GoogleThe team at Starkey & Brown Estate Agents (Lincoln) have yet again been outstanding. Having found ourselves needing to sell our family home, remotely, at the end of a lengthy tenancy, we relied heavily on the estate agent network to value, market and ultimately find a buyer for our property. After a number of lower than expected valuations, we chose to approach Starkey & Brown who we had previously used to sell our first family home 13 years prior.
David Starkey attended our property and reported back promptly with a much higher valuation than any competitor, but most notably, a level of passion and enthusiasm that immediately reminded us why we first chose them all those years ago. The valuation was realistic, with both a market price and a target sale price, provided to us in a manner that gave us confidence that our home would be marketed respectfully and passionately.
The first viewing came in less than a week, immediately followed by a second with a subsequent offer. The team (Ben, Sophie, Anita and Suz) were very communicative throughout all stages of the negotiations and sale and I could not lavish them with any more praise.
I would highly recommend Starkey & Brown to ANYONE looking to sell a house in the Lincolnshire area; they have a personal touch that is now becoming so rare to find in estate agents.
If I could give them more than 5 stars, I would!!
Thank you S&B...

GoogleI have just purchased a house through a Starkey and Brown. It has not been a straight forward purchase but Anita has been absolutely amazing throughout. She explained everything to me and advised me the best she could. She contacted me frequently to update me with information and has always been available when I needed to speak to her. I really appreciate the service and support I was given.

GoogleAnita really made the process easier for us especially with it being an emotional task of selling my mum's house. She was kind, considerate and always kept us updated throughout the journey. I never felt forgotten instead always like a priority. I would highly recommend Starkey & Brown and Anita for the amazing work she does

GoogleI had an exceptional experience with Starkey & Brown. Their professionalism and friendliness were evident throughout the process, and their communication was outstanding. I truly felt that they cared for both their clients and the properties they manage. The thoughtful move-in gift box was a delightful touch that added to the overall excellent service. I highly recommend their services and would not hesitate to use them again, though I hope I won't need to anytime soon! Fantastic job!

GoogleGood morning. Just a big thank you from myself and my wife, for what must be one of the fastest sales ever. Compliments to all the team that had dealings with our sale, Angela was prepared to put her running shoes on to drop some documents at solicitors on our behalf, also gave me some very good advice. Starkey and Brown should be very proud of there team.

GoogleA fantastic estate agent who really gives the impression they care. Angie and Georgi primary were my main contacts and they were so patient and supportive during a slightly drawn out purchase.
Happy to answer queries when ever I asked.
I was the purchaser of the property and i am aware the estate agent is employed by the seller however this did not stop them providing anything less than outstanding customer service.
10/10 recommend.

GoogleThe service was excellent, they sold my property within a few days of the tenant vacating. Anita kept me up to date every week with what was going on which eased my mind a lot. I will most definitely use Starkey's again in the future when we come to sell our house. Would fully recommend them to sell your home efficiently and quickly.

Extremely Unprofessional and Immoral Conduct, A Warning to Fellow Investors
As very experienced property investors, we have dealt with numerous estate agents over the years, but we have never encountered a firm that has acted in such an unprofessional and frankly immoral manner.
After our offer on a property was accepted, the agent continued to allow viewings, without informing us. We submitted our mortgage application the same day and followed up promptly, yet there was no courtesy call, no email, and no transparency.
This kind of behaviour, particularly the allowance of gazumping after an accepted offer, is unacceptable and unethical. It shows a clear disregard for proper business conduct and respect for serious buyers.
We strongly advise others, especially fellow investors, to be extremely cautious when dealing with this firm. This experience will be reported across social media, property investor networks, and review platforms to ensure others are fully informed.
Proceed with great caution.

GoogleI had moved my properties over from one of Lincolns worst agencies to Starkey and Browns . I was impressed with the service , particularly a lovely young man called Ryan . When he left it dipped in quality of service . Anita came along and she is wonderful. There have been mistakes made but until now it was good . Yesterday I get a phone call from the previous awful agency to say Starkey and Brown have sold the letting portfolio to them , including my properties. I had NO notice what so ever . No emails or phone calls. I am in the middle of renting a house out then I find the previous agency have taken it over . I am not happy . I would never use the agency you transferred your lettings too again. Therefore I had no choice but to seek another agent , this meant cancelling viewings through the bad agent and going through relisting it again. Had I known this was planned sooner I would have had time to transfer the properties over sooner . Until now starkeys has been a fairly good agency . Now any respect has been lost .
I am aware staff have been moved also but I refuse to have anything to do with the dreadful agent you passed my house to. I did email Mr Starkey direct 2 weeks ago and so far no reply .

Good morning Elly, We are disappointed to hear that you are unhappy with the current situation with regards to our lettings department moving to another company.
Firstly, may I reassure you that the staff have made the move too, only a few doors down on Silver Street and they will continue to look after you as they always have and therefore there will be no material changes to the service you receive.
Secondly, I am concerned that you have not received any correspondence from Starkey&Brown with regards to the changes - We were sure that ALL of our landlords had been informed.
From your review I am unable to determine which property is yours, therefore could you please email me direct on m.brown@starkeyandbrown.co.uk and I will ensure that this matter is investigated as a matter of urgency.

GoogleHaving recently selling our property with Starkey and Brown we fully recommend their service. Throughout the whole process we felt fully supported, especially from Angie who deals with aftercare. Angie supported us with advice, chasing people up and keeping us updated. Our first chain unfortunately collapsed when our seller pulled out and Angie was so supportive, and spent the time checking in to make sure we were ok. We always felt Angie had our best interests at heart, and have said a few times how using Starkey and Brown was fully worth the money purely for her support. We will certainly be recommended to anyone we know who is looking to sell.PositiveQuality

GoogleSuperb service from start to finish from caring people. Frazer Cobb did a great job of taking full details of the property with good pictures and unlike some other agencies took the time to get to know me and what I wanted to achieve from the sale. Quite clear that the communication within Starkey and Brown is spot on. Whoever I dealt with knew exactly what was happening with the property and the sale. Never had to go over anything just because I was talking to a different member of staff. During the lockdown I dealt with one of the directors, Michael Brown. Obvious that the helpful, professional and friendly mode of working within the company comes from the top. Thanks Michael. Once a sale had been agreed I was dealing with Angie Powell as the sales progressor. What a star. If there are any problems with a sale Angie will sort them. She will do it with a smile too. I'm rather going to miss the update calls now. I know my buyer is of the same opinion about the service we have both received. I did initially have a visit and quote from another local agent. Full of their own self importance and I felt their main aim was getting their percentage as quickly as possible. Felt much more confident in Starkey and Brown and that confidence wasn't misplaced. I achieved a sale price higher than the other agent suggested I should market the property. Just need the lockdown to be over so I can visit the office to thank everyone in person. Can't recommend Starkey & Brown highly enough. Thanks for everything.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

GoogleStarkey and Brown have been amazing in helping me sell my house. From the first time I enquired to finally exchanging keys they have been utterly professional and thorough. Frazer took some great pictures and worked hard to secure an offer that was above my asking price. My solicitors were, quite frankly, hopeless but Angie was amazing. She was chasing up them on my behalf and keeping me informed at every stage. She made a real difference and I'm not sure the house would be sold now without her effortsPositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value
