McCarthy Holden have worked professionally and fast to support with the sale of the house. Advice has been honest and measured. Victoria, Richard and Amalia have been consistent in their communication and very easy to work with! Edit: we have now sold our house and purchased another and the team were just as valuable in that process!

Exceptional Service and Expertise from Victoria Davies! Victoria demonstrated a level of professionalism and empathy that truly set her apart from local competitors. Taking into consideration our wish-list, she wasted no time in sourcing and presenting us with an off-market house that exceeded our expectations. Quickly arranging a viewing and introducing a property that might have otherwise slipped through the cracks. Throughout the entire process, Victoria was responsive, transparent, and proactive (never pushy). She communicated every detail promptly, ensuring that we were well-informed and comfortable with each step. Victoria's warm and friendly personality made the entire experience enjoyable, smooth and surprisingly quick. Thank you Victoria, for making our home-buying experience a truly positive and memorable one!

I recently sold a property in Fleet through Ben Murphy and his team. The service was excellent from beginning to end. At the first appointment Ben arrived smartly dressed and very well equipped with marketing tools and information that really stood him out from other competitors I saw. The sales team had several viewings before the property went on the internet and I had a buyer within two weeks. I also liked that they have a separate after-sales manager, David Starling, who updated me throughout the process until the exchange day. I would not hesitate to recommend to anyone thinking of selling or buying.

* OUTSTANDING PROFESSIONAL SERVICE - START TO FINISH* I very recently completed on my house sale (a property on Elvetham Heath in Fleet). I can honestly say McCarthy Holden gave perfect advice and managed the whole process exceptionally well. I originally requested rental and sale valuations back in April (2017). McCarthy Holden being happy and able to do so during the same appointment. The valuations were conducted by Julie Brooks-McGoldrick (Lettings) and Richard Ebsworth (Sales), both extremely helpful and professional throughout. At that stage, I was undecided whether to rent out or sell the property. Therefore, I explained to both Julie and Richard that I would need at least 6-8 weeks to consider my options. I therefore made a polite request that upon receipt of their valuations, I did not wish to be contacted or put under pressure to make a decision - a request that was completely adhered to and ultimately made my decision to market the property with McCarthy Holden. Upon instructing McCarthy Holden to sell the property, Richard handled the production of the sales particulars and advertising/marketing with ease. Soon after, the viewings started coming through with viewing appointment emails making everything very easy to arrange. Feedback was also given shortly (a day or so) after each viewing. After a sensible number of viewings, Victoria Davies (Fleet Residential Sales) found suitable buyers and a sale was arranged. From this point on, David Starling (Sales Progression) progressed the sale through to Exchange and Completion with regular informative updates - all very much appreciated. In summary, Richard and the whole team have honestly made the whole process completely and utterly pain free. I really cannot thank you all enough - you've all done a fantastic job! Having had the above experience, I give McCarthy Holden my full permission to use this review as testament to their professionalism and outstanding level of service from start to finish. Therefore, if you're considering selling (or letting) your property, I highly recommend McCarthy Holden to be the first agents through your door. A very satisfied vendor - Paul Molyneux

An outstanding service when selling our house from start to finish - from initial discussions, preparing the brochure and pictures, marketing, communications, ‘hand holding’ throughout and the end result which was the successful sale of our cherished home. Victoria and Amalia did everything to exceed our expectations. Many thanks!

Ashlyn Moss was a great help and was very informative during our viewings with her at a property in Odiham. We have now decided to go forward with this property! She was great with us and really accommodating when I needed her for anything. I’m not sure who her manager is but they should be very thankful to have Ashlyn as part of their team. Thanks again!

Richard and the team at McCarthy Holden in Fleet are just amazing. I bought our home through them and when it was time to sell I used them again, their attention to detail, professionalism and knowledge of the market are second to none. I would definitely recommend them!

Not sure where to start. Viewed a rental via the Fleet office, made an offer subject to conditions, all accepted. Then the conditions were subject to quotes, ie not accepted. Made us take a two hour round trip drive to hand over our ID in person, as if this is a rule, it isnt. Had a second viewing with the house empty, firmed up the conditions. Agent didnt actually know what she was talking about. Her manager was rude and abrupt. The director gets involved with a reputational salvage operation on the phone - must be her most common task. Weeks of radio silence pass to be told that the landlord changed his mind. By then we had realised the type of outfit we were dealing with and viewed another house which was sorted within a week. Dodged a bullet there. The type of estate agent that was common in the eighties and gave the industry such a dismal reputation, i know im old and remember well. In my view they think tenants are there to be educated and do what they are told. I found them comically amateur to deal with on every level. I cant wait for the robotic reply this review will receive.. awful experience dont be fooled, in our experience this is a small minded business not used to customers who have a mind of their own. BTW have noticed they have a small office in Mayfair, interesting since i lived there for 17 years and know mostly all the agents in the area. I cannot imagine they operate in the same way, but they probably do.

Victoria has been fabulous in helping us find our home. We were searching for a while but from the moment we contacted her she was really proactive. Once we found the house she helped us move through the negotiations quickly and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her.

Although we’ve yet to find a house in Fleet due to the high demand / lack of housing within the area we cannot fault McCarthy’s knowledge and professionalism in helping us with our search so far. Victoria is extremely experienced; friendly and helpful; and we are confident it won’t be long before we find our dream home.

The team provided an excellent service throughout the sales process. Their professionalism, clear communication, and attention to detail made the experience straightforward, efficient and, most of all, stress-free. I would highly recommend their services to anyone looking to sell their property.

We purchased our new home through McCarthy Holden. Victoria communicated with us and the other estate agents in the chain very effectively. We had more information from her than the estate agent handling our sale. Overall a good experience.

McCarthy Holden provided us a very professional and excellent service. They have sold our last 2 houses and we always use them where we can. In both cases we worked together with them on the valuation of the property and marketing and we sold both of our houses within 1 week of going to market. I cannot recommend them enough. Victoria Davies is an excellent property consultant.

Really pleased with the after sale service. David and Amalia kept us informed about the sale, and were able to liaise with the seller. The legal side can be daunting but we were able to discuss the details and get a clear picture of what was going on. Thank you.

Ben Murphy has sold two properties for me now, both in Fleet, over the past 15 years. His professional attitude, understanding and local knowledge surpass any other agent I have dealt with in the area. I would not consider going anywhere else. Ben and his team are truly wonderful to deal with.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

We ran to McCarthy Holden after a new local estate agent failed to sell our home after multiple failed attempts and offer the level of service we required when selling in todays market. McCarthy Holden quickly ran to our rescue and had our property listed on the portals within days and had loads of viewings lined up. We then subsequently had an offer from a first time buyer who was able to move quickly in order to help us secure our onward purchase. I wouldn't hesitate to use McCarthy Holden again. Victoria, Amelia and the team go above and beyond to ensure that there is someone to speak to when you need and offer an outstanding service! If you're looking to buy or sell - I would recommend speaking with them first!

Delighted with the professional marketing and experienced staff at McCarthy Holden in Fleet. Although the sale took a lot longer than expected we were kept up to date the whole time. It was certainly a team effort, but special thanks to Ben and Amalia for your help and continued best wishes for the future.
