We recently sold our holiday home with Jackson Stops Cornwall. We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better estate agent than Dan. Selling our property was quite a journey and he was brilliant throughout.
He went above and beyond for us, was persistent when he needed to be and kept everything moving and on track. He was always approachable, patient, reassuring and honest. No matter what cropped up, he was always at the end of the phone and made the whole process feel so much easier.
By the end of it, Dan genuinely felt more like a friend than our estate agent! He really does care and we’re so grateful for all the help and support he gave us throughout.
Couldn’t recommend Dan and Jackson Stops enough. Thank you for everything Dan 😊

TrustpilotBest estate agents experience ever!
Jackson-Stops have recently sold our house for us and we downsized to a bungalow, also through them. They were so helpful every step of the way. We dealt with Rebecca, Chris and in the later stages Pip who helped us by chasing solicitors and ensuring the process worked as it should, after our solicitors closed their local office and enabling us to sign and have our contracts witnessed in their Reigate office. A fantastic team of people, highly recommended!

Thank you, Sandra, for taking the time to leave this review. We're delighted to hear that both the sale of your house and the purchase of your bungalow went so smoothly, particularly given the added complication of your solicitors closing their local office. It's great to know that Rebecca, Chris and Pip were able to step in and keep everything moving, including arranging for your contracts to be signed and witnessed at our Reigate office. Thank you for recommending us and we wish you every happiness in your new home.

TrustpilotWe sold our house through the Bury St Edmunds office of Jackson-Stops
We sold our house through the Jackson-Stops, Bury St Edmunds office. We knew the staff there from the original purchase of the property and were so pleased with that experience that we chose them for the recent sale. The team in Bury St Edmunds were effective from day one. The marketing material was well thought out and very professional. The task of showing potential purchasers around the house, answering their questions and working with us to keep them well informed worked very well. As exchange and, ultimately, completion days came and went, the team shifted up a gear and it all happened in a blink of an eye. Working with Jackson-Stops was a pleasure, a 5-star experience. Thanks Jackson-Stops, Bury St Edmunds you made it all look a doddle.

TrustpilotBuying a home can be a stressful…
Buying a home can be a stressful experience, but Louise, Rebecca, and the entire team at Jackson-Stops made the process as smooth and enjoyable as possible. From the very beginning through to completion, they were with me every step of the way, offering guidance, reassurance, and exceptional support. Communication was absolutely top-tier. I was always kept informed, questions were answered promptly, and I genuinely felt like they cared about making the experience a positive one. Louise was wonderful throughout, and the rest of the team were equally professional, friendly, and incredibly helpful. I can't thank them enough for everything they did to help me purchase my new home. I would wholeheartedly recommend Jackson-Stops to anyone looking for an estate agent that truly goes above and beyond.

I cannot recommend Jackson Stops highly enough. Guy, Trudy and Toby went above and beyond to ensure my home selling experience was seamless, especially impressive at a time when the world is so uncertain. Then to move from being a client to a buyer, Guys ongoing honesty, responsiveness and overall professionalism never waivered and despite some last minute complexities arsing with my purchase.

We had an incredibly positive experience selling our home through Jackson-Stops Northampton. We couldn’t fault the service we received, from the initial valuation right through to completion.
We priced our home competitively and secured multiple offers within a couple of weeks, achieving the guide price. Sadly, we lost our buyer a few weeks later, but we went back to market and, once again, achieved the guide price within just a few days.
Sadie on reception was always incredibly helpful and efficient, particularly when arranging viewings and providing us with feedback. Ian Denton handled our sale, and we couldn’t recommend him more highly. He was professional, proactive and went above and beyond throughout the process.
We were buying an onward property through a different agent and, unfortunately, had a very poor experience with a lack of communication and proactivity. Ian was instrumental in helping to keep our onward purchase on track, regularly chasing the solicitors involved as well as our onward agent when necessary.
An honest, professional and genuinely helpful agency. We would thoroughly recommend Jackson-Stops to anyone looking to sell their home.

TrustpilotPoor service
Asked to view a property on Bures Road and was told I had to provide proof of funds before even being allowed a viewing. I understand proof of funds is needed at offer stage but demanding it just to view a house is unnecessary and comes across as rude and intrusive; the tone felt more like an interrogation. And for clarity, questioning an asking price is not the same as being unable to afford a property. In a previous transaction, we declined to overpay for a house we did not believe was worth its asking price, and it later sold for significantly less. That is a valuation judgement (a mistake by the same agent), not a funding issue.
In any case, the interaction felt dismissive, rather than professional. Plenty of other agents manage to handle high-value properties professionally without treating potential buyers like time wasters. So choosing to take my business elsewhere.
Neo · 5 February 2026
Agent replied · 25 February 2026
We are sorry that you felt dissatisfied with the interaction, however we would like to clarify our position and reassure you that our approach was both professional and standard practice.
For properties of this nature, we routinely confirm a buyer’s position prior to arranging viewings. This is done to ensure that viewings are offered to proceedable and suitably positioned applicants, and to protect our clients’ interests. Requesting an outline of funding or proof of funds at this stage is not intended to be intrusive, nor is it a judgement on affordability, but rather a normal part of qualifying enquiries for high-value properties.
At no point was it suggested that questioning an asking price equates to an inability to proceed. Valuation discussions are, of course, a normal part of the market. However, understanding a buyer’s position remains essential when managing demand, expectations, and access to viewings on behalf of our vendors.
We regret if the tone of the conversation did not come across as intended, but we are confident that our conduct was professional and appropriate. Many buyers appreciate this clarity and structure, particularly at the upper end of the market.
We respect your decision to look elsewhere and wish you every success with your property search.

Very efficient. Viewings were arranged without any fuss.

GoogleI have sold numerous properties over the years, but I can honestly say our experience with Simon and his wonderful team at Jackson-Stops in Blandford has been the best.
Throughout the process of selling my 90 year old step dad’s house ( and our family home since 1960) the team were proactive, efficient and above all kind.
We hear such horror stories relating to people moving house , ours was almost stress free .
I can’t recommend the team highly enough.

We recently completed the purchase of our new home through Jackson-Stops, and we cannot recommend them highly enough.
From start to finish, the entire team was exceptional, but a special thank you must go to Chris and Pip, who were outstanding throughout the process. Our transaction involved a very long and complicated chain, and their professionalism, expertise, and determination were instrumental in keeping everything on track.
Chris and Pip were always approachable, responsive, and proactive, providing regular updates and expertly managing communications between all parties. Their patience, kindness, and calm reassurance made a potentially stressful process far more manageable, and we always felt confident that we were in safe hands.
Jackson-Stops' long-established presence and reputation in the area are clearly well deserved. The team's local knowledge, attention to detail, and commitment to delivering excellent service were evident at every stage.
Thank you to Chris, Pip, and everyone at Jackson-Stops for all your hard work and support. We are absolutely delighted with our new home and would have no hesitation in recommending Jackson-Stops to anyone looking to buy or sell a property.

TrustpilotJackson-Stops Cranbrook Branch
Jackson-Stops, Cranbrook Branch recently sold my house. They were brilliant, helpful and great with communication which is rare these days. Rachel with whom I dealt with was lovely, so friendly and so patient with all the endless calls I made. They say selling your home is one of the most stressful things you can go through. Its no easy ride but I can only say that Jackson-Stops made it as easy and calm as it could be. I cannot recommend them highly enough. If you live in Kent and you want to sell your house, they are your go to agent. Brilliant. If Trustpilot had 10 stars to hand out, then that is what I would give Alastair and his great team in Cranbrook.

I have raised several concerns about one of their tenants, to Helen & the MD but nothing has been done. Emails are ignored or replied to months later with inadequate excuses, since they moved in in December 2025!
I am writing this review at 4 am, having been kept up until 11 pm with the 8 year old child screaming like a banshee again and now being woken up with him banging around the house!

TrustpilotPatronising and dishonest
I initially approached this company after viewing a property they were marketing and considering making an offer.
However, I was told they wouldn’t take on my own property as it was “outside their remit.” This didn’t appear accurate, as I’ve since seen them advertise several similar properties in my local area, both in size and value.
When I challenged this, they reluctantly agreed to proceed. Unfortunately, their overall manner came across as rude, patronising, and unprofessional, which did not inspire confidence. As a result, I decided to instruct another estate agent.

TrustpilotDecent Letting Agent.
Everything went well and communication was good. They were also helpful when we wanted a second viewing. The downside was our landlord was hounded during the referencing process, even when we were promised they would not be contacted if we allowed the open banking. This resulted in our landlord discovering we’re leaving before we had a chance to tell them. Aside from that, it was a pleasant experience. We dealt with Eloisa in the Weybridge office and Loren for any letting problems - both are engaging and are fast to respond.

TrustpilotJackson-Stops Reigate Office review
The Jackson-Stops (JS) Reigate office recently acted on both our sale and purchase. Their service was outstanding and we cannot speak highly enough of the entire team.JS provided unwavering support throughout what was a protracted conveyancing process. Chris was our main point of contact and was tireless in guiding us through every stage. We are also hugely grateful to the rest of the team, Louise, Tim and Andrea, and particularly to Pip for his advice and support throughout. All contributed significantly to getting us over the line.The team were proactive in chasing open queries, identifying and advising on missing documentation, and keeping us fully informed. Their ability to facilitate and work with other agents across the entire chain to was also crucial.Most importantly, JS worked closely with our solicitors, often going above and beyond to maintain momentum and resolve issues. Due to a number of delays and challenges, it’s not an exaggeration to say that without their expertise and dedication, our sale would likely have fallen through.We are enormously grateful for the exceptional service provided by JS Reigate. We would wholeheartedly recommend Jackson-Stops to anyone in need of a reliable and professional estate agent. The entire Reigate team deserves recognition for their outstanding work.
