TrustpilotLack of Transparency and a Very Stressful Buying Experience
My experience during this property transaction was unfortunately far more stressful and difficult than it should have been and ultimately the seller withdrew from the sale after 6 months of trying to close.
In hindsight, I believe it was a mistake to proceed with a property connected to one of the directors of Balgores. To be fair, the potential conflict of interest was disclosed early on, however as the transaction progressed, many of the decisions and communication felt significantly more favourable towards the seller than balanced between both parties.
One of the biggest issues was around completion timelines. We were actively working towards a much earlier completion date, initially targeting October/November, partly because we wanted our children settled into their new schools as early as possible in the academic year. However, towards the end of October, we were suddenly informed that the sellers now wanted completion pushed back to the end of January, which caused major disruption and stress across the entire chain.
At the time, Balgores attempted to reassure us that this was normal and acceptable within property transactions. However, during the later appeal process, the seller informed that the January completion requirement had allegedly been known to Balgores from the very beginning (June), but this information was only communicated to us at the end of October. Had we known this upfront, we would have approached the purchase very differently.
As a buyer, it became extremely frustrating trying to manage mortgage timelines, expiry risks, chain pressures, ongoing legal costs, and constant uncertainty while also chasing updates and clarity.
Although some individuals involved were polite and responsive at times, the overall process became emotionally draining and significantly more complicated than it needed to be. I was left feeling that key concerns, timelines, and risks were not handled with the level of transparency and balance buyers would reasonably expect.
My advice to anyone entering a property transaction would be:
* Get everything confirmed in writing.
* Ask detailed questions as early as possible.
* Independently verify important information rather than relying on assumptions. Again, in writing.
* Stay very closely involved throughout the process.
* Carefully review any Gazeal agreement before signing, as in my experience it appears heavily weighted towards the seller side. (I have written a separate review regarding Gazeal specifically.)
Buying and selling property is already stressful enough, and unfortunately this experience added considerably to that stress.
I have since submitted a formal complaint to better understand whether there was any wrongdoing or failure in how the transaction was handled by Balgores. I will wait to see the response and will update this review accordingly based on the outcome and feedback received.

TrustpilotFantastic experience with Balgores an exceptional firm of estate agents who go the extra half mile.d
We had remained in our fabulous property for 29 years, but we were now starting a new chapter of our lives. Balgores were absolutely magnificent, from Connor who helped us sell our property to the backroom staff. We would especially like to pick out Donna who every step of the way, was absolutely fantastic and guided us through the maze of selling up to exchange of contracts and completion date, she was a star. We would also like to thank Teddy for scanning all our key documents and he sent them onto us, which saved us a lot of time. All in all, we can only say that the whole Balgores team were exceptional, so a big thank you to everyone.

TrustpilotPeter was great!
I was recommended to use Peter as my Mortgage Advisor and would recommend on to other! Peter was nothing but helpful, informative & on the ball. There was never a question he didn’t have an answer for and simply made me feel at ease throughout my whole buying process. I’m sure he advised me on more than what his job description holds but nothing was a problem for him.
Couldn’t have asked for anything more!!

TrustpilotExcellent service from Balgores…
Excellent service from Balgores Hornchurch Branch. We have had excellent service from start to (nearly finish) we have exchanged and completion is due soon. Everyone we dealt with were professional, easy to get hold of, and great to deal with. Billy (Manager) Georgia, Connor and Donna were amazing. We would not have got this sale over the line without the extra service they give, the whole team deserve the praise, Donna (sales progressor) has been a fantastic go between for us, the solicitors and the buyer. This sale would not have happened without this team. I highly recommend Balgores, do yourself a favour and use them, you will not regret it!
