Agent made me wait in rain for 30 mins

Agent made me wait in rain for 30 mins. Been an hour now. I still didn't get the call. When I called, other agent picked up the call. They weren't very helpful either. You guys don't answer call after 4 pm? strange. Thank you.

Another property sold sucessfully

We had another great experience selling a second property in 18 months through Cubitt & West notably because of Kurran Vasdav who acted quickly and had a buyer in just a few day of marketing. Kurran really knows his trade and is well trusted to do the right thing for the customer. We have to also call out Tamsin Billingham who is an absolute superstar. She not only managed the transition post sales to completion but was pivotal in ensuring that everything was followed up on in a timely manner and really and truly managed both ours and the buyers solicitors ensuring they acted timely and effectively. Both Kurran and Tamsin are great assets for Cubitt & West and should be recognised for going over and above. Thank you team!

Alia exhibited professionalism

Alia exhibited professionalism, knowledge and understanding of our circumstances as well as the location of the areas we showed interest in. She was honest and frank in her presentations of 4 properties- back-to-back, and gave us more insights to the properties. My wife and I look forward to meeting her during our 2nd viewing of two of the properties recommended. Well done Alia.

We chose Cubitt & West because they…came highly recommended

We chose Cubitt & West because they marketed and sold our son’s property at full asking price in double quick time. We have not been disappointed. The agents have been highly professional and helpful and have done a fabulous job in managing viewings and offers and we have a firm buyer within a week of the marketing going live. We haven’t yet found our new home, but C&W have put us in a great position to move swiftly when we find the one..

Describing the service of the firm as abysmal is being too kind

The agents did not listen to anything we told them and did not take the time to understand our situation. - The agent responsible for selling our place were changed with such frequency that we had more viewings from the estate agents to see the property than actual viewings from potential buyers. - Initially we were advised to list our property at an excessive amount. We felt the price was too high and raised the concern. We were assured that Cubitt & West knows what they are doing. We had no viewings of the property during this period.- We requested the price drop to a fair price but we were advised to use an even lower amount, we raised concerns and stated the price would give us no room for negotiations but we were assured that they sell properties at close to listed price and received in writing that they will be: "...Selling at full asking price and once we have an offer on the property it will be up to me to ensure I negotiate them up to a price that works for you". This was not even close to being achieved.- Whether the lockdown was in effect or not, the agents did not want to show the property to potential buyers and expected us to, even though we have no sales experience. If we had wanted to show buyers around, we would have chose to sell privately. When we attended viewings to purchase our property the seller's agent (other estate agents) were present every time.- The agents did nothing to get our property sold, approx 97% of the activity came from rightmove.- The agents will straight up lie. Our agents claimed they did the work to find our buyer by speaking to him and that he would not have known about the property if they did not direct him to us. We know the buyer discovered our property by chance when he came to view another property in our building (listed with another agent) and saw our property's for sale sign.- When our property was sold, we had an issue with the surveyor that was sent. He compared our Freehold property with massive communal gardens and space around it to Leasehold properties with little to no space around it. We asked the agent to contact the surveyor and get an explanation. The agent said it wouldn't help to raise the concerns with the surveyor but that they would contact them. Our requests were ignored and no response was received.- The agent wasted our time for 4 months and then put us in a position of having to accept a bad deal or restart the process with another agent.- Be warned not to fall for the recommendation of using their in-house mortgage advisor or conveyancers:- The in-house conveyancers are not necessarily cheaper, we found them to be more expensive than our personal conveyancers and they take about double the time to get anything done. The communication is poor. These conveyancers seem to sit back and relax as they are assured of their jobs.- The internal mortgage advisor could only get me the same deal as my bank and they charge you an additional £500 approx. The workload on you associated with this mortgage advisor is about an extra day or two worth of work in collecting paperwork and calls compared to using your bank.- Based on my experience using Cubit and West, I had less stress, less time wasted and less cost when I sold and bought a property privately.- This Company does not deserve their commission as they do very little to nothing to help you get your property sold.- When I told the branch manager that I was upset about the service, she showed no interest and made no attempt to rectify the issues raised. She stated she does not know where this complaint is coming from even though throughout the process we sent numerous e-mails and phone calls raising our concerns.EDIT: Cubitt & West basically denied any wrong doing in their response to my complaint. It was also revealed to us that when we originally purchased the property from them two years prior they did not hand over all the keys to us. When we moved agents they informed us they still had keys to our property, which we never gave to them in the first place.

C&W have let out my property recently and have been very helpful and switched on throughout the process. No hesitation in recommending them at all. A special mention for Abbie who has been above and beyond!

We were delighted with the service from Cubitt & West. The initial assessments of the value, selling features and optimum marketing strategy were realistic, the details were made available promptly and the sales team (Vanessa in particular) were very proactive in encouraging viewings by qualified prospective purchasers. What really stood out, though, was the sales progression service, as both we as sellers and our purchaser were working to tight deadlines. I do not believe these would have been achieved were it not for Mark's very proactive approach.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

I just sold my flat via the Fiveways branch of Cubitt and West and I have been impressed with how smoothly everything went. Jessica Robb won me over with what I felt to be a realistic valuation and an impressive marketing strategy, but it quickly became clear the whole office works as a team to ensure that from valuation to completion everything runs efficiently. Thanks to their friendly professionalism and great communication, I always felt confident I was in good hands.

Home at last

My experience buying my first home was very drawn out due to the chain on the vendors side,due to this any correspondence from the conveyancer was very sporadic,obviously because of the pandemic and people trying to take advantage of the stamp duty holiday this really put a lot strain on the industry,from my side dealing with Cubitt and West though was very positive,everyone i dealt with or spoke to we’re very polite and accommodating,Karen the sales progressor was very nice and kept me informed as best as she could during the whole procedure,I finally met this lady and had a little chat about it all on the day I received my keys,the cloud definitely had a silver lining.

We would highly recommend Cubitt and West’s Pulborough branch. From the very beginning Martin, the branch manager, and Kirsty, the sales manager, were both professional, knowledgeable, responsive and enthusiastic about selling our house. They were very proactive in marketing our property and always gave us feedback after a viewing. When our first chain collapsed they were positive and straight back on it and we had another offer within three days! When we got to the stage where exchange was imminent Martin liaised with all parties in the chain to ensure we did actually exchange which we did this week! We are so grateful to both Kirsty and Martin for all they did for us. Anyone who wants to sell a house in the local area should definitely use them!
