GoogleDarren from Haywood Fox in Brockenhurst was a pleasure to deal with regarding the purchase of our new home. He was professional, approachable, knowledgeable and always happy to answer any question, no matter how trivial, and he worked hard to solve the many issues that arose. Darren remained so positive throughout the long process (8 months from the initial viewing!), coping with our rising stress levels and helping us to keep the belief that it would happen - which thankfully it did! Thank you!

GoogleDealing with Darren at Hayward Fox proved to be a very rewarding experience. He has such infectious enthusiasm and was able to sum up our exact needs after viewing just a couple of properties, very quickly pointing us in the direction of what turned out to be a quite different but unexpectedly ideal home for us. After our offer was accepted, he kept in regular touch, providing us with weekly updates and ensured that any ongoing questions we had were immediately forwarded on to the vendors with their replies instantly sent back to us. My wife and I found that overall, Darren was most pleasant and helpful and he is clearly a great asset to what has been a most professional agency to deal with.

GoogleMy partner and I are currently purchasing a property through Hayward Fox and Darren has gone above and beyond to make sure the whole process goes as smoothly as possible. We have just exchanged today and Darren has constantly kept us informed by phone or email and is always happy to speak to the other people involved in the chain to speed the process up and keep everybody informed at each stage, the service Darren and his team provide is fantastic and we would highly recommend using Hayward Fox if you are selling or buying.
Thank you for all your help, we are just looking forward to moving in now to our new home in a few weeks time.

GoogleWould just like to give a huge shout out to Ally and loraine who where absolutely wonderful at sorting out our rental from start to finish during our move . These ladies were both professional and extremely helpful during a stressful time . It is so rare to find a company that still works on catering to individuals rather than just following the guide book .We really appreciate everything you did for us ,thank you lovely ladies x

GoogleLocal knowledge and professionalism sold our house in a quiet market. Darren has been truly excellent from beginning to end in keeping us informed of progress and making us feel they were on top of the whole process. Chris was also instrumental in arranging the viewings.

GoogleFrom the very first viewing of the property we have now moved into, through achieving a sale on our home Darren was always completely professional, honest and positive. The chain/circle we ended up in could not have happened without his tenacity and patience. His local knowledge enabled him to pull together a perfect circle of moves around Sway without any of the nightmares so often associated with moving.

GoogleWe unfortunately had to sell my parents home as they had both moved into a care home, from the start Darren was really helpful, honest & efficient, due to the current market we had a few ups & downs on the way but Darren constantly reassured and advised us and we have now successfully sold their home.
highly recommend Darren and the team & Hayward Fox

GoogleWe have only good things to say about Chris and the whole team at Hayward Fox.
They sold the house of our late father with enthusiasm and passion, they were great advisors and really helped us navigate the whole process from listing to completion.
All this conducted with excellent professionalism and quick communication, we were kept up to date throughout and Chris in particular helped navigate a tricky and sometimes stressful and emotional process for our family, with compassion and energy.
Thanks to all the whole team.
I wouldn’t hesitate in my recommendation to enlist them as your agent.

GoogleWe Wholeheartedly recommend Darren Walter at Hayward Fox in Brockenhurst office, and The Sway office. The purchase of our house was complicated. Without Darren's help, support ,and encouragement, we would not have completed the purchase on our own. We were buying long-distance, and Darren certainly was our Guiding force.
Thank you so much Darren

GoogleHaving moved home far too many times, I had to admit, I was not the greatest fan of estate agents.
Darren at Hayward Fox was like a breath of fresh air and his total commitment to getting a complicated conveyancing through was admirable with exceptional communication the whole way.
I'd strongly recommend Darren and the Hayward Fox team if you're considering selling a property in the area that HF operate. 5* all the way.
