TrustpilotVery professional and caring
Working from the Leagrave branch, Luke and Peter worked with us to sell our home. They were both very professional and at the same time caring and respectful as they showed our home to buyers.
Peter was very reassuring when he showed us other properties, understanding our needs.
Caroline kept us up to date as our sale progressed. She was very warm on the phone and it was easy to ask her questions. We would recommend Urbal and Rural.

GoogleWe had the lovely Jess looking after our purchase! She was always so professional, helpful and knowledgeable. She always answered our questions honestly and efficiently and even when she was out of the office on a viewing she always called back and kept in touch with emails. She was always so polite and friendly as well. Thank you Jess!

Recently sold my property with Urban & Rural. David, Sam and the team did a great job. Clearly explained processes, excellent communication and good practical advice. Managed well organised viewings, very respectful of my home at all times. Secured an offer within first two weeks on the market and recently completed. Great job! Thank you!

TrustpilotDont Bother- no one contacts you back.
Contacted via email through their contact form and even contacted the local branch multiple times with someone telling me no one is available and to leave a number and they will get someone to contact me. been a couple of weeks no response. Wouldn't hold your breath waiting for these lot. By the time and IF they ever get back to you the property your looking for will probably be sold! Poor experience and definitely wouldn't recommend

TrustpilotExcellent Estate Agent
I’ve just completed my house move with Urban and Rural and their service has been impeccable. I chose them as when I purchased the property it was their listing and the buying process was excellent.
Great comms throughout and an excellent post sale experience.
Most of all they are really nice people, big thanks to Gareth and the team!!

GoogleWe’ve just purchased our first home through Urban and Rural Dunstable. They were extremely helpful, professional and very personable from the first viewing to collecting our keys! Brad was extremely helpful throughout our process and always checked in on us. We also received a lovely welcome home package when picking up our keys - which was a lovely personal touch! They made buying our first house a very pleasant experience! Would definitely recommend their services to anyone buying in Dunstable!PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

GoogleI recently purchased a property on Victoria Street…and I have to commend Elicia for her help in setting up the sale and then Amanda for her brilliant liaising with the ongoing purchase of exchange and completion. This was not an easy sale but Amanda was there for me every step of the way. Always returning my emails or calls without delay. I was and will always be very grateful for her wise advice and help with all that buying a house entails. Thank you all the team at Urban & Rural for guiding me through a very stressful time with such positivity!

GoogleBelated review after Urban & Rural Dunstable acted as my agents for the sale of my flat earlier this year. I chose U&R over other local estate agents because I was very impressed with [owner] Darren Thomson's pitch when visiting my flat for a valuation viewing: some other agents I met came across very pushy and with a hard-sell attitude, but Darren's pitch seemed more quietly competent and inspired confidence in me as a seller.
Additionally after checking out a lot of local properties on Rightmove, the quality of Urban & Rural's online marketing struck me as noticeably better than their competitors: the photos taken for the Rightmove listing were well-judged and showed the place off to its best advantage, but what stood out from the rest was that U&R put together a video tour of my flat with a great sales pitch presented by Darren and some nifty drone footage to add a bit of pizzazz to the video - other local agencies whose Rightmove listings have a video section invariably just put up a slideshow of the still photos already shown on the listing to some cheap backing music, not even bothering to narrate the slideshow: pointless! Also, as an avid Rightmove browser whilst looking for my next house, U&R include an overall total square metre summary on their floorplans which many local agencies don't, and as a buyer that puts me right off immediately when I can't clearly see how much space I'm getting for my money.
As for the sale itself, U&R listed at a price I was completely comfortable with (smack-bang in the middle of the range I was expecting) and found me a buyer within a week at full asking price on my first viewing! Sadly that buyer didn't work out as he wasn't able to pass his solicitors' Anti Money Laundering checks - not the fault of Urban & Rural - and so after he dropped out as a buyer U&R re-listed and found me another buyer at full asking price, again within a week and this time after only 3 viewings. Happily on the second go round the purchase did go through (with far fewer complications than I was expecting, given that the flat was a leasehold property with potential ground rent issues) and we completed on the deal far quicker than I had thought possible with no mess and no fuss.
Overall, a brilliant experience as a seller, and I do think that at least the Dunstable branch of U&R is leaps and bounds ahead of the local competition. If I move again in future, these guys will be at the top of my list after the completely painless sale I had with them in 2023.

GoogleAfter searching for a professional & experienced estate agents, I came across this Urban & Rural. They were all very friendly & hardworking and I was more than satisfied with their approach towards me. The one person who really stood out to me for her professionalism, excellence in communication & for the work ethic shown in regards to selling my home, was Elicia. She is hands down the best estate agent I have ever worked with over my experience of selling homes. She really was flawless. I recommend this agency 100% & recommend you to ask for Elicia to deal with your sale. Thank you everyone!
