No chance of getting your valuation unless you tell them you want a quick sale? I can't say for sure but after 2 weeks and 4 calls it's still not here...

First, I was welcomed nicely at the agency, Janine Anna Toby, everyone really helped me find a home, even though my English is poor, I thought I had no chance, and now my wife and I are shocked that we have a home. Peace and quiet and I have no words. Thank you very much and we recommend Freeman Forman Uckfield Janine you are amazing ❤️

Freeman Foreman helped me last year when I was looking for my new home. They were a great help and found somewhere suitable really quickly. Toby called me this week to check in after a year of being in my new place, and I really appreciated the gesture. He was kind and professional and it's comforting to know he took the time to follow it up and see if I needed anything. Great work!

Dreadful Estate Agent. Overpaid for the poor service received. When listed all we weren’t happy about, including witnessing one of their negotiators leaving people viewing our property in the bungalow UNATTENDED whilst they showed others the garage, and asked for a reduction in the fee we were point blank refused…they may have good reviews on here but check Feefo they have 50% ONE STAR reviews!!! Typical corporate couldn’t care less attitude!

Freeman Forman in Heathfield has been great. We had the pleasure of working with Katie, who's been amazing from start to finish. She was very prompt in responding to queries, always providing us updates (which can be rare, especially as buyers) overall, very professional and lovely. I also really appreciated the buying process, and the company didn't want to create a bidding war that could become a bit ugly and take away the excitement. Would definitely recommend Freenan Forman , and we'll certainly be looking towards the team if we ever plan to sell. Thanks, Katie!

We had the good fortune to have Katie Walters as our liaison for the house purchase. Nothing was too much trouble for her, great customer facing skills, friendly but 100% professional & she went out of her way to ensure the process went smoothly, taking many phone calls & answering emails that I sent. Katie has restored my faith in Estate Agents. Thank you Katie

From start to finish I have been very impressed with Freeman Forman especially Lauren who was very supportive and responsive to any of my queries. It was a challenging chain of 7 !! But she dealt with everything very calmly and efficiently. I’m so happy to be moving into my dream house and I would not hesitate to recommend Freeman Forman Ringmer

Terrible lettings department - spoken to many other ex tenants of Freeman Forman who share the same view. Avoid at all costs if you are looking to rent!

Really bad. Wouldn't reply when put offer in of asking price, then when I finally did hear something back they said they're letting a few people put offers in. They let the property to someone else like it was an auction

Freeman Forman Lettings in Eastbourne…

Freeman Forman Lettings in Eastbourne were happy to take the 10% management fees for 20 years when we let our property out through them, but when our tenant decided not to pay the rent anymore they were suddenly very unhelpful, they knew this was crippling us as the interest on the mortgage had shot up and with no rent coming in we were struggling. They did not answer emails we sent to them and rarely answer the phone choosing to decide whether to return calls based on the messages left. I had to talk Sam through the online form to get the Universal Credit paid direct, I can’t believe they didn’t know how to do that and then their account dept refused to pay the rent to us until their agent called the Universal Credit team each month to get a reference number to match to the payment, they didn’t want to do that because Universal Credit are difficult to get through to, it was when I took over that job that I realised the reference number was the same every month, but Freeman Forman staff hadn’t realised that. When our tenant finally left we asked the agent how we went about getting the deposit, they charged us £180 to book a ‘walk through’ with an agent who told us on the day of the walk through that he only charges £50 so despite them knowing we were financially in difficulty they stiffed us for £130. We have 4 rentable properties and I will never use them again.
