Thank you for assisting us with our first dream home!!! From the initial viewing to the final signing, Amanda and ross was always available, responsive, and promptly pushing the entire process. Your expertise and guidance helped us secure our dream home. What impressed us most was that you made it happen before the stamp duty for first time buyers kicked in and that too the entire process was completed within 6weeks, wherein we were estimating more than 8-10weeks. You truly went above and beyond to ensure our needs were met. If you're looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and dedicated estate agent, look no further than Durden and hunt! We're so grateful for your help in making our dream a reality.

I had the pleasure of working with Durden and Hunt and the experience was nothing short of outstanding. From the very beginning, James went above and beyond as my real estate agent, professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly proactive. He made the entire process of renting out the property seamless and stress-free. James was so impressive that I ended up getting him a bottle of wine as a small thank you, I hope he enjoyed it because he truly earned it! Jane, the administrator, was equally fantastic. She was attentive, efficient, and handled all the booking and paperwork details with such care and precision, it made a world of difference. A special mention also goes to the photographer (whose name I can’t recall, but wish I could!), he was brilliant. Professional, creative, and clearly experienced, he really captured the property beautifully and helped present it in the best possible light. Since the property has been rented, Paul has taken over communication and has been just as professional and responsive, keeping everything running smoothly and giving me great peace of mind. I honestly couldn't have asked for a better team. If you're looking for a real estate agency that combines expertise with genuine care, Durden and Hunt should be your first call.

My wife and I very were happy the way Ciara, took us to the four respective bungalows. She had full knowledge of, not only the properties but also the surrounding areas, such as the relevant amenities. She has a very warm personality and very professional in her dealings.

I used Durden and Hunt (Hornchurch branch) to sell my property. Ross was very efficient and knowledgeable. The estate agent fees were very reasonable compared with other estate agents. Once I had a buyer, Amanda took over on the sales progression side keeping me updated regularly and progressing the sale! Communication was Great!

I bought a house through Durden & Hunt in September this year. The process was easy and the staff were very helpful. James was the agent and Amanda was the sales progressor. James was very approachable and friendly and we never felt like he was trying to oversell or push us into making a decision, he gave us plenty of time to make decisions and was happy to take us for repeat viewings. Amanda was a fantastic sales progressor, she would chase almost daily (which is a good thing) and I really felt confident that she wanted to get things moved as quickly as possible. In the end I think we managed to get from offer to exchange in about 9 weeks which is pretty good going. I would thoroughly recommend using them in the area as I did not have close to the same sales experience with other larger agents in the area.

I’m very pleased with the service I received from Durden & Hunt during my property purchase. Amanda, along with Ross, Ciara, and Grace, provided an excellent level of support and kept me well-informed throughout the process. From the start, Ross offered reassurance and made me feel confident that everything would go smoothly. The team’s professionalism and expertise stood out. Amanda, in particular, was incredibly helpful and ensured everything stayed on track near the end. I’d highly recommend the team at the Hornchurch office to anyone looking to buy a property, especially your first. Their approach is efficient, professional, and supportive every step of the way.

I’m over the moon with the service I've received from Durden & Hunt. Ross, Amanda, Ciara & Grace provided a superior level of personalised service with excellent communication throughout. From start to finish, Ross provided reassurance, and confidence that the whole process would progress smoothly, this was certainly the case.Their expertise and leadership was simply brilliant, they made what is usually a stressful activity, very smooth and efficient, providing support at every stage. Having previously gone through a most unpleasant experience with another agent, Durden & Hunt not only met, but exceeded my expectations of excellent customer service. Thank you all so much! :-) I would not hesitate to personally recommend the outstanding team at the Hornchurch office.

We can’t recommend Durden and Hunt enough (Amanda and James) they were really supportive and did everything possibly could to ensure our property completed in just 9 weeks. We couldn’t be happier and wouldn’t hesitate to use them again.

I have recently used Durden and Hunt to sell my property and I must say their service was out of this world. The team really worked hard. It started with a leaflet that was put through my mailbox which I used to make contact. Ross Chimes took the call and came in to value the property and explain the process and managed my expectations well. He listened to my requests and provided options. The Pictures were taken and the house was on the market at the time and date as promised The team that handled the viewings and bookings, Ross, Grace Shepherd and Ciara Clark were superstars. They accommodated the potential buyers requests and made themselves available for viewing while I was in and even when no one was at home. I trusted them with my keys to come and go whenever a request was made. They worked around our availability and showed respect for the times we could not have allowed viewings. Amanda Stark, came into the picture to nicely wrap everything up after the offer was made and accepted for the sale of the property. Amanda pushed through all the bottle necks between the two lawyers and the buyer. She pressed the lawyers for progress updates and she even worked with the estate agent for the property that I am buying to ensure that my purchase was going ahead smoothly. It has been truly a pleasure working with you all. A big thank you to you all and all the best!!

My experience with Durden & Hunt has been very positive and I've found them to be very helpful and professional. They were very pro-active with the viewings, getting lots of prospective buyers in to see the property, and keeping us updated on a regular basis. We were very fortunate to find a 1st time buyer and thus with the assistance of D&H and our solicitors, were able to exchange contracts within 5-weeks of accepting an offer. As an added bonus, D&H fees were significantly less than our previous estate agent. I can thoroughly recommend using Durden & Hunt.
