A massive thank you to all the team at Stags, Bideford for getting our sale and purchase over the line. It was excellently handled and big thanks to Zara whose client skills are superb and Adrian Tinker for continuing optimism and support. This is the 4th move sale/purchases using Stags - and although we don’t plan another for a very long time - wouldn’t hesitate to recommend

I highly recommend Stags, the Bideford team were exceptional going that extra mile to ensure everything ran as smoothly as possible from start to finish. We were kept fully informed of progress at every stage. The service provided was highly professional and efficient, Although a team effort without a doubt I would like to thank Zara in particular who was our main point of contact and worked tirelessly to achieve a successful outcome for both parties involved in the sale.

The team at Stags Bideford were amazing start to finish! Stags Bideford helped us through a sale even while we were living in New Zealand. No matter the question or concern we would raise they would have an answer or deal with it immediately, working with the 13 hour time difference was never an issue. Communication was outstanding! A notable stand out team member is Zara she made this feeling of ease for us throughout the sale and couldn’t do enough for us! Awesome team will definitely be recommending to others!

We would highly recommend Stags in both the selling and buying of our homes. Having recently sold a property with Stags, we then subsequently went on to purchase via Stags. We were very impressed at the level of expertise and care of the entire team. We dealt with Sam, Zara and Olivia, and with James for viewings, and all of whom were extremely knowledgable, courteous and professional. Calls and emails were always responded to promptly and we were kept fully informed throughout the process. We’d have no hesitation in recommending Stags Bideford and would like to thank them for their hard work. They made the selling and buying of our homes a pleasant and easy experience.

Have recently sold and purchased through stags in Bideford I wanted to share how amazing team have been from start to finish on both the sale and the purchase. From a sale perspective the whole team were great, from discussions on marketing, feedback from viewings and online performance through to the negotiations on offers and support through enquiries through to completion (often going above and beyond to keep communication lines open across the chain and everything on track) From a purchase perspective we had the same great service and acted in our interests as buyers at all times. We were cautious on using the same agent for our sale as the one used by the vendors of our purchase due to potential conflicts of interest etc but that was unfounded. Transparent and pragmatic across the whole process and a breath of fresh air to find an estate agency that breaks from the stereotypes. Although we are hopefully now in our forever home I wouldn’t question using the team again if things change.

We cannot recommend Stags in Bideford enough. Our house purchase has been a very long process with many, many complications along the way to say the least. Zara has worked tirelessly to make sure everyone in the chain stayed updated and in touch. She has found solutions to issues that threatened the sale and offered options that were fair and suitable for all parties involved. We have no doubt, that without Zara’s unwavering support, genuine care, in-depth knowledge and ways of thinking outside the box, our chain would have fallen apart months ago. Zara literally could not do enough to help and support us, always at the end of the phone or email! We will be forever thankful to Zara for fighting so hard to get us our perfect forever home. -Emma & Carl

We bought our cottage through Stags and the main points of contact were through Olivia & Zara. The process started in end January and communication with Stags was good, they provided whatever information that was required in a timely manner. Trying to reach either of them was never a problem, if they were busy a colleague helped me out. When there were challenges with the chain, Stags were pro-active and helpful. We completed and moved 30 June, pretty much the expected timing from the start. I would recommend Stags as I found them to be professional Estate Agents that helped with the transaction.

Fantastic service 5* - it took 3 years to find and nearly 100 viewings but we got there with the help of Stags in Bideford. Archie was superb, attentive, helpful and approachable. The other staff always knew what was going on and even James the surveyor was super helpful. A really pleasant estate agent experience.

We had a faultless experience when buying our latest property with Stags in Bideford. Sam and Archie were both very attentive and provided us with regular updates when required. Zara was also very pleasant when we picked up the keys on our moving day. All in all we really enjoyed dealing with Stags and would happily rely on the team when buying or selling in future.

Enquired about a property I was interested in, a gentleman from the office ensured me that he would phone me back to clarify some questions and nobody has bothered (twice). Can't give you anything other than 1* unfortunately. Edit: Thank you for your reply and stating that because you are really busy (hopefully that statement helps boost your business as I can't see any other reason for writing it) nobody has replied to the enquiries. I can't understand (even though you are extremely busy) why straightforward enquiries would take over a week to reply to. In any case when (or if) anyone gets back to me I will delete this review and change it to 5*.

Appalling agency. Right from the start when they refused to put an offer through to the seller (which I believe is illegal), we had to trace the seller directly & discuss our own price & then tell Staggs what we had agreed on! They didn't chase up or pursue the sale at virtually any point, we had to either chase the sellers or their solicitors ourselves or chase Staggs to chase them. The final straw was picking up the keys, we called them & said we would like to pick the keys up - yes no problem & agreed the time, etc. We got there & then they ask for ID - it might have been useful to tell us we needed that - oh, we'll just photocopy your bank card - what! We insisted our bank details were blacked out. I've dealt with a lot of agents in the past, some very good, some bad - but this office is the worst we've had the mis-fortune to ever deal with.
