Sophie has been great

Sophie has been great! I have relocated for a new job and she helped me find the best place that ticked all of my boxes - making the relocation run smoothly! Prompt communication and very informative. I was accommodated for when needing a virtual viewing which was very helpful.

Long Contract

From the start my experience has been terrible with 32 weeks contract High Fee's do not enter or commit yourself into any long contract.you then have to lower the price they don't lower the fee.you are still left after this period with no sale.

Appalling Service from Connells North Swindon

My Son has recently purchased a flat through Connells North Swindon Office. I have not had a worse experience with an estate agent. It started off on the wrong foot where they credit scored and approached my son about a mortgage without his permission. There were some delays and challenges and we got a fair amount of help whilst we were still targeting a pre Christmas exchange. As soon as that was missed we had no support - assume bonuses are paid on completionsI'm used to the estate agent being there through the process and helping to resolve any issues encountered. No such luck here - disappeared and wouldn't respond. I also emailed and left a message for the branch manager to call me - surprise, no one did.This was his first purchase so needed support through the process - appalling service - avoid using if you are expecting any help and support. They seem to be solely focused on targets and bonuses

Unprofessionalism towards tenants

Rented a property from Connells, at the end of term landlord tried to exploit and grab the deposit and Connells acted like they can’t take any responsibility. Connells were the ones rented the property and should’ve taken some responsibility.

Excellent Mortgage Advisory Service at Connells Cambourne

I recently worked with Andy, Connells Cambourne's mortgage advisor, and I'm thrilled with the service. From start to finish, Andy provided expert guidance, ensuring I found the perfect mortgage fit. His professionalism, clear communication, and commitment to customer satisfaction were outstanding. We finally purchased our first home. I highly recommend Andy for anyone in need of top-notch mortgage advice.

Landlord - full managed service - lettings

AVOID - I let my property with Connells for over five years while I was living abroad. I can honestly say that this has caused so much extra stress. Absolutely no point having a managed service. Everything was difficult, they can't organise anything - I mostly ended up being put in touch directly with the tenants to organise anything needed. They also try to con you out of money at every opportunity. Sabotaging efforts to use my own (trusted) contractor to force me to use their own at a much higher rate. They recommended someone who never provided a receipt, leaving me out of pocket. I would have changed but it was difficult to do from abroad. I can't believe they are still in business.

Wow! I don't normally write reviews however credit to Nicky and the team for outstanding customer service, friendliness and helping with my questions. I'm a landlord and was weighing up different options for my property, I was given free advice which is unheard of in 2021, I am grateful and will be doing business with you in the not so distant future as you have given me confidence and a good relationship that i can trust.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Sadly, zero stars are not possible.

We purchased our home June of this year and engaged Connells to complete the survey which would determine whether or not we would finalise the purchase. The survey comes back, and it’s clean! The property was considered in excellent shape, and windows and floors “in good working order with no repair necessary.” Upon moving in, we immediately discovered that the survey was not, in fact, clean. There were serious issues which require immediate replacement and / time or repair, all of which would have been easily spotted by a competent professional. The total bill will be approximately £15,000 to repair the damage. Would not have proceeded with the purchase had the survey accurately represented the property. You have been warned.

Honestly 5 stars is not enough for everything that I got ! I had such a good opportunity to rent a house through Connells, That now I can name it home. I was in such a hurry to do so, i Had the pleasure to be helped by Nikky ( Nikky Boyles), I came around a house that i really liked, and give a call, Nikky was wonderful, as i have applied and just a couple of hours later i got a call from them, She helped me in each step, understanding my circumstances and making sure that she will do it fast and easy, i have called , spoke with her, had such a great conversation and assure me that everything will be done really fast, she booked me to see the house just a couple of hours later, i have seen it loved it and been assured that the house is like mine now, paid the fee and got it off market as there were other people that were interested in it but Nikky made my day as it was one day before new years eve, and honestly I would never in a million years was thinking that i can get the house that fast and around holidays but Nikky took out time of herself to make sure that everything is done as fast as it can be, i have seen the house on 30th of December and on the 9th of January i have moved in, they helped me with everything, from utilities to meeting with the landlord and making sure if i have any difficulties to give her a call, never seen such a good service and i'm so glad that i contacted them, so easy, so fast and so comfortable, been dealing with other agencies in the past and been lead on for weeks even months, but with Connells i had everything sorted out in less than a week, good job to them and hope they keep on doing what they do cause honestly they took all the pressure i had on my shoulders!PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

The best money we have ever spent. Buying a house at the start of the first lockdown all of a sudden felt very scary and unsure. Kasia was an absolute rock. Not only did she guide two first time buyers through the process to allow us to make informed, unbias choices on our first mortgage. She also went above and beyond to support us during the every changing COVID guidelines. I genuinely do not think we would have completed on this house without her. Plus it has taken away the stress of the re-mortgage in year two as we know we will get the same support. We massively recommend!PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

5* service- would HIGHLY recommend!!! Most efficient estate agent we have ever dealt with. They kindly allowed us to view the property at late notice & Rhys gave us a very professional and informative viewing. Following our application, everything was dealt with quickly & communication was excellent both via email and telephone. The 'Tilli' moving in assistance website package was so helpful & made the moving in process so much easier, as well as the help with contents insurance by the letting agent. Thank you so much Nikki & Rhys- you are a credit to your company & we would definitely use Connells Estate Agents again! :)PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Had my survey today and honestly couldn’t have felt more at ease. Super kind and polite throughout, even complimented my home. Came prepared with ladders for the loft, wore shoe protectors, and even helped put the hatch back that I couldn’t.

fleas...

Moved into a rental property that was not ready on time, then moved in at a delayed date to find the property wasn't clean and the broken oven that was meant to be replaced was still in there. Within three days, we discovered the house was infested with fleas and had to leave with all our belongings still in the home. We had an agreement that the tenancy would be terminated immediately and monies returned to us and had to wait until the house had been professionally treated to be able to get any household items out. Refund kept being promised by the branch, yet was nowhere to be seen, after making a formal complaint to head office - we now finally have our funds paid back after three months from the date we moved out. Everything that could of gone wrong with this rental experience, did indeed go wrong. Staff at the branch were polite, just everything was handled in the most shambolic way ever. Wouldn't recommend from my personal experience.

Stay away from them

I used their service for let only because their price was cheaper than other estate agents. It was a simple process. Pictures were already online and the tenants were found the next day. But the communications afterwards were poor, staff dealing with it totally locking of professionalism and responsibility! I had to keep calling their manager in another branch to ask what was happening and chase the result. On the day the tenants were supposed to go to the branch to get the keys, the shop was closed! Even it was a normal working day and no reason was informed! I will never use them again!

Never again. The Worst. Connells Survey & Valuation ltd

I wish I had seen all of the reviews (on here) before I decided to use Connells. I would have saved myself a lot of headache, stress and money.There is no point telling you everything which is so bad about this company, because it would take too long and most has been covered by other reviews, but to avoid the pain of what I went through, I will respectfully and caringly warn you; DO NOT USE THEM FOR ANYTHING.I hired them for a property valuation. From the very beginning I should have followed my gut, but I didn't because they were the only ones who where able to give me an appointment within the time scale I needed. Big mistake. They were cold and fairly rude on the phone, almost like I was bothering them and they wanted me to hurry up and get off the phone. Needless to say, I still booked with them, hoping that was a one off.After paying for the survey booking, I was not contacted with a confirmation date or update of any kind. I had to chase them up and was eventually given a date. The day before the scheduled date, I receive a message stating a different date to what was agreed. I contact them to inform them I was given an incorrect date. With no apology or understanding, I am told that the date had to be changed because of available and that's it. This really angered me, due to all the arrangements I had to make in order to make sure someone was in my property to give them access. But I still went along with it, out of desperation. Needless to say, when the surveyor arrived, he refused to do the survey because i was not personally present; even though it was specifically arranged and agreed for the estate agent representative to be present, 7 days prior to the appointment. I'm sure you can already imagine what I was feeling and saying, once I received my estate agents call. When I called up Connells, they nonchalantly apologised and simply said I would have to book another appointment. When the survey did actually happen, I was told I would receive the report within 5 days. I waited 7 days and then had to chase them up for it myself. No apology of any kind was offered.Wait, I've not finished; upon reading my report, they had valued my property £30k less than another survey company and also £35k less than my neighbours property which had just sold.I could go on, but I will stop there.All I will say is that I will never ever use any of their services again and I will tell everyone I know the same.Look elsewhere if you want a professional, respectful and caring service. Connells are the worst I've ever experienced. There should be a no-star option.

*CONNELLS MUTLEY PLAIN*

*CONNELLS MUTLEY PLAIN*An honest opinion based on facts to prevent you going through the stress of these inconsiderate idiot's. Since the sale I've heard lots of very similar situations so thought I'd spread the word. From day one, Ross came to the house to value it and seemed very good, promised the earth as you'd expect from any estate agent. Valued the house 5-10k higher than others(purposely done to get you on board, who doesn't want an extra 5-10k) That's the positives done! We agreed a 1% fee, Ross the manager put down a figure on the contract and not 1%. We didn't notice this until he had left. We spoke to him on the phone and he agreed to change it, "he would send us an email to confirm it" Weeks went by and we chased for the email, several emails and phone calls went to Ross yet this never got solved. We ended up paying more fees because of his intentional mistake on the contract. Our own fault for not making sure we had it sorted, however Ross clearly knew what he had done and had purposely ignored our emails. Whilst the sale was ongoing with viewings etc we never got any feedback until we called them. Several times we called and they would always say "we were just about to call you" They even held onto offers for days and we only got these when we called them to chase feedback. So we finally agreed a price with the buyer. Connells told us the buyer had no chain and wanted to move in within 6 weeks with no surveys etc as they needed to move in ASAP. This was January 14th 2021, fast forward to July 2021 and the sale is still dragging out because of the chain(the chain that connells told us didn't exist) We found out through our buyers estate agent that the buyers buyer lives in Thailand. This was the reason for a major hold up and very nearly lost us our new build purchase. Credit to Lawsons who didn't have to go out of their way to chase and explain things to us. Things that Connells would have known for months. We spoke to at least 6 different members of staff, the amount of times we were told "we will call you back" and not receive a call is beyond a joke. They also entered our property without permission when we weren't home. Only Connells and ourselves had a key. Our post had been put on the kitchen side, things in the garden were moved. When I questioned this they denied it.Right up until the last day of completion we were still chasing them for their mistakes. They overpriced the final invoice to our solicitor by £100. It took two phone calls from us and one from our solicitor to amend this. Apparently it was a "typo" Funny how the typo didn't work in our favour! All in all a very stressful time which could have been prevented with simply being honest with us and making a few phone calls to us.I've never left a bad review before but this was so bad I felt it was needed. Hopefully our mistake going with Connells Mutley Plain will save you making that mistake. Just to repeat this was CONNELLS MUTLEY PLAIN so please don't mistake this for other connells branches.
