TrustpilotOutstanding! Would Highly Recommend
My experience with The Property Explorer has been absolutely first rate!! The service I have received from the team, particularly Kevin Cheeseman has been Outstanding! Nothing was too much trouble. I was kept informed at all times of any developments and any correspondence was responded to politely and efficiently. Always going the extra mile and keeping me updated. I cannot fault the team and Iwould highly recommend them to sell your property. It has been an absolute pleasure working with them. I cannot find a single thing negative thing to say about the entire process of them selling my home.

GoogleWell, what can I say! Absolutely fantastic and treated me like a family member. Danny went as far as helping me re-house my cats.. honestly, what other estate agent would do that? Oliver came to see me after a terrible experience with another agent; reassured me he would look after me, told me that we would sell the house, and that is exactly what happened... and super quick when the other agent had no offers in a month.. really can't recommend them enough. The ladies in the office were delightful. My whole experience so far has been super! Thank you very much, Jacks :)

TrustpilotSupportive and always on hand to help
I rented a house with Property Explorer for 2 years. During that time Wendy and the team were always on hand to help - even when we got locked out at 6pm on a Friday! I remember from the check-in of the property the team were very thorough providing all meter reading and recording anything slight damaged or not 100%. They ensured all document and certificate we up to date inline with the regulation.

TrustpilotVery disappointing experience
Very disappointing experience. I agreed a sale over three months ago, yet there’s been no meaningful update from the estate agent about the buyer’s mortgage progress. I’ve just learned from my solicitor that the buyer hasn’t even submitted a mortgage offer to their lawyer, a completely unacceptable delay.
What makes this worse is that the buyer is using the agency’s own in-house mortgage advisor. Despite that, they’ve failed to provide any clear timeline or update. I raised my concerns formally and sent a written notice outlining next steps, yet the estate agent didn’t even acknowledge receipt or follow up.
The dismissive attitude, lack of transparency, and complete failure to communicate have put my own purchase at serious risk. I expected a much higher standard of professionalism.

GoogleSimin Pearson is a man with a big heart -director.of The property Explorer Basingstoke.... A few years ago,wife and I decided to leave the UK .We decided to sell property. The situation was difficult because the our solicitor were not involved enough to complete the transaction as soon as possible. The wife was pregnant and if not for Simon's help we would not have been able to return by plane whole family together. He approaches everyone very professionally, empathizing with the needs.. Whoever had contact with him knows that this man will do anything to satisfy his client, whom he treats as a friend. He helped me selflessly complete the sale transactions .Simon sped up the whole process thanks to which we were able to sell the property and be allowed go on the plane in the last 1 month before the termination.We will never forget what he did for us.Thank you very much Simon.

GoogleCannot recommend enough. Wendy from this branch has been unbelievably dedicated to our circumstances and we are forever grateful. After the purchase of our property fell through just before exchange we found ourselves wanting to rent short term as a young family with a dog and a baby due (in 4 weeks!!) and Wendy went above and beyond to organise our tenancy as soon as possible for us with our current circumstances. We really appreciated the help, thank you Wendy!!

GoogleWe have used The Property Explorer 3 times in the last 10 years, the reason being we had a great experience with them the first time and would be very hesitant to move if the Estate Agent wasn’t right to work with.
There’s no ‘typical estate agent’ working here, no sales patter, from enquiry to completion the team are approachable, family friendly, calm and communicative and ensure you are fully involved and understand at all stages of the process from enquiry to completion.
Oliver and Kevin have been involved in all 3 of our moves and on this occasion Danny too. All were fantastic yet again, and whilst we really won’t be moving again, I can’t recommend this team highly enough!

TrustpilotEnd of tenancy review for TPE
This is my end of tenancy review for The Property Explorer (TPE). I rented through TPE for 2 years. Every time I had to call them, they were always very helpful, prompt and genuine. They made moving in and moving out easy. They were very prompt helping us to replace a broken boiler, and worked extra hours over weekends to help us out with a couple of maintenance issues we had.A particular shout out to Wendy, who was always a delight to chat to on the phone and was my main point of contact the past 2 years.

GoogleKevin from Property Explorer has been assisting us with the sale. He has a good understanding of the market and help us achieve a realistic asking price. He has kept us in the loop constantly and also assisted getting the property ready for sale by using his knowledge and network of builders and handymen. Thank you Kevin.

GoogleAs many others have said avoid this company at all costs.
Wish we’d done a quick bit of research first on Property Explorers as we could have seen the kind of people we were going to be dealing with. When others have been physically assaulted and physically threatened by the owner it’s a pretty big red flag! Whilst we haven’t been physically assaulted or physically threatened (yet) our experience wasn’t much better.
We hired them to “manage” our rental properties. I use the word manage very loosely as would be lucky to get a response, forget about getting any assistance.
When we decided we’d had enough of their “services” we were initially met with threats if we left. When this didn’t work we were then offered discounts before more threats started.
Trying to speak with anyone at the company with any authority is near impossible. They simply brush you off to their secretary that will simply fob you off with lies and nonsense. I’m sure they’ll defensively respond to this review with similar nonsense and lies.
Tenant's were also relieved to see the back of them as had experienced similar frustrations.
Majorly regret not getting rid of these guys sooner. There are many better and cost effective management company’s around and we were quickly able to find a much better solution with a little online research.
Do yourself a favour and save yourself a lot of time, money and headaches and look elsewhere. Struggling to find anything positive at all about our experience with them.

Paul,
This complaint is grossly inaccurate and bordering on libellous.
To add some accurate context to your complaint; We have been your letting agent since 2008! 15 years is a long time for you to endure such a bad service. During this time, we were exclusively reporting to your mum, as instructed, due to you being overseas. Here is a snippet of her recent email to us in October this year “I would like to say a big thank you to you and the staff for all the help you have given me in the past and wish you all well for the future”
You gave us 3 properties to deal with on a rent collect only basis, so we had little to do with the tenants unless they paid the rent late, which we dealt with successfully every time. Giving us more and more properties to us to handle is not the actions of a landlord that is so disappointed with our service.
It’s very disappointing to me that 15 years of excellent service at reduced rates has suddenly become so bad weeks after you wanted to renegue on a legal agreement between us due to you not being able to afford our service anymore. What’s even more disappointing is that you complain about not being able to talk to a senior person when your entire 15 year experience has been dealt with by a senior lettings manager, and more recently me, the owner of the company. We have spent hours, weekends and evenings trying to help you financially which has been rewarded with you not paying us and delivery of this inaccurate review.

I would like to highly recommend The Property Explorer. The whole process was very smooth and quick from initial first meeting with Oliver until we successfully exchanged the contracts.I was very pleased with the photos and virtual tour, the quality is exceptional.The house was sold after only one day of viewings. From the day we accepted the offer on our house Kevin was our key person who was helping with everything very quickly and efficiently. He always responded to phone calls and emails. Once again thank you for everything!

GoogleFantastic from start to finish! Bought, sold and secured my re-mortgage with the teams help and it was a first class experience at all times. Gen and Oliver were instrumental in helping me secure an above asking price buyer for my house, as well as sealing a deal on my new property which I love! Stuart made the porting of my mortgage across stress free and even during a last minute glitch, took the time after hours to smooth things over. Kevin was just brilliant at progressing both sale and purchase and brought the completion date in before the 30th June stamp duty holiday deadline! Win win I'd say! Thank you to you all. Highly recommend!
