Scarlett has been very helpful with viewing properties and going the extra mile to show us other properties not originally scheduled and in a tight time frame due to relocating, that we have now made an offer on. Very attentive and informative would definitely recommend using this company. Thanks Scarlett

I can’t thank Ben Light enough for all the help and support during my mortgage process. From start to finish, they made everything clear, stress-free, and straightforward, always quick to respond and incredibly patient with my many questions. They went above and beyond to find the best deal for me, explained every option in detail, and made sure I understood exactly what was happening at each stage. Even when things got complicated, they stayed calm, professional, and genuinely cared about helping me get the right result. I’d highly recommend Ben Light to anyone looking for a reliable, knowledgeable, and approachable mortgage broker. Their expertise and dedication made a huge difference, thank you again for making the whole process so much easier!

The Ultimate Do-It-Yourself Estate Agency Experience

(Would give zero stars if I could, but one star for actually answering the phone that one time). If you are looking for an estate agent that embodies the mystery and suspense of an escape room, look no further than Fox & Sons Weymouth. Selling a house is stressful, but Fox & Sons managed to elevate it to a psychological thriller where the main theme is "Ghosting." Here is a quick breakdown of the premium service I received while selling my property: The Secret Agents: I assume they were marketing my property, but it must have been via MI6-level classified channels because they rarely communicated a single detail to me. The Answering Machine Black Hole: Calling their office is a masterclass in futility. You will mostly encounter their answering machine. If you leave a message and call back hours later, don't worry, the staff will have absolutely no record or memory of your existence. If this is how they treat the person paying them, I can only imagine a prospective buyer would need to hire a private investigator just to get a viewing. Time Dilates in Weymouth: When Fox & Sons say they will call you back "shortly," please note that in their dictionary, "shortly" translates to 24 to 48 hours. More often than not, I had to call them back to remind them we were technically in a business relationship. The Legendary "Single Showing": To be fair, they did actually turn up to show a buyer around exactly once. It was a spectacular disaster. The agent knew absolutely nothing about the house, and apparently even less about the local area. It was less of a guided tour and more of a collaborative fact-finding mission. I had to step in and conduct the viewing myself to save us all from terminal awkwardness. The "We Don't Do Viewings" Policy: Aside from that one tragic cameo, they were never available. I ended up doing the rest of the viewings entirely by myself. Honestly, I should send them an invoice for commission, because I did 100% of the actual selling. Summary: If you want to pay a hefty fee to market your own house, answer your own questions, and do your own viewings while playing phone tag with an automated machine, Fox & Sons is the agency for you! Otherwise, save your sanity and look elsewhere.

Natasha is the worst

Natasha is the worst. She told us a bunch of false information when moving in (she said it comes with parking but didn’t and ended up costing us £10 per day extra) and she is super rude. Now we are coming to move out she is ignoring the landlords demands. He has told them to return the deposit but she is refusing (I assume so she can still force him to have a checkout inspection that she can charge for). Any landlords STAY WELL AWAY. She will ignore your best interests.

I called them 4 times to get a viewing booked for a place I liked and they didn’t get back to me even once. The person I spoke with couple times Alex was rude and not doing his job properly. Don’t say you will get back to me and then don’t. Show respect to customers please. Surely this discrimination? Response to owner: I emailed twice and never received a response. Fox and sons is a joke.

Agent replied · 9 December 2024

Hello Karzan, Unfortunately we have searched your details on the database and we cannot see any of your details on there we have also searched any received enquiries and there have been no enquiries by this name. We do of course take any complaints seriously and would always respond within a timely manner if we have been contacted. We have let agreed to many different nationalities and you will see this across our reviews and certainly Alex has helped them move in as well so therefore we would appreciate this review to be removed as we believe this is a false statement. If you are a true individual looking to move please contact the local office and they will be happy to assist you with the move.

This is the second time I have used Fox & Sons Eastbourne for selling a property and definitely won’t be the last. They are a fantastic company. Travis, Alice & Steve do a great job. They are efficient, polite and knowledgeable. Every time they say they are going to do something, they do it. They have kept me informed every step of the way, they are always available when required, and I always feel they care about their customers. There are a lot of Estate Agents who could learn from them!!

I have used the service from fox & Sons to find a property for rent in Eastbourne.The letting negotiator, Ms. Scarlett E Hepburn was very helpful in understanding every detail of the property.

Scarlett could not have been more helpful during my search.

I’d like to give a 5 star exceptional score to Lewis actually, Estate agent at Fox & Son. I viewed the property 3 times without being told there was a huge loft which could easily be converted! Quite a major detail I would say. Keen with a really positive approach and informative attitude …. Good job Lewis thank you 🤩

David Johnston at Fox & Sons Eastbourne…

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!
