Me and my husband has purchased a house recently with Williams & Donovan and we are very happy with the service we received both during property search and then throughout the purchase process. We were on very tight timescale but the team helped us to make the process efficient and quick.

Williams & Donovan (Benfleet) provided a 5 star service, they are the most efficient estate agents I have come across. Lloyd and Mark in particular, ensured an excellent move was made possible (Darren, James and Lynn very helpful). Their attention to detail and thoroughness throughout was impeccable. They kept in touch and went above and beyond to make my sale and purchase as effortless as possible. I would highly recommend.

It was a pleasure buying a home through Williams & Donovan. I was mainly dealing with Lynn and Jo, who was fantastic when corresponding with no delay. They was very efficient and made the sale go smooth and hassle free. Also they was very friendly, lovely ladies. Thank you William & Donovan for such a great service.

The team at Williams and Donovan are fantastic. We've bought through them and now sold through them too, their communication, professionalism and dedication is excellent and I thoroughly recommend them to anyone. They also pull out all the stops to get things sorted when you meet any roadblocks or challenges with the sale process, they know their stuff and you can trust them to get things done.

The team at Williams & Donovan have been great from start to finish. This is the second time we’ve used them on a property sale and can’t speak highly enough of them. From the approach to pricing our property through to getting us viewings and managing the process they’ve been first class. Highly recommend considering them if you are looking to sell or buy.

I have recently sold my property through Williams & Donovan, Benfleet and have been really impressed with their professionalism throughout the process. From listing the property, through tying up the sale and handling the inevitable issues that arise from a chain of sales, their communication and attention to detail has been of the highest level. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone looking to buy or sell a property.

Excellent service from start to finish. Staff were very helpful and always kept us informed. Lynn was especially helpful. Our transaction was long and had some complications, we found that Lynn went out of her way to keep things moving and always kept everyone in the loop. I would use them again.

I recently bought a house in Benfleet, coming from out of the area by some way. W&D were great throughout the entire process, from initially arranging appointments and answering questions about the property and the area, to managing the buying process without a hitch. I would highly recommend their services and the people themselves. Thank you W&D!PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

Professional service at a reasonable cost. Honest advice on marketing and price. Accompanied prospective buyers on all the viewings and helped in the final negotiation. Exchange and completion went smoothly, including reading the meters on completion day. All the staff were pleasant and easy to deal with.

Hi David, I'm sorry that you felt that the lady you spoke to wasn't interested. We are experiencing an unusually high demand for rental properties and the property you enquired about had already been let. We do care, and if we get anything else please do get in touch and we will do our best to help you find a property.

I have been dealing with Paul for a purchase through W&D and he has been an absolute pleasure to deal with, keeping me informed along every step of the way and working tirelessly - chasing the chain/solicitors in both directions!. Absolute professionalism from start to finish. Will not hesitate to recommend and will certainly be using them to sell my property (when the time comes!)

I was booked in for a secondary viewing today at 17:30, however was told at 16:30 that the viewing was cancelled as the property was sold for under the asking price. Feel bad for the seller as we were looking to submit an offer for the full asking price!
