GoogleAbbie was very friendly and understanding whilst taking photos of our property, the speed in which she was taking the photos I was fearing the worst, but my fears where totally unjustified, the photos exceeded my expectations, my entire family was very impressed with the end result and our property is very well represented. Thank you Abbie I would 100% recommend you 😊

GoogleDo not be fooled by this estate agent’s description of their properties. False advertising at its finest. This property is advertised as minutes away from sandbanks beach when in actual fact it is over an hours walk away, if you were to drive to sandbanks it would take you a week as the traffic is ridiculous, especially in the summer months, also this property is opposite the courts and the old run down civic centre which has problems with drug users and thieves loitering in the area. The traffic is horrendous outside this property, which they are not showing the view from the front of the property, constant traffic noise and pollution. Ashley cross is not a village as they proclaim, again a built up congested area. In a nutshell this property is not what they advertise it to be, unfortunately the area is not as nice as it once was. To many greedy property developers building in every tiny space. Also the large blue property next to these two plots has been sold and that will no doubt be knocked down and have 2-3 high new builds built there towering over this property blocking sunlight and having no privacy whatsoever. Absolutely shocking that they are asking for over a million for this. No thanks you would have to pay me to move in there.
Dear Jenna, We are very sorry if you found our listing to be misleading. We wanted to address some of your concerns that you have highlighted. 1. "This property is advertised as minutes away from sandbanks beach when in actual fact it is over an hours walk away, if you were to drive to sandbanks it would take you a week as the traffic is ridiculous, especially in the summer months, also this property is opposite the courts and the old run down civic centre which has problems with drug users and thieves loitering in the area." The property is situated 3.1 miles from Sandbanks beach, which based on Google Maps, would take approximately 9 minutes to drive and 1 hour six minutes to walk. Your claim that "it would take you a week" is somewhat inaccurate. With regard to the Courts being opposite, yes this is a fact that with very little research a prospective buyer can find out. In order to assist with this research, we provide a very clear map for people to review on all of our advertising. In addition, there are pictures on our listing clearly showing the court opposite. 2. "The traffic is horrendous outside this property, which they are not showing the view from the front of the property, constant traffic noise and pollution." We have not hidden the fact that this property is on Sandbanks Road, in fact we have gone as far as to provide drone imagery of the overall area which shows the civic centre and the road outside of the properties. In the picture you will see there is traffic - it’s a busy road, we can’t and wouldn't hide it. 3. "Ashley cross is not a village as they proclaim, again a built-up congested area." Ashley Cross is often referred to as a village due its community feel. Bustling with boutique shops, trendy bars, patisseries, coffee shops and fashionable eateries. 4. "Also the large blue property next to these two plots has been sold and that will no doubt be knocked down and have 2-3 high new builds built there towering over this property blocking sunlight and having no privacy whatsoever." There are currently no planning applications showing this claim. Again, this is misleading and inaccurate. 5. Absolutely shocking that they are asking for over a million for this. No thanks you would have to pay me to move in there. You are entitled to you opinion of course - but you are correct, we wouldn't pay you to move in there - that's a bit of a strange business model if we did! We have also checked our database and can see that you have made no attempt to book a viewing. We hope that you have a fantastic day and have luck with your own property search, and we are very sorry that this was not the one for you. 🙏🏻

GoogleI cannot recommend Hive and Partners highly enough! My flat had been on the market for several months with another agent who had not managed to sell, despite having numerous viewings. Within a week of being on the market with Hive it was sold. Paul was excellent and was there throughout the process to support, make calls where necessary and ensure the sale went as smoothly as possible. The reassurance of Hive's experience, professionalism and care was invaluable and I am so grateful.
Sarah, its been great to help you get moved. Nothing pleases us more than people seeing how good agency should be done. Paul is a brilliant addition to our team, its great that buyers and sellers experience his level of professionalism.
5/5
GoogleHave to say the service was exceptional. A difficult sale made easy by Paul. He is friendly, Helpful and highly professional. I cannot recommend Paul enough. If you want your house sold better phone Paul.
Thank you so much Colin for your lovely review. We are super proud that Paul Dehon is part of our business - he is a suburb agent! We hope that Paul can help you, or friends/family of yours in the future.
5/5
GoogleRobyne and Nicole were very efficient and professional from start to finish on my property purchase. I dealt with James up until the offer was excepted and he was absolutely amazing from when I met him until he handed me the keys over words will not explain how understanding, how professional and how he looked after us until the end I’ve dealt with plenty of sales people in my lifetime but James was a breath of fresh air.
5/5
GoogleGreat service from James and Robyn with updates and thoughtful communication when buying our new home. Such a lovely happy company from our initial offer right through to completion. Prosecco and card much appreciated.
5/5
GooglePaul took on our property after we had a very disappointing experience with another agent. The team came in took some great photo's and drone footage of the property and got straight to work. We had several viewings which lead to the sale. Paul kept in contact and provided weekly updates on the number of hits the house was getting. If your thinking of selling give Hive a chance.

GoogleI had a fantastic experience working with Chanel. She was personable and professional throughout the process, always on hand for a call to answer any questions or discuss concerns. Chanel managed the relationship between myself and the buyer brilliantly, ensuring everything ran smoothly and efficiently. Thanks to her and Robyne's support, the transaction was completed swiftly and without stress.
Thank you for the feedback Emma! We are pleased that you were able to get the sale over the line. "Completed swiftly and without stress" we can't ask for more than that!

GoogleNick Beavan recently carried out a property valuation for our family, and he was absolutely brilliant. He was incredibly knowledgeable, took the time to explain everything clearly, and answered all of our questions with patience and professionalism. We felt completely confident in his expertise throughout the process. What a great agent, highly recommended!
5/5
GoogleWe have just had one of the most professional and comprehensive viewings of a property by an estate agent. Although it wasn’t the house for us, the time and effort taken by Tracy Dwight of Hive and Partners to show us round and bring the place alive made it a pleasure to view. For once we didn’t feel in the least rushed, Tracy knew the property thoroughly and could answer all our questions. Thank you Tracy - I’m sure the property owners will find the perfect buyers soon.
5/5
GoogleHive and Tracey in particular were absolutely brilliant, nothing was ever too much trouble and they smoothed what was quite a difficult purchase really effectively. If Carlsberg did estate agents….
Pete! What a great review thank you so much for your kind words. You have a cracking property there in a lovely part of the world. We hope that you are very happy in your new home and we are very glad that you received the HIVE experience that we love our Partners to demonstrate.
5/5
GooglePaul & the HIVE Team, Thank you so much for helping us finally get over the line in selling our house! After months of trying with another agent, you came in like a breath of fresh air, fabulous service, wonderful photos of our property, and had a decent offer within 4 days! What more could we have asked for! Would highly recommend you to everyone!
5/5
GooglePaul was simply superb: helpful, insightful, and a delight to work with. Ultimately, he sold my property in short order thanks to his fresh approach to marketing and willingness to go the extra mile. He kept me informed at every stage, even though I was out of area by the time the sale was going through. I would highly recommend Paul and HIVE & Partners. Thank you so much!
