Cannot recommend Ciaran and Muvin enough. Ciaran was the estate agent for the house I was buying and he was a god send as a first time buyer throughout the whole process. From the first day we met him, he explained everything so clearly but he felt more like a friend than a salesman. Not only did he help with showing us around but helped us with our own mortgage application and even for support with just the stress of moving and explained everything and was always a phone call away. I honestly don’t know how I would have coped without Ciaran and Muvin. Nothing is too small or to be big of an ask and always responds within minutes which is amazing when you’re struggling with solictors! Thank you so much Ciaran and Muvin. If I could give 10 stars I would. 🤗👏🏡

A brilliant service from start to finish. We had great photos taken and viewings from serious buyers who all had offers on their own properties. From the moment we met Ciaran at the first assisted viewing until we completed he was extremely helpful polite and courteous answering or returning calls as soon as possible. Whether it was dealing with enquiries or keeping us updated he was a pleasure to deal with.

Jamie has been helpful throughout, what has been a very lengthy and drawn out sale and purchase due to delays for all number of reason. Jamie was readily available to talk through each stage and keep me updated throughout! Definitely recommend.

Josh has been so amazing through this entire process. He was so friendly from the first meeting and answered our many questions as we’re first time buyers. He kept us at ease and always kept us up to date with what was happening. Couldn’t be happier - he made this process so easy. Thanks so much Josh. If we ever think about selling, we’ll come knocking!

Just sold a property with Taylor Millburn and Josh was fantastic from start to finish. He was friendly and knowledgeable in the first meeting and put me at ease. He kept me in the loop every step of the way with any updates regarding the sale and moved things along very quickly and easily. Would highly recommend him to others looking to buy or sell.

Some examples of service from TM. TM: come look at this house as buyer is desperate to sell so it can be within your budget. TM basically laughed when I made offer at my budget. Me::can you look into these 5 questions ahead of my second viewing. Them: no problem. On arrival at second viewing : no need to answer these as they will be on contents form. Me: no they won’t hence why I asked. Them: oh well. Shows rounds house, doesn’t point out key features that turned out to be total surprises. My favourite being the owners asking for payment for fitted wardrobes. My second coming across a water softener having no knowledge of it’s existence.Lastly my absolute favourite, me going to the brach to collect keys on moving in day, TM: the owner gave us loads of instructions and helpful info for you but can’t remember what they said., anyway here are the keys.

For what was quite a lengthy (and incredibly unlucky) process, Ciaran took over halfway and made such a difference, removing a lot of stress. Super professional, attentive and went above and beyond multiple times including: doing a Sunday visit out of hours, dealing with a useless solicitor, he went out of his way to make a house call during offer negotiations and most recently, checking in after we'd moved to see how we're settling in. His personal touch was something we've never experienced with any estate agent before and would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone looking to move. There's no question who we'll call first when we move next.

As first time buyers Ciaran was amazing and helped put as at ease knowing that we were in the right hands. Ciaran communicated better than our solicitor and helped make our process much easier. I couldn’t think of anyone better to have as part of our first house purchase journey, thank you so so much! We would highly recommend. Alex and Chloe

Ciaran sold the house to us. I believe in good vibes and positivity and we certainly got that from Ciaran at the first instance on the first viewing. Friendly, polite and informative. Arranged viewings to suit our timings and followed through the purchase process efficiently. Thank you, excellent job. Ciaran

I am due to complete on the sale of my house this week. I could not recommend Taylor Millburn enough. Josh and Danny have been fantastic throughout. Josh was always willing to answer any questions (even the stupid ones) we had and was fantastic with my children during viewings - he made the selling experience as stressfree as possible. Danny was also great, his knowlege and experience was truly appreciated. Straight to the point but easy to discuss any concerns or thoughts with, I think this was the perfect balance when trying to negotiate and get a sale through. Could not fault them at all. Would absolutely use them again.

Josh has been amazing from day one. He was clear, precise and answered all of our questions (which was a lot as a first time buyer!). He delivered excellent reassurance the entire time and always kept us updated with the process. We couldn't have asked for someone better to help us buy our first home. Let the renovations begin!

Absolutely awful company. Breach of data protection too. Threatening to enter property with a set of keys. However does not manage the property. Can not enter, so using false threats. Gets cocky and bulshy if you show any resilience. Well done for targeting someone who is already a target of domestic abuse. Disgusting. Shame on you. EDIT- to your reply. I was hounded by your director Danny Fisher at your Braintree branch. To the point I’ve blocked his number now. Harassing me when my tenancy is with a different estate agents just because he wants a sale of the property I’m in! I’ll HAPPILY screenshot and share his text messages on here if you like!

--TLDR-- If you are looking to rent in Colchester, you can probably get at least 10-15% off of their asking rate for rent. Mainly because they are too far away from Colchester to present the property themselves half of the time. We also noticed the rent for our house was reduced while it was on the market before and after we left. Communication is very poor, particularly from Danny claiming incorrect phone numbers for not responding to our calls/messages and especially when chasing for our deposit. We had successfully contacted him previously on these numbers and they were both advertised on his email signature and on Taylor Milburn's website They tried to deduct 30% of our deposit - we conceded about 10% but the DPS sided with us and gave us back 20% plus interest. --Long-read-- We wouldn't have lumped it with Taylor Milburn if we had the choice. We were renting originally with Elms Price and we had a house purchase fall through and were in a bind so stayed on with the change of property managers. We first met Danny from Taylor Milburn prior to the switch in property management and he had gloated that he already sweet-talked the landlord into saying they could earn more by raising rent by 30% (we learnt that we were the first house of this landlord's property portfolio to be moved over and they have now moved all of the properties over since). He also let on that he was a huge fan of Only Fools and Horses starring Del Boy (look up 'foreshadowing' in a dictionary). We weren't provided with a new tenancy agreement for the following 9 months we were there, but we did have to agree with the raise in rent of over 20%. In comparison, it took Elms Price two working days to send someone to check and repair our dishwasher - for Taylor Milburn, the engineer arrived in one day but the advice to ultimately replace the dishwasher was ignored and no action (including repair) was made for the last six weeks of our tenancy. Two days before we were intending to leave the property we got a call from Lee of Taylor Milburn for the following: 1) To have a gas safety test on the same day - frustrating as we were packing, but doable. 2) That someone was coming to view the house at 8am morning the following day, when we were moving out most of our belongings that day but were given the excuse that the viewer was from London so the time could not be rearranged. Also no staff member from Taylor Milburn will be at the viewing as it was the Staff Christmas party that night. However, the engineer had left the gas off, and we were left with an error on the boiler. We had contacted Taylor Milburn when this had happened but it was the staff Christmas do. I received one question on WhatsApp about the error code, which I replied to and then radio-silence. It was below 0 in mid-December, so what was meant to be our last night in the house, we ended up staying at my partner's mother's house instead. We ended up getting back to the house at 8am the following morning to show this potential tenant the freezing house, filled with boxes. At previous viewings (half with Lee, and half with no agent) we were asked whether the place was furnished, something which was seemingly unadvertised/ not communicated well enough by Taylor Milburn which felt like a waste of time for everyone involved. Lee would also ask questions to us about the house when showing prospective tenants around that were either irrelevant (the house's age) or information they should have known beforehand. On leaving, Danny took over a month to confirm the deduction through the Deposit Protection Service website. This was after extensive chasing with Danny and the inventory company. One of the many times we tried to call Taylor Milburn, Lee had said that the problem with DPS in that it makes reimbursing the deposit slower. So I would say make sure they use the DPS or another TDP or they are otherwise breaking the law! We managed to get through to Danny by luck two weeks before he confirmed deductions and then proceeded to feign that he had not received our comms.
