Dacre Son and Hartley Knaresborough reviews

A huge thank you to Sue, Anita and the Dacres team! After looking at many houses with yourselves, you were insanely patient, listened to my wants, provided suggestions and as a result found me the dream property to suit my every need. Not only did they find me the property, but sold my old one too, making the process insanely easy and smooth. When everyone told me it could take weeks or months to sell, they found a buyer in a matter of days!! The support, guidance and reassurance they provided to me throughout the way, despite probably annoying them at times, made this possible, always with a smile! If you’re buying or selling a house in the Knaresborough and surrounding areas, you’d honestly have to be crazy not to use them!! Highly recommend, and a huge thank you again!!

Harriet and the team at Dacres Knaresborough were excellent throughout the sale of my property. Communication was clear, friendly and professional from start to finish, and everything was handled smoothly through to completion. Harriet in particular was very helpful in moving the process along and preventing delays to my move. Highly recommended.

This is the second time I have had dealings with Dacre Son & Hartley and I couldn’t have wished for a better transition of properties. I arranged 3 estimates for selling my property and all were of a similar cost for the selling package but I selected Dacre Son & Hartley after previous personal experience. After listing my property both Harriet and Anita visited the property to see what renovation works had been undertaken and to grasp the positives of the property for selling. The property sold within 1 day and although luck does play a part I firmly believe good marketing and excellent customer service plays a huge part. Following agreement being reached on the sale the after sales service between the purchaser and myself was faultless. Communication with solicitors was again not a problem and I was updated every step of the journey. I cannot speak more highly of Dacre Son & Hartley, Knaresborough and I would not hesitate to recommend them should you be selling a property in the area. Thank you

I hesitated to leave this review, but my experience with Dacre, Son & Hartley Knaresborough branch compels me to share. In the past two weeks, they delivered two unsolicited mailings to my home, boasting of a "Platinum Trusted Service Award." On 21st March 2025, I emailed the branch requesting a quote to sell my property. Receiving no reply, I called to follow up, and they confirmed receipt of my email, promising a response. None was provided. If they cannot manage basic communication with a potential client, I have little confidence in their service once you are a customer.

Amazing service from Dacres Knaresborough office from start to finish. Nick's valuation and recommendations were well researched with supportive evidence and it was great to tap into his vast local knowledge. Harriet’s support throughout the selling process was exemplary and very professional, the offers received were well evaluated and recommendations provided to highlight the top contenders. Harriet updated us frequently on the progress of the chain of buyers below us and ensured any problems were highlighted quickly. Overall, it was her approach that contributed to a positive experience and successful conclusion. Thankyou.

Very happy. Dacres have been excellent to work with. We have had good communication throughout from friendly staff. We had plenty of viewers around the property resulting in a quick offer at full asking price. Overall I would very much recommend Dacres and thank you to all involved with our house sale.

Absolutely recommend the team at the Knaresborough branch of Dacre, Son & Hartley. Nick's local knowledge was obvious during his market appraisal, as was his understanding of his client base. Anita managed the "paperwork" involved in getting mum's bungalow on to the market. The bungalow attracted many viewings, all dealt with by the sales team, keeping me updated at all times. Unfortunately, the original purchaser dropped out but the team had several other interested parties lined up. We were fortunate to receive two further offers, one of course accepted and I trust the new owners are happy in their new home. Special mention to Harriet and Sue who were both involved in viewings and were very understanding of the emotions involved in selling mum's bungalow on her behalf. Thank you all for a very professional job and successful outcome.

I can highly recommend Dacre Son and Hartley. All the staff are extremely friendly and professional and nothing is too much trouble. Nick is vastly experienced and my home sold on the first day. The marketing of my property was superb with …

From the day my house was put on sale I was impressed by the efficient and competent way the agent dealt with requests. All through the process of selling i was given support and considered information on what was happening. It was reassuring.. I was continually kept informed as to what was happening. After the house was sold and I was having to deal with solicitors with the exactly opposite motivational traits, the estate agent kept negotiating between their office and myself which offered me encouragement and progress information i would not have had. I cannot speak more highly of the work they have done.

We recently sold our house through Dacre Son and Hartley, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. Despite facing several unavoidable hiccups during the process, including a collapsing wall, the team was incredibly supportive and guided us through each challenge with professionalism and care. Their communication was fantastic from start to finish, always keeping us informed and reassured at every stage. Even in the face of unexpected obstacles, they remained proactive and resourceful, ensuring that the sale proceeded smoothly. Highly recommend.

I've been so pleased with the help Dacres have given me during the sale of my property. Nick who came to do the valuation is extremely knowledgable about the Knaresborough property market. Anita was on hand throughout to answer my questions and help manage discussions with my buyers. I didn't realise quite how much they would be helping me with the sale - thank you :D

I really can’t thank the team at Dacre Son & Hartley Morley enough for the way in which they recently handled the sale of my late mums property. From the initial valuation all the way through to completion they were professional, proactive and extremely supportive. But more importantly they cared - about mum and dads home, and about the family. Communications were excellent, honest and nothing was too much trouble. I have moved homes a few times over the years and I have never experienced such a caring and professional service from an Estate Agent. Would highly recommend without question.

I recently sold my property and the Estate Agent of choice was Dacres in Knaresborough. Almost immediately an agent came to my house and did all the necessary administration and within a very short time my house was on the market. A day later I had 3 viewings and my house sold almost immediately. Throughout the process Harriet (Dacres) kept me abreast of everything and regularly just checked in to let me know if there hadn’t been any changes which provided reassurance that she was managing my move and invested. She had a wonderful demeanour and helped make light of the move which as we know is one of the most stressful life events you can experience - so thank you and well done.
