GoogleI had a genuinely great experience working with Helen Mehmet. As everyone knows, selling and buying a house can be a very stressful process, but Helen made it so much easier. She was incredibly helpful and always there for us.
Helen is friendly, knowledgeable, and really listens to what you need. She was always willing to go the extra mile to support us throughout the journey.
I’d happily recommend her to anyone looking for a supportive and reliable agent when buying or selling with Intercounty.
Also, I have to mention sales processor team Doug. This is the second time I have worked with Doug. He always helped us to make sure everything going through smoothly. Great working with Doug. He will be the men if you would like your completion hassle free!

GoogleA huge thank you to Doug Whybrow and Helen Mehmet at Intercounty for helping us purchase our first home.
Doug was brilliant throughout the whole process. As first-time buyers, there was a lot we didn't know, but he always took the time to explain everything clearly and keep us updated. He was easily the best communicator involved in the purchase and was always happy to answer questions or chase things up when needed. His support really helped keep everything moving and made the process much less stressful.
I would also like to thank Helen for all her help at the start of our journey. She was friendly, welcoming and very helpful from day one.
We had a really positive experience with the team at Intercounty and would happily recommend them to anyone looking to buy a home. Thanks again for all your help in getting us into our first home! 😊

GoogleHighly reccomend Charlie Cummins from Intercounty. He really made the difference to our property journey with his professional and very human touch . We used Intercounty via Move plus when selling our home as a part exchange . Can’t fault his communication , crisis ( haha) or solution finding management . Easing the stress in what can be a very stressful process. It’s hard to find good people . The ones that go above and beyond . The ones that make the difference - and so Charlie is defo one to have on your radar should you use Intercounty Bishops Stortford .

GoogleAmazing experience! I’m so happy with my new apartment. After viewing 11 apartments with other agencies, Intercounty found the perfect solution for me.
Natasha and Shali were absolutely fantastic, friendly, professional, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. As someone new to the UK, I really appreciated how clearly they explained everything and guided me through all the important details. Their dedication, patience, and support made the whole experience smooth and stress-free.

GoogleDoug Whybrow, the Sales Progressor at Intercounty was an absolute mensch, he really helped get our sale over the finish line. There were a lot of delays and issues caused by the solicitor, but Doug kept on top of everything and kept the lines of communication going between all the different parts of the chain. His sense of humour also really helped during the stressful moments! Thank you Doug!

GoogleThe process of selling my mum's house with Intercounty was seamless and professional. They sold the house in three days by making great professional pictures and drumming up interest before it even hit the market. The price was realistic as well and so were the expectations. Sam Kelly and his sales team were easy to reach and worked flat out. As for the process, I must mention Doug Whybrow who was brilliant. He was basically reachable all the time by phone everytime we had a tiny question. As we used the Intercounty solicitor he helped liaise with that team too. Doug was calm and reassuring and helped explain in laymen's terms how the details worked when they came up. I can't thank him enough for reassuring my elderly mum. I just couldn't ask for a better process. We completed in just three months which feels unreal. Thank you Intercounty team!

Whole process from listing to completion was faultless. Intercounty Bishops Stortford staff especially Kristy and the sales team were respectful when showing prospective purchasers around.

TrustpilotPossibly the worst estate agent in the…
Possibly the worst estate agent in the UK? Very disappointing experience. I viewed a property over two months ago and never heard anything back.
Property is still available at the time of writing. Numerous phone calls weren’t returned, emails were ignored, and there was zero follow-up. Instead of simply letting me know the property was no longer available or I don’t qualify or anything to at least keep me up to date.
I was left waiting with no communication at all. Unfortunately, it ended up being a complete waste of my time. And my family are still without accommodation.
I’m specifically calling out the agent HM
For the pitiful service/ lack of it towards me.

GoogleMatt Stapleton, Care & Maintenance Manager, went above and beyond to get things going, to the point he took it “personal” and managed to fix a time critical repair very important for us.
To be honest, it has been like that most of the time when we needed any kind of repairs in the house. With his superb work and dedication, he sorted out many problems, which in any other case, we would still be waiting. He always run the extra mile to get things done.
Thank you Matt
Amazing job

TrustpilotDeposit withheld for a month with unfair charges and no evidence provided
We had a truly horrible experience with Intercounty’s Home Move team (Nicole and Sheetal) when it came to the return of our deposit.
Despite arranging and paying for a professional 5-hour deep clean before moving out, the landlord (via Intercounty) initially tried to deduct £200 for cleaning, £100 for a tiny 1 × 4 cm carpet mark, and £50 for light wall scuffs. The wall scuffs were clearly fair wear and tear as stated in our tenancy agreement, yet they were still listed as a charge until we pushed back. The carpet mark was barely noticeable, but we were told £100, an arbitrary and excessive figure, would be taken.
We spent weeks going back and forth, repeatedly asking for an invoice to justify the cleaning charge. Nothing was ever provided, and the deposit was withheld for a full month after we moved out. The way this was handled felt unprofessional, slow, and at times as though invoices were being sought after the fact to justify deductions.
Eventually, after constant chasing, the deductions were reduced to just £50 for the carpet. But it should not have taken weeks of stress, emails, and withheld money to reach such a simple and reasonable conclusion.
At a time when moving already brings huge financial strain, Intercounty’s Home Move team made the process unnecessarily difficult. Tenants should not have to fight so hard to recover their own money. Our experience with Nicole and Sheetal was deeply frustrating, and I would strongly caution others to think carefully before renting through Intercounty.

Thank you for your feedback and for raising your concerns about your deposit return. We are sorry that you were left feeling disappointed with the process. We have looked into this carefully and can confirm that after your move-out on 5th August, the checkout report was issued promptly and we worked closely with both you and the landlord to resolve matters. A resolution was reached and your deposit was returned on 28th August, which is well within the regulatory timescales, although we understand that the experience still felt stressful for you. Tenancy deposits are tightly regulated, and where deductions are proposed they must be substantiated and fairly managed. We always aim to act transparently and to return funds as swiftly as possible. We regret that your experience did not feel smooth, and we truly value your feedback as it helps us to improve the service we provide to future tenants. Best wishes, Adam & The Intercounty Team

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback, Michael.
We are sorry to hear that you were unhappy with your experience.
Throughout your tenancy and following your departure from the property, we have spoken with you on a number of occasions regarding the concerns you raised and have always sought to engage with you directly to understand and address those concerns.
In relation to the noise and odours you mention, the property is situated directly above a commercial premises, which was clearly visible when the property was viewed. The viewing itself was conducted directly with the landlord and, as a result, we were not party to any discussions that took place regarding the property, the surrounding area or the neighbouring businesses. We are therefore unable to comment on what was or was not discussed during that appointment.
We are also disappointed to read your comments regarding our team. Providing a professional and supportive service is something we take very seriously. Whilst we appreciate that end of tenancy matters can sometimes be frustrating, we have remained available throughout to discuss the issues raised and to help progress matters wherever possible.
We always welcome constructive feedback and remain happy to discuss any outstanding concerns with you directly.
