We purchased a property from Fox and Son (Hailsham) in October and the whole process was positive! They supported us through the whole purchase and facilitated an extra viewing once contracts had exchanged! We absolutely love our new home and are so grateful for their fab communication and support!

Thank you to everyone at fox and sons hailsham branch that have helped us to purchase our first home. You are all so friendly and professional. A special thank you to Robyn who has been our mortgage consultant who has taked us through the whole process and answered all the questions we had no matter how silly they were. She has been so helpful and has so much knowledge. I reccomend this branch for advice to help buy or sell a property.

Fox & Sons have been excellent in helping to facilitate the sale of our property in Hailsham. The whole team have been great and informative from start to finish, especially Shannon, Claire and David who ensured we were kept up to date regularly and gave brilliant information and advice on our property search and eventual purchase. The staff have incredible local knowledge and provide an extremely high quality service from start to finish, which made us feel very comfortable and confident when dealing with our property sale which is a huge milestone in anyone’s lives. I honestly can’t thank and rate them highly enough! Thank you all!

I've just completed a complex purchase…

I've just completed a complex purchase through Fox & Sons Rottingdean, and could not be happier with the service. Alex in particular was conscientious about keeping me up-to-date throughout, and reassured the vendors that the finance would come through in time for their own purchase deadline. The other staff, in particular Alison, were warm and very helpful. And when I got the keys yesterday, it was very touching to find the vendors had left me a lovely card wishing me happiness in the flat, and two bottles of wine to celebrate!Thanks, Alex, you were ace!

Exceptional service, Yushin was brilliant!

We received exceptional service from Fox & Sons. Our agent Yushin was brilliant. He found some really nice properties matching our criteria that we hadn’t noticed ourselves, and he booked us in to view them within a couple of days. He offered great service, info, and knowledge during the viewings and followed up quickly with answers to our questions afterwards.

Lacking in customer service for neurodiversity

I've recently started looking for a property to buy. Being neurodivergent, I have requested all correspondence be via email from all letting agents, so i can orgabise and manage a very overwhelming process. Unfortunately, Fox and Sons (brighton) seemed to have an issue with this and even so I repeatedly requested email correspondence, I was told that 'phone calls would be easier for both of us'.

We have been overwhelmed by the support and guidance from Fox & Sons Hailsham whilst we buy our first home. Robyn has been able to source a great deal on our mortgage (even in todays world), and has become a very trusted source of advice and information (for years to come!!). Everybody in the office are friendly and professional, Fox & Sons Hailsham are really helping us through this exciting time with the least stress possible!

The Esperance viewing

Lauren showed me around The Esperance. She was very knowledgeable and answered all my questions to a high level and gave me a good understanding on the points I wanted to know. She also pointed out and took me to visit nearby similar properties for comparison and other options. Very helpful and thank you!

Arranged viewing

Arranged viewing, it was raining, we got early but that’s our problem. Then a minute before the arranged time a young guy got out of the car parked right in front of us. He’s from Fox & Sons. He’s been waiting in his car whole time knowing we were waiting outside the property in the rain. He could’ve said like, sorry we can’t show till the arranged time then we’d walk back to our car and wait.

Crawley Branch - Zero Customer Service!

Used Fox & Sons Crawley multiple times to rent one of our properties. They sent us a bill for lettings shortly after a new Tennent arrived which was incorrect and we naturally requested an accurate invoice. Silence for several weeks until we got a letter from a debt collector!! Wowser! We then spent time chasing unanswered calls and emails. The answer from the lettings team at Fox & Son Crawley was "it's nothing to do with us". Clearly it was everything to do with the Crawley branch as they can not do simple addition. No response from branch manager either - as expected. Would not recommend and will avoid in future!!

Did the Solicitors work for them!

4 months to move into an empty, chain-free property seems pretty fascicle but it wouldve been a hell of a lot longer had it not been for Curtis and his colleagues at Fox and Sons, Hastings. I had 6 months to port my mortgage or it wouldve doubled and my property wouldve been unaffordable. It was two certificates holding back the sell. My solicitors were hopeless, the sellers solicitors were just as bad but thankfully Curtis said if this isnt sorted within 24 hours Max is pulling out. 12 minutes later the certificates would be there in the morning and 12 hours later we were good to go. I get they want their cut, but I hear so many stories about estate agents taking their eye off the ball, and the buyer left chasing, thankfully that wasnt the case with Fox and Sons. I had to pay my solicitors £2,500, shouldve given it to these guys! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Tried to underhandedly go behind my agents back to the client telling them we are bad buyers and he should sell through them even though our offer had been accepted and put a for sale board up over our sold sign .. really really bad business practice

Quite poor

As a letting agent they were rather greedy in keeping back much of the deposit As estate agents they weren't particularly on the ball and advertising properties as available after they had gone off the market

Fox & Sons Hailsham did a brilliant job and I would chose them to sell my house again. Really nice, hardworking people who got the job done faster than I expected after researching into house sales and how long they normally take. At this point I think I must know everyone in the branch by name and I'd like to thank them all for being great at what they do

I have recently viewed a couple of properties through Fox and Son and on both occasions Harrison has shown us around.we have a second viewing with him coming up. He is warm and friendly and easy to talk to, but very professional. He has a good knowledge and if there is anything he is not sure of he is happy to find out. He takes time to explain things clearly and doesn’t rush you when viewing. He has always been on time. He has listened and discussed my requirements, so he understands my position. A good experience with Fox and Sons

Best experience I’ve ever had!!!

Was the best experience I’ve ever had with an estate agents, Chris there mortgage advisor was incredible he went above and beyond what we could have ever expected and even after we’d payed for his services he was still pulling late days just to help us get everything we needed ready wether it was mortgage related or not he even worked as hard as possible to get us out mortgage rate fixed before they sky rocketed we could not be more grateful even after we had closed and everything was sorted he still helped us with our life insurance as there was a mistake we made while filling it out, Joanne was also a massive help even though we didn’t buy our house through then in the end she would always get right in touch with us as soon as she found a house she thought we’d like and even pulled an extra day or 2 so we could view the houses due to our busy schedules when the time comes to sell we will definitely be going to her

Persistant phone calls

My complaint is directed at the Hastings branch after repeated requests to be taken off there phone list I still receive calls and after reading other reviews this is not an isolated case to this branch. Also I've had there number blocked for over a year. Rest assured if I ever put my property on the market I most definitely won't be using Fox and Sons.

Are you sitting comfortably?… then I’ll…

Are you sitting comfortably?… then I’ll begin…‘Twas twenty weeks before Christmas, plenty of time to move house, not a creature was stirring, especially not a Fox and sons Estate Agent !!!If you have been sitting down over the festive season with a glass of mulled wine, contemplating moving house, then take our advice…DO NOT USE FOX & SONS!!The whole branch lacked any form of professionalism, or competency. Lucas never returned our calls, only answering the phone if we dialled on a number he didn’t have registered to us. On one occasion, I stood outside the shop and although I could clearly see him, the girl that answered said he was out.For some reason the shop is always locked and the Keys were not always immediately to hand. We regularly had to visit the branch and insist they chase issues for us. Chasing only happens on a Wednesday apparently…really??? They are quite content to place all the blame on their equally incompetent’ in house’ solicitors DCLaw. After 19 weeks of abysmal service, we took matters into our own hands and dealt with the home owner himself to get the sale over the line. Due to several failures to exchange we had to exchange and complete on the same day. There was no one in the branch that day to deal with any issues and DClaw were uncontactable. Other estate agents from the rest of the chain got involved to try and save the day but in the end all 5 lorries were told to unpack. Yet still no communication from Fox & Sons… disgraceful!

Shannon was so helpful, nothing too much trouble, prompt reply to emails or phone calls. She arranged for keys to be dropped of to us at the house on the day of completion which helped us tremendously
