GoogleRight from the first contact Venture were responsive and very professional. They listened to what we felt the home should be sold for and adjusted the photographs to bring a better overall perspective of the property. They kept frequent contact during the time the home was on the market and so much more when the sale was progressing. Despite the pundits saying house prices have gone up we did not find that to be the case and after full discussion with Venture we decided to reduce the price to make a sale. Thank you Kim, Carl and Helen.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism, Value

GoogleOver all the process of selling my property was good. To improve things and provide a better service, it would be helpful if solicitors would respond promptly to there enquiries. I believe this would speed up the process entirely and then all parties would benefit from a more effective service

GoogleI have just moved to Darlington using another estate agent however they were basically non-existent during the process and contacted me only once after my house sold. Venture properties were the agent for the house I was buying and they were so incredibly helpful and efficient - ringing me every week with updates and chasing people in the chain. They even brought a little gift round when I moved into my new house which was a lovely touch considering they werenβt even my estate agents. I will 100% be using Venture if I move again in future, they are really on the ball throughout the whole process and so helpful

GoogleNever again. This is the first and last time I work with them.
Requests are ignored. Unapologetic. All this for a Β£6000 fee on an auction sale.
Even off the market, I can not sell my home for a month because of their draconian conditions. So that's one month wasted, and a second where the house is doing nothing but standing un-marketed. What world are they living in!? This should be illeagal.
Venture should find better solicitors and auction partners. And if nobody protests against this behavior nothing will change!
7th Nov UPDATE- Seems like Pattinsons (their auction referral partner) cancelled the auction without my consent or knowledge. I only got to know after I asked why no communication for two weeks. It's unbelievable. I never thought a local high st agent could be so casual. They managed to arrange two viewings in a month. Hardly the promise of a bidding war. Playing the blame game on me hasn't gone unnoticed either. A pack of lies was fed to me from the start.
They also tie you into a six month period from withdrawal of advertising, liability of fee's should you sell with another agent. Until this practice ends I won't be doing any business with them

GoogleWe were tenants at one of their managed properties and they are absolutely a cut above the other estate agents. You can tell they take prise in the properties that they let. They were extremely helpful and attentive throughout the viewing and application process despite them having to change the way they work due to the pandemic. When there were problems with the plumbing they sent someone to fix it straight away. When we were moving out, I also loved the way they gave us flexibility and plenty of notice when they were booking people to view the flat - something which not all estate agents or landlords care about.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

GoogleStaff are really friendly and always happy to help, whenever we have had an issue at home that we can't repair our self (which isn't that often) Venture have had it dealt with in a fast and timely manner, someone straight out and problem fixed. If we do ever move to rent again or hopefully buy we will definitely be using Venture, whos service is second to none!

GoogleVenture were fantastic from start to finish and helped us secure a good price for our property. The team went above and beyond to get both our sale and purchase through. I couldn't have asked for better service and advice. We almost lost our buyer and then our completion date and they helped us get everything back on track. I would like to thank both Grace and Liam for all their hard work that helped us get our new home.

GoogleVenture provided a tenant find only service for me, they valued the rental potential, advertised the property and provided me with a tenant within two weeks. They then proceeded to efficiently install the tenant into the property, looking after the legislation, utilities and deposit requirements. Result no stress or hassle for either party. Great service Thanks Venture.
