Out of all the letting agents I’ve ever rented from the property explorer exceeding by miles, Wendy was always at the end of the phone to help and made everything easy and stress free. Would 10000% recommend you will not be disappointed

TrustpilotEverything we could have asked for
The Property Explorer were everything we could have wanted from an estate agent. They were trustworthy and always had our best interests at heart. They were excellent to communicate with, extremely knowledgeable and kept us going through the process. We would highly recommend.

TrustpilotWork tirelessly to get the job done
Our move was far from straight forward but the property explorer did everything they could to ensure our chain went through. Out of everyone involved in the moving process, these guys worked the hardest over the 8 months it took for us to complete. They are approachable, informative and very hard working. We will be forever grateful that they managed to make it all happen for us. Special thanks to Oliver, Ollie, Will and George.

Google85 year old loved this team!
They took on my mum's house and from the moment Oliver Brooks stepped through the door to introduce himself and his company, my mum was put at ease to such an extent that she engaged his services straight away. Our whole family were very impressed with the way he dispelled the negative image of estate agents by being realistic in what the market was doing, how he would market my mum's house and explaining what she could expect over the next few months.
Mum loved the way she was treated, feeling well looked after in phone calls and very friendly visits when showing viewers around. Considering she hates people in her home, they did an outstanding job.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

GoogleProperty Explorer :-) a customer focused team - start to finish.
From the first phone call - all along the rocky road to completion the Property Explorer team is really there for you.
The seamless transitions from valuation, exceptional property marketing, viewer screening/scheduling and handling the offer. Through exemplary financial support, sensible and experienced support in the chain navigating the emotionally draining "when will our lives be back on track" all the way to starting your new life. Property Explorer understand the customer and have the right team led in the right way.
Was it a pleasure? - moving never is, but the team at Property Explorer will get you as close as they can - BRAVO

GoogleWe were recommended Property Explorer when we decided to sell our home. It was the best advice we could have had and will not fail to recommend them in the future.
All the staff at Property Explorer have always been professional and at the same time approachable in their dealings with us. From Oliver who first came to see us about putting our house on the market, Karen who arranged the viewings for us, Gen who showed the buyers around, Dan and Kevin who must have got fed up with us contacting them for information when things seemed to be stagnating further down our chain. Well, what can we say about Kevin that has not already been said? Always on the ball. Chasing solicitors and estate agents for information without being asked to do so. Keeping us in the loop. If things ever got a bit stressful he was always able to put our minds at rest. Professional to the last.
Estate agents do tend to have a bad name for whatever reason. Property Explorer is the exception! We are not saying that everything has run smoothly from the start but the problems that did arrive were nothing to do with Property Explorer and with their team on board they managed to sort things out quickly and efficiently.
So, in a final comment, if you find that you are in need of an estate agent please choose PROPERTY EXPLORER. You will not be sorry.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

GoogleI can't recommend these agents highly enough if you want a personable, professional, mature and experienced team looking after your property sale or purchase. I bought my flat from The Property Explorer and remembered how sensible and helpful they were when I was bidding for it as a FTB. I then needed the The Property Explorer 5 years later to secure a quick sale of the flat -and they didn't disappoint, even when market conditions were challenging. From the first meeting to the brilliant photos and video that were taken, the agents really take the time to get to know your position and put a lot of effort into selling your property, which means less stress for you! In fact the whole team will offer you advice, and support you through the process at every stage. On a personal level, it also a pleasure to deal with The Property Explorer team - thanks over the years to -Richard, Oliver, Gen, Danny, Kevin, Stuart, Wendy, Karen, Rachel and Izzi!PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

GoogleIf I bring Cash money (350K) so I expect at least feedback. Instead of reaching out to me via email, simply cancelled my viewing stressing that tried to call me. The Property was sold when I received a question about possibility to move my viewing to a different day. I arrived to Penrith Road, 29 RG21 8XN and was told that they sold it. Maybe they are great sellers but customer approach is very poor. I bet, I could easily buy another house from them but they limited such possibility.

Thank you for taking the time to review our service. Firstly I must empathise with buyers in the current market, there just isn't enough houses to accommodate the demand of buyers.
I must also apologise for any inconvenience caused, but we did contact you via email and telephone to notify you that this property was SSTC. We may well work for the seller but we have a duty of care to everyone. As a gesture of good will, we will provide you with £25 amazon gift voucher to make up for your wasted journey, please contact me directly obrooks@thepropertyexplorer.co.uk
All the very best with your property search, and rest assure that we will do everything possible to help support you securing a suitable property.

GoogleProperty explorer were amazing! Going through any house sell is going to be a stressful time but Oliver, Stuart and the gang were great to have on board. As soon as we met Oliver we knew it was the right fit. Not only did we use the estate agent services we also used the financial services from Stuart. After 6 months going through a lengthy house buy and sell, we got to know each other. He was a joy to speak to. He understood all our frustrations that we were having with our solicitor and was able to sort it on our behalf. We will be going back to Stuart for when our fixed rate mortgage is up. Thank you property explorer, you made it easy

GoogleI was very impressed with the Property Explorer team from start to finish. They managed to get us 14 viewings within a few days and 4 offers, including one at asking price. The ladies doing the viewings were charming and very professional and Oliver himself was charming and full of confidence we could get our price, and we did. We then started working with Kevin who managed the offers and his patience was limitless, handling my queries, liaising with our buyers and confidently marching the whole thing through. I would thoroughly recommend choosing Property Explorer.

GoogleIt stupid that in this day and age you cant view a house without waiting for a sodding open day. Chains get completed every day and you can't view a house to move forward. There should be daily appointments available for every house that's advertised. The system needs rethinking. Business is being lost. Avoid moving unless you have 3 years to do so because you won't get an appointment for 6 months. Rubbish.

GoogleWhat an impressive service from start to finish and could not recommend the team enough.
Ollie helped us on our journey to selling our home with confidence in his guidance and sold our home incredibly quickly.
Danny helped us in securing our dream home, nothing was ever too much trouble and always so efficient with communication.
Stuart the mortgage advisor went above and beyond to help us with not just the mortgage but suggestions and reassurance.
And Kevin took us over the much desired line of exchange, helping in every way possible and attentive to everything happening in our chain.
Even keeping us in good spirits in times of uncertainty,

I would recommend Laura at Property Explorer. I dealt with a few estate agents, 2 being high street ones and they were useless, I had to chase them and they promised the earth with incorrect valuations! Working with laura has been a pleasure and I saved serveral thousands of pounds. Laura kept me informed me right though the process and gave me the correct valuation for my property. Thank you Laura.

GoogleProperty Explorer have been excellent, taking professional photos of the house, marketing, responding immediately to any calls/e mails. They are proactive rather than reactive, eg when our buyer dropped out they immediately adjusted sale price to generate more interest. Danny Low, Kevin Cheeseman, Rachel Garraway have all been courteous, professional and we felt like we were part of a large family taking care of every step. I highly recommend Property Explorer
