I have just been contacted by one of their staff regarding a viewing WE made the other day. I say WE as it was us who in the end had to approach the vendor, not the agents! I had called previously requesting two properties to be timed sequentially for the next day. We had been promised this would be done. By the end of that day we had NOT been contacted to say it was or was not possible. As we already had an early appointment the next day ( with a trouble free agent ) we completed this and in taking a look at the other properties from the outside met the vendor who had not heard from this agent. He called the agent and we were advised they had tried to make later contact that morning with my "special needs" son , clearly causing confusion by doing after the day agreed. Just now I had a call from this agent who asked how our viewing went but made NO APOLOGY for this previous behaviour, just appeared to wish to ride rough shod over my explaining such and continued onto his wish for feedback! Big mistake! He got it but not about the house, simply that I had no further wish to either speak to or continue this conversation with him! VERY BAD PUBLIC RELATIONS! I am nearly 65, brought and sold many homes in the UK and abroad, NEVER falling out with anyone until now! Does not bode well for any future dealings? Now many ( 7 ) years later and I am pleased to say that this firm has since greatly improved! It would be unfair to still rate them according to this one past incident. :-)

Good day Mr Wood. We were unaware of your review until recently and we are very sorry if indeed this was your experience of our branch. It is certainly not our usual customer service. A lot of time has passed and we would hope the matter was rectified however if we can be of further assistance please do not hesitate to get in touch. Our email address is humberston@lovelleestateagency.co.uk

My partner and I are first time buyers, young couple and was interested in the current new build that had just come available. We had an awful experience with our previous property and needed a better quality house. The property before that was on the same plot allowed us to use the help to buy scheme. We assumed the same scheme was possible with this current house. Before reserving we showed Lovelle’s our mortgage in principle and gifted deposit amount which didn’t add up to the total asking price because we were using Help to Buy. Due to Lovelle’s not checking our mortgage in principle and not correcting us (which they had noticed the mortgage was considerably less as the owner told me over the phone ) we paid £1000 to reserve the property. Months down the line, the developer found out we were using Help to Buy and told us he didn’t offer that scheme and we ended up losing the house and deposit. I was 5 months pregnant at the time and was becoming very stressed. The owner rang me and said one of her team assumed we had a gifted deposit for the rest of the amount of the property (which was £50,000!) When I complained and asked for support in receiving our £1000 deposit back from the developer we were shut down. We wouldn’t of reserved the house if we knew he didn’t use Help to Buy but we were not informed and it was not picked up- even though they deal with this day in and day out. I was extremely stressed, upset and disappointed in the response to our situation.

Agent replied · 11 June 2024

Dear Millie, I am sorry its taken a little while to respond to you. I am genuinely sad to see your comments. The property you proposed to purchase was never advertised with accepting the help to buy scheme, whether that be on any property portal or on the particulars as our client wasn’t registered with the scheme. As you mentioned, there are several builders on the site, with different builds and different criteria, all are not the same. If this information had been relayed to us that you needed the help to buy scheme, we could have advised you from the very beginning of your enquiry. We dealt with your conveyancer and your mortgage advisor who didn’t advise us of this either. I understand how upsetting this whole process must have been for you and I am sorry you didn’t get the outcome you wished for. I wish you and your family all the best for the future. Samantha

After lots of recommendations from friends and family we decided to go with Lovelle after a terrible and unsuccessful 4 months with another local agent. Samantha (the director) came to see us both, spent 3 hours guiding us, informing us about the local market, our property, our past experience and to generally reassure us both. 2 to 3 days later the property was listed. The article, photos, and marketing was fantastic. After, we were handed over to the other members of the team, Briony and Emily. We had 10 viewings, numerous above asking price offers and our home was sold in less than a week. The girls worked around our sometimes awkward working from home timescale, kept us updated throughout, guided us and overall, was a joy to work with! Emails were replied too within the hour. Any queries and concerns were resolved immediately and they didn’t stop to help us both, right up to completion. You can clearly see why these are one of the highest rated agents, they genuinely care about their clients and make a usually stressful time, very easy. On a slightly separate note, it’s nice to see a team of staff not only efficient but also very happy and dedicated within their roles. Credit to the director Sam who clearly runs not only an exceptional team but a very successful branch, you are all a credit to Lovelle!

We are very happy with our experience. Lovelle was always very accommodating to questions and happy to help. They even left us a lovely present at our new house which was a great surprise and much appreciated. 😊 When the time comes we have to move again we will without question use Lovelle.

Simply outstanding from start to completion. I never give 5-star rating 5 times but could not fault Sam and the team. The photos and promo video were incredible, selling fee competitive, marketing and viewings well managed and communications throughout were excellent. Sale secured within a week. I would highly recommend this branch for excellent service levels. F Chambers

When viewing and making my successful offer on my new home communication has been clear and all my questions and queries have been responded to promptly. I have never had to chase Lovelles for a response and this had given me great reassurance and reduced the stress of what can be a stressful process.

My dealings with Lovelle's were absolutely fine through-out the whole process, very happy with how they took pictures and the listing online however on moving day me and my partner felt very pressured to move under almost impossible time scales and were told false information about the buyers wanting to be in and not being happy when this was not the case.
