About Breckon and Breckon Headington

Breckon & Breckon is an independent firm of Estate Agents established in 1947 and now operating from a network of seven offices in the county of Oxfordshire. We are property professionals with many years of experience in the local market. Whilst we are constantly recommended by many firms of solicitors, high street banks and other institutions, we are very proud of the fact that the majority of our new business comes from the personal recommendations of past clients. As a privately owned company we are able to react quickly to changes in the market. We constantly review our marketing, often setting new standards for other estate agents to follow. As an established agent we have a large database of prospective buyers that is shared throughout our network of offices. This database is accessed through our state of the art computer system enabling us to match properties to buyers without delay. However, none of this innovation means a great deal if it is not backed up with the right staff. Breckon & Breckon has an enviable reputation and is seen as one of the most sought after companies to work for. Our staff are quite simply some of the most experienced property professionals that Oxfordshire has to offer.

I have used Breckon & Breckon for a number of years and have always been impressed with the friendly, efficient service that I have received. Recently in particular Ashleigh from the Headington office has been great in finding new tenants and keeping me in the loop.

Outstanding service

We used Breckon & Breckon Headington to rent our house and they have been amazing. They replied promptly and helpfully to all emails and were not at all pushy during the viewings. They gave us time to make a decision and did not pressure us at all. There were a few minor repairs issues that needed to be sorted when we moved in, and they organised for a contractor to come the following day and sort it. So far our best experience with an estate agent in Oxford, special thanks to Ashleigh Swales, Josh and Rhys.

House selling the easy way

Selling our house through Breckon and Breckon has been a breath of fresh air. Ross thoroughly impressed us with his thoughtful and insightful valuation which made the decision easy to put the property on the market with them. Viewings went smoothly and we quickly secured our sale. During the sales process we were very impressed by the professionalism of Ross and the team. When we had the inevitable hiccups along the way Ross quickly picked and managed the issues thereby earning our complete trust in the process. From various communications I also gained the impression that through his honest professionalism he also had the trust of our buyers. We wholeheartedly recommend the team at Breckon and Breckon, and that's irrespective of whether you are selling or buying though them. Andy & Janet

The best agents in Oxford

I have just completed on my first home purchased through Breckon & Breckon in Headington and what can I say? The whole process could not have gone any smoother. Matthew Heavens and Melissa Bush without a doubt are the nicest agents I have ever dealt with, both extremely responsive, friendly and professional. I consider myself very fortunate that I had such fantastic people assisting me with the purchase, especially Melissa who spent a lot of time answering my questions and arranging visits, always helpful and kind, very polite and never pushy. Thank you Breckon & Breckon, thank you Melissa and Matthew. I would give you 6 stars if I could :)

Professional and personal service from agents with excellent local knowledge.

I was impressed that Matthew, the Manager, came to meet me at the property at the outset. I was struck by his professionalism and friendliness. He clearly understood the local market and provided a realistic valuation, while setting my expectations. I was advised in advance of each of the many viewings and feedback was provided in every case. Ross and Melissa kept me informed throughout, and answered all my calls and emails promptly. As the Headington branch is a small office, I felt I received a very personal service. In summary, I would thoroughly recommend the Breckon and Breckon Headington office if you are planning to market a property in the area they cover.

Melissa, and Matthew were both very helpful and professional. I was buying a property but felt well supported and looked after by them. Melissa was the main person I dealt with and she was incredibly efficient. I would highly recommend this branch if people are thinking of selling locally.

Top Agents in Headington

Based on recommendations and having met Matthew Heavens we decided to instruct Breckon & Breckon to sell our house. Matthew, Ross and Melissa provided excellent and informed advice and were proactive in coordinating and advising on viewings, enabling us to secure a buyer quickly. One of the reasons we choose Breckon & Breckon was because of their excellent coverage of the Headington market. As a result, we were then fortunate to secure our next house also through Breckon & Breckon. We would definitely recommend Matthew, Ross and Melissa to any prospective seller or buyer.

Excellent work

I would like to thank Breckon and Breckon for their excellent work in selling my flat through the most efficient, newest team-member Melissa Bush. I cannot rate Melissa highly enough - she went well beyond the call of duty as we were dealing with inefficient solicitors of my buyers. Melissa contacted them frequently to ensure they got their documentation to my solicitor as soon as possible. Melissa was courteous at all times, outstandingly hardworking, always answering my emails or calls almost immediately. and cheerful every time I spoke to her. This young lady will go far in the Estate Agents' world - remember her name as one day, I can imagine her heading up her own agency! THANK YOU MELISSA and thank you all staff of Headington Breckon and Breckon for always being supportive when I popped in and Melissa was out with other clients. Ruth

Went the extra mile

As first-time buyers we weren't completely sure about the process, and Ross and his team really went the extra mile to explain everything to us, helping us know what to expect when. This made the learning curve so much easier for us, and much less intimidating. They were always quick to respond to our queries and to pass on the sellers' queries, and have even helped us post-sale to sort out the mail! I have no hesitation in recommending Ross and Breckon & Breckon.

Complicated chain, outstanding support

We were a part of a complicated chain. We viewed a home in Witney, Oxon in February and fell in love with the property. To move forward, we needed to put our two houses on the market. John had them online and live with professional photographer within the space of a week. We very quickly had viewings (10~) within a week and moved to offer stage within a month. John supported us thinking through the offers we received and the offer we made. I found him to be a great source of guidance throughout the entire process and cannot recommend him enough. We also partnered with Alex, who sold one of our houses and did several viewings and he was consistently supportive, contactable and open. I found the group whatsapp chat useful, quick, and easy to communicate. If we were to sell again, we would definitely use B&B. Highlights: Consistent communications with updates Transparency wherever possible Guidance on complex situations (chain complications!) Management of conversation with Solicitors Support in selling and procuring furniture/curtains etc… Honest and Open Accelerated process wherever possible
