This is the third time that we have used Hunters of Easingwold to sell our properties over the past 20 years. Wouldn`t dream of using anyone else. They offer an exemplary service, always calm, efficient, courteous, willing to help, console and smooth ruffled feathers. Selling your home isn`t an easy process but the Team at Hunters of Easingwold certainly help to make it as stress free as possible I would recommend them to anyone without reserve.

I had an exceptional experience working…

I had an exceptional experience working with Julie Decraene throughout my house purchase. From start to finish before passing onto the next agent for the further process of buying my house, her service was nothing short of outstanding. She made what can often be a stressful and complicated process feel smooth, straightforward, and incredibly efficient.

Lydia is new to the team and handled the letting or our property very professionally. She kept us well informed with all the updates and re let it within a week of it becoming available. I have dealt with Georgina before and again she always returns our calls promptly and is very professional and helpful in her approach. Thank you to you both for finding what looks like an excellent tenant this time!

Ben in the Easingwold office was absolutely fantastic. As a first time buyer it's safe to say I was nervous going into my first property purchase. Nothing was too much trouble for Ben- he was very responsive and always got back to me with clear and up to date information. Very grateful to Ben & the team at Hunters for helping me get into my first home! Could not recommend these guys highly enough!

Total scammers!

Total scammers!! Do NOT recommend at all!! I rented with with them for 4 years, was okay at first then it gotten difficult to get things properly fixed, they left us without a fridge and freezer for over a year so I had to buy my own! They send out the same repair men that told me over and over again they could t properly fix various things as it needed updating and my landlord was refusing to update (handyman’s words not mine). We had a mice infestation that I had made them aware of but nothing was done and they ended up coming into the house eating through all my kids Easter eggs and our snacks and my sons make a wish documents amongst other important documents!! I had to pay for the infestation to be sorted, I have paperwork that states the things that needed doing to stop them and they didn’t do half of it!! There was insufficient loft insulation, single glazed windows and no wall insulation so it was beyond freezing unless I had the heating on constantly. They didn’t carpet or decorate in god knows how long!! I paid £2800 deposit to stay in this house!! They then said as I was pregnant there would be too many people living in the property so I said okay can I please have a rent statement to get onto the council and was told by corena she would email this to me but this went on for about 6 months and she then sends me an eviction notice instead so I said okay can I have the rent statement she still refused! A year later I get the rent statement.. then another eviction notice. Their reason was my landlords granddaughter had cancer and needed to sell up to pay for treatment (she knew one of my sons was a cancer survivor and she also knew my youngest son is fighting a brain tumour!) she used my personal circumstances as a tool against me. I tried so hard to move out quickly but eventually got a property with the council.She caused 2 years of horrifying mental breakdowns, I have adhd and so you can imagine the impact it had! She never done and entrance or exit inventory with me, she next done entrance or exit key handover so the crook covered her bases.!! This wasn’t her first rodeo!!I have been informed by neighbours of repairs etc carried out since I left the property and also about the new tennants living there so they never sold the property.Social services are trying to help get my deposit back, the so called deposit guarantee scheme said there was nothing they could do as it was never with them!! So I had a look on company’s house at them… I suggest if your considering renting from hunters you look on companies house at them too!! They are a bunch of scammers and they keep getting away with it!!They have now left us with absolutely nothing! I’m a single mum having to furnish and carpet a house with next to no money struggling to decide if my kids need a bed or food, carpets or gas, curtains or electric!! I was told a survey of dilapidation was being done and that turned out to not be true!! I have asked numerous times about my deposit and she doesn’t reply to nothing! She ignores everything. She has stolen £2800 from me and my children. I have 2 autistic children and 1 is a cancer survivor and 1 has a brain tumour I have a lot of worries already with them without this worry about loosing so much money that was needed to benefit my children. British Gas had to swap the meter as per the request from the ombudsmen and corena Harris told me I’d better put them back I have this and more in messages!! I said I can’t as that is breaking the law and she wasn’t happy at all.. the old meters didn’t work!! I can only hope people do not make the same mistake as myself and put their trust in these despicable people!! Have a look on companies house before considering renting from them!!£2800 is a lot of money for a single mum with 6 children and 3 of which are very poorly and one is fighting a brain tumour you ask yourself what kind of person does that!!

My experience with Hunters was very good,from the first phone call to arrange the viewing on the house to the day i received the keys & moved in i dealt with the same person called Lucy Horsman,Lucy was very professional & helpful & dealt excellently with any issues that came along (as they do when your in a chain) would recommend Hunters estate agents if your looking to sell or buy a house.

Hunters Baldock as letting agents…

Hunters Baldock were the letting agents for a recent rental. I found them rude and difficult to the point of enjoying the power they had over me as a nervous tenant in an expensive and competitive market. They piled on the reasons why I might not get my deposit back (which they still have not returned) were useless with actual sums and dates and generally unpleasant.

Hunters Of Easingwold were excellent.Listened to our requests and sold our property swiftly for full asking price. Couldn’t have asked for a more friendly but professional service. Ben & Andy were brilliant & can’t recommend them enough.

I phoned up a interest in a property and got a private mobile number saying she worked for hunters, the next 2 days I bombarded with calls and 2 booked appointments. I politely asked to be left alone then a call literally 20 mins later and again the next day to see if I was attending a meeting with her and her husband on a Sunday. What is going on here if anyone can shed any light on this , I was so stressed out I blocked her. I wouldn't go to these if they were last estate agents left. Garbage

I would strongly advise others to think twice before renting through this estate agent. When we signed our tenancy agreement, the property was advertised and agreed with included parking, which was a key factor in our decision to rent the flat.

We finally have our first family home after years of renting... amazing! Andy was very supportive in understanding our needs and budget and helped us to find a property that ticked so many boxes. Great at updating us at the negotiating stages and responded to any further information requests or visits to the property ASAP. Many thanks again AndyPositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

Do not use for rentals

Do not use for rentals. There is a cost of living crisis of which this company is taking advantage of it with overvalued properties and fees. I paid a holding fee which equates to one weeks rent whilst going through necessary checks. I was truthful that I had a little adverse credit from over 5 years ago but I had an amazing reference from my current landlord of 10 years (of which they knew him as he uses them for some of his properties) plus a steady job. It was taking this agent over a week to get back to me about anything, never returned calls and I was growing concerned. Unbeknown to me, if you also don’t earn three times the rent of the property, you will also fail their checks as they will deem you unable to afford payments. I tried arguing that I could afford it because even after rent, I still had over £1k left and it’s a little unfair to set such judgments on people. They even agreed that they knew I could afford it but it wasn’t up to them but down to their policies etc. I couldn’t get a guarantor which prompted them to say didn’t I have a partner who could move in to bump up the financial figures or guarantor me. Therefore I ended up losing my ‘holding fee’ which is a considerate sum and if this company does this to 10 people a week, they are making a packet for nothing. What gives them The right to put people over a barrel like this?!!! It’s extortion!!! Especially with the current climate and people needing homes and struggling with increasing prices of food, gas and electric. A house is a necessity, people need to live and be safe but this agent seems to be very discriminatory and setting unrealistic benchmarks.

I would never ever used this Company again. They failed to tell my tennent I was selling up, because of mortgage increases, I even even emailed them. Heard nothing so I assumed they had told the tennent. Two months later when I thought I'd have my property back, they told me they hadn't told the tennent. Also the tennent flooded my bathroom and cost me £2000 to fix!

With her 20 years experience in marketing properties, I found her advice and professionalism second to none.Very friendly, fully informed and as passionate as I am about my property.Her examples of similar properties was really helpful.

Hunters Estate - Demi May

Demi May was my first point of contact who communicated effectively and efficiently between me, the buyer, and the seller. Demi was amiable, astute listener and professional in the way she facilitated the next steps of the purchasing process. Her effective communication skills enabled me to secure multiple viewings with ease. I would strongly recommend Demi May to any company who is looking to appoint someone reliable, kind and proactive.

We were recently shown around a property by Naomi from Hunters. The service was second to none. Naomi was very friendly, knowledgeable and professional and could offer great insight into the property and the surrounding area. It was easy to arrange a convenient viewing time and the communication throughout has been great. The service received by Naomi and Hunters has been of an exceptional standard. Thank you so much.

The Amazing Sandra

I had a viewing in windmill road gillingham on saturday I was early for my appointment and greeted by sandra. I have had lots of viewings with other estate agents recently but sandra was def the best. Her professionalism was amazing she was very honest which is rare for most estate agents :) and she knew everything about each room before we stepped in it. Sandra's knowledge of the area was great regarding parking near by facilities. Clearly she did her research before the viewing. I feel she is a real credit to the company and everybody should learn from her how to conduct a viewing in a professional way. She should be the face of customer experience for the whole industry not just hunters. I understand this is a sales environment and results won't always reflect how good or valuable a person is but hunters def should invest in this one for long term as the old saying goes people buy from people. Thank you so much Sandra :)

My brother and I contacted Hunters recently in relation to a 6 bedroom detached house with extensive parking & gardens in Buntingford Hertfordshire. We arranged an appointment with their employee Laura. My brother and I were so impressed by Laura from our first meeting in relation to her knowledge of lettings. She proved herself to be highly efficient and courteous during the following week and arranged all the certification, photos & floor plans for the letting with the individual contractors and in addition to providing us with beautiful Client brochures posted it on Rightmove within a very short time scale. I would highly recommend Laura and Hunters.
