Purchased despite Intercounty, not because of them

We have had a mixed experience that got progressively worse as exchange in contracts approached. We twice arrived at the point where my wife and I agreed to pull out of the purchase due to questionable levels of service, rescued at the last minute by progress. Despite the purchase being agreed, there was an overly aggressive air in the way some communications were handled, as if to try and close a deal that was already closing. This was probably not helped by the Vendor, but your job as agents is to broker between two parties, a job I feel was not handled very well at all. Indeed your involvement at times only served to confuse and delay. There was also a poor attempt at creating urgency in responses when responses were actually owed by yourselves. You were called on this and back-tracked over a period of 24 hours. I would be happy to discuss further either face to face or on the phone, but don't do not have the time to write in the required depth.

Awful customer service. If I could give them less than 1 star I would. The manager at this branch has been a complete pain to deal with. We have had to chase her several times for a response and when we do finally get one she comes across โ€ฆ

We used Intercounty recently to sell โ€ฆ

We used Intercounty recently to sell our property and had previously been on the market with another agent for 5 weeks and only had 2 viewings during that period. We changed to Intercounty and the viewings increased significantly and the potential buyers were all qualified beforehand and in a good position to proceed. Within 2 weeks we had an offer which we accepted and subsequently completed.I was very happy with Intercounty and Andrew Kershaw and his team kept us regularly updated throughout the process and so I would certainly recommend their service.

Great customer care

In all my experiences with Intercounty Estate Agents the team were friendly and helpful with all enquiries. There were good handovers between team members which meant if the person I needed to speak to in the office wasn't in then somebody else was always able to deal with my enquiry. I would highly recommend Intercounty services to all.

Great experience with Intercounty

Honestly can't be more grateful to Intercounty - Matt in particular has been brilliant. As a (slightly needy!) first time buyer, he's been really patient and accommodating, and went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable in making my decision in buying my first home. Would love to say a big thank you and would highly recommend them.

Definitely recommend Intercounty!

We have come into contact with many estate agents through the last few years buying our first home and now moving on. Intercounty have without doubt conducted themselves in the best way of all of them - realistic pricing, honest feedback and even just the fact that they have longer opening hours has been really appreciated. We were told we could sell our house for much more than we knew was realistic, and now are watching all houses around us reduce their prices to try and get a sale, while we are sold, complete in our new house and very happy with the outcome. Josh and Rosanna particularly were amazing - giving their honest thoughts on houses we were looking at when they could have just pushed us to make offers on the first ones we saw to hurry the sale along. I would recommend to anyone and will definitely use them again if the need arises, which I sort of hope it doesnt!

Dear Mr Bristow,My sincere apologies about your wasted journey over the weekend. We have looked at the details and spoken to the client, you are right in your assumption that the property needs to have a kitchen to be mortgageable and thank you for highlighting this. We will amended accordingly and speak to our member of staff.Once again I apologise on behalf of Intercounty.Andrew Kershaw, Sales Director

Just seems like a lot of money for โ€ฆ

Just seems like a lot of money for paperwork and an additional payment because I had a guarantor didn't really help. Staff were more than helpful explaining everything to me

William ยท 8 September 2017 ยท Intercounty Bishop Stortford

Agent replied ยท 5 July 2023

Glad to hear that our staff have explained everything to you. At Intercounty we instruct independent companies to ensure our Landlords are given completely unbiased information. The administration fee is not simply a payment for Intercounty but covers all the referencing, the Right to Rent checks, safety compliance checks, preparation of the tenancy agreement and guarantors agreement. As you needed a Guarantor there was an additional fee for the extra referencing, compliance checks and additional paperwork required.If you would like to discuss this matter further please contact Caroline Rutherford our Lettings Director on 01279 655248.

Very stressful and complicated house โ€ฆ

Very stressful and complicated house move that's taken 7 months! Experience was made easier by both Lois and Matt who not only gave helpful advice, kept the whole chain up to date but provided a huge amount of support.
