Thank you to the Oakheart Bury team for dealing with my recent house move. A special mention to Jason for initial communications, Stan for marketing my old house so brilliantly and negotiating both the sale and purchase, Georgina for doing the viewings, and especially to Annalise for expertly and tirelessly progressing the seven-strong chain to completion - she is amazing! I wouldn't hesitate to use Oakheart again in the future.

Oakhart Properties were amazing throughout the entire process. Andrew was thorough, approachable, and incredibly understanding, making everything feel clear and stress-free. Annalise was superb at chasing solicitors and really pushing things along to achieve a rapid move. I honestly can’t fault them or the service they provided. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Oakhart Properties again and would 100% recommend them.

I can't recommend the Oakheart team enough. They have been fantastic throughout the whole process of selling our property. A special mention to Stanley for his professionalism, advice and excellent communication. It was obvious from my first meeting with Stanley that we were in good hands. Furthermore, their mortgage team and solicitor recommendations were first class. Thank you Oakheart for turning a potentially very stressful process into a pleasurable experience.

Be careful. Misleading and not reliable

I was in the process of purchasing a property through Colchester branch of Oakheart, but later came to understand lots of information Archie and Chloe at Colchester Oakheart gave me and the contents of the advertisement on Rightmove were factually wrong!! They advertised the property as freehold, when the property was partly leasehold. Said the it was only 9 years old, when it was 20+ years old. Said the boiler is only 5 years old and services annually, when both were wrong and the boiler was 8 years old. They advertised the property ad semi-detached when it was really End of terrace.

I had a fantastic experience viewing a property with Nathaniel. He was absolutely brilliant! Really friendly, bubbly and knowledgeable and made the whole process smooth and enjoyable. The house itself was beautiful and I'm excited to be moving in soon. Since the viewing, Nathaniel has been super efficient in responding to all my questions, nothing has been too much trouble. Couldn't recommend him more :)

Worked with Nathaniel in finding a house share in the bury area - very personable, great knowledge of the area and an all round top gentleman. Helped with in every aspect and would highly recommend using them! Appreciate the efforts in getting me a place quickly!

A reasonable time to give a fair review six months in

I think it is a reasonable time to write a fair review being 6+ months in being a tenant in a bedsit managed by Oakheart Lettings. We have had one inspection of the flat (which included our individual rooms) in this time. I have found them slow in acknowledging and resolving problems, as I reported not too arduous of problems to resolve with in the first week or so and they haven't been resolved at the time of writting (which could be down to either the landlord or their agent Oakheart). Other than the reported problems the property is in contemporary and acceptable quality. As a general side note going forward I will be testing the soundproofing of the walls in my next accommodation search. I hope this review has been promising and helpful!

Exceptional service - special mention to Chloe

After moving from a long established estate agent in Sudbury after only 3 viewings in 16 weeks, I was blown away by the impact Oakheart (Sudbury) had on my selling experience. Not only did I have 30+ viewings overall, the whole process to finally accepting an offer was faultless. Oakheart are highly professional and reliable, with a friendly and approachable manner. Even though the portal provides all the feedback information you need, Oakheart still provide personal feedback from viewings and the communication is exceptional. I highly recommend Oakheart Sudbury, with a special mention to Chloe and my only regret is I didn't use them sooner. Well done team Oakheart :)

We’ve had such a positive experience…

We’ve had such a positive experience with Oakheart. Our first contact was with Zylo, who was cheery, friendly, and really helpful. We booked a few viewings and he recommended a house I didn’t think I’d like. He said, “It might surprise you, I think it’s worth a look,” and he was totally right, that’s the house we ended up buying.

Be very careful with this company

Be very careful with this company! Communication is extremely poor. Make sure you get everything in writing and do not accept the word of anyone employed by them. We were told things about the property we were going to purchase that we found to be false, other items were misleading. Would not touch them with a barge pole.

Great service

Met with Korben at Oakheart, who assisted with arranging the viewing, showing the place of interest, and helping us through the process. He’s been incredibly helpful and approachable along with being so prompt to reply to emails. During the viewing he gave us time to look around and answer any questions we had. We were also late to view the property due to heavy traffic but Korben was so patient and reassuring. Thank you for providing a great service!

Personal service and honest advice

Our journey to exchanging contracts was long and fraught with difficulty. Throughout this whole time, Oakheart kept us informed and up-to-date, and we felt that Amy really understood the issues and motivations behind them and gave some very solid and level-headed advice. She was constantly calm and always available at the end of the phone to provide reassurance and explain any issues. We also appreciated the very valuable advice provided by Josh at several decision points along the way. We have had contact with many (too many!) other Colchester-based estate agents and none of them came anywhere close to providing the high standard of personal customer service that Oakheart did. At every step of the journey from very first contact they were there providing well-reasoned and honest advice and excellent service. If you are thinking of selling your home I would highly recommend Oakheart for an honest, reliable, and excellent experience.

Oakheart found our ideal home in minutes

My partner and I had been looking for our ideal rental property for some time; we wanted to find a perfect house to rent until we decide to buy. Oakheart found it for us in minutes. Rich was brilliant and knowledgeable, and even gave us advice about ending our current tenancy. Korben went out of his way on a weekday evening to view this house with us, and was professional, understanding and welcoming. He has since maintained amazing communication, vouched for us throughout our application, and has walked us through every step. As a tenant, the support you get from Oakheart is next level. We will be recommending Korben and Rich to friends and family in the area! Thanks both!

Sold and bought through Oakheart

We recently used Oakheart to both sell and buy. Josh was clear and helpful when giving us a figure for our property. The process of putting our property on the market was easy and there were no fees until we sold. Buying from them was good as well, they knew the property well when we viewed it and answered any questions we asked. When we had our offer accepted and had sold, our sales progressor Annalise kept us in the loop every week and chased both our seller and buyers, which was super helpful and definitely helped things move forward. I’d recommend anyone selling or buying to go with Oakheart.

Exceptional Support from Oakheart Sales Progressor

We recently had the pleasure of working with Amy and I couldn't be more impressed with the level of assistance we received throughout the process. From start to finish, she demonstrated a high level of professionalism, dedication, and expertise that truly made a difference to our experience.Amy went above and beyond to ensure that every aspect of the sales process went smoothly. She was always readily available to answer any questions or concerns we had, providing clear and thorough explanations every step of the way. Her communication skills are exceptional, keeping us informed and updated at all times alleviated any stress or uncertainty our client may have had and therefore made our job easier too.We felt Amy showed genuine care and empathy throughout the process, taking time to understand our specific approach and preferences.HHP deals with many agents during our line of work but we really felt supported and valued as a client with this one.Thank you, Amy for your outstanding dedication to get this one over the line!Best Wishes HHP Team !

Horrendous

Horrendous, if you are thinking of renting through Oakheart, don’t! They are my managing agents and have failed to repair any issues. The property I am renting has been deemed inhabitable and we have been met with nothing but disrespect. They still expect us to live in these conditions and suffer weeks and weeks worth of work. I cannot put into words how awful this has been. To the point I have had to request a termination. Not even a 1 star.

We’ve had our property up for sale with Oakhart Bury st Edmund’s since July 2025. We have only had 3 viewings all of which we have done ourselves as no agents have been available to do the viewings. The photos of the property are great but I had to ask for them to be rearranged as they were not in order and had just been uploaded with a generic listing description when the property was first listed. The communication with Andrew (the agent dealing with the sale of our home) has been extremely poor, we are constantly given excuses on new builds and incentives being offered as an excuse for why we aren’t getting anyone through the door or getting any interest in the property. I would recommend doing some more research into estate agents before choosing Oakhart.

We have been trying to purchase a property for when we relocate to the UK. George has been outstanding. He took the time to call us in the US with available properties - something no other agent has ever done. If you are thinking of selling your property with Oak Heart, know that you will have an agency that truly values your business and will go above and beyond to find a buyer.

I would not recommend Oakheart.

I would not recommend Oakheart.Tommy is a great salesman and very charismatic when you first speak to him, but that is where the praise ends.He first stated that I would only be signed up with Oakheart for 8 weeks, my fault that I took him at his word when the paperwork came over and I did not read fully but he had tied me in for 20 weeks.This would not have been a problem if the house had sold but it has not, I have had minimal viewings despite lowering the house price to the recommended sale price after discussing with Andrew the Oakheart manager, who himself seems clueless. When I have ask the minimal viewings that have come round, they have answered that they were pressured to come round and it was not the area they were looking for, a waste of everyone's time.I am not stating that other estate agents are better but they are definitely not as bad as Oakheart.Stay Away.

What a great team!

Having had two potential sales of my mother’s house fall through with another agent, I contacted Josh at Oakheart Property and from that minute everything changed! He got 20 viewings in 2 weeks and we ended up with a choice of buyers, one of which completed last week. The whole team at the Prettygate branch were amazing: they were all enthusiastic, positive and friendly and never left me in doubt that they would make that sale! Annalise was a wonderful sales progressor, always keeping in touch with positivity yet realism. I can’t thank them enough for all that they did and would recommend them unconditionally.

Fantastic experience as a new landlord

As a first time landlord I can’t thank Rich at Oakheart enough for making it such a smooth process. The marketing material was very professional and Rich found a very appropriate tenant all signed up within 24 hours of my flat going on the market. So to any new or existing landlords, I’d recommend you give Rich a call, he and the team at Oakheart are streets ahead of any other lettings agent I have ever encountered, who just offer such unreliable customer service. Thanks again Rich.

I had my house listed with another agent for 3 months before making the decision to switch to George at Oakheart Bury and my only regret was not doing so sooner! Fantastic communication, followed through exactly what he said he would do and also negotiated my onward purchase saving me a large amount of money. George is a credit to the company, it’s clear to see why this company will go from strength to strength!

If I could give zero stars I would

If I could give zero stars I would, do not go anywhere near this company (Colchester branch) to let out your property. All good while they are taking a so called 'management fee' from you every month but when it comes to dealing with the TDS to help you get some deposit back from significant damage left by the tenants then I have been bitterly disappointed. Emails not replied to, telephone calls not returned, and to top it all have not told me that the TDS have awarded the deposit back to tenants. I resorted to phoning TDS myself when Oakheart have failed to communicate with me to be told that the 28 days has passed since the financial settlement has been made so I, as the Landlord, can no longer raise a dispute. I will be in contact with the Ombudsman.

Fast and reliable

Korben Levey from Oakheart Letting has been a great help in finding our home for the next few years. Took only a week for everything to be in place and he has been so accommodating to us with our queries and concerns. Thank you!
