GoogleI can’t recommend Adrians more highly. They go the extra mile, are courteous and on hand at any time, regularly in touch to provide updates, and are so proactive in helping with a smooth sale or purchase. We bought from Adrians and were so impressed we appointed them for our subsequent sale. Dan and the team are very good at what they do, and know the area and local market so well. They have surpassed all of our expectations and I would not hesitate in recommending them to others. The best estate agent in Chelmsford in my view.

GoogleRecently marketed our property with Adrian’s and might as well have advertised in Whizzer and Chips. Zoopla kept emailing me when properties in my area sold but Adrian’s struggled to even arrange viewings. In my opinion they are short staffed but overall the service they provide is extremely poor.

FacebookMoving house is a stressful business, but both Gary and Kathrine were always there to help and advise when we had to deal with super slow solicitor or when we had serious queries after the building survey.
They made the whole process so much easier by being friendly and professional. There are only two estate agents in Chelmsford that we would recommend: Adrians and Home Partnership. Don’t waste your time and energy on dealing with anyone else whether you are selling or buying a property.

View Agents BuyerSecond to None
As per review title says my wife and I found that Gary and other members of Adrian's should have title of Second to None,
We found that they clearly made sure that as OAPs we needed a little extra time to be aware of all the details however large or small were understood by us both.
I had approached two other agency's before I approached Adrian's who by now had been recommended,
immediately I witnessed a totally different approach to giving advice on how to sell what is your home.
Also we were made aware that the values given by other agency's were not as big a target to aim for and needless to say that the figure set by Gary of 40.000 to 50.000 more was reached by our buyer.
To finalise our comments we can only say that Xmas has come early for us and we both would like to thank Gary and other members of Adrian's for all their efforts to come to a very satisfactory conclusion thank you.

View Agents SellerCould not have been better
After my mother's death I had to sell her bungalow in Chelmsford.. I had a couple of estate agents visit and decided to go with Adrians for a number of reasons: experience; knowledge and passion for the area, and the fact that all my questions were answered in a clear and precise way e.g. should all the furniture be left in? Yes, it looks better and makes it easier to sell. I asked the same question of another estate agent and was told, "It's up to you. Some people leave it in, some people take it out". = which was not very helpful.. I asked Adrians about commission and was told the exact figure. Asking another estate agent, I was told, "Well, it's negotiable." So, again, very vague. Adrians said that although bungalows traditionally sell to the older person, younger people are now buying them because Chelmsford is an excellent area for commuters.. The other estate agent said that my mother's bungalow would "only sell to an older, retired person." In fact, Adrians sold it to a younger person, still working....So from the outset I was impressed with Adrians and Gary and his colleagues did an excellent job. The bungalow sold to the first person that saw it and, although there were some stressful moments along the way, mainly due to the length of time that solicitors and red tape took to get probate on my mother's will, which was frustrating for the buyer - who had to be placated by Adrians. - they saw it through to a successful conclusion and the sale went ahead.. Throughout, everyone I dealt with was professional, helpful and worked hard to clinch the deal, And if you think that an estate agents work is done once an offer is made on the property, Adrians are proof that this is not the case, as they were there every step of the way to help and advise, right up to the moment that contracts were exchanged and completion was achieved. It was a great help to me, as I was not only selling a property but at the same time dealing with the grief following my mother's death and the emotionally challenging job of sorting out all her possessions. I would certainly recommend Adrians.

Ray went above and beyond the role of an estate agent to help my family get their dream home in their dream location. When we lost out on one property he did everything in his power to find us an even better one. Once our offer was accepted we receive regular calls and letters updating us of every step to make the process do exchanging as simple as possible. I would recommend Adrian's to anyone wanting to buy/sell a house.

Rian phoned me one or two times a week just to give me updates.

We would like to thank Rian for helping us with our Bungalow purchase, which did not turn out quite as straight forward as we would have liked it to be.
He listened patiently to our concerns and was very professional in dealing with them.
He was calm and dealt with everything he said he would.

Always very polite and knew what he was talking about.

Having dealt with Adrians when we purchased our house in 1990 we had no hesitation in contacting them when we decided to place our home on the market. The quality of the service we received was outstanding; Gary provided honest expert advice, was a source of knowledge and support but most importantly kept his promises and maintained contact all through the process
We would have have no hesitation in recommending Gary and the team

Would like to thanks Gary, James & Rian for their fantastic service they provided whilst buying a new house in Chelmsford.
From the offer process to completion, they provided fair analysis of the situation, whilst answering any ad-hoc questions asap. So much so that i was going to them for any updates rather than my own estate agent (!)
In addition, i always found that they were reachable via phone/email and helped mediate any contentious issues professionally and amicably.
Going forward, i will look no further when looking to sell my property and can happily recommend to anyone looking for a straightforward, efficient estate agent.
Thanks for all the help

View Agents BuyerProfessional, Friendly, Exceptional, Outstanding Service
We would like to thanks Rian Davis, our negotiator for his outstanding service on our recent purchase. We were new to Chelmsford; Rian has helped us providing all the necessary information at every step during our negotiation. He understands our requirements and always guided us with a very friendly, confident and positive attitude. We really like his professional behaviour. At times, when he is not around he always made sure, we are well informed and someone else from Adrians is ready to help us. We were a first time buyer and had many doubts regarding buying process (solicitor, mortgage etc.), Rian has gone extra mile providing and supporting us with information which made the entire process go smoothly. His communication style is exceptional, we never felt out of touch with him, he constantly updated us through emails and phone.
We are very happy in the entire process and can't thank you enough Rian and the whole team at Adrians for your excellent service throughout.
We would highly recommend Rian and Adrians!

My brother and myself first contacted Gary regarding the probate valuation on our father's property. He was both helpful and considerate so when we decided to explore the idea of renting the property he was our first point of call. Throughout that process he kept us up to date with progress on a regular basis and was able to offer advice and answer our questions. Viewings came thick and fast and his help was invaluable at that time.
We have been very impressed by Gary's extensive knowledge of the local property market and his willingness to go the extra mile in making sure we were happy with Adrian's service.
I would have no problem in recommending Adrians to any one who is considering either selling or renting out a property.

We recently purchased a property through Adrians and have been very pleased with the professionalism of all the staff that we have come across. Everyone we spoke to was friendly and accommodating, dealing with all our queries quickly and efficiently.
Our purchase was not quite as straight forward as we hoped but the team at Adrians kept us informed and up to date with progress when needed. They certainly helped a great deal just as things started to slow down to ensure all outstanding items were addressed promptly whilst making sure everyone's individual needs / timing requirements were met.
I bombarded Gary, Nigel and James with countless emails and calls but without their help and patience, we would not have completed the purchase when we did. Many thanks again.

View AgentsEfficient, effective, friendly and competitive.
As far as estate agents go, I don't honestly think you could get a better service from what I've experienced with Adrians. I have used them now twice to buy and sell and on both occasions the service has been fantastic. On my recent sale, which took the best part of 5 months and 3 buyers, Adrians proved essential and saved me so much time and effort had I had to do the chasing myself. They work efficiently and effectively soliciting current and accurate updates up and down the chain, and unlike some agents anyone at Adrians, be that Rian, James, Gary or Ray, can deal with queries to ensure prompt continuity. Competitively priced too I highly recommend giving them a call.
