GoogleReview for Wendy and Jacob. We found Beresfords to be extremely helpful and polite when selling my Mother's property. They were efficient and helped us with every stage of the process. The sale went through speedily and at a good price. Wendy was always a friendly voice on the end of the phone.

TrustpilotA Star is Born ! Brilliant Service at Beresfords
We have never let a property before.We walked in off the street and were met by Charlie Richardson.He suggested a flat which turned out to be beautiful and which we have agreed to taking.What we liked especially about Charley was not only that he was so personable but he explained everything with great clarity and respected the fact we were novices never assuming that we knew everything about the procedure.He is a young person with a lovely manner.In short Beresfords are truly fortunate to have such an outstanding employee.Paul and Nicola

TrustpilotI have been extremely impressed by the friendly & professional service.
I have been extremely impressedby the professional and friendly service from Beresfords and in particular from Julia Dexter. I had visited the new build site just to take a quick look on a Sunday afternoon. Julia was showing another buyer one of the homes. She was so warm and friendly and promised to be back to show me all the available properties once she had finished her appointment. She then spent a couple of hours getting to know me with genuine interest, gaining an understanding of my housing needs and showing me all of the available poperties. Since then Julia has been incredibly helpful, following up on the progress of my house sale and answering all of my questions. I highly recommend Beresfords and especially Julia who has made the experience of finding a new home an absolute pleasure.

GoogleHaving dealt with Jack over the past nine months, we can honestly say that he was absolutely fantastic and a real credit to both himself and Beresfords.
At the start of our search, Jack went above and beyond for us, taking our weekly calls despite the market being fairly dry. It was worth it as he eventually put us onto a great home.
Throughout our experience, Jack displayed excellent communication skills and we really appreciated that. Jack would always return calls swiftly, speak and describe homes accurately and didn’t make up any nonsense in attempt to do ‘the big sell’. Jack is also an incredibly likeable person - we both really enjoyed doing viewings with him. Honest, friendly, helpful, attentive and the list goes on. We are both genuinely very grateful for the support that Jack provided.
When Jack wasn’t around, due to holiday, the rest of the Beresfords team were very helpful and we thank them for that.

TrustpilotAvoid at all costs..shambolic
If I could give a minus rating, then I would. My partner and I missed out on a house we desperately wanted due to the inefficiency of the Brentwood branchWe had viewed the house twice, had a great chat with the vendors and left with the understanding I would be placing an offer as soon as I’d sold mine ( lots of interest and we were negotiating with first time and cash buyers at the time ) I communicated with the agent that this was the case and to keep me informed on any activity around the house. A couple of weeks passed by and thought to myself I’ll just email the agency to check in. To my dismay a cash buyer had visited the property and made them an offer which the vendor deemed acceptable. I asked if they’d actually accepted, as this could have been construed in a couple of diffirent ways. I was dismayed that a simple request was not followed. An explanation of “ I was going to message you when I was back from my visits today”..utter rubbish…I then replied back with an improved offer that I wanted put to the vendor..I chased this up over several days…eventually after calling i then had an email back to say they were on holiday…which is fine, but people pick up emails and calls on holiday…I then took matters into my own hands and left a note at the property for the vendor to call me, because at this stage, I’m absolutely fed up Beresfords ( I’d already had a very frustrating experience with them as a buyer when I bought this current house, but that’s another story..) I then have a call with the vendor directly. It transpires they never had an email from the agency?!! They are legally obliged to present my offer…which they didn’t ??? A phone call from someone senior at the branch explains they left a message on the vendors phone…a solitary voicemail ( on the husbands phone…) but the wife is the one who has been dealing with everything and she confirms that she’s heard nothing from them at all….It’s the vendor’s prerogative to accept the cash buyer ( better position/maybe more £ ) but I’m absolutely dismayed by the level of service and I’d urge anyone to avoid this branch. An awful and frustrating experience.At the other end of the scale, my agent Durden and Hunt, in particular James Gibbon has been a breath of fresh air. Highly proficient and a brilliant communicator!…..Update : Read the response from the customer service manager. What a patronising, condescending, standard template response from someone with no idea of what is going on?!I emplore anyone selling their house to avoid like the plague….……

Hi Lee,Having read your recent review, I am naturally concerned and disappointed with the comments made within. Following a detailed appraisal of your file, notes of which are added in real time and subsequent conversations with individuals involved, your dependent interest on the property was registered accordingly. We will do all possible to ensure we are in regular communication, but please understand, a busy office will need to prioritise and as such, we may have not had the opportunity to keep you fully informed with events at this particular property. With regards to your revised offer, which again was formally put forward when you were still dependent upon a sale, the office tried to call the sellers whilst they were on holiday. Unfortunately, taking matters into your own heads by approaching the sellers directly upon their immediate return as we were unable to make contact, did not sway their decision. The office would have been more appropriately placed to discuss this with them.Time is of the essence with any potential purchase, particularly as in this case, when a property proves to be popular. Whilst it is in our interest to put forward any offers to a seller, it is ultimately the seller’s choice when deciding which purchaser to go with. Their decision will usually be based on amount offered and the purchaser’s buying position. Unfortunately, in this case, the seller decided to go with another party as the buyers were in a proceedable position.Whilst I appreciate your frustrations, you were not able to move forward due to the fact your property had not sold. It is currently a busy marketplace and unless you secure a sale, you are likely to miss out on any suitable property as other people will be able to proceed.Please accept my apologies as communication could have been better initially, but the outcome would not have been any different. I note with interest, your property remains available on the market for sale, despite recent activity. Should you wish to discuss this matter further or require further help with any aspect of your moving plans, please feel free to contact me on a.horsley@beresfords.co.uk Alison Horsley, Customer Services Manager.

Hannah was wonderful dealing with the end of the tenancy. The property was left in an unexpected state and she took a lot of care in documenting everything, giving recommendations for next steps and clarifying all my questions and concerns (it was the first time I've rented a property so a lot was still new to me).

GoogleEntering my information on the website to express interest in renting some apartments is just a waste of time. Weeks went by and I was never contacted by the agent. The apartments are still on the website and some have even had their prices reduced. I even called to express interest in a specific apartment. The agent asked me some strange questions, such as whether my child is a boy or a girl. He asked when I wanted to move. I said I wanted to move in two months, so the agent told me that the landlord was only interested in tenants who wanted to move in immediately. I never said I wouldn't start paying rent right away if I liked the house. I didn't have the opportunity to see it. And the truth is that that apartment has already had its price reduced several times and has been available for rent for three months. Clearly, I wouldn't hire this agency to rent a house, much less to put my own house up for rent.

GoogleDan and Wendy at Beresfords were superb from start to finish. From the initial visit and valuation, right through a slower market and the offers process, they were proactive, focused, and relentless in keeping momentum while managing my expectations clearly and honestly.
They did far more than simply list the property, constantly pushing, chasing, and keeping things moving. They were always at the end of the phone, supporting not just the sale itself but also offering helpful advice on potential onward purchases. Their support through exchange and completion was outstanding. Calm, professional, and genuinely invested in getting the deal done. Highly recommended.
