hardworking team and they were absolutely brilliant working with myself and my mum who suffers with anxiety. They were so patient and helpful with her and nothing was too much for them. We received regular updates, and Ross and Amanda in particular were always one step ahead of the solicitors, which kept the momentum going. The entire team are such a credit to this company. I hope they get the recognition they deserve. Thank you all so much. We are very grateful to have found such amazing people.

We had an incredibly positive experience with Durden and Hunt - Hornchurch during what was a very stressful move. From start to finish, their communication was outstanding, they never once avoided my (often stressed!) phone calls and were always patient, taking the time to clearly explain each step of the process. No matter how busy they were, they always made time to support us, which made a huge difference. Ciara was fantastic right from the beginning, taking control of the viewings and presenting our property beautifully to potential buyers. Her professionalism and enthusiasm really stood out. Ross completely understood what we were looking for in a future home and found us the perfect property in the perfect area, we couldn’t be happier with our new home. Ross and Amanda were absolutely instrumental in pushing our sale through a particularly difficult chain. We genuinely believe that without their persistence and dedication, the move would not have happened. Amanda went above and beyond, it was clear she truly cared, even to the point of losing sleep over the process alongside us. Knowing someone was as invested in our move as we were was incredibly reassuring. We are now very happy in our new home and feel extremely grateful for the commitment, hard work, and genuine care shown by the entire team. We couldn’t have asked for better support throughout this journey.

Both Andy and Amanda have provided fantastic support when needed at different stages of the process. Andy helped us to negotiate the first few weeks whilst Amanda choreographed the stressful last few weeks. As a pair of 74 yr olds, we were both grateful to have direct access to Amanda during the stressful closing stages.

Durden and Hunt International

I recently sold my house and Durden and Hunt (Hornchurch branch) have been exceptional with their service. My main contacts were Daniel, Grace and Ciara (also Amanda, my sales progressor). My property was out of their obvious catchment zone but as I couldn’t attend the viewings, they were in attendance without fail, making the sale of my house a simple and relatively stress free experience. I highly recommend all the staff that helped me. Thank you.

Durden and Hunt have just sold my property for me. I cannot recommend them highly enough. Alex managed to take the stress out of the process. He always answered my calls and always sorted any problem I had. He worked all hours and the house was sold within two months.

Dan (the Assistant Branch Manager) gave a fair valuation and was proactive in finding us a buyer. The photographs were high quality, showing the property at its best. Our house sale then involved a complex chain but Amanda (Sales Progressor) and Dan pulled out all the stops to get it over the line. Overall a friendly team and would recommend them to anyone selling a home in the area.

What can I say? Ross and Dan, were so patient with me when trying to sell my house, but wow did they try their hardest to also find me a house, they knew exactly what my fussy self would like and showed me homes I wouldn’t have considered myself but ended up loving, kind of reinstated that sometimes estate agents aren’t evil and do know what they are doing. Ciara and grace were also great with updating me on viewings on my sale etc. I have to give a special massive shout out to Amanda the sales progressor! Finally met my match in terms of tenacity and just being on it to get my sale over the line. She’s a god send in what has been such a stressful time of my life. We finally exchanged yesterday and it’s all thanks to Amanda! Would easily use Durden and hunt again if I decide to torture myself by moving again as they do make it so much less painful.
