GoogleA property for sale during Brexit and then the Coronavirus!!! I was introduced by a friend who had used Hunters and could not have been more positive, so I meet with Niall and he was realistic and explained the market for the uniqueness of the property and the market it would attract and understood my expectations and put me at ease, everything from there was plain sailing, within a dozen viewings a realistic offer was made and accepted and I cannot fault the service provided by the Hunters Team and would highly recommend them head and shoulders above the rest.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

Dear Georgiana,
I am sorry to hear that you made your way to a property we had for rent on Saturday 13th September to find no one was there. I have spoken to the member of the team who you spoke to and she advised me she rang your mobile number at 10.55am on Saturday morning to advise you that the appointment would not be taking place. I have also checked my company phone records and see the record of the outbound call to you. We always confirm all appointments on the day with clients to ensure they haven’t had a change of plans to ensure we don’t travel to an appointment and no one shows up. I am always happy to accept constructive comments, however on this occasion I do not see that it is our fault you attended an appointment we had called and left a voicemail to cancel earlier in the day. Kind Regards, Niall Hebron.

GoogleSeemed very efficient and helpful at first.
Shortly after having an offer accepted, we found out the vendor didn't have a lease for the property. Continuously told us that they were chasing and trying to find it. After 7 weeks of no progress, we asked for an action plan and were encouraged to buy the property with an indemnity. The story of the seller also changed and we found out it was a linked mortgage brokers mother who was selling. We believe they knew of the problems beforehand and hoped as first time buyers that we wouldn't realise it was a bad sale.
We politely withdrew our offer and never heard anything back. Not even a well wish. Wouldn't recommend!

Dear AC3, I am sorry to hear you feel you have received a bad service from my business as this is not representative of how we work. I understand you are disappointed with this being your first property and how much you were looking forward to moving in. I know that my team would never deliberately mislead anyone in to buying a property if they were not happy. I can assure you I will investigate this matter fully and I will write to you personally with a full response of my findings. Kind Regards, Niall Hebron.

GoogleI found the whole experience with Hunters to be excellent. Selling my late parents property comes with all the emotion that you would imagine. I needed an agent that could handle the whole process for me and my family. So full credit to the whole team in terms of the marketing, arranging viewings and of course monitoring the sale to completion. To complete on a property sale in the current climate is no mean feat!! I can not fault the end to end experience. Thanks again to Niall, Julian and all at Hunters.

TrustpilotAn unfortunate attitude from Hunters
My boyfriend and I were purchasing a property through Hunters and they were pleasant enough. However, when we received the results of the independent survey two months down the line, it highlighted what we considered to be significant problems with the property, particularly the necessity of a whole new roof, and the replacement of brickwork.Naturally, we had not - and could not have - factored in the cost of these repairs, or the time it would take to carry them out, so we emailed our contact at Hunters in Sunderland, simply outlining the issues that the survey had presented, and attaching the report in full. The reply we received explained ‘The seller is not under any obligation to carry out any work or offer a reduction’. While true, this attitude seemed hostile to us, and rather unprofessional. We did not mention a negotiation of price, or the current owners carrying out the work themselves - although, to be frank, these did not seem unreasonable expectations.We had misgivings about how considerable an undertaking the repairs would be, both financially and physically, but were open to discussing options with Hunters/the sellers. However, we decided to withdraw from the sale, and Hunters’ attitude did play a big part in that. As a prospective buyer, you do not have a choice over which estate agent to deal with, but I would certainly be reticent about purchasing a property sold by Hunters in the future, and would strongly advise sellers to consider the overwhelmingly negative reviews on this page before engaging Hunters, as the wrong estate agent could scupper a sale, as in this case.

TrustpilotDishonest and unprofessional
We drove over 250 miles to view a house listed for let @ £900. We said we like it and were happy to proceed, after all similar properties down south cost £1000 a month….We were absolutely shocked when they got back to us, offering us the house for £1000 because they knew we could afford it… we were aghast! I have never ever encountered such skullduggery and dishonesty…. Of course we declined… how can one deal with such a dishonest estate agent as these!

Very helpful, kind and considerate.We have just moved into our new home after lots of ups and downs which started with the Covid lockdown.

It was a very difficult time, made more complicated by living a long way from Hornchurch. Julian Creevy really went above and beyond in his service, which was not only professional and efficient but also empathetic and friendly. The sale was entirely stress-free, thanks in no small part to Hunters. I have no hesitation in recommending them.

TrustpilotHunters Horncastle:
Hunters Horncastle:If you are looking for an EA who keeps you updated and informed then I would NOT use Hunters, if you want the privilege of paying for doing your own work then by all means use this EA, also if you want to feel as though the EA is acting on behalf of the buyer instead of the seller… this is the one for you!!! They say the right things to get the initial business and then offer bad advise and never any follow up or conversations about the state of the market during contract period, even when requested. Also emails and WA messages were ignored. Worst Estate Agent I’ve ever used. It seems that Katherine (who did the viewings) and Susan (admin) seem to hold them just above water and do all the donkey work. Just my honest opinion!! Would have given zero rating if possible

TrustpilotI was buying a house through hunters
I was buying a house through hunters, wasn’t the best experience in the world. When it came to getting the keys from the bishop Auckland office, I was told to wait outside in the cold for 15 minutes, then presented with 1 key by itself, there was no congrats on your first home or any welcome gifts or anything, just here’s your key, see you later 👍🏼😂 got into the house, it wasn’t clean, the kitchen had been flooded which warped all the kitchen floor which I then had to pay to get it sorted. They should have done a check once the owners were out the house in order to make sure it was in a fit state and as seen on the viewings. I’ve since rented out houses around that area and stayed well clear of hunters, I would never use them again after the experience I had with them.

Due to reasons beyond my control the sale process was not as easy as anticipated however the reassurance and professionalism from hunters where outstanding. I went with hunters theough word or mouth and i have already recommended Hunters to friends who i know are selling or thinking of selling their property. They are an amazing team and so friendly. Thankyou ladies for making a difficult situation so bareable. We got there in the end.

Just don't use this Estate Agent. And really don't use them to do an Inventory. They made so many errors we had to almost redo it ourselves. They missed the Fridge Freezer. Washing machine and Dishwasher in the Kitchen. They said there was a white wooden wardrobe in the bathroom, there isn't I could go on and on. I have asked for a refund but of course not heard anything!

TrustpilotTheir inefficiency made me lose a living place
This is how I kept urging the agent to follow up & how their inefficiency made me lost a living place in Sep.I viewed the flat on 4th Aug and paid holding deposit on the same date. My offer was accepted on 7th Aug. When Hunters and Homelet spend more than one month for my reference check and preparation of lodger agreement, I kept asking them when I can sign the contract and so I can transfer 6 month upfront rent and deposit.On 7th Aug, I tried to enter my details of reference check on the same date. However, the system had bug. Hunters staff helped me enter the details with their internal systems in the following day, although there are some typo of my job and address reference.Perhaps because of the miscommunications among 2 parties, Homelet refused to do reference check for me as they have not yet got the approval from Hunters. With numerous e mail I requested Hunters to fix it, Homelet started sending e mails to my manager and current landlord for reference check on 15th Aug.On 17th Aug, Hunters staff asked me to pay 6-month upfront rent and deposit by e mail without sending me the lodger agreement. I promised them to make the payment when they send me the contract and contract is signed.On 25th Aug, I received the lodger agreement finally after several requests. I raised some questions in the e mail in order to shorten the time for them to answer me during our future meeting of contract signing.On 6th Sep, another Hunters staff invited me to go to their office and sign the contract on the following day. I gave her my questions again for her better preparation. On 7th Sep, that staff said meeting date had to be changed. She answered my questions very briefly. Perhaps she is not familiar with the letting issues of the flat, I simply said I will ask others when I move in. I tried to ask when we meet and sign the contract. She did not reply.On 8th Sep, another Hunters staff told me that the landlord decided to accept another offer. The studio is no longer available in the market. He asked me to state my bank details and they will refund the holding deposit. I once thought the landlord must keep bidding for a higher rental price.I must move out before 23rd Sep as official move out notice was given to the current landlord. During resume of finding rental place, I found the flat in Zoopla again with rental price unchanged.Later I found the staff of the landlord and told the landlord what’s really happening. The landlord felt so sorry & decided to give me viewings of 3 other studios. However, the size and location do not suit my need.

TrustpilotRude and unprofessional
I had a viewing arranged and nobody could give me a meeting point for a large apartment building with several entrances. Spent nearly 20 minutes at the location wondering around and trying to reach the person that was supposed to show me around, all calls declined. Office couldn’t get through to her either and when she finally calls me is to rudely tell me off for not showing up at a different entrance when she never told me where to go, speaking to me in an angry tone and then hanging up.
