Absolutely fantastic service from Jim and the team! The awareness of the local area and some pointers was really helpful and Jim managed all of the offer negotiation process fantastically, especially as I was largely caught up at work during this! The team have also provided support with the process following offer acceptance which as a first time buyer is really appreciated! Thanks for all of the hard work and can’t wait to move in!!

Everything about this company has worked. The initial meeting we had with the director about putting the house on the market was an honest and fair discussion. Then, when the house went on the market Laura was fantastic at arranging these around us and constantly kept us in the loop. Once we sold we moved onto the sales progression team. Our sale became extremely challenging due to multiple factors out of everyone's control however with Emily W, Emily P and Lisa they kept us as calm as they could and updated us any time we needed an update, then when deadlines were being reached they worked tirelessly to ensure we exchanged. These three are a particular credit to Harris + Wood and I would thoroughly recommend using this company for any future sales.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

Hi Holly, Thank you so much for your lovely feedback about Steve and all of the team! We are over the moon the property has finally exchanged and whilst it is frustrating that the transaction was challenging, we're so glad that the sales progression team were able to offer the support and tenacity needed to push this across the line for you. We all wish you the best of luck in your new home. All the best, Steve, Jim, Laura, Lily, Marc, Em, Emily and Lisa.

Both Laura and Jim have worked hard to get viewings on my property and finally handling negotiations with the prospective buyer to achieve the best price. They are both great communicators and kept me informed at all times. I would be very happy to recommend Harris + Wood to friends.

Jim and Laura have been absolutely fantastic during our very long moving process. They weren’t pushy and were really helpful offering advice and guidance during the entire process. Our house was valued perfectly (twice) It was like having your friends as estate agents. Of all the estate agents we came into contact with they were definitely the best.

Amazing work from all of the team across the board. Can't fault anything. From the picture quality of the house, the constant communication and enthusiasm to get the house sold.

Me and partner, contacted the office in witham as we located a house that we really liked and decided it would be worth a look. I recieved a call back from Jim the sales manager , Jim proceeded to arrange a viewing for the property. while being in the area Jim also arranged for other viewings to take place for simular properties. I can honestly say that the whole experience has been very good and Jim has been brilliant from start to finish as nothing ever seems to be a bother. Would not hesitate to recommend the team to others they have been great so far.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

I’ve been very impressed with my dealing with this company so far, as a prospective purchaser from them. I contacted this agency together with several others in the area upon losing out on a property. I clearly stated my specific requirements and Steve contacted me promptly and proactively matched me to an ideal property. As our purchase proceeds, I’ve found all interactions with both Steve and other staff members to be very efficient and professional. Refreshingly good service all round!PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

Arranged a viewing on a property for Saturday morning and Laura kindly moved her diary around to accommodate the time I could do. The property I viewed was lovely. Whilst at the property, Laura informed me of an alternate property just coming available. I suggested I drive round to see the area before arranging to view. I did so and text Laura to ask to view, who managed to fit me in that lunchtime. The house was perfect for what I was looking for and have since secured a deal. Fantastic customer service. All in all, I have been treated professionally and am very pleased with the progress so far. Both Laura and Jim have been great and would definitely recommend to anyone looking.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

We placed our property with Harris + Wood in Witham to sell and were blown away by the service provided. We went multiagency and these guys blew the 'competition' out of the water; they're 'active' rather than 'reactive' agents who actively seek out buyers rather than just wait for the phone to ring after posting some pretty pictures on Rightmove. Jim & Steve have a fantastic team that work for them and it was an absolute pleasure to deal with everyone there. Harris + Wood are professional, polite, hands on, extremely responsive and great quality. We think these guys are probably the best estate agent / letting agent in Witham in our opinion and the other agents best watch out.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Harris Wood sets the standards other Estate Agents should seek to aspire to. I switched to Harris Wood after a negative experience with another Estate Agent in Witham who failed to sell my property or on many occasions even bother to screen prospective buyers which meant many of the people who viewed my property were just time wasters who were just "window shopping" and not in a position to purchase. From the very word go the difference in service & professionalism was immense which resulted in Harris Wood selling my property in 5 weeks compared with nearly 5 months with the previous estate agent. I just wished I had gone to Harris Wood in the first instance and I can only recommend them to you as Steve, Jim & Laura are excellent and you couldn't wish to deal with nicer people, nothing was to much trouble for themPositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value
