GoogleVery good experience with Paul and Luke. I was buying and Ardent acted for vendors. Very good experience with both. They kept the whole process going helping to keep solicitors moving in the right direction, particularly the vendors solicitor that were less than professional. Proactive in the process. Want to say a particular thanks to Luke, who whilst new to the industry went out of his way to help reach exchange and completion. Would definately recommend them.

GoogleThanks so much to Paul, Brett and Luke for an excellent service from start to finish during the sale of both our properties. From the initial marketing with excellent photography including drone footage, excellent communication throughout the sales processes and going well beyond their scope at points, the team made the stress of selling houses in the Uk much more bearable and couldn't have been more helpful.

GoogleFrom valuation to completion, Ardent provided a very professional but friendly service that contributed to the smooth transition from old home to new. Communication was easy with Paul, Brett and Luke on hand and working together to respond to any queries as they came up. I have no hesitation in recommending to any prospective sellers.
Many thanks. A Thomas, Woodham Mortimer

GoogleWe were very pleased with the professional, efficient and friendly service we recieved from Paul and Brett Saggs in the selling of our house recently.
As anyone who has moved knows what a stressful time it can be, so nice to have regular contact and reassurance throughout the whole process. Thank you Paul and Brett.

GoogleThe person showing my property gave incorrect information and failed to actually answer some viewers questions. Unfortunately saying to viewers "we can negotiate the price down for you" appeared to be the sales tactic of choice. The final straw was being told "you can have one of your batteries but you have to leave the pergola in the garden OK".

GoogleAfter being on the market for + 6 months with another local agent, we moved to Ardent Estates, who sold our house promptly for a price we’re very happy with.
We can't overstate how polite, professional and knowledgeable they are. We really did our homework when changing agents and couldn't be happier we chose Ardent Estates. We wish we chose them to start with.
They seamlessly managed our sale from negotiation and acceptance of offer, through conveyancing from start to finish. They supported us and also our buyers with the successful completion of our house sale.
Their thoughtful marketing description, use of a great professional photographer, as well as drone photography, made a tangible difference to our listing vs. our previous agent.
Being a true family (father and sons) business, their accountability and personal desire to sell our house and then see that sale through to completion, was a breath of fresh air.
Brett did a brilliant job of introducing us to Ardent Estates, getting our property listed and conducting viewings.
Paul calmly and professionally helped keep all the plates of the conveyancing spinning, overcoming various hurdles, through to completion within 8 weeks. Demonstrating his decades of experience in the industry.
Diligent, relatable family companies like Ardent Estates are the difference between a property actually completing once sold STC, or falling through during conveyancing.
Highly recommended is a massive understatement. Worth every penny. Thank you Ardent Estates.

GoogleWe sold our house through Ardent Estates, and completed almost a week ago now, all thanks to Paul going above and beyond and chasing other parties to ensure that all went through as quickly as it possibly could. We can't thank the team at Ardent enough, and have, and would highly recommend their services to all we know.

GoogleRecommended this estate agency by a friend and they didn't disappoint. Father and son team who work from home which saves the normal office overheads and therefore keeps the commission rate down. Advertised in all the same platforms as the large companies. House sold swiftly, without a fuss and at my asking price.

GoogleArdent Estates were the agents acting for the sellers of the home we've bought recently. For a number of reasons it had the potential to be a complicated transaction but in the end, that side of it went smoothly, thanks in large part to the hard work Paul and Brett put in for us. Highly professional, very knowledgable, easy to work with, always contactable. We're note planning on needing an estate agent in the near future, but if we did, Ardent will be on the short list immediately. Thanks!
