TrustpilotJasmin made the whole letting process…
Jasmin made the whole letting process incredibly smooth and stress-free. She handled all the paperwork quickly and efficiently, keeping everything straightforward and easy to understand. Her friendly and helpful approach really stood out, and she was always available to answer any questions. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking to let a property with confidence.

TrustpilotTheir lettings team is useless and expensive
I can’t speak to the Freeman Forman sales team but my experience with their lettings team in Heathfield was terrible. I hired them to manage a property several hours away while my late husband was ill and I couldn’t manage or visit the property myself. They charged me an exorbitant amount for this service each month and I have nothing to show for it but a trashed house in need of thousands of pounds of repairs. They let to terrible tenants who ruined the house and garden, but even worse, Freeman Forman neglected to do an end of tenancy inventory so I couldn’t keep the tenant deposit to offset the cost of repairs. One of their letting agents even admitted to me that they dropped the ball. But of course Freeman Forman did nothing to make things right for me or take any financial responsibility for their mistakes and poor service. They are either incompetent or sleazy or both. Avoid Freeman Forman lettings, it’s an expensive rip off!

TrustpilotFantastic Tonbridge Team!
The team at the Freeman Forman office in Tonbridge, Kent sold my flat. A massive thank you in particular to Megan for being brilliant throughout this process. It was really tricky with the property management company AB Canham, but throughout all this Megan was unwaveringly professional, patient, positive and reassuring and she kept the buyer engaged and on-side, preventing the chain from collapsing. Thank you!

TrustpilotOur first rental
My partner and I recently viewed a rental property in Hampden Park, Eastbourne. Stephen was showing us the property and he is the BEST. I met with him a few days prior and he took all my details and immediately found us a property that fit our requirements. He answered all our questions, was very thorough, and let us have as much time as we needed inside the property. As soon as we got home, he took the time to e-mail us with a follow up. 10/10 service from Stephen and if you’re looking to rent, I 100% recommend going in and having a chat with Stephen at the Freeman Foreman office on Terminus Road. Thank you so much!

TrustpilotHector and his team at Tunbridge Wells
Huge thank you to Hector and his team in Tunbridge Wells for helping us sell our property. Always available to help and answer questions and very professional. Wouldn't hesitate to use them again (although hoping not to move for a long time!!)

TrustpilotFreeman Forman Lettings in Eastbourne…
Freeman Forman Lettings in Eastbourne were happy to take the 10% management fees for 20 years when we let our property out through them, but when our tenant decided not to pay the rent anymore they were suddenly very unhelpful, they knew this was crippling us as the interest on the mortgage had shot up and with no rent coming in we were struggling.

We’ve had the absolute pleasure of working with Janine at UCKFIELD Freeman Foreman, who looks after our rental properties. Janine is simply outstanding, her organisation, professionalism, and genuine care for her clients are second to none. She’s always incredibly friendly and approachable, making every interaction a positive one.

TrustpilotThe most helpful estage agents!
Freeman Forman in Uckfield helped me move into my new apartment. Thank you to Anna, Jack & Janice for showing me moving house doesnt have to be stressful! I went from an aweful experience from one of their competitors to dealing with the a stress free team that always kept to their word. From the beginning of collecting my keys to the handing of them over they helped with every situation, always got back in a timely manner, and are the kindest people to deal with for moving house. The landlord was the sweetest lady, leaving me cleaning products and extra bits ready for my tenancy. They were also very understanding when I advised I would have to end my contract due to the cost of living crisis. I will definately be returning for help with hopping on the mortgage ladder. Highly recommend these guys.

TrustpilotHeathfield branch
What ever you do - do not got to Rebecca the mortgage advisor!! We went to her last year to renew our mortgage. She kept pushing for us to pay £600 for this scheme where we don’t pay any fees for future mortgages. We paid. A week later she’s telling us she can’t get us a mortgage! She would ignore all our calls and emails. So we decided to go independently and got our mortgage straight away! We continued to contact her for our £600 back as we received NO SERVICE from her to which she kept ignoring us! My partner has been going backwards and forwards with someone her office for around a year now ,who also agreed this was wrong, has now told us they’re not giving us our money back! Might I add we are two grieving parents that had not long lost our child at that time and she knew and met them the last time we’d met her. Praying on the vulnerable and conning them out of their hard earned money! Absolutely disgusting you should be ashamed!

The most awful experience with Freeman Foreman. I had to spend thousands of pounds to renovate my property because of bad tenants and very poor management! I went through the courts to evict the tenants and ended with thousands of arrears that were not managed since 2020.

TrustpilotUnimpressive
Completely underwhelmed by the performance of Freeman Forman Tunbridge Wells in marketing our apartment for sale. In almost five months, they secured just three viewings. Very little in the way of feedback apart from urging us to drop the price (despite us having marketed at the price they suggested.)

Basically the agent in the branch in Tonbridge just lies to us all the time. We bought a flat from them, agreed the price with the seller and started the buying process then all of a sudden another offer is made through another . Then we don't hear any more and for the last week they don't answer my messages or call back. We don't know if we have the flat or not, presumably not but they haven't told us anything. They are an awful company so beware. I am disgusted with their attitude.

TrustpilotMis-Sold on the property.
Mis-Sold on the property. We were told the property was a freehold property however once our solicitors reviewed the contacts we found out the property didn’t come with title or deeds to the land. In other words we’d be buying some very expensive bricks with no way of reselling the property. We pulled the offer and logged a complaint only to be told it was not Freeman Foreman’s responsibility to know if the property came with title and deeds and that they were actually free to advertise the property as they wished.
5/5
TrustpilotBrilliant from start to finish
Brilliant from start to finish! Always excellent communication, and we felt they were representing us as the sellers. All staff were helpful , but Fiona, Hector and Rosie deserve a special mention.

Hector went over and above inorder to help me both sell and purchase a property. Very professional. I would have no hesitation in recommending Hector and Freeman Forman to any future purchasers/sellers.

Condescending, when viewing a property the viewing starts with "the slots are 15 minutes" felt like we were looked upon like we were wasting their time

TrustpilotBrilliant Tonbridge branch
Freeman Forman Tonbridge were exceptionally good at progressing the sale of our house. The buyer's solicitor was very unprofessional and Freeman Forman managed them brilliantly. They communicated well and were patient and reassuring throughout a really stressful time! We were really pleased with the service, and would definitely recommend them.

Complete disregard for people trying to buy a home. Never reply to emails even when I contacted another branch to avoid talking to a specific sales agent as we was not getting any response from “Jena” I asked to speak to a new agent as the lack of response from them resulted us in losing the home we wanted I couldn’t be more disappointed in this company. My mortgage broker never got reply’s totally unprofessional was his words. Good luck to anyone who has to deal with them.

TrustpilotMisrepresentation of Fact
Freeman forman listed my late Mother's property upon their website and displayed it in their window as "Sold". In fact the sale had nothing to do with them, it was successfully negotiated by another local agent. All requests to remove this were ignored despite phone calls, an email and a visit to their office. This was clearly a misrepresentation by Freeman Forman.

TrustpilotAbsolutely Shocking never again
Absolutely Shocking. Me and one of my friends rented a house through them a year ago! We used the uckfield branch and I can honestly say they were awful. After we both left the house it had taken them 3 months to give us our deposit back. They didn’t answer our phone calls or emails until we told them we had a letter to take them to court. Funnily enough we then got our money! I must say Janine Spofforth for a lettings manager you are awful at your job. We also felt we were taken advantage of as we are young and it was our first house. I will never use them again. Lesson learnt
