Impeccable service with care and an eye for Detail.

Many of my very dear friends who have used the services of Bee’s Homes have again and again said what a brilliant service they received from Ana and her team. From day one each said that her knowledge, expertise, attention to detail, the amazing way she dressed their homes up to allows the very best representation of them all was exemplary. Her and her team’s knowledge of the local housing market has helped my friends who were either buying or selling their properties to get a better understanding of what to expect. More so is her wonderful communication prowess, which is always without fault, from being on hand at most any time of the day to always ensuring that all parties are kept up to date and very well informed. Bee’s Homes is one of the most respected estate agents in the local area, one that is highly trusted, and I would and have highly recommend Ana and her to anyone that was looking to buy or sell their home.

Every few months we receive an unwanted…

Every few months we receive an unwanted and unsolicited communication from Bees Homes which appears to be begging for clients who happen to reside in high value homes.I posted this on a local forum and it appears that a number of home owners have received these communications and one of them suggested that these letters may breach data regulations. Whether they do, or not, they are irritating!This company appears to be operating out of an economical flat in a domestic block in Eastbourne. If we were selling our house we use someone with a proven track record and a high street office.Finally a number of the positive reviews on Trustpilot seem to contain the same type of phrases and are written in the same style. They are also from people with very few reviews. Perhaps Trustpilot is not particularly on the ball spotting fake reviews!

Heads and Shoulders Above The Rest

Having had several estate agents come to our home with the potential of working with us for our sale, we chose what we thought was the best one. We had a bespoke property that required attention to detail and a personalised service to find the right buyer; we were deeply disappointed when we received a sub standard, generic brochure and anonymous service from the estate agent we originally chose.... Luckily for us, this is where Bees Homes stepped in and simply changed everything! Recommended through a friend, Ana and her team have delivered beyond our wishes. Caring, attentive and professional service, with prompt management of the sale. Having Ana and her teams' support to aid the sale process has been an immeasurable betterment on previous experiences. We got the price we wanted, a happy buyer for our house and a swift pain free process. We are delighted and would recommend highly. Thank you Bees Homes!

Ive know Ana a few years now and when i decided to sell my first home i knew Ana would be the lady for the job!! She staged our property making it look amazing in the photos which really made it stand out from all the other properties advertised on Right move. She made sure any potential buyers were serious candidates before even considering a viewing which weeded out any time wasters As this was a first time property sale for us she really held our hand through the process as we were very green behind the ears when it come to selling a property. Whenever an issue arose she was first on the phone to speak to all parties involved to keep the process moving. I would not hesitate to recommend you to friends and family Thanks so much Ana and team for all your great work!!!!PositiveQuality

Great service. We had a constant stream of potential buyers view our home and it sold in days for much more than other agents valued the house at. Ana and the team produced a stunning brochure which presented our house like something out of Homes & Gardens Magazine.

YOU CAN JUDGE AN AGENT BY HOW THEY RESPOND IN A CRISIS!. We had a few in selling and buying. Ana and Bees Homes were there for us whenever we needed them, no matter the time or day. The presentation of the flat, Ana took so much care and attention getting our property presented to its optimal potential (it took her over 2 hours photographing for the best pictures). As a result it was sold in less than a week of her initial visit and for more than the asking price. Ana then helped us secure the right property and negotiated on our behalf. At one point when it looked as though the chain might collapse, Ana arranged for a local builder to come out on a Saturday and price a bit of remedial work in order to get exchange of contracts. Ana recommended a local conveyancer who worked as hard as the Bees and between them made a good team in getting the sale/purchases moving at a steady speed. Bees Homes is highly rated and its easy to see why. Theirs is a personal and caring service with no hard sell, just honest and dedicated. They truly go the extra mile. Thank you Bees Homes, especially Ana.

Ana of Bees Homes and the team that work with her are head and shoulders in service, initiative and imagination above any other estate agents I have engaged in Eastbourne. It was so refreshing to work with people who really cared about you getting the best price for your property. Ana is a top negotiator by the way. She helps you present your property so that it increases in value. Ana works with Anne-Marie Smith of MW solicitors and she is another big plus in the whole process, making the legal side as painless as possible. Scott advises you on mortgages and knows the territory well. Can’t recommend them highly enough. Elda Abramson

When we decided to put our home on the market we contacted all of the estate agents in our town and invited them over to value our house. The “local” agents knew Hailsham, but they felt like they were out for themselves and some even talked down to us. I remembered Ana from a local networking event and invited Ana to come and value our home. What a breath of fresh air... Ana was knowledgeable and friendly. She was honest about our expectations and able to give us advice on presenting the house. Ana was approachable and keen to be our agent. We felt like Ana was in this with us as opposed to being in it for herself. One other benefit of Bees Homes was that viewings were not restricted to office hours and Saturdays. We were told we could arrange the viewings at times suitable to us and the viewer, even on Sundays if required. This was not a service the “local” companies could offer. We decided to go with Ana and asked her to help us sell our home. We arranged a day for the photographs of our property to be taken. Ana turned up with a plethora of props to help dress our home and make it more appealing to possible buyers. With Ana’s interior design background we were in good hands and the photos turned out really well. Our property was put on the market and on all of the property websites really quickly. Within 2 days we had 2 viewings booked, both of which resulted in offers. After some excellent negotiation from Ana we had an offer we were really happy with and a buyer who was in a good position to proceed with the purchase of our property. Bees Homes were able to be on hand via mobile and text whenever we needed them, not just office hours. When our buyer had any questions we had a text or call instantly so we were able to resolve queries really quickly. It’s been very difficult dealing with the “traditional” agent we are buying through when they don’t answer the shop phone, or when messages go missing. When we have had questions about the property we are buying it’s taken days sometimes just to get these queries resolved. This is a problem we have never had with Bees Homes. We have recently exchanged and Ana & Hayley have been on hand every step of the way to help us with the selling process, even offering to help us negotiate on the purchase of the property we were moving in to. We are over the moon that we chose Ana and her team from Bees Homes. They really have made this process as stress free as it can be. Thank you!

I would highly recommend Bees Homes. Ana and her team were amazing throughout our sale, right from start to finish, going above and beyond any other estate agent!! 5* Anas experience and knowledge on how to make our home even more appealing using her interior design skills meant for a quicker sale during these unprecedented times (it must've been the lucky giraffe 🤣) A big thank you to Scott for his part in arranging our mortgage and getting the best deal for us. I would like to mention a big thank you to Anne-Marie at MW Solicitors who was always contactable when required and very helpful.

I have just sold my house using Bees…

I have just sold my house using Bees homes following a recommendation. From my initial enquiry through to the completion of the sale Ana was on hand to make the sale as easy as possible. Ana met me at the property and worked her magic and made the property look stunning through her photos of the interior. The house was sold in a matter of days and Ana recommend a local solicitor who worked with both of us to make the sale simple and I was able to complete in 7 weeks, would have been quicker if it wasn’t for Christmas. Ana was on hand 7 days a week to answer any queries I had and always responded promptly. I would definitely recommend Ana and Bees Homes to sell my house.

We have just bought our first home with Ana and I couldn't rate her highly enough, she made the whole process painless from the offer being accepted to exchange only taking 4 weeks Ana knows how to move things fast, It wasnt a problem to go and look at the property a couple of times out of 'office hours' Ana was always just a phonecall away 7 days a week with any of questions we had and I felt like I could make a phonecall if I needed any advice. Bee's home's will give you a professional and personal service rather then being treated like another number. I will be recommending them to family and friends, thanks again :)

We have just sold our property with Ana at BEES HOMES. Ana sold our property within 4 days and the service we received from Ana was second to none. Ana definitely went above and beyond our expectations. Ana gave us excellent advice to ensure we sold our property and it worked. I would highly recommend BEES HOMES for the 1-1 24/7 commitment from them. Ana also introduced us to Scott who found us a great deal for our mortgage and would also recommend his services. On top of this Ana advices us on a solicitor Anne-Marie at MW Solicitors who were brilliant from start to finish. Go to BEES HOMES for all you selling/buying needs. You will not be disappointed. A big thank you from myself and Vickie to Ana and her team x

Great communication from day one. Where do I begin? Without Bees Homes the sale of my property would not have gone ahead as they worked tirelessly often at unsociable hours to make it happen. When our original buyer withdrew they found a replacement almost immediately, keeping us updated on every development as well as helping to negotiate our purchase. They kept the chain informed throughout and were invaluable on completion day when the banking system went down and it looked as though some of us would be homeless! Fortunately because of Bees Homes close contact with the solicitors they recommended everyone had a roof over their heads. I cannot recommend Scott and Ana highly enough. If you want a professional straight talking team that "does what it says on the tin" then appoint Bees Homes.

After more than a year we have finally exchanged and complete next week. Ana never gave up,! She was always committed and kept us motivated right until the end. Ana is loyal, thoughtful and most of all sympathetic and trustworthy. She’s always been available to contact, 7 days a week 12 hours a day. It’s been a journey! One we couldn’t have got through without Ana at Bees Homes. Thank you Ana & Scott - Bees Homes for everything! 🐝 🐝 🐝

We first met lovely Ana in May, she was professional from the beginning, she has a wonderful eye for interiors and I believe that is her background, we had a buyer before we even went on the market! Unfortunately through no fault of bees that fell through and within no time we were back under offer! We have just exchanged contracts and we can’t praise Bees enough, always there anytime day or night, happy to answer any questions however trivial. Thank you Ana and Scott for all your help and advice.

After 2 years of planning to move to Eastbourne from London, we started to view properties almost every weekend. Very stressful. I was in touch with no less than 6 Estate Agents - 2 are from a big chain of Estate Agents, who simply opened the door and let me in without giving much info about the property! Some of them turned up late too. Then there's Bees Homes. Scott and Ana were both waiting for me when I booked to view 2 properties. They gave me enough info not only about the houses but also the area. The conversation flowed. I bought one of their properties in Sept 2017. I had to visit my new property a few times prior to completion and Scott made time to give me access to the property (even on his day off!) That's a service which is difficult to match! Ana made sure the house had all the facilities in operation i.e water, etc. Nothing seems to be too big or too much to do for Ana and Scott. They took the stress out of moving in to our new home. I would highly recommend Bees Homes to property buyers and sellers alike. Can't thank them enough. Simply impressive. Thank you!

My girlfriend and I have just bought our first home and the whole process was made as easy and stress free as buying a house can be thanks to Bees homes! Ana has been brilliant, along with the solicitors she recommended for us; they have both been amazing. Both have responded to emails, phone calls and messages at all time of the day, 7 days a week.. We also had Scott sort our mortgage out for us and he made it all very easy to understand and even came round to our house to explain it all in person. We shall seek out people to recommend Bees homes to! Thanks again Ana and Scott!

Bees Homes and Ana made the sale of our flat about as painless as property selling can be. Ana is a great communicator and very skilled in liaising between parties and keeping things moving, and obviously has a wealth of experience in the field. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this agency. We are also being assisted by Scott, their in house mortgage advisor who has been excellent also. Thanks to Ana and Bees Homes for doing a grand job.

Bees Homes, with whom we recently completed our house purchase, were amazing. Although not working for us, we felt that we should have been paying them! At all times, Ana and her team, were swift, honest and reliable. They really knew the house and gave a warmth to the whole purchase, whilst remaining totally professional throughout.

Five Star Service

I received a five star service from a five star team (Ana, Lydia and Gemma) during the sale of my house in Eastbourne. From the stylish brochure they produced to the viewing and selling process the service was excellent and very professional. I would thoroughly recommend Ana and her team at Bees Homes who will give you quality service the best I have ever received.
