Philip Bannister & Co Elloughton reviews

Excellent

Excellent. Selling your home can be a very stressful time but from the valuation right through to the end on move day. We could not have had more support from Charlotte, we even had support with the buying of our new property. We were kept up to date at every step of the process and given excellent advice. Thanks to Bannisters selling our home even during lockdown was much easier experience than we thought.

Ian at Philip Bannister in Elloughton was super helpful throughout what was a challenging moving process for us. He responded to calls and queries quickly and constantly chased on our behalf. Thank you Ian for your help.

We have just had a valuation on our house, Alex Bannister came and valued our home. A nicer well spoken individual who conducted himself so professionally, you would not meet anywhere nowadays. Well spoken and so informative, it was an absolute pleasure to meet, a credit to his parents, they must be very proud of him. I would have no hesitation to recommend Bannisters Estate Agents to any of my friends or family.

Outstanding service

We purchased our ideal bungalow through Philip Bannister Hessle and I would like to praise the outstanding service we received from the staff and especially Sue McAuley. We were given very little information from our own estate agent and solicitor but Sue was able to keep us informed at all times and resolve situations that were out of our control and offered reassurance that she would do her best to get the answers that we required ( which she did). We cannot thank her enough. We would highly recommend Sue and her team.

Ian was absolutely outstanding. He worked to the benefit of the buyer (myself) and the vendor. His communication was exceptional, he did what he said he would do, when he said he'd do it. His understanding of the process, his diligence and professionalism made the experience infinitely easier.

Very supportive agents

Bannisters were very supportive keeping us well informed throughout our sale all the way to completion and beyond. the photos taken by Alex were excellent.Jennie always made sure she returned our calls, we were not just ignored after our offer was accepted like some agents, she established the length, strength and validity of the house chain, she then kept our sale on track over the following weeks, she was also supportive to our buyer with advice and guidance.

Fantastic service

We have very recently sold a property through Philip Bannister & Co and I would just like to say a big thank you to all the staff involved but especially to Sue and Jennie. The property was marketed and sold within a couple of weeks and from that point Jennie kept us regularly updated ( as well as chasing up the solicitors ). Nothing seemed to he too much trouble ! We would not hesitate to recommend Philip Bannister & Co.

Superb service

Superb service! We sold our house through Bannister’s and knew from day 1 we made the right decision. Alex was dealing with our property and he couldn’t have been more helpful. Always answering our queries swiftly and always made time to update us on any progress, which was really impressive as it was an extremely busy period. Will certainly be using Bannister’s again in the future!

I have used Bannisters to both buy and sell houses and I have always found them to be superb. The sales team (Ian, Charlotte and Mat)are friendly and efficient and provide an excellent service and always making the process of selling or buying as stress free as possible. If selling any house in the future I would always recommend using Bannisters to do so.

Excellent service from Ian, Mathew and Charlotte at the Elloughton office of Philip Banister. A valuation above what I expected, which was achieved. Very good communication from the team and effective support at all stages of the sales process. Ian also made some very useful recommendations of surveyors and removals firms, which I took up, and in both cases I had excellent service from the people recommended. I’d be happy to recommend Philip Banister to anyone wanting to sell a house locally.

Selling a house is a big project and a massive decision. Like most I invited a few agents to get a valuation and on the face of it they all look the same. It's when you talk to them and more important listen to what they are meaning not what they are saying that you weed out the false promises and clouds of smoke with mirrors. Philip Bannister came himself to my home on two occasions and I found him wholly personable and pleasant but above all credible and although his valuation wasn't the highest it was the most honest. He didn't talk price discounting on any visit or try to pull my home down to make me feel like it should be cheaper unlike others did. After all any fool can sell when giving it away and if the fees sound too good to be true at a fixed rate you know they are already thinking of price reduction. Well Bannisters never did that to me once. Always respectful but not afraid to wound with a few truths that needed airing. I have to say I would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone serious about selling their house for a sensible price with bucket loads of honesty and support. Oh and yes they sold my house within 8 weeks in the toughest market in the winter of climbing interest rates. And that's as they say that !!

Philip Bannister & Co sold my house within 2 weeks of it going online. The viewings were well organised and attended by Ian. Unfortunately, the chain broke beneath me which delayed things but throughout the whole process Charlotte kept me updated every step of the way and was faultless in keeping things moving as quickly as possible. I can’t thank her enough for her help and advice. I would recommend Bannisters to anyone thinking of selling their house.

Outstanding service!!!

During Covid times everything was made more complicated... however, this was not the case with Bannisters. Ian was so helpful at every stage of my purchase, keeping me well informed via email and phone. Ian made the whole experience run smoothly with his fabulous communication and professional manner. I can't thank Ian and the team enough.

Agent Ian, - A diamond with many facets

Something told me it was my property’s fault…..You can prepare all you like to sell what you think is lovely; You want the most, of course. The agent values and judges the market. You hold out for your top end judgement, - after all you know your property best, don’t you? And you think you’re right as the agent continues to show highly numerous viewings. No offers. The market decides. Why didn’t I listen earlier to my agent who spends 9-5 every week for 18 yrs, honing his local knowledge? In the end, I “adjusted” the Selling Price. Viewers came but only 1 (reduced) offer. This is where Ian ran the course of the sale with astute experience. He gauged the situation of the purchaser to his selling advantage & managed the purchaser against their pending query’s and advised me with alternative options with scenarios of outcomes, when I had to make deal progressive decisions. This is where the action was. Ian was like the conductor of an orchestra, pulling the instruments to play together… but to my advantage. I always felt he was on my side. I could trust his judgement implicitly to put to the purchaser, my wants, in the way that he’d get the right result. The process wasn’t simple because of the nature of the buyer and, because my property “had issues”, - but he dit it! Selling is a hurdle, but I felt Ian took on hurdles at each bend. An agent has to bat with both sides, but I always knew Ian’s hits were for our sale, keeping it on course. Can’t thank him enough for getting this one through. Thoroughly, brilliantly, skilful…. and with humour when it was needed. The Bannisters team was there too for when Ian “had to eat”; Will definitely be asking Ian at BANNISTERS to sell again for us.

Fantastic Support from Start to Finish

I had an excellent experience with Philip Bannister. Even though I’m based in Australia, their team made everything incredibly smooth and personal. They treat you like a real person, not just another client. Communication was quick and clear, and they genuinely cared about helping me find the right property. Highly recommend their services to anyone needing a trustworthy UK real estate agency.

We have recently sold our property with phillip banister and Co. Sue was absolutely fantastic. She made the whole process stress free and manageable. From the moment she valued our house to completion...and there was a few curve balls thrown in along the way! Always kept us in the loop with information and tried her very best to solve situations out of her controll! So thank you sue you went above and beyond for us and without your help we wouldn't be in our new house now.Would definitely reccomend this estate agents to anyone thinking about selling their property.
