Molly Anderson at the Seaford Branch has been extremely informative and helpful during the process of us seeking out a new property to purchase. I very much look forward to dealing with her during this time and hope to purchase a property from her.

Harassing me with phone calls when iv asked them to stop more than once

I asked fox and sons to come a do a valuation of my late father’s property. I have then been phoned 20times since asking if they can put the property on the market for me. I asked them politely to not phone me any more as it’s on the market with a different estate agent and to take my details of the system. They said they would I have since then received 5 other phone calls from them and each time been told they will take my of the the system. I have had three calls since and each time I have asked not to be phoned and they keep phoning me. It’s getting to the point of harassment now. I would stay clear. They clearly don’t listen to peoples wishes and feel it’s ok to continue to phone someone when they have been asked not to. If only they put the same amount of effort into selling a property ( they had my old house on the market two years and had about three people for viewings. STAY CLEAR

Sydney Murphy made the home-buying process smooth and stress-free with her professionalism and deep market knowledge. She was always available to answer questions, provided valuable insights, and guided us through every step with confidence. Her attention to detail and dedication ensured we found the perfect home. Highly recommend Sydney to anyone looking for a reliable and knowledgeable real estate agent.

Terrible service, avoid!

Terrible service, would not recommend. Would give zero stars if I could! There was no feedback following viewings, zero communication or market updates, and I had to point out listing errors multiple times (including the lease length being incorrectly shown as zero years!). I only received a brief, non-committal apology. I’ve now withdrawn the property. I wish I’d gone with an independent originally, someone who actually cares.

Continuously hassled even after asking multiple times not to be

The estate agent that came to value my property needed more customer experience. He asked very intrusive questions, was rude about other estate agents valuations, was very pushy and I felt I had to be firm when I said I am only wanting a second opinion, not for them to market my property. I asked not to be contacted by them and I would be in touch if I needed their services. In the weeks following, the decision was made for me not to use them as I was contacted via telephone at least twice a week, pushing me to put it on the market with them when all I’d asked for is a valuation. When I asked multiple times to be taken off their contact list, the message clearly didn’t get through as I was contacted a further three times after this. No voicemails were left - just missed calls from an unknown number. When I explained my frustrations, they were far from understanding and got defensive. I will not be using this estate agent nor recommending it to anyone.

I would give 0 if I could

⁷I would give 0 if I could. Terrible experience with fox&sons London Road Brighton. We had our house advertised with them for bearly 6 months. We had 3 viewings & 10 cancellations, however, when you looked, they claimed we had 13 viewing. Our biggest mistake was to go with them. Totally unprofessional photos. We changed the agent and within a week we had 4 viewing & one offer!! Additionally, when we left this agent, they carried on advertising our house without our permission with a new price!! Dispute both written & verbal communications! Totally unprofessional. We should have read the reviews and avoided them at all cost!! So far we have had 2 offers and might have the final offer soon.

I spoke with Molly on the phone today at Fox and Sons, she was really helpful with assisting me with my potential move to the area, even though i haven’t decided if i want to make the move, if I do I will definitely want her to help me. With all the estate agents i spoke to in the town, she was the friendliest and I really felt that she listened to my requirements. Highly recommend!

Total crap the valuation it was all sunshine…

At the valuation it was all sunshine and smiles with ,Buyers marching to my door I WAS TOLD , As soon as the sign went up SILENCE. A month later Not one viewing No communication , Sibi emailed and said if this doesn't pick up I'll apply to revoke the contract, Just 15 minutes later A notification appeared ,"You have a viewing" Bullshit, They just got an ex colleague of friend to visit on a day I had not chosen for viewings and the escorted viewing option was a sham because the agent turned up 20 minutes late After id shown the person around .This shambles was to make the threat go away , They then called me and advised me to lower the price Into the next lower bracket and it would creat huge interest . Bullshit Nothing For another month , A phone call from them put if the blue Arrived And the cheeky bastards wanted me to lower the price again . So I stayed there and then I want out of this contract for complete failure on your side ,without any penalties for earl closure ,And if you don't agree I'll take this to the ombudsman. 10 mins later, That's ok the contract is void no penalties . So now all I need is for them to come and get there bloody sign of my garden , I'm not advertising their shit company for free. Avoid fox's like the bloody plague. Total wankers

Awful service, unprofessional behaviour and lies

Crawley office. Communication 0 Professionalism 0 Honesty 0 It all started when Jack Allsobrook came to value our property. He was full of it. Told us that he had a few interested people for our property and could expect viewing right away. No viewings in the first month. Little wonder, when they do not answer the phone. Then came the recommendation to lower the asking price. So we took £15k off the price. We got one viewing in the second month. I called the office and eventually got through on 8 July because I’d not received a marketing update in over a week. I was told two calls were made 29 June and 02 July. No missed calls on my phone from them. I was repeatedly told the calls were made, we have a log and I repeatedly replied, I was not called I have no missed calls from Fox & Sons. After several back and forward with this, I asked for the branch manager Kane Caulfield to call me to discuss . He called and basically reiterated what his colleague had told me and proceed to argue he was right and I was wrong. Very unprofessional. Very rude and disrespectful. Clearly the training didn’t focus on not arguing with the clients! The upshot of the alleged missed calls was to tell me I’d a viewing. Now why they couldn’t text me as they have done in the past, or call the other person I am selling the house with, beggars understanding. My conclusion is that it was a lie. I’ve now come off the market with Fox & Sons, and I wish I’d read the Trustpilot reviews before I agreed a contract. Utter cowboy outfit and a shining example of the reputation given to estate agents. Now here’s the killer, 13 July, I called in person to the Crawley office to collect my key. I gave my name and after a wait of about 3 minutes the person present my key, handed it to me. I asked, do you not need to see my ID to prove I am the owner? I was told you need to sign a sheet and he went off to get it. Didn’t have it with him. And he never looked at my photograph ID!! I could have been anyone. Zero regard for security. Absolute amateurs and a burglars delight. I cannot stress this enough AVOID FOX & SONS AT ALL COSTS.

A massive thank you to Ian in the Mortgage advice team at the Seaford branch (also supporting in Peacehaven too)! Ian has been incredibly helpful from start to finish and has made the process easy from the get go. He has been very knowledgable and took time to explain the process clearly, advise on next steps and put aside time to answer any questions. Ian supported us through the mortgage process, helped with budgeting and also gave helpful advice on insurances. We’re extremely grateful for Ian’s support. Thanks Ian!

Awful mortgage advising service

Booked an appointment with one of their mortgage advisers, a lot of info i did not need to know that the company has x branches and have done x money on mortgages, just to be cancel on the second appointment. Got back to me after 4months saying he would help me that time, after a couple exchanges no more correspondence ive no idea whats going on. Meanwhile was contacted by another mortgage adviser she said to give her a change she’s different from her colleague. First appointment same things, second appointment a no show. Whats wrong with you people? Unbelievable. At least have the decency to cancel the appointment, i got out of work for the appointment waited 1h, even emailed and nothing.

Absolutely disgusted at the way this…

Absolutely disgusted at the way this company treated my son and his fiance. They had put a holding deposit on a flat and through no fault of theirs the landlady withdrew the flat and Fox and Sons refused to give them back their holding deposit. They could not afford to lose that money. This is warning to anyone who is thinking of using Fox and Sons

Our experience with Fox & Sons

Our experience with Fox & Sons, Scarlet E Hepburn, was outstanding. From start to finish, the service was professional and attentive. The staff member who assisted us was exceptionally kind and helpful. She negotiated with the landlord on our behalf and made sure all the facilities we requested were arranged promptly and without issue. Her guidance made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Overall, we are very satisfied with the service and glad we chose Fox & Sons. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy estate agency.

No show viewing

Viewing booked and confirmed by George, but no one turned up. I had to call repeatedly to get an answer, only to be told a manager had “tried to contact me to cancel”, which is untrue as I had no missed calls or messages. I was promised a call to rearrange the viewing for the following week and never heard anything. Called again and was assured someone would call me shortly. Two weeks later, nothing. I’ve since submitted a formal complaint and haven’t even received an acknowledgement. Wasted my time attending a viewing that was never going ahead, followed by more time chasing. Poor organisation and even worse communication.

Harassment!

Stupidly agreed to a free valuation with no pressure however after deciding we wouldn’t be selling for a while and telling them that, I’ve had call after call from both the Crawley office and another local office. I emailed them to ask that my details be removed from their systems which was acknowledged however the calls continued. I answered one of the calls and again explained I’m not moving and to remove me from their list. They apologised and said they would update their records…..still calls! I got a call yesterday again asking if I wanted an updated valuation. I declined. Yet I’ve been called again today. I will be blocking them if I get called again as it’s bordering harassment now. It’s actually off putting and now, even if I did decide to put my house on the market, it wouldn’t be with fox and sons.

disinterested and inexperienced

Initial contact with the company seemed ok receiving emails and texts for the upcoming valuation. However the RE agent seemed inexperienced totally disinterested, didn't seem to have much idea about valuing a property other than going on line to look at other properties in the area - something I'd already done. Worst of all she never followed through with providing the valuation information as part of the follow up. I would definitely not use Fox & sons to sell my property given this experience.
