While we have not yet reached completion, I would like to share the excellent experience we've had with Jacobs Steel so far. We have been house hunting in Brighton&Hove for over a year now and their services have been amazing compare to most other local agents. Despite a few set backs, they never gave up looking for our perfect house and kept us updated throughout. We now have found something we are very happy with and the whole process is very smooth. Their help is invaluable in many aspects. I also want to give a special shout out to Cerys Farrell who, despite being "only" a sales apprentice, was absolutely incredible in both scouting the market for what we wanted and making each visit very special! Well done guys :)

Matt is a star 🌟

Matt was great from start to finish. So helpful with queries and always kept us updated with the progress of our first property purchase. He knew exactly what to do with any issues that arose and I really felt in good hands with him. Would highly recommend and I hope he is noticed and given the recognition he deserves.

A pleasant change after using a different agent.

After spending 9 months trying to sell my House with another agent i changed to Jacobs Steel Lancing and things started to move straight away. Good, photos, descriptions, distribution etc.and viewings in the first week with offers shortly after. Friendly supportive discussions which showed a drive to sell and Professionalism. A pleasant experience after 9 months of almost the opposite.

Jacobs Steel are the only estate agent you need if you're buying / selling on the South coast of England. We had a difficult property to sell and they made a stressful period of our lives much easier. Great communicators, polite, kind, enthusiastic, positive, realistic and highly professional. Excellent people doing an excellent job. Many thanks to Harry, Adam and Cerys at the Hove office and Richard, our progressing agent. Thank you all very, very much, H&C xxx

Richard and his team worked really hard to secure our sale, even as we lost buyer after buyer and the road got a bit bumpy. Richard was personable yet professional and had excellent knowledge of the market, and obviously has a lot of experience as he was able to answer every question we threw at him, and always knew and could explain the best approach to take. He was also able to recommend other services (such as surveyors, solicitors and other services required in purchasing and selling a home) at the drop of a hat. One star dropped due to personal preference about communication style - Richard likes to communicate multiple pieces of information at a time, even if that means not being in touch for a few days at a time as he works in the background. I would personally have preferred more regular, minor updates, but I do understand that that would probably be a less efficient approach and would reduce Richard's ability to actually get the sale done! All in all, we would recommend Jacobs Steel, and Richard's team to get your sale completed in a professional manner.

10/10 ! Jacobs Steel recently helped us purchase our first home. From our first viewing of the property to collecting the keys, they were very supportive and helpful. Richard in particular was always very friendly and, on the rare occasion he didn't answer the phone, always phoned us back very quickly. Would easily recommend Jacobs Steel to anyone thinking of selling/buying in Sussex, especially first time buyers as they explained things clearly without ever sounding condescending. Thanks Richard and the team!

Thank you for doing a first class job

I would like to say a huge thank you to Lianne from the letting side of Jacobs Steel in Worthing. She has been amazing at a very difficult time and has been an absolute credit to your team. She never once gave up on the issue I had and quietly sorted out the problem and came up with a solution for both parties. As a business owner myself, I wish all my team had the same work ethics as Lianne and I can’t thank her enough.

Dears at J&S: First I would like to thank Richard Weatheall of J&S/ Hove for you fantastic support to me during the process of purchasing the property in Brighton. You and then Harry were very reassuring and explained step by step the process and helped me to keep on track as my solicitors needed lots of prompting to make any move forward. Richard: you are a shining star in your career and valuable asset to J&S estate agent. My best wishes to you and your team. Dr Aljian, consultant psychiatrist

Fantastic advice and support during what was a very challenging time. Richard went above and beyond to facilitate the success of our sale. He was the only person moving jt forward as the solicitors were not invested in it at all. He was always at the end of the phone or email finding answers when he was unsure. Without him and the rest of the team, the sale would not have gone through. It was a long process and we are all so relieved it is now complete. Prior to even being committed to anything, Matt offered advice and help in regards to selling and letting. I felt I could ask anything and nothing was deemed too small or insignificant.

Neil at Jacobs Steel has been an incredible help with our move and I couldn’t recommend their services more. We found a lovely property which we had to move into within one week. This could have been a stressful process but Neil and the team made it and enjoyable and smooth from start to finish. Neil’s communication, flexibility and customer service throughout was 10/10 and we have been so happy with every stage of the moving process with Jacobs Steel Hove. Highly recommend!

We went through a long drawn-out sale with chains collapsing, buyers dropping out...everything went wrong at one point or another.

Fantastic service from start to finish. Everyone i dealt with was friendly, professional and couldn't have done more to help me through the 'moving house ordeal' an especial HUGE thank you to Richard Wetherall/sales negotiator. Richard worked tirelessly to get a very difficult chain through to the end. Without his determination and constant chasing of rubbish solicitors I'm in no doubt the chain would have collapsed. .. I Can't praise and thank him enough πŸ˜ŠπŸ†. Richard alone is more than enough reason to go thro Jacobs Steel. He's been amazing. Thank you Richard πŸ‘ I would certainly recommend the team at Jacobs Steele Thank you all.. We got there yeayyyyyyy 😊πŸ₯‚πŸ‘πŸ†πŸ»

After searching for ages for a property, with our moving date looming, we viewed an apartment with Jacobs steel that we loved! . Neil was fantastic he answered all our questions and he was with us for every step of our application, he really made us feel supported and like he was on our team. He made sure we got approved in time for our move so everything went so smoothly! Since moving he has been checking in and continuing to support us in our tenancy. Overall we had a fantastic experience with Neil, and I recommend jacobs steel to anyone looking for a new home.

Jacobs Steel gave me an excellent service and I would thoroughly recommend them

My Estate Agent was absolutely brilliant, he instilled confidence from the moment I saw the house. In my opinion he went above and beyond and nothing was too much trouble for him. Overall he was very professional and extremely efficient. I can not recommend Jacobs Steel more highly if he is an example of the workforce.
