GoogleSam, Samuel and Nick have been marvellous all the way from initial enquiry to property visits, finding information and keeping things on track. They were friendly and unflappable throughout the whole process and we are grateful to them. Finally, completion day arrived and we picked up the keys. Happiness all round.

GoogleI just want to especially mention Samuel Townsend from Steven and Carter. He showed my late husband and I a few properties before the pandemic and was so kind when my circumstances changed. We were able to navigate away from the original plan and find a property more suitable for just me. He was always so professional, courteous and responsive to my emails and was able to facilitate the purchase of my new home at a fair price but more importantly made it as stress free possible. A very cheerful and positive person with a 'can do' attitude. I would highly recommended, 5* stars, well done!

GoogleThe ‘Team’ (and I mean Team) at Stevens & Carter, Hailsham provided us with excellent service for the sale of our late Mothers property. Having to deal with such circumstances is stressful in a normal situation, but by keeping the process with a local established Agent assisted with some of the required sale processes that may not have been as simple to resolve with other National providers. I can’t mention anyone individual, as this really was a Team effort with all those involved keeping us informed and updated through the whole process until completion. Thank You for helping us through the sale of the property at a difficult time. From our own experience, I would use Stevens & Carter again in the future and would recommend their services to friends and family.

GoogleAVOID! We were selling out house due to a separation and they have completely ignored one party. When I complained about this they discussed the complaint with my ex before even acknowledging it to me. Awful and unprofessional. AVOID

GoogleStevens & Carter sold us the house a few years ago, they were brilliant then and they were brilliant this time around. All of the team were sympathetic to my situation, but incredibly supportive when there were some issues along the way. I never had any doubt that the sole focus of every member of staff were our best interests. They were honest with regards to market conditions, realistic with things progressing and on the end of the phone or email if I ever had any questions. THANK YOU

GoogleWe have used Stevens and Carter for over 10 years now and have always found them to be professional, efficient and very helpful. Nothing has ever been too much trouble and they always know of a trades person to fix any problems at the property. We are kept fully informed if tenants are thinking about moving on and they quickly find new ones to replace them. I would highly recommend them.

Google*** BUYER ALERT***
This is info for other buyers going through Stevens & Carter Hailsham... in the hope that they are not ‘FLEECED’ as they attempted to do with us.
The agent & vendor alike acted disgracefully.
As a buyer we may be of less importance to these ‘people’ because we all know, higher sales equals higher commission... However certain disgraceful practices should really have Ombudsman consequences.
We were ‘pushed’ up and up on an offer on a property of theirs in Coast Road, Pevensey Bay. Initially marketed at 395K. I was never comfortable with what we finally agreed on (385K) and hence organised a 2nd viewing 14/05/22. We realised that realistically 50K minimum was what actually needed to be spent on this house inside and out especially because on 2nd viewing we realised it needed a whole new heating system which agent, other than a few words on the house profile, NEVER chose to mentioned to us.
Yesterday morning 16/05/22 I sent agent a nice email explaining that regrettably we had to withdraw from the purchase & I explained why.
Their ONLY response was, within an hour or so of my email receipt, reducing the price online by 20K (375K)!!!
If that isn’t proof enough of agent/vendor FLEECING & MALPRACTICE I really don’t know what is!!
In all my dealings with agents over the years this has truly left me flabbergasted to say the least.
BUYERS just please beware!
I am sure the agent will reply to this, will have to reply to this to cover themselves. To you I therefore say again... DISGRACEFUL! I have emails & screenshots of every stage. I want no other BUYER to go through this! My partner & I will make sure of this.

Thank you for your post, Mrs Ghirardani of which your version of events has been duly noted.
Can I ask Is this is a case of you not getting what you wanted and blaming the agent?
However moving on, there are several items you mentioned in your email, that I feel, need to be addressed.
You have used words such as and I quote "FLEECING & MALPRACTICE".
I TAKE EXCEPTION TO THIS and you are quite wrong to say it!
You have said that the property, upon your second visit, needed a whole new heating system and we had decided not to mention this to you. Why would we when the format of heating system (a warm air central heating system) was clearly shown on the property details (as you have confirmed) and in working order. Not only that but this was discussed at your first viewing and again by us with your husband before your second viewing took place. I KNOW because it was me who spoke to him, so can I please ask what did we forget to mention?
You agreed to buy this property and the price was set which was below the guide price of that time. Upon a second viewing you decided on Monday at 07.27am, by email and not by phone, to withdraw from the purchase which of course is your right and always should be.
I had a discussion with the vendor letting him know that you had withdrawn from the sale and we both agreed it was better at this stage than several weeks or months later.
He was and is STILL adamant that he was only willing to accept the figure he agreed with you.
I did suggest that we change the price to OIEO £375,000, I must admit I am unsure as to why you feel this is not something the vendor could do. If you check the property portals, we always market our clients’ properties with the phrase OFFERS IN EXCESS OF £375,000 not just at £375,000.
As you had decided not to buy the property, I felt that this may generate more interest in order to achieve at least the figure YOU AGREED TO PAY. So please don't say we look to fleece buyers and say the way we work is “malpractice” because it is not.
I appreciate that the current market is extremely difficult for buyers, and we do sympathise, but we are employed by our Vendors to achieve the best we can for them as long it is done in an ethical way - and it is. We do not force buyers to increase their offers, if they wish to, they will if they don’t want to, they won’t.
Your posting is quite within your rights, but your version of events is not the truth, only your interpretation............remember you withdrew from the sale!
Finally, here are the details for The Property Ombudsman which we are proud to be members of and if you wish to write to them.
I am confident we will be vindicated by them -
The Property Omsbudman, 45 Milford Street, Salisbury SP1 2BP
