Fantastic support and service from Kayleigh. She was completely on the ball and helped us negotiate everything perfectly - she was such a great help. Thank you
Thank you Helen, Kayleigh is absolutely obsessed with customer care, she will be delighted that you have recognised this
5/5
Kayleigh Manning was incredibly helpful and professional throughout what became a difficult sale. I genuinely felt supported and never left “hung out to dry” after my offer was accepted. Her consistent communication was exactly what I needed, always professional, always timely, and she kept me fully informed rather than wondering when or how confirmation from the seller would come through. Unfortunately, the offer didn’t result in a completed sale, but the hard work, dedication, and transparency Kayleigh showed throughout the process were greatly appreciated. She made a challenging situation far easier to manage, and I’m genuinely grateful for the effort she put in to keep me updated under tough circumstances.
Thank you Justin, Kayleigh take great pride in making our clients' journeys as smooth as possible. She will be delighted that you acknowledged this
5/5
Kayleigh has been amazing throughout the whole process. She’s always been happy to answer the many questions we’ve had and has made everything feel so much easier. Her communication has been excellent, she’s incredibly efficient, and nothing ever seemed too much trouble. We really appreciate all of her support and would highly recommend her and the team. Thank you again, Kayleigh!
Really appreciate the kind words Morgan, best wishes to you and Sam with the purchase of your first home.
5/5
I purchased my first home from the Redcar branch and the service I received was nothing short of amazing. Isobel dealt with my offer initially and put me in touch with Michael Pooles solicitors and mortgage advisor. I was then passed to Helen who helped me throughout my purchase. All the staff at Michael Poole, the solicitors and the mortgage adviser were very helpful and supportive through the while process. Thanks again, we love our new home!

Worst experience ever. Rude. Unprofessional. Miss led me with the property description. Advert said recent rewire...turn out it was 11 years ago. Helen was rude. Ignorant and the most unhelpful person ever. They made the whole process of buying un necessarily stressful. I have bought and sold many properties over the years and never experienced anything like it. Collected my keys today and didnt get a smile or congratulations. Nothing. Absolutely appalling. The only person who was any help was Kirby. I would avoid this company at all costs
Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We're sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations. We appreciate that buying a home can be a stressful process, particularly when there are time pressures and unexpected challenges along the way. Throughout the transaction, our team worked hard to keep all parties updated and to progress the sale as efficiently as possible. While we respect your perspective, we do feel that communication was managed in accordance with the instructions received from your conveyancer, and we endeavoured to respond to all enquiries promptly. We are pleased that Kirby was able to assist you positively during the process and appreciate your recognition of her efforts. We wish you all the very best in your new home and thank you again for your feedback.

Scam, change prices and suppliers for no reason. Then when they have changed suppliers guess who pays the extra? Suprise, surprise - the tenant!
Hello Daniel, thank you for your feedback. We would love to help clear up a misunderstanding regarding your account, as we want to make sure you have the right information. The change in your energy provider was not a decision made by Homebox; your previous supplier, Rebel Energy, unfortunately went into administration. Following standard regulatory procedures, British Gas was appointed by Ofgem as the Supplier of Last Resort (SOLR) to take over the supply. During this transition, we worked hard to secure a competitive tariff with British Gas to protect our customers from higher standard rates. The recent adjustment to your monthly payment is based on your actual energy usage to ensure your costs are accurately covered. We will contact you directly to go through your account and usage breakdown.
