GoogleI recommend using a traditional Estate Agent like Property Explorer for your house sale. Do not be tempted by the budget online DIY Estate Agents. They seem like a good idea at the time, but when your sale collapses due to the snail-slow progression and lack of support, you will wish you had opted for a proper Estate Agent.
Although there was not a Property Explorer near me, I had used them for 3 previous house sales and trusted them implicitly. The professional photos were taken and my listing was online at Right Move in super-quick time.
Property Explorer were able to manage the queries and issues from me, my buyer, seller and both solicitors. There were different requirements and timelines from all parties, but Property Explorer managed all expectations with ease. In fact, Property Explorer managed the whole process seamlessly, from start to finish. I have just exchanged contracts on my sale and purchase and I am delighted. Amazing service! Thank you!!

Hi Lucy,
Thank you so much for your wonderful review and for trusting The Property Explorer once again with your move. It really means a lot to us that you chose to work with us for a fourth time, even without a local branch nearby, that level of trust is something we never take for granted.
Congratulations on your exchange, we’re thrilled we could help you reach this milestone. Thank you again for your kind words and continued support.

GoogleBuying my first home with the support of Kevin went quite smoothly.
He kept me updated, was honest with me even when the news wasn’t always what I wanted to hear, and genuinely helped keep things moving between both sides.
I really appreciated his communication and the way he handled the whole process. I picked up the keys last week and still can’t quite believe it!
Huge thank you to Kevin and the team at The Property Explorer for helping get it over the line.

Google⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Property Explorer, Kevin Cheeseman & Team
We really cannot recommend The Property Explorer highly enough.
From our very first interaction right through to exchange, the service was flawless from top to bottom.
Even at the very beginning, which now feels like a lifetime ago, booking and confirming viewings was handled more efficiently than with any other property we viewed. Communication was clear, prompt and organised. The information pack provided was thorough, and the Rightmove listing itself was detailed and accurate, which immediately gave us confidence in the professionalism of the business.
Oliver, who showed us around initially, was professional, knowledgeable and gave us space to properly view the property without pressure. Danny Low handled the offer stage calmly and fairly, helping both sides reach agreement smoothly and transparently.
The real standout throughout was Kevin Cheeseman.
Kevin’s sales progression was exceptional. During what became a very stressful and delay-ridden conveyancing process (outside of the agent’s control), Kevin was proactive, persistent and completely on top of the chain. He chased solicitors, maintained communication between all parties, and ensured momentum never completely stalled.
As buyers, not even the direct client of the agent, we felt supported throughout. That speaks volumes about Kevin’s professionalism and integrity.
When things became tense, Kevin remained calm, solutions-focused and highly responsive. We genuinely believe the transaction could have fallen apart without his involvement.
If we ever come to sell this property, The Property Explorer will be our first call. We would confidently recommend them to anyone looking to sell their home.
Outstanding service from start to finish.

GoogleWe recently rented a property through The Property Explorer, and the experience was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Megan Everett, the Lettings Manager, provided exceptional service throughout the entire process. She kept in regular contact, explained everything clearly, and made the whole journey stress-free.

GoogleWhen we needed a quick sale to secure our new home, we met with Ollie Brooks and took his advice on how we approached the sales strategy, and they delivered for us - and more - in every way. All our viewings went ahead as planned, with Mark single handedly managing over 20+ viewings over the course of just a few days and was the perfect ambassador for our home. Every single appointment turned up which shows the due diligence they put in up front with potential buyers. When it came to offers, we worked with Danny Low, who negotiated brilliantly and seamlessly for us, giving us sound, considered advice. So, not only was their approach spot on to start with, they are all deeply professional, passionate about what they do and are genuinely lovely people to work with. We couldn’t have been in safer hands, we secured the house we wanted which is all down to their team. Faultless service at every step from the initial phone call - couldn’t ask for more.

GoogleKevin and Rachel were fantastic from start to finish. We sold 2 flats through property explorer, at full asking price, and then purchased our new house through them too.
Our initial dealings were with Rachel, she was always friendly and professional and guided us through the sales our both of our flats and was flexible and communicative when arranging viewings.
Once our flats had sold, Kevin then stepped in to support through the actual sales. We luckily ended up finding our dream home was one that property explorer were also selling which made the process smoother. Kevin was friendly, professional and answered any questions we had through the 6 months it took to complete on our house. Kevin was brilliant in terms of chasing others in the chain, including solicitors and helping get any questions and enquiries answered.
We would highly recommend property explorer and received a great service that we were very happy with ☺️

GoogleWe went to view a house and instantly fell in love. From that moment, Kevin and the entire Property Explorer team moved heaven and earth to help us make it ours, while also selling our other two properties with ease. I’d highly recommend them to anyone starting that journey. It’s never a stress-free process, but these guys genuinely took away as much pressure as possible and made it all feel effortless.
They also recommended Rowberry Morris in Tadley, who we hadn’t heard of before, and wow, they were outstanding. Fast replies, proactive communication, and constant drive to keep the chain aligned. They went above and beyond to make sure everything came together. Can’t fault them one bit!

GoogleProperty Explorer are, quite simply, brilliant. As a Landlord I have used the Lettings team and found Megan to be particularly efficient, focused, and a good ear to run ideas through.
I have just sold my house through PE too and have been thrilled with the support provided by manager Kevin Cheeseman in the Sales team. I have been thoroughly supported at each stage from evicting my tenants to completion of the sale. Kevin is extremely kind, supportive, trustworthy, reassuring and knowledgeable - he truly excels in his role.
For my house sale to complete within just ten weeks of the offer being accepted is certainly testament to the consistent professionalism and excellence of this company.
Having tried other agencies, this is the only one I recommend. Use Property Explorer; don’t waste your efforts anywhere else.

GoogleTop class Estate Agents. We had to sell our family home after the deaths of our parents, which in itself was a very emotional hard task to go through. However from the first contact through the process of selling our home, both Dan Low and Kevin Cheeseman have been outstanding. Full of compassion,empathy and patience with us. All members of the team that had any dealings with our property, including those who were showing potential buyers round were respectful to the property and very mindful of how this property came to market. They updated us, in detail at each step of the process. And happy to go at a pace which was comfortable for me, as letting go of my parent's house was really really hard.
They made this process flow smoothly and without any problems. I would highly recommend this company to sell any house of mine.
They recommended a very good solicitor, Rowberry Morris in Tadley. Who I found to be professional, friendly, compassionate and empathetic to our situation. In particular with the two lovely ladies I was dealing with, Tracy Greenhalgh and Hayley Butler were kind and filled me with confidence and also updated me through every step of the process, which ran smoothly with no problems.
Both Estate Agents and solicitors were very reasonably priced.
Id like to say a massive thank you to everyone involved for looking after me so well, and making this process so much less painful 😁

GoogleOur house had been on the market (with another agent) for a couple of months, with little interest being shown and only one viewing taking place where the buyer had not been properly qualified. I spoke with Ollie at TPE as I was concerned about the lack of interest the house was attracting… he highlighted several issues with the marketing and approach from the other agent who just seemed to want to reduce the sell price as a quick-fix, and we discussed ways this could be improved/how TPE could help.
Ollie was patient, thorough and flexible in both his approach and the options he offered us.
Long story short we instructed Ollie at TPE and the property was marketed by both agencies going forwards.. We went to market with hugely improved photographs, a ‘premium listing’ on Rightmove, and a dedicated team at TPE who worked to promote our property and to actually qualify buyers. Within a week TPE had 2 viewings booked and we received an offer shortly afterwards which was very close to our asking price.
The original agent had advised us to reduce our property (by over £70,000) to have ‘any hope’ of selling - working on a fixed rate they seemed keen to push us to reduce the price safe in the knowledge they would still receive the same fee whilst we lost a large amount of money - so to receive this offer through a qualified TPE buyer was incredible, not only had they secured a buyer really quickly but they had achieved a much better sale for us, literally within a couple of weeks.
Ollie showed a great deal of patience and understanding throughout the onboarding/instruction process and was always honest and upfront with me at every turn which I believe is so important. Throughout the whole process the communication from TPE has been excellent and they have proved time and time again that there are estate agents, and then there’s *ESTATE AGENTS*
We have now exchanged contracts, and should complete our sale within the next three weeks.. I would wholeheartedly recommend Ollie and his team at TPE. They are trustworthy, open and honest and have been a pleasure to deal with throughout each stage of our journey.
Thank you Ollie.

TrustpilotProperty Explorer - What an Excellent Estate Agent
I decided to use Property Explorer again for my current house move, even though I am probably 200+ miles away, without a local branch.
I did ‘not’ consider using a budget online Estate Agent. In my experience sales progression from a budget online Estate Agent is either not a service they offer, or something they aren’t very good at. Don’t be fooled by the cheap fees, it will end in tears when your sale collapses! Rant over…
Instead, I put my complete trust in Property Explorer and I am so glad I did. They were able to manage all of those tricky stages for me, from negotiating an acceptable price for my house, to managing seller and buyer expectations and timelines.
As I was buying a new build, I had immense pressure to exchange contracts within 6 weeks, but my buyers were not ready to exchange for another 3 months on top of that! Property Explorer kept everything together, communicating with my buyers and their solicitors to keep everything on track. They really must have some magical powers - there is no other explanation!
Yesterday I exchanged contracts, and I am absolutely delighted. Thank you so much guys!!
