Superb communication at all stages. We had a difficult house to sell and at all stages the hive were extremely helpfful and eventually sold for us. A difficult buyer but again handled very well

The team were all fantastic and made a very stressful process as easy as they could, through regular updates, chasing and challenging third parties and being a sounding board when curve balls came in. I would highly recommend the team at the hive if you are thinking about moving. Massive thank you for all of your support and for keeping things on track all the way through. Great people, personal approach brilliant!!

Super service which made a difficult job a positive experience. Very attentive staff - who kept me updated throughout the whole process - from valuation to final completion. Felt totally stress free and in safe hands - which I wasn’t expecting when selling my parents home in difficult circumstances. Highly recommended.

Got a valuation in September 2022 £60k overvalued, put on Rightmove on 1st December heard nothing for 6 weeks no calls no email no updates nothing. Emailed agent supposedly looking after us she explained she had been on holiday, we complained sent emails etc expressing the lack of communication in 6 weeks, we then decided to walk away after weeks of no viewings, this was not an easy task as we were verbally shouted at and basically told we would have to pay them the fee for house sale etc, I explained we had copies of all emails etc of the failings of Hive eventually we got it in writing that they would not chase us for fees. We went with another agent early this year house was revalued at proper price, got a buyer but sadly her house sale fell through In September 23 this year a lady who sold her property through Hive put in an offer for our house, all was going well then boom chain was supposedly broken my agent thought I had pulled out of the offer, no more calls from Hive, couldn't contact my buyer. Sometimes being to complacent as an Estate Agent because you have the majority of sales in the area comes back to bite you

As a landlord, I can highly recommend The Property Hive (particularly Ruby) for full management services. I switched letting agents, after a terrible, terrible experience with another local company (that I was recommended by the person I bough the property off). Please read the fantastic reviews from the Property Hive to make sure you avoid this with another company. Ruby has had to deal with various issues which were either not sorted by the previous agent, or claimed to have been sorted and weren’t. With each issue she has swiftly got tradesmen out to quote and checked for approval with me before authorising any works. I don’t live locally so it’s invaluable to have someone efficient (and friendly) to resolve issues at the property and so it’s a hands off investment. Also, to ensure the tenants feel looked after and issues are resolved for them (which they weren’t previously). I’ve mainly dealt with Ruby, but have spoken to other colleagues on the phone at the beginning, who are equally as friendly and helpful. Highly recommend for landlord services and I will use them to find future tenants, or for when I sell the property later down the line.

Agent replied · 26 November 2023

Alice, renting out your home can be a daunting prospect and as you can testify, not every company is the same or takes their responsibility seriously. Here at The Property Hive we recognise the needs of our tenants and landlords and colleagues like Ruby are professionals dedicated to serving our customer's best interests. Thank you once again for taking the time to share your experiences.

I met Sylvia when she came out to value the property and found her to be very knowledgeable and professional. She obviously is very experienced and competent. Since that initial meeting she has been very quick to respond to queries It has also been a very positive experience when contacting the office and speaking with other staff. I highly recommend Property Hive

Alan · 27 October 2023 · The Property Hive Bessacarr

We simply cannot thank Lorraine and the team at The Property Hive for their OUTSTANDING support, approach and professional determination in helping my family close the deal on our dream home. Every time we approached with a concern or problem, it was resolved - quickly, efficiently and effectively. The level of communication throughout was first class, the entire team was read in so understood where in the process we were and were therefore able to advise, encourage and negotiate between all parties involved to deliver a result we are delighted with. Without the proactive engagement of Lorraine and the team, we would not be moving as soon as we are. First class service all round from all at The Property Hive Doncaster! Thank you so much.

James from Hive was extremely helpful and professional. Nothing was too much trouble, providing multiple access requests, often at short notice and going out of his way to support us in our purchase, even on some ancillary queries. Professional and knowledgeable, I’d highly recommend Hive.

Hive and James Evans have been wonderful. Their photos and brochures are well done and we've had an offer in under a week. Hopefully the sale will proceed to completion but, if not, I'm sure James will do his utmost to help us again. Highly recommended.

Amazing agents!! Colin from Hive has been incredible thought out our sale. Selling our property before it went to market. We have had many hurdles along the way with our forward purchase, Colin did all the chasing doing the job of other agents. He has been absolutely incredible! We can not thank him enough for all of his hard work and determination. If you are looking for somebody to sell your property I could not recommend Colin from Hive enough.

James Evans at Hive has been absolutely fantastic handling the sale of my house. It was not an easy sale with problems along the way, but his years of experience really paid off and resulted in us exchanging contracts just before Christmas. It wouldn’t have happened without his help and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Hive if you are thinking of selling. They are a cut above the rest!

Colin has been such a huge help with advertising my grandmothers property, we are yet to sell because of family complications, however Colin has still been on the ball with the sale and helped us out massively along the way. Very professional and so incredibly helpful. We will with no hesitation put the house back on with Colin as we feel he is very trustworthy and reliable. Thanks for all your help, we are so grateful :)
