We have received an excellent service from Ben Spray, he couldn't have been more helpful with helping us choose a mortgage lender to purchase our first home. As we are first time buyers we found a few things confusing but Ben explains everything thoroughly and is always more than happy to answer any questions. We cannot fault the service at all and will definitely be coming back to Ben when we want to sell our home in the future. 100% recommend. Thank you Ben!!

Choosing an Estate Agent is always a gamble. But I was very pleasantly surprised how smoothly Gary and his excellent team handled our house sale. Professional, always quick to respond and great attention to detail. As an ex agent myself, it took a lot to instruct alternative agency, but it was a choice I was glad I made. Every one of the Beresfords team worked hard to get the sale to exchange. I can recommend them without reservation.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Thoughts from a property virgin

Tessa and the team in lettings have been nothing but a joy to work with for the last 12 months.This was my first buy to let property and Tessa took her time, explaining everything to me clearly and concisely, avoiding all the pitfalls and helping me every step of the way, the fully managed service meant i never had to worry about the tenant in my property, who was checked and refferenced before entering and was put in constant contact if any issues arrose.I cant thank Tessa, Sarah, Dominique and the rest of the team enough for their hard work and service.

Beresfords Review

We was with Beresfords as tenants for one year, and was very impressed with the Customer Service shown by our Inventory Clerk (Melissa McGaughin) throughout our Tenancy. Melissa listened to our concerns and always gave time for any questions to be answered. When she conducted her Inspections, she was always polite, friendly and very respectful of the home. We had dealings with some other agents at Beresfords, where Customer Service sometimes came across rather poor at times when help was needed. Melissa was no doubt the best. Thank you Melissa, you make a great agent! - From all of us!

Awesome experience it was! Debby Barns, Joe, Jack and Christine were more than helpful.

' Debby the Branch Manager is fantastic ' Debby really went out of her way to find me and my daughter a home. She was more than helpful, I’ve never had such a spectacular experience. Not only did she find me a home but her kindness really kept me going with this journey. Her team members Christine and Chloe also deserve a 5 star rating too. Honestly, after this whole experience I will only ever rent with Berefords purely based on my experience. Now my daughter and I are in a beautiful home. This was only achieved because Debby made it her priority to help me. Thank you once again :)

As a first time house buyer, we were made very comfortable with the professional service of the whole team at Beresfords Braintree. No question was considered insignificant or to much trouble, we had loads of questions being this was our first house buying experience. Lauren Payne and her colleagues were always a phone call or a email away. Whilst we were looking at houses, Lauren was really good at looking after us with offering other house options that meet our requirements that we hand not seen online. At the same time being mindful of the sellers needs. Lauren was upfront and transparent all the time making sure we understand everything. If you are looking to buy a house I would contact the Beresfords Braintree team. We have made our offer and this was accepted, Lauren has been so helpful thus far. We can not wait to move in to our new house and make it a home.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

We have recently purchased a property through Berefords and cannot recommend them highly enough. Their level of professionalism and commitment to their clients is impressive. They went above and beyond to reassure both ourselves and the sellers that everything was being taken care of and we were promptly updated throughout the process. Lauren has been there throughout to provide reassurance and answers to the thousands of questions thrown at her and has done so without a second thought. The entire team are friendly and helpful and always there to assist when necessary. They have taken a lot of stress out of an already stressful experience and we will definitely be using them again in the future.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism
