GoogleGemma Woodhouse was friendly and professional from the outset. She was enthusiastic about the property she was showing us. When we were delayed exchanging contracts on our property, Gemma was engaged with the process, maintaining contact with us.
Gemma was very responsive to messages and queries and very efficient at processing the referencing and paperwork. This resulted in us being able to sign the contract and receive the keys to the property enabling us to measure up in advance of our move. This all happened in a busy rental market within 48 hours of us being able to proceed.
We are pleased that we are renting via Abbotts and Gemma Woodhouse is a credit to them!PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

GoogleI’ve recently had to move due to changes in my last Landlords situation and found my current letting on Abbott’s website.
From the first interaction, to the moving in day, I have been helped every step of the way.
Of note, Gemma and Kerry were fantastic, kept me informed every step of the way, they couldn’t of made it easier.

GoogleThe worst agent I have ever dealt with, Twice!.. Lies, cover stories and pure rudeness. Their solicitors are useless too. I'd give a wide berth, Jamie is patronising and Alex is plain rude. My estate agent was disgusted with them.
They lied to stop me viewing the house until I Contacted the seller and arranged it myself and made her aware. Luckily I did buy the house but only because myself and the seller were in contact and ran it ourselves. Long story short, abbotts did nothing for 5 months and then on the last day we were supposed to move, pushed me to go ahead with removals on the Friday when nobody had exchanged, knowing full well that it wouldn't happen. 4pm came, all our stuff had gone to the new house in the removals vans and we were sat waiting an hour away from our old house, for abbotts to ring and say its not happening today cos accounts had gone home. We then had a mad panic to find storage for our stuff for the weekend and had to go back to our old empty house with 2 kids and lots of animals and no belongings and spent 3 nights sleeping on the hard floor. It cost us £1000 in extra storage and another day of removals fees, I had to go and buy clothes for the weekend for me and the kids and a fish tank and hamster cage for some of our animals. Never in my life would I ever deal with abbotts again, to buy or sell.NegativeResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

GoogleHave to say thank you to Gemma at Abbotts Bury St Edmunds, she could not have been more professional, helpful and knowledgeable about the area and the properties available. With us not knowing the area very well, Gemma escorted us from property to property and spent a lot of time trying to help us find the ideal property, that would meet our needs.
If our dealings with Gemma are a reflection of the whole team, then you can't go wrong asking them to assist with your property needs.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

GoogleThe customer service of both Kerry and Gemma was well. But there is a house on 8 Teasel Close in Red Lodge that we rented & the landlord is awful. We moved out in December and they refused to give us any of our deposit back. We reached out continuously and after a month of no response, they started making bogus claims & changing prices of deductions. They even tried to deduct a cleaning fee when we already paid for an end of tenancy clean through Abbott’s company cleaners! We raised a dispute, which we won, and finally received our deposit back in April (4 months later). I’m ashamed to see Abbott’s represents the landlord and worried for any future tenants that might live there.NegativeProfessionalism

GoogleWe purchased our property through Abbotts. Jamie Daniel, Senior Sales Negotiator, managed the whole process from showing us round the property through to exchange. Jamie and Alex have gone above and beyond to ensure the smooth process of the exchange, helping us to follow up with solicitors and providing advice every step of the way. They were always available to speak with us and ensured great communication with our sellers. If we ever go through the sales process again, then I'll definitely be calling Jamie and his team to manage the sale.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism
