GoogleBecky has been an absolute pleasure to work with throughout the process. She kept everything moving and made what was a stressful conveyancing process much more manageable with her professionalism and clear communication.
She was always quick to respond, knowledgeable, and proactive in liaising with all parties to keep things on track. Becky is a credit to the business, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Russell Property to anyone looking for a reliable and supportive estate agent, Becky in particular deserves recognition for the fantastic job she does.

GoogleRussell properties have been absolutely faultless when buying our home in Bishops Stortford. Ellie in particular helped us negotiate and manage our expectations and we are so grateful as we bought our dream home which was originally out of budget. Can’t fault Ellie with communication and helping us to get the house by communicating so well with the sellers and us. Shoutout to Becky too who took over and was equally as helpful! Will definitely use Russell if we ever sell in the future and will recommend to others!

GoogleWe recently completed on our first home, buying through Russell Property. From start to finish our experience was 1st class and the entire team were highly professional and efficient. We dealt with Ellie in the first instance who went out of her way to speak with us to understand our requirements and our budget.
From there, Ellie kept us posted on a number of properties that were coming up for sale. Although, one house particularly stood out which was off-market, in which we were the first to view and ticked all of our boxes. To make it even better the house was on our dream road, something which we had mentioned to Ellie in our first couple of chats.
During the conveyancing and sales progression we dealt with Becky and Paula, both of whom were very attentive and lovely to speak with, always keeping us regularly informed on the progress of our purchase.
We could also not forget Doug, who covered Becky whilst she was away on holiday, and done a great job at pushing the final stages of our purchase along and helping to get us to point of exchange.
This really highlighted the team’s strength at Russell Property given there was no lack of communication during leave or wasted time.
We could not be happier with our new home, and we are so glad that we chose Russell Property to help us with this massive milestone in our lives. Thank you so much to all of the team.

GoogleWe had a very tricky chain and Becky was so helpful and on it, chasing everyday and keeping us updated. If it wasn’t for her I don’t think it would have gone through! She made what was a stressful situation a lot more calm knowing she had it under control. We are so thankful to her! x

GoogleI had an amazing experience with Russel Property while purchasing my first home! From start to finish, their team was incredibly helpful and professional. Louis was a wealth of knowledge during every viewing! Ellie was fantastic at getting my appointments, despite my last minute requests! And Becky was an absolute star, always available, providing invaluable support, and patiently answering all my questions throughout the process.
Their dedication made my home-buying journey smooth and enjoyable, and I couldn’t have asked for better service. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and supportive estate agency!

GoogleI would just like to say a massive thank you to Alicia Foster. She was very prompt and provided extensive knowledge about our area.
Alicia was very warm and friendly and guided us on how to improve our home, so we could get the best return, if we were to sell.
I found her to be very honest and provided full clarity and for that we are thankful.
We have found some estate agents over the years to a little disingenuous, so meeting Alicia was very refreshing.
We will definitely be using Alicia in the future and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to sell their home.

GoogleA big thank you to Alicia Foster and Russell property with their help in our search in finding our new home.
Alicia was very professional, proactive and most helpful during our search. Not being from the area she provided that local knowledge we were lacking which was a great help.
We have no problem in recommending Russell Property.

GoogleRussell Properties managed the renovation of my home last year, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. They took care of every detail - coordinating builders and contractors, keeping me updated throughout, and ensuring everything was completed to a high standard. Their professionalism, reliability, and approachable manner made what could have been a stressful process completely seamless.
Once the renovation was complete, they found excellent tenants and have now managed the rental side for the past year with the same high level of care and efficiency. Communication has always been clear and timely, and they’ve been proactive in dealing with any issues that arise.
I’ve been genuinely impressed with their commitment, understanding, and personal touch, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Russell Properties to anyone looking for a trustworthy and professional property management team.

GoogleWe have rented our house from Russell Property for 4 years and they are very professional. I want to however give a special mention to Rachel, she is always such a friendly and professional person and has just made our Christmas by going that extra mile and really caring about the problems we had with our boiler. She has made sure we are warm for Xmas and really did care about us as a young family. Thank you Rachel.

GoogleThere is a bunch of good businesses in this country. Russell Property is one of them. This has some of the most amazing people we have been LUCKY ;) to meet. Miranda you started off with just pure positive energy to show me around and sold me within the first 5 mins. when you passed us on the rest of the team, Hannah/ Pippa/ Nicola, you guys were just fabulous in your service such that My wife and I had to send you flowers after you worked to get us our new home! Words cannot describe how grateful we are to God for enabling our paths to meet. Thank you for all you have done for us and we know this is not the end as now we have Rachel & Tommy just on the other end of the Phone. If we could give you more than 5 stars we would.
Thanks and keep up the great work, I am sure there are other individuals out there whose life you have changed because of how you do business.

GoogleWe moved into a property rented from RP In June 21. The house was dirty and the inventory stated that it had not been professionally cleaned. A few days after moving in, my partner and I contracted Covid. He was admitted to hospital a week after we moved in. I advised RP of what had happened and asked them to stop sending him email reminders to sign the inventory as he was in a coma. They kept sending the reminders. They even came round to do a house check during this time. My partner died of Covid 4 weeks later. The ITU nurse advised that it was likely that we had contracted Covid from the dirty property and I should advise the agents of this. After the devastating loss of my partner, I did not have the strength to do this. I moved out of the house in Oct 22 and left it cleaner than when we moved in. Nicola Helm from RP advised that they would be deducting from the deposit as the house had not been professionally cleaned. She only backtracked on this when I sent her the original inventory. She then deducted for a mark that was there when we moved in but I did not have a date stamped photo to prove this as requested by her. The deposit was in my late partners name so his daughter had to go to the ombudsman to dispute this charge. The ombudsman awarded us 3/4 of the amount disputed as agreed that RP charge was over inflated even though
I did not have a date stamped photo.
I would have taken all my issues with RP further but did not want to put my partners daughters through any more distress.
The stress and upset that this company caused, particularly Nicola Helm has been appalling.

GoogleGreat professional service from start to finish. Excellent advice from Josh on how to market the house and at what price based on local knowledge. Always kept up to date on viewings, which were also always facilitated by Josh or Doug without us needing to be there. Helpful insight from Josh on negotiating with buyers on offers received. And fantastic support from Vanessa and Doug post offer acceptance to get us all the way through to exchange - a somewhat painful process for a variety of (non-Russell’s) reasons but their proactive chasing of all buyers, seller, and solicitors in the chain every step of the way gave us confidence that we would get there.
Thank you Josh, Vanessa and Doug. Your support has been much appreciated.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

GoogleGod answered a major prayer request for our family through Russel Property in Bishop's Stortford. We were very new to the UK and needed to find a place to rent as soon as possible. I walked into their office without an appointment and was introduced to Jack who listened intently about what I was hoping to find. He had something available that was not even listed yet. I was able to walk there immediately after speaking with him to meet Pippa who just happened to be at the property. I felt home there immediately. Jack had been honest that the property needed some work, but that Russel's would work with me to help get it move-in ready. Jack, Pippa, Leah, Hannah and Jo all patiently answered all my questions. Eventually Jo became my go-to person for arranging all the services that had to come into the house to install a boiler, fix odds and ends, change an appliance, etc. and as of today, my family lives in a modernized and beautiful home. We are so happy with Russel's and are especially glad for the rapport built up with Jo through our many emails and calls and even seeing each other round the town. These are honest and kind people to work with and we wholeheartedly recommend them!
