We have a dram to buy a house, but we are very doubtful that whether we get the mortgage, but our Mortgage advisor Jason Shrubb is very helpful and helped us for each and everything. We are expressing our sincere gratitude to all staff in Foxandsons, because eventhough we are late for viewing, they waited for us , India Johnson and Gorgia Allerston, Callum Legate and Eden. If by mistake I forgot any names, We are giving our thanks to each and every one. Thank you to all

I have kept an excellent record as a tenant in my previous homes. My experience with Lauren and Binal at the Fox & Sons London Road Southampton was a very terrible one as both representatives kept lieing at every point. At some point I stopped taking verbal communication from them except through emails just to have a proof. They were unprofessional and dodgy in picking calls,so I started to call the sales unit to help put my call through to the lettings unit. Please avoid letting agents of the sort. To before warned is to before harmed.very unprofessional staff, very poor communication.

We've just sold our house using Fox & Sons Peacehaven. Throughout the whole process the team have been outstanding. Callum, Sean & India have been excellent in their communication, high calibre of viewers in a position to move forward. When Sean was handling the viewings he was engaged, friendly, informative and sought to answer all questions. Having had two agents market my property, Fox & Sons stood head and shoulders above the other Estate Agents and I highly recommend them.

Through the whole process of selling my flat through Fox & Sons - from the initial visit by Callum to accepting an offer - I have consistently been impressed by their professionalism, communication and friendliness. They provided quick feedback after viewings and always answered my calls promptly. I highly recommend Fox & Sons to manage your property sale, with particular thanks to Callum, India and Georgia.

Fox & Sons Peacehaven - A Waste of My Time and an Underhanded Practice I was told about an open day for a bungalow on Saturday, August 16th. I specifically organized my week to attend, only to be called on Friday, August 15th, and told it had already been sold. This is a completely underhanded way of doing business. Advertising a public open day while secretly selling the property to other clients beforehand is a major red flag. It shows a complete lack of respect for my time and suggests the open day was never a real opportunity for potential buyers. Due to this experience, I have no trust in their business practices and will not be buying or selling property with them in the future. Update Thank you for responding, Maggie, but your message doesn’t address the core issue. The problem is not simply “inconvenience”, it’s that Fox & Sons advertised an open day for a property that was already being sold to someone else. That is misleading and wastes people’s time. If this “was not your intention,” then your processes need urgent review to ensure properties are not promoted as available when they are already sold or under offer. Until such changes are visible, I cannot have confidence in your business practices.

5 stars for Jason Shrubbs! We have recently had our mortgage offer accepted and are in the process of purchasing our first home, from the get go, Jason has been amazing and has been a huge help throughout this process, his communication and helpfulness has been outstanding. He has kept us up to date throughout and always answers our silly questions, a credit to the branch.

Taunton Branch, excellent service

I recently visited Fox & Sons in Taunton to purchase a Victorian terraced house in the town. From start to finish Millie and Peter and his team were very professional and super friendly. The sale went through in only a few months, even though I had to renegotiate a new offer after having a survey done.

We had an excellent experience with the team and, most especially Callum Legate. From start to finish, the team was professional, responsive, and incredibly helpful. They guided us through every step of the process, addressing any questions promptly and ensuring everything went smoothly. Callum went over and beyond to make sure everything was sorted in good time, and we were able to close before the new stamp duty came. He coordinated smoothly with everyone (seller, myself, and conveyancers) to ensure seamless communication and avoid delays. As a first-time buyer, this was an incredible experience!!

Callum and his team have been excellent throughout our property sale. From start to finish being open and honest, vigilant and within a week of coming to them we had 3 offers on the table. They achieved more in a week than a previous agency did in 3 months. Massive thank you to Callum, Tiger and India who we had most of our conference with. Cannot recommend them enough. Making the process of selling and buying houses a lot more tolerable. Thank you 🙏🏻

David Johnston at Fox & Sons Eastbourne has been absolutely outstanding. He’s extremely friendly, professional, and always punctual for every viewing. He takes the time to clearly explain everything and gives accurate, honest details about each property, often providing even better insight than what you see online. His communication is excellent, he’s patient with questions, and genuinely cares about helping you find the right home. Truly a great agent and a pleasure to deal with highly recommended!

I had a very positive experience with the staff at the Fox & Sons Bitterne branch, particularly Tom and Owen, who provided excellent customer service throughout my experience. The meeting with the mortgage adviser, arranged by Owen, was especially helpful.

Callum and India were both superb. Having already had a sale fall through before approaching Callum, I was desperate to move as quickly and efficiently as possible to enable me and my partner to buy our first home and move nearer to family before the arrival of our baby. This was a big ask but Callum, India and the team found us a genuine buyer quickly and supported us throughout the process. We have now moved and couldn’t be happier. Thank you so much for everything!

After contacting Fox and Sons in Peacehaven regarding a property for sale I spoke to Callum the manager and then visited the property with him. I received an excellent, helpful and informed overview of the property and was impressed by Callum's personable approach. His customer service and willingness to answer all my questions was very reassuring and I would recommend a visit to anyone looking to buy a property in Peacehaven.

I would like to thank Callum and his team at Fox & Sons (Peacehaven branch) for their tremendous help in selling my house. We had bookings for viewing the very next day and the house was sold within a week in the market at the price I expected. We have exchanged our contracts and are waiting for the completion now. All the team members I dealt with were professional, informed, and helpful. Would certainly recommend them.

I live in Newhaven but chose Fox and Sons Peacehaven to be my selling agent based on their reach and great reputation. Good decision! There was a steady stream of viewings from day one, it didn’t take long for them to find me a suitable buyer and we have just exchanged contracts! I can’t speak too highly of the team. Callum, India and Millie were professional, friendly and informative at all times. A special mention here for India who was very supportive and gave regular updates throughout the process. Communication is key so I really appreciated that. Thank you!

Harassing me with phone calls when iv asked them to stop more than once

I asked fox and sons to come a do a valuation of my late father’s property. I have then been phoned 20times since asking if they can put the property on the market for me. I asked them politely to not phone me any more as it’s on the market with a different estate agent and to take my details of the system. They said they would I have since then received 5 other phone calls from them and each time been told they will take my of the the system. I have had three calls since and each time I have asked not to be phoned and they keep phoning me. It’s getting to the point of harassment now. I would stay clear. They clearly don’t listen to peoples wishes and feel it’s ok to continue to phone someone when they have been asked not to. If only they put the same amount of effort into selling a property ( they had my old house on the market two years and had about three people for viewings.

We have recently had an offer on a property accepted through Fox & Sons Peacehaven. We have met with both Emma and India in visits to the property and both have been professional and welcoming.
