Hunters have been brilliant throughout the process of selling my house. The whole team worked amazingly at all stages of the process. Not only did they get our property listed quickly, they had several existing contacts who were looking for properties in the local area which helped secure multiple offers on my property within a week and achieve a sale well over the expected price. Rob, Laura, Zack and Adam were all great. We were kept up to date at all stages and were always happy to help no matter how small the query was. I recommend them highly to anyone looking for an estate agent. You won’t be disappointed.

Viewed a rental property

Viewed a rental property. I wanted to proceed but then told they wanted to collect more interest and no communication whatsoever. Absolute shocking service and wouldn't recommend at all. Thankfully I got no further with my application, well I guess I don't know cause they never come back to me. What a joke!!

Thank you Jasmine

Hunters delivered an impeccable service from beginning to end. Communication was excellent, and they were always available whenever we needed them. A special thank you to Jasmine, we are incredibly grateful for everything she did.

lettings fees are very high

For lettings their fees are very expensive. First 3 months of my 450 rent studio flat they took and I did not get anything. When tenant leaves another month will be gone as inventory check is 180 and cleaning in 250 and this is for a studio flat. If i want to cancel the contract i have to pay 900. Stay away.

I have only great things to say about Hunters Middleton!

I have only great things to say about Hunters Middleton branch! From the very first phone call right up to exchanging contacts They have been beyond brilliant. I absolutely loved the pictures of my house and the write up most definitely did my house justice. My house sold within 4 days and I was over the moon with the price!Nicole was the shining star for me- she kept in daily contact and was the most reassuring and helpful person every single step of the process. She chased up people when they needed it ensuring the sale moved along at pace. Thank you so much Hunters but especially a massive thank you to Nicole- you have been amazingly!

Disappointed is an understatement..

To say we’re disappointed with the level of communication from the Horncastle Branch with Michael and Susan Noonan is an understatement and the level of service is a far cry from Michael's commitment to customer experience.Researching this branch shows multi-occasions that this activity has happened here.If you’re viewing a property with the intent to buy, don’t expect them to tell you if any other parties are interested. They’ll just pull it from under your feet along with any visions or excitement of a future you had in said house.Viewed a property two weeks ago, following the viewing we had a really positive conversation with Susan in the office expressing great interest, no more than a week later sold to another buyer with no communication. It would have been professional and courteous to reach out to the buyer but more so to the seller, as I’m certain they would like to have known of other interest. Susan and Michael took away any opportunity or chance to put in any offers, resulting in many wasted hours.I wouldn’t usually leave a review; but the tone in which Susan delivered the news was blunt, lacked any sort of empathy and very closed, to date I am still waiting for a reply to my email which I can only assume has been ignored.We will steer clear of this company for future sales and purchases, knowing that their priority doesn’t appear to be with either buyer or seller.Happy to receive a call or email to discuss our experience with you.

"I would just like to provide some feedback on the process so far. I cannot praise you all highly enough and Adam Preston has been wonderful and I cannot believe he is a trainee. From the very first time I contacted your office it has been so efficient and staff have been polite and courteous and nothing is too much trouble. I believe I have dealt with Zac, Laura and Adam and each one of them has delivered a first-class service. I am so pleased I kept their flyer last year which was a brilliant idea to encourage people to contact your office. Well done!PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Hunters are not interested

Hunters let the house adjacent to ours. There have been multiple pipe leaks around the bathroom causing flooding which in turn is causing damp smells on our side due to the length of time taken to address the issues. It's been repaired after four weeks now within hours water is currently coming through the ceiling next door soaking our party wall and they have told the tennant it's livable no problem.

Expert advice! - Thank you Tom Moorhouse!

Expert advice! The lovely Tom Moorhouse came to value our house on 22/08/2026. He gave sound, candid advice which my husband and I are extremely appreciative of. Although we are not in the position to list our house right now (no fault of Tom's), we'll certainly be back within 12 months.

I was unable to easily find, a place to go, to find all houses on hunters books, for sale. As requested by hunters I will elaborate. Not understanding technology is probably the problem. Also I have never house hunted before, so don't know the ropes. I saw a house that said for sale, Hunters est agents. Logically I looked for Hunters est agent on Google. I selected barnsley branch because the house was in Darfield. I clicked on the add for hunters est agent. It opened up lovely, telling me all about the business and staff etc. But It was not obvious to me what to do next in order to see the house I was interested in or all the other houses for sale on Hunters books. I was expecting to see pages of houses for sale from Hunters books and a facility to put in the address and hey presto view the house I wanted to see. It seems I have to go to a tottaly diffrent site. (Somthing I may well have to do whichever estate agent I use, I don't know, because the house is with Hunters.) I was frustrated not to find the house. I then phoned Hunters to say I couldn't find the property digitally, to ask how I could view the property, how to find it digitally and how much was. I was told it was sold.! Therefore had I found the diffrent site I would have probably spent hours trying to find a house that was not for sale. That is why 1 star, because I feel Hunters web site should show me all properties for sale and indicate sold subject to contract, to prevent me wasting hours looking for a property already off the market.

Awful

Awful. Incredibly disorganised. Would establish inspections and never turn up, would constantly email about overdue rent that wasn't overdue. Would pass the blame constantly. Attempted to raise my rent by a "reasonable" £200 a month six months into my tenancy which can only happen every 12 months and cannot be more than the CPI price index; they failed on both counts. Renting is honestly awful, and these clowns pray upon the anxiety of insecurity to get what they want.I have bought a house now, I wish all renters the luck to buy their own homes one day so we never have to deal with letting agents like these ever again.

We were offered a property to rent we views pre Xmas, unbeknown to us this property was advertised without full certificates so it failed the electric test, we have turned down another property for this one, we have to be out of our property in 5 days & they still cannot confirm we are able to move into the property this week after promising wc 8th of Feb would be the week, we viewed this pre Christmas ! ! ! There is a distinct lack of communication & lots of swerving the questions, can not get a straight answer creating a lack of trust We aren’t able to book removals ect as we don’t know if we can move in, the stress is unbelievable yet no one seems to care, having to look at Airbnb & storage as we still don’t have an answer Looked at the property Christmas week, it’s now 10th of February &!we still don’t know what’s happening even though we have been upfront with our situation from the beginning A very disappointing experience

Natalie, Hunters Barnsley do not offer rental properties so you must have dealt with another Hunters branch. Please double check & then please remove the review as it’s not us. If you need to chat then call the office on 01226!447155. Regards Hunters Barnsley

Sales progression team lied and not very professional.

We are in the process of buying a bungalow at the moment and the sales progression team told us the vendor had been to sort the electrics and service the boiler..previous tennants had apparently got in debt so electric was cut off..Hunters lied saying this would be sorted. A second viewing 2 weeks later and a wasted 120 mile journey confirmed nothing had been sorted. When we told them we were disappointed with them we were told to leave the property.

I would completely recommend avoiding…

I would completely recommend avoiding this agency, they are slow to respond, have no information ready at hand and this has possibly been the most annoying process of purchasing a property with them. There was a lot of missing information that I was not provided and they basically only know how to respond when they need something. You will call them and they say they'll get back to you and just disappear. Avoid if possible.

Damaged our house, and we're not even their clients!

Hunters hung a "for sale" sign on our property, which was a surprise to us, since we were neither selling nor letting the property. When asked to take it down, four visible holes have been left in the wall of our home. It has been six and a half weeks, and the holes are still there. In a couple of weeks, we're going to need to escalate this to the ombudsman.

Agent Harj was full of fake promises

Agent Harj was full of fake promises. Although he was all smiles and seemed friendly, the minute we left after our viewing he didn’t return texts or calls and shyed away from any contact. After several calls to the agents I finally managed to find out myself that the property had been given to someone else, rather than them calling me to inform me I had to dig this information out of them which was frustrating. Avoid!

Our experience with Hunters Barnsley has been fantastic. From the very beginning they were prompt and informative, answering all questions we had. They marketed our property quickly and they took charge of this from the outset. When it came to the completion of our property this took far longer than we would have liked but this was nothing to do with Hunters. Laura was amazing - she chased our buyer and their solicitor. She updated us where possible and ensured that we knew what was going on and any developments. The work that Laura has put into ensuring we got a completion date has been amazing and we couldn’t fault her. We would highly recommend Hunters Barnsley as through our experience they have taken care of everything from start to finish. Thankyou!PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Bad communication

I have been trying to contact them for 4 months in regards to my flat and contract but they are absolutely appalling at responses and making things clear and helpful for those they are letting to. They have sent me in so many different directions on who to contact and have stopped responding to me within one week of me first contacting them. On top of this it took them weeks to respond and report to maintenance issues, and when they did the response I got was rude and abrupt. As well as that they issues weren't resolved fully resulting in me feeling uneasy in what was meant to be my own space. Absolutely awful service and wouldn't even consider letting/renting from them again.

I used Hunters of Barnsley in order to sell my parents house after they passed away this year. From start to finish they have been brilliant. They took care of and dealt with everything without needing to bother me with any minor queries. They got the price I wanted. The conveyance solicitor they recommended have also been excellent and done a through professional job with very little fuss. The photographs taken by Rob Watts were first class as was his manner and approach when dealing with me. Which is why I went with Hunters in the first place. I have since been dealing with Laura who has kept me informed all of the way to completion. She was also first class and nothing was too much trouble. I've also dealt with other members of the team and the manager and cannot recommend them enough. I would like to say a big thank you for all your help. Rob Brook
