TrustpilotIt's a great pre-sale experience provided by Joseph
I'd like to take this opportunity to keep a note of the pre-sale experience I had with Joseph Grant at the Sales Department. He has been really helpful, polite and very promptful in terms of answering my various sorts of questions to get onto the property ladder. I wish him all the very best!Besides, it's a poor after-sales experience from Catalyst. Not just me, even others feel the same way as me. We submitted a snag report of the defects we have found in our new home. Unfortunately, none of them were looked at as of today.

TrustpilotBeing first time buyers at Thorn road
Being first time buyers, we didn’t know what to expect. We saw our dream home and instantly fell In love with it. We had Joseph grant from the sales team at thorn road development from the beginning till end, he explained every step. Even the little details in between. I would recommend catalyst to family and friends as this honestly was a great experience!! Not just as a company but the team really went above and beyond even after we have moved in we are still able to ask little questions here and there without no issue. So from Eb and Sam thank you for making our experience brilliant and giving us our dream home!!

TrustpilotTerrible experience
Terrible experience from start to finish. All but one of the people I dealt with were cocky, rude sales people who don’t have any empathy for first time buyers. No organisation, resulting in being sold a floor plan which didn’t actually exist on the floor I was buying. Resulted in me pulling out of the sale. Found out after I’d given them all my details and paid reservation fee that they’d not followed any of the correct data procedures and completely missed out my consent forms.

TrustpilotOverpriced, disorganised, and utterly incompetent, avoid Peabody
Do not buy a house through this company, because when you come to sell you will regret it.

Hi Leighjmp,
We’re sorry to hear about your experience and understand how frustrating delays can be during the home-selling process.
We have reviewed your case and understand that you were given the opportunity to sell on the open market with an estate agent but opted to sell through Peabody which has now successfully completed with communication meeting our agreed SLA's.
Our team is committed to continuous improvement and resolving these issues as quickly as possible whilst keeping communication clear along the way. For further support on your case, please contact us directly at postsales@peabody.org.uk.

TrustpilotOutstanding experience
We are in the process of buying our first home within Newman place, we have had Charli and Laura looking after us and they have been fantastic! They have taken all our stress away and made the process throughly exciting and enjoyable. They have been so kind throughout, but not only that they’ve been able to answer all of our questions and reply to our emails so quickly which has made this process smooth and prompt. Seeing as it’s our first purchase at the start we felt lost and had no idea what we were doing, but these ladies explained the process in a way we could fully understand. We couldn’t be happier with our beautiful home and can’t wait to get in! Thank you ladies for helping us!

We have purchased a property very recently and before purchase we were happy with Catalyst and how they allowed an extension on a housing deadline due to circumstances out of our control. Since moving in this has been used as a bargaining chip for the countless physical and service issues around the house (broken oven, bathroom sink and other things) more or less to say you gave us an issue so accept these issues.Through loss of income for having to stay home for their tradesmen to come in and fix a problem that should have been fixed BEFORE they took my large deposit, upon complaining and at the request of financial relief due to loss of income and was met with “we extended your deadline before you purchased so we’ve already done you a favour”(not a direct quote but their attitude summarised) obviously under the thought process they are the only available property in England and have helped me massively by taking my many thousands of pounds a few weeks later.The extra time spent extending my deadline could have been used to get the house ready for me but it seems money was at the forefront of their thinking and preparing the property wasn’t even on the agenda. More upset with the attitude than the issues and wanted to share for future customers awareness, thanks for the read.

Having recently purchased my first home through Catalyst I can honestly say that it was a smooth and easy process. Steve Puxley was a great help from start to finish, always ensuring that I was kept up to date on the process and there to answer any queries in a timely fashion. Sylvana was a lso entreat help and both ensured that the completion was achieved with minimal stress in a tight time frame.

TrustpilotUtter incompetence on all levels!
Having purchased a property from these charlatans at a premium, instead of getting a: “carefully constructed exclusive property that blends timeless design with the best of modern living”, we find ourselves in a property constructed out of cheapest materials available on the market and riddled with endless array of issues (current one ongoing for over a year with no end in sight).My reply to Catalyst:Thank you for your invitation to contact the “social” team @ social@chgorguk. However, as this matter is already being dealt by your MD JM with full awareness from exec member PJ, who have both displayed a complete lack of urgency and whose current goal is to avoid accountability and to pass on all liabilities associated with the shoddy construction practices, the purpose of my review was to make the wider public aware of the potential issues they may encounter if they choose to engage with Catalyst. P.s. a copy of this statement will be emailed your above mentioned inbox. Regards,Viktor
