Fine & Country Hove reviews

Matt and the team were phenomenal in facilitating the sale of our flat in Hove, helping us navigate various complexities. It was a pleasure being supported by Matt on, at times, a daily basis and his calm, pragmatic approach made a huge difference in some stressful times. They also went above and beyond on a particular matter which impressed us hugely and demonstrated that it's not just about the bottom line. We will be returning to Fine & Country when we're next selling again (hopefully not for 10+ years though!).

We have just bought a house through Fine and Country in Hove. Matthew Higgins has give us exceptional service. Over the years we have not had the best of experiences with estate agents, so I am very heartened to be able to recommend Matthew with no reservations. He was honest, friendly, helpful and dealt with any hiccoughs effectively, liaising with solicitors and our buyers when necessary and keeping us informed all the way through what is a stressful and expensive procedure. Thank you Matt.

Matt Higgins is hands down the best estate agent I've ever worked with. He also has land valuation qualifications and skills which in our case really came in handy as we had a house to sell that wasn't like any other in our road. Matt was able to give us a great valuation (when frankly the other estate agents weren't sure). In the end, we had 5 offers with high quality buyers and a quick sale at a price that exceeded our expectations. Added to this are his great negotiation and communication skills. The rest of the team (I worked mainly with Dominique & Lara) were really good also and the marketing materials are a cut above the rest. Mainly I worked with Matt though and I won't be going anywhere else in future. Extremely highly recommended !

The service we received from Fine & Country was truly exceptional. Right from our first encounter with Dominique until the day we completed the sale, we were consistently impressed. What set this experience apart was the fact that we never had to chase anyone or correct any errors along the way. Having a specific price in mind that we wanted to achieve, Dominique played a pivotal role in helping us not only meet but exceed our expectations. Her meticulous attention to detail, deep understanding of the market, and exceptional communication skills all contributed to this success. One of the standout aspects of Dominique's service was her ability to filter out time-wasting inquiries, ensuring that only serious buyers were brought into the picture. This level of screening gave us the confidence to move forward with our chosen buyers, knowing they were genuinely interested. Even when we encountered a few hiccups with our seller, Dominique was there to navigate the situation seamlessly. She kept our buyers well-informed and ensured that the chain remained intact, demonstrating her commitment to a smooth and stress-free transaction. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Dominique and Fine & Country to anyone considering selling their property in the Brighton and Hove area. Their level of professionalism and dedication to their clients is truly unmatched.

Matt Higgins at Fine & Country, Hove handled the sale of our home and purchase of our new home. Both he and F&C have been brilliant throughout. Matt has always responded quickly and kept us up to date with all developments and parts of the process. Matt kept the ball rolling and we achieved completion on both properties very quickly and efficiently. He has been great to work with.

Exceptional customer service from start to finish, Matt Higgins made what could have been a complicated house purchase run very smoothly. Matt provided excellent communication throughout the process and really went above and beyond, creating a seamless purchase from start to finish. Couldn't recommend more.

We recently sold our property with Fine & Country and genuinely couldn’t have asked for a better team to guide us through what turned out to be quite a rollercoaster. From the first viewing to securing a new buyer after our initial sale fell through, the entire team - Dominique, Lara, Matthew and Mitchell - was incredible. They handled a whirlwind of activity with calm, professionalism, and a genuinely supportive approach. We’d already taken the leap of buying before selling (never again!) and were under an extremely tight deadline, but their experience and reassurance made all the difference. They kept things moving, kept us sane, and somehow even made it enjoyable. It might have been just another day at the office for them, but it was a hugely emotional milestone for us - and we’re so grateful we had them in our corner. Thank you all so much. We couldn’t have done it without you., Emma & Jason

F&C estate agents at Hove were great. Responsive, communicative, and very personable. Nothing was too much trouble. Would highly recommend their services. We were looked after by Dominique and Lara who were brilliant!

I cant praise the team at Fine and Country Hove enough, particularly Adam, Dominique and Mathew, who went above and beyond to secure a sale for us, This was no mean feat, especially with covid restrictions, but they managed it with utter professionalism, charm and good humour. Yes the fees may be a little more than other agents, but as the saying goes, you get what you pay for. From Photographs ( outstanding ) promotion and communication, a first class service all round. 10 out of 10 Thank You.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

There is no doubt about it, without Dominique Scott of Fine and Country our sale and subsequent purchase would have failed. Our transactions involved a small but difficult chain. It was nail biting involving reductions in offer prices and serious time ultimatums with threats of withdrawal. Dominique Scott nursed the transactions through gaining the confidence of all the parties involved, being in touch with them all including their estate agents and if necessary the conveyancers, smoothing the way to completion. She worked tirelessly and succeeded. The whole team at Fine and Country Hove Branch are a pleasure to deal with, professional, polite and real value for money. We are very happy to recommended them.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Chris Sawyer of Fine & Country is everything you would not expect from an estate agent. He is dedicated, calm, caring and completely honest. It is absolutely no surprise therefore that he has built a team in his image. I instructed F&C to sell both mine and my father’s home and the experience has been wholly positive from start to finish. The pictures and brochure were beyond compare to give us a good head start. My primary contact was Matthew Higgins and he guided me through the whole process with enthusiasm, proving himself to be unflappable and offering calm and considered advice throughout. Matthew was always available to me and was happy to go above and beyond to get the deal done.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Katie and the team were fantastic in helping us to sell our house. Katie’s attention to detail, her constant feedback and her endeavor to find us a suitable buyer was first class and the service she provided along with the back up from the other team members (Mandy,Freddy and Declan) was exceptional. Once a suitable buyer was found Katie ensured the process was smooth and stress free and we couldn’t recommend Fine and Country highly enough.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

I highly recommend selling your property through Fine and Country, Hove. We had our property on and off the market with other estate agents for several years. Then by chance we met Dominique and her team and within six months they sold our house. The thing I noticed immediately was a high level of professionalism and honesty. And that carried on throughout the whole process. The whole team took the time to view our property in detail so they knew the house inside out when people enquired. And viewings were with ‘actual’ potential buyers, not just anyone who fancied a look around. We actually felt that our house was on the market to sell, not just a picture in the window. Dominique and Matt have been absolutely exceptional throughout. They are a very friendly team with extremely high standards and fantastic service. If you want to sell your property I couldn’t recommend them enough.

We bought our house from owners using Fine and Country. We really appreciated their sales style. At no point did we feel rushed pressurised or hassled. As we were moving into the area it felt like a big decision, Dominique was very understanding and answered all our questions. The purchase was smooth and Dom was on hand throughout. We have moved in now and are loving our new property and getting used the new surroundings, she has been in touch to see if we are ok or if we needed any recommendations, which was a thoughtful touch. We were shown property’s with lots of agents in the area, Fine and Country were definitely our favourites and if we were looking to sell a property I would recommend them as our experience as buyers was excellent.

I totally recommend Fine and Country. I initially dealt with Adam who valued the house at a realistic value. Dominique and Chris then did the viewings. Once a purchaser had been found Dominique dealt with the sale making sure things run smoothly touching base with me by phone on a regular basis keeping all parties in the loop. Dominique was a pleasure to deal with. She is a great asset to the Fine & Country team. Thank you to you all for selling my house in a difficult uncertain market.

An excellent service from start to completion

Fine and Country have just sold our house in Wales. We found their service excellent. Gareth conducted the viewings and always informed us that he was there ready for the clients viewing. He also gave us feedback directly after the viewing. He was always professional, positive and polite. Fine and Country Wales also used a company ASAP who followed through with buyers and both parties solicitors. This kept us informed daily at the progress of the sale. I could not recommend Fine and Country enough. Excellent service, excellent people. Thank you.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you !!! to the most capable, professional and dynamic team to sell our Home. Throughout the process, Dom, Matt and the team did a magnificent job throughout the issues we encountered. They worked their socks off getting our sale and we always felt that we were their number one priority even though they were dealing with many clients. Anyone who says they don't need an Estate Agent is wrong - they have the knowledge, commitment and contacts to make it happen. Thank you again !! We highly recommend them !!

Disappointed

I have been pondering completing this review for several weeks and have now decided that I really ought to do so. We instructed your agent Pip Holden to sell our property for us in August 2023, I actually sought her out as we were very impressed with her professionalism when she showed us around another property previously. Let me say first of all that Pip is very personable and I persuaded my husband that we should use her services.

We would like to say a huge thank you to Dominique at Fine and Country for all of her hard work in helping us in our recent property sale to reach exchange. The process was fraught with frustration and delay - and Dominique ably and diplomatically handled the three sets of solicitors involved - quite a juggling process at times! We would have no hesitation in using her services again and can absolutely recommend Dominique and her team.

We had such a positive, outstanding experience with Dominique. She's warm, friendly, very efficient, an excellent communicator and complete professional. Our house had previously failed to sell with a different agency, but with Dominique we had two offers within 5 days - one of which we accepted. She also handled the purchase of our new property for us and again she was fantastic. We'd highly recommend Dominique and the rest of the team at Fine & Country.

I purchased a flat through this agent. Dominique was very knowledgeable about the property and area, responded quickly to any queries, chased solicitors to ensure exchange and completion and was helpful with access for an architect. I had been looking for properties for some time and so dealt with a number of estate agents and Dominique was considerably better than many.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism
