My husband and I couldn't recommend Hollands Smith more highly. Simon and the team were absolutely exceptional. Incredibly friendly, helpful and open with communication, always proactive and a pleasure to deal with. They couldn't have done …

I want to recommend Rob Smith at HollandSmith as he assisted me to sell my house which was part of a fairly long chain. He offered reassuring advice, always answered my calls and acted swiftly on my behalf whenever I requested a follow up on something. The same can't be said for all involved and I began this process with a slightly cynical view of estate agents which I'm glad to say Rob turned on it's head! I would definitely look at buying/selling through HollandSmith if I were staying in the area and would like to thank them for their assistance throughout the process.

I have just completed the purchase of a property which was being sold by Hollands Smith. From the initial contact to arrange a viewing through to the final collection of keys the experience of dealing with Hollands Smith has been fantastic. Rob Smith in particular has been friendly, approachable and responsive providing support and insight during the complete sales process. He was also more than happy to engage in other areas to provide assistance and clarity on the status of the sale and this created an environment which was reassuring and great team work. I would certainly recommend the HS team to perspective sellers and buyers. Thanks for making my purchase stress free.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

I cannot speak highly enough about the experience I had with Holland & Smith. From viewing through to completion, Rob was extremely professional, knowledgeable and responsive to ensure a quick and successful purchase.

Without a doubt the best estate agents around Bedford. As tennants, Jane & the team always go above and beyond to accommodate our needs. They're so polite & friendly and take the time to listen and help you where they can. The times we have needed help with maintenance at the property, Jane has always ensured it's dealt with immediately and resolved as quickly as possible. Their catalogue of properties around the area are stunning and the houses we have seen (before we chose our current one) have always been in beautiful condition in great locations. If you're looking for a reliable, trustworthy team of experienced estate agents, I definitely recommend speaking with Hollands Smith. We have dealt with other estate agents in Bedford who have been appalling and couldn't believe our luck when we met these guys. 😎

Hi i am just about to complete on my buy to let property with Hollands Smith. I cannot recommend this company highly enough. From the first viewing they have been more than helpful and accommodating and offer a service of old school estate agency with professionalism, integrity and honesty throughout. Nothing was too much trouble and my endless questions were always answered. This is a fantastic estate agency and I highly recommend their services from a purchase or a sale perspective we dealt mainly with Rob who was a gentleman and a pleasure to deaI with, thank you so very much for your help and the way you dealt with this. Kind regards Dorota Kowalska

We have just recently completed a purchase that was being dealt with through Hollands Smith in the upward chain. Even though we had not specifically marketed the property with Hollands Smith - the team were extremely helpful, provide timely and useful updates on the upward chain and answered all of our (many!) questions to the best of their abilities. Based on this experience, we would definitely consider marketing our properties in the future with Hollands Smith and would strongly recommend to others also!

Typically deceitful estate agent who bullsh!tted with us and never put our offer forward despite outbidding the apparent final offer. Clearly they only want to sell to developers at lower rate. Will never recommend them to anyone.

Huw Β· 21 May 2024

Agent replied Β· 26 November 2023

Hello Huw Your allegations are false and unwarranted. Whilst I don’t believe this is the place to get into any long debate, I’d like to refer you to the letter sent to you on 26th April, which clearly states that your offer was delivered to our client and rejected on the basis that you were not in a position to proceed. Before we had time to start marketing your property, other serious interest was generated and another offer accepted from someone who was in a position to proceed - a typical scenario with the market at the time. Occasionally, completed sale prices are lower than those agreed at the outset as renegotiation can take place during the contractual process. There was no misrepresentation on our part and our client was in possession of all the details of all relevant interest in order to arrive at his decisions. And, before you make any further assumptions, the purchaser was not a developer.

It took us a year to find our new home, but during this period Rob, Simon and Rachel were very professional, friendly and patient, and kept coming up with new properties for us to view until we found "the one". Their knowledge of the area was invaluable.These guys are in danger of giving estate agents a good name!

I needed lots of support to make my move, and Rob Smith provided it in spades. I'm so grateful to Rob and all the team at Hollands Smith for making a difficult time so easy. Experience makes all the difference, as I found on so many occasions. Strongest possible recommendation.

Fantastic agents. Have been there to help us at every stage of the process of buying our first home. So supportive and informative, always respond to messages and calls very quickly.

Best agents in Bedford by far. Honest and trustworthy. Having bought and sold through them they now manage my lettings. They offer an exceptional service and whether you are considering buying, selling, letting or renting through them you will be guaranteed to be looked after and treated with care and respect. Its not surprising that people like myself continue to use them 17 years on from our first sale and purchase!

Can I just say what a wonderful experience we have had using this agent. I have always been particularly sceptical about estate agents but this was slick transaction, dealt with very professionally from beginning to end. The company went out of their way to be helpful, were courteous and informative throughout the process. I would not hesitate to use this company again for selling or purchasing. Highly recommended! Many thanks, Hollands Smith.

Bought our house with Hollands Smith some months ago after a previous chain broke down. They were very professsional, accomodating and down - to - earth throughout the whole process and felt like they were working equally for the buyer and seller. By far the best estate agent we dealt with whilst house searching and, should we ever choose to sell, would ask Hollands Smith to market.

Have had serious problems in a rented flat from this estate agent. The flat was extremely dusty throughout and the bedroom had serious mould issues which has resulted in my furniture being ruined. Mainly the mattress in attached picture. …

We are sorry to read your review. We feel unable to respond in detail as the way in which the property was left by you is now in the hands of the dispute resolution service to resolve. We have acted for this landlord for a number of years and have received no other complaints to date.
