We had an amazing experience with Cubitt and West. Chris Bignell got our house up on the market really quickly and arranged plenty of viewings at a time when the market is usually slow. He was incredibly communicative and friendly through the whole process. Our Sales Advisor, James Samuels, regularly updated our online account so that we had immediate access to feedback from viewings. There were many moving parts with our sale (we were selling two houses to fund purchase), and our Sales Progressor, Garry Wheeler, was brilliant. He chased all parties relentlessly to make sure that everything synched up and we were able to exchange on time. I couldn't be happier with my experience with Cubitt and West, Lewes, and highly recommend.

Just to say what a great team Cubitt & West in Lewes provided to support my sale. James was brilliant at booking in and facilitating viewings and was always supportive and positive throughout. He has a lovely friendly manner and is super responsive to even the silliest of questions. Garry has been of invaluable support throughout the conveyancing process and provided updates, encouragement and a positive attitude, even when it was taking longer than expected. He made the journey through conveyancing that bit easier to navigate and a lot less daunting. Tina and Chris have also shared their wisdom and excellent experience gained over many years in the business. Moving after 20 years is not for the faint hearted, but it has been made so much easier and more enjoyable thanks to this amazing team of lovely people. Thank you!

Selling/buying a house

Very helpful and will always ring you back as quickly as they can with queries etc. My experience with Cubitt and West very good. All the staff were helpful especially Summer who is dealing with the house I am buying . I know she has only been there for about a year but very professional, pleasant and a joy to work with.

Great service

Mo the manager at North End branch came to view the property we were selling.we couldn’t have asked for anyone better, he was very informative and positive in his approach.His customer service was first class and he gave us the impression he was going all out to get the property sold.We also had quite a few dealings with Julie who kept us informed along the way, if we phoned with a query she e -mailed the solicitor and once she received an answer she would ring and let us know.Everything was sorted very quickly.we would like to thank all the team who work there too.Thankyou you for making what could be a very stressful time plain sailing.I would definitely recommend you to anyone.

Very Disappointed all round

Don't often write reviews however as my decision to use this estate agents was based on so many good reviews, I felt I needed to share my experience.After having 5 valuations of my apartment, I decided to use the Southsea branch as I was very impressed with their manager Samara. She was very prepared and seemed very knowledgeable and didn't just tell me what I wanted to hear. They were the most expensive but she justified that with all the extra things she offered to sell my property such as building initial excitement with a pre-launch, with their list of 200+ looking for a similar property working with homeserve for over 60s.Once the contract was signed, communication just disappeared and there was no pre-launch. Just the day before my property went live, only a handful of people had been contacted so there was no such pre-launch. the launch for a weekend went wrong and my property only went on one of the main sites and not the others like it should. They didn't even notice. I had to advise them on the Monday that my property was missing. One of the biggest failures was on the advert was no floor plan and I wasn't generally happy with the advert at all. It was very basic and not making the most of the property at all. Despite multiple calls I couldn't get hold of the manager and she never bothered to call me back and she was the only one that could make any changes apparently. I was then told that a floor plan hadn't been done as my own photos were used but this was never explained. Weeks went by and after going into the shop directly I finally managed to get agreement to some changes made and I was told a floor plan was being done, however all the changes still didn't get put through. I basically re-wrote the ad myself and the floor plan was only put on as a picture so it still didn't show there was a floor plan and there was a sizing error on it that again I pointed out. I didn't get any interest at all or a single viewing on my property, a very smart and tidy property, and there was no communication or feedback around what was happening and what they were doing to sell and even though I tried to express my disappointment they just didn't seem to care and then just blamed it on the price. I don't dispute the market is challenging but I strongly feel the advert let it down and the lack of a floor plan was a big failure, I've also noticed that links that I see on Facebook don't work so when you click on a property that they are advertising it just takes you to a blank white page.Selling a property is stressful enough but it should be a collaborative approach with your agent and I found the total lack of communication and feeling that they were not interested a real let down.

Selling a home can be very stressful…

Selling a home can be very stressful more so when you live in another country and rely solely on the agents. Trying to decide who to use to sell my house was a long drawn out process. However during this time there was one constant and that was a lovely lady Jo Green from the Dorking branch of Cubitt & West. During the course of maybe 6 months she periodically called just to let us know she was here if needed and she never pushed any agenda. She made me feel like she was there just for me and it was really appreciated. In fact she was the main reason why I eventually decided that Cubitt & West were the agents to deal with my sale. I briefly flew to the UK and met Jo in person and within minutes I knew she was the right lady for the sale. The sale was quite a lengthy procedure with several dates given to me along the way however, Jo told me at the outset how long the sale would take and she was correct. Jo you have my respect and thanks but I would also like to mention Carole Fraser-Eighteen, Juliana Dennis and Scott Buchanan. There was nothing these guys would not do to help or just be a voice on the end of the phone. Thank you very much indeed. I would highly recommend Cubitt and West, Dorking and also the I Am Sold auction system. Thank you to Alexandra Young and Sadie Married Pitts. Great service.

It's wonderful to know that Jo's consistent support and the team's dedication left such a positive impression on you. We truly appreciate your recommendation and are delighted to have been here for you every step of the way.Best regards, Cubitt & West

Don't use this real agent as their…

Don't use this real agent as their services are very bad. They just sold the property without looking and checking of developer's professionals and ethics to customer and left the buyer to struggle faces the issues after buying the property. I bought the brand new house through Cubitt & west and their developer was not even answering the phones calls, or reply or fix the problem even they agreed. They left the house without any purchase or supplier contact details to contact if you want to do something by yourself. Spoken to real state agent head office and the feedback I have received is this is not their problem if developer is not answering so you have to go to legal but they are not taking any responsibility as a selling agent to select the professional developer or take any action. Buyer is buying the property with their hard-earned money and paying the EMI but this real agent and their unprofessional developer are just a real problem so never recommend to use again.

Dear RajeevThank you for your feedback and we are sorry to learn that you have experienced issues with the appliances at a new build property that you purchased through us in 2022.We have contacted the developer on your behalf who informed us that the paperwork relating to the appliances would have been left in the property at the time of completion, enabling you to activate the relevant warranties. We also understand that you have been in contact with the developer directly to discuss your concerns. We are sorry if you are unhappy with their response and can only recommend that you formalise any outstanding issues that you have, so that they can investigate further. Thank you again for taking the time to leave us a review and we are sorry that you have experienced issues so long after your purchase.Kind regardsCubitt & West

I had a great experience of interacting with Summer.In my first conversation, Summer was patient enough to understand my requirements and accordingly suggested property listings.Summer was by my side in every step of the way from understanding the requirements, suggesting the properties, arranging the viewings and accompanying me to the viewings. Summer also kept me well informed.Summer stays patient during the viewings allowing enough time to inspect the property and also answers all the queries.I found Summer to be very helpful, enthusiastic and committed to her work.Also a big thank you to Mr. Otto Pagel for giving me invaluable insights. Also Jayde Bose and Richard were very helpful.I hope the buying process goes well & fast.

Excellent Customer Service

From the moment I contacted C&W, I have been very impressed with the level of service. Thomas was extremely polite and patient. He was very attentive and informative which resulted in me finding the perfect property within a very short timeframe. The important things to me are transparency and efficiency. He excelled on both counts as well as having the ability to make me feel heard and, more importantly, valued.I am pleased to say that this feedback extends to Scott, Katherine and everyone I spoke to at C&W. I am forever grateful to you all. So much so, I have recommended C&W to friends.

Julie Bramble was excellent, kept us informed all the way through, called when necessary but also emailed updates when she had things to report. No delays on getting back to me, even let me know when away from office. C&W were not even our estate agents, we were buying the property from their client, but we had more contact with them than our own estate agents. We have recommended them twice so far.

Thank you Crowborough Team

The team at Crowborough were really great to deal with. We were looking to move to a completely new area and they were helpful with local knowledge and recommendations. Marie was a great help on the phone when arranging viewings and we met Caroline and Charlotte on a few viewings and they were very welcoming and allowed us time to view the properties at our own pace.When we were ready to put in an offer John was great and helped us to secure our dream home, he was always available to answer questions or help with concerns. We were kept updated by phone, email or text which helped to keep the process moving.

My experience with Julie Bramble from…

My experience with Julie Bramble from Cubitt & West Southsea Estate Agents has been outstanding. From the day my offer on the property was accepted, I received what can only be described as excellent customer service. The contract exchange process became quite strenuous due to a dispute between the seller's and buyer's solicitors, which significantly prolonged and complicated matters. However, Julie Bramble demonstrated her professionalism by diligently following up with all involved parties, showcasing her excellent communication skills. She consistently responded to inquiries promptly and took responsibility right through to the end of the process. Her dedication provided my wife and me with reassurance and optimism. Kudos to Julie for her exceptional service. We are truly grateful. Thank you.

Julie is a Gem!

I cannot recommend Cubitt and West highly enough! They recently helped us navigate an incredibly complex and challenging sales process due to the recent legislation on cladding for flats causing alot of issues. From start to finish, their professionalism, expertise, and dedication were truly exceptional.Despite the difficulties posed by the new regulations, Cubitt and West remained proactive, communicative, and supportive throughout the entire process. They went above and beyond to ensure everything was handled efficiently and effectively, keeping us informed every step of the way. Their knowledge of the latest legislation and their ability to manage the various stakeholders involved was impressive and gave us great peace of mind.Thanks to their hard work and perseverance, we successfully completed the sale, and we couldn't be more grateful. If you're looking for an estate agent who will go the extra mile and provide top-notch service, look no further than Cubit and West. They truly are the best in the business!Harry, Samara, Tracey, Jacki & Julie thank you all for your efforts, we cannot fault you! I would finally like to give a special thank you to Julie who was exemplary in her professionalism and communication!

I had no problem with Cubitt and West Caterham at all, I got on really well with Lucy from the beginning, you could tell she liked the house which to me meant that would shine through when she spoke to prospective buyers. They all kept in touch and the house sold very quickly, then Sophie kept us updated regularly on the progress of the sale. If I had any concerns or questions there was always someone on hand to talk me through things and reassure me if I needed it. The house looked great online and we were done from start to finish in 2.5 months. If we ever move again I would not hesitate to use Lucy and her team again.

Promised the world before going on the market. That’s where the sloppy work started, given the brochure to sign off. Had to be return 3 times for amendments due to duplicate wording, missing pictures etc., basic work for anyone, but no care or attention to detail.Once the house was on the market and live on the website. Some pictures where over saturated making the house look a dirty, missing pictures and more pictures of the garden than the house.Asked them to amend this, met with a sharp and blunt response over the phone…speak to the manager.They amended this, placed the original pictures online, next to the over saturated pictures. Simple, uncomplicated work for anyone, but seems no one can be bothered to check details and pictures. All in all, a very bad experience of Cubitt and West, talks the talk but does not walk the walk.Would I recommend Cubit and West? No not at all, wasted 8 weeks of my time and money.

Excellent experience with the Reigate branch for the sale of our property. Everyone we dealt with throughout was friendly and helpful, and Katarina in particular was a joy to work with from start to finish! She's super proactive and passionate, and really cares about doing the best she can for her clients. She kept us updated regularly throughout the process and was open and honest regarding the feedback on the viewings. We needed to find a buyer quickly so we didn't miss out on the house we wanted to buy and she made it happen! (Huge thanks Katarina!)

First time buyer/Leashold property

Though I didn’t use John O’Neill at the Cubitt & West branch, Woodingdean to buy or sell a property, he recommended their in-house solicitors and mortgage services. As a first time buyer, his recommendation and guidance was invaluable. Mortgage Matters Direct were totally amazing in securing me a mortgage, a fast and efficient service with great communication throughout. I would highly recommend them. JS Law, the conveyancers recommend by Cubitt and West were also great, Lauryn Parker-Beaton was very patient in taking me through the complexities of buying a leasehold apartment. Though it took a while, she did a good job in getting the property to completion. John’s knowledge and experience of the buying process was also invaluable, as a first-time buyer this was daunting and stressful, he simplified the whole process for me and held my hand the whole way through. I would highly recommend him and his team of experts, thank you John, I couldn’t have done this without you!
