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.

Zoe and Byron were both great to work with at the different stages of our search and purchase. Zoe specifically went above and beyond on completion day for us, and Byron was very helpful in the early stages of our search. We would definitely recommend 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.

Our experience with fox and sons from start to finish was nothing short of great. From the initial viewings with Byron and his dealings with the vendor to get the offer accepted, through to our completion process with Zoe and picking up the keys from Ben. We were always kept in the loop and informed with the latest status of the sale. If and when we decide to sell, our first port of call will be fox and sons.

Finally in my flat thanks to Shayla

Finally in my flat thanks to Shayla. She has been amazing & was totally on top of everything despite the lousy solicitors & me hounding her all the time. Thank you Shayla & the rest of the team, you are all stars 🌟

Never touch these people with a barge…

Never touch these people with a barge pole! I’ve never in my life had such a bad experience with an estate agent and that’s saying something! Major pressure tactics to get you to spend more, refusal to return deposit, which thankfully they are so dodgy that tgey do not have a bank account and you need to pay by card! Always remember you can do a charge bsck bua your bank and you get your money back! The excuses I heard to hold onto your money! I think this may be hiw these guys get paid! Anyway rubbish service, rubbish people and steer well clear of these cowboys! Sequence homes are part of this group so steer clear of them as well.

Not received my deposit back

Little to no communication, gave more than 3 months notice to be told they would be in touch and heard nothing more. My son vacated the property and a month later has not received my deposit or heard anything. They are not answering the phones or responding to emails. Awful customer service. Find a different estate agents

Unprofessional Demeanor

The Crawley team, particularly Branch Manager Kane Caulfield, displayed unprofessional, rude, and disrespectful behavior.They wasted our time by not responding promptly to our inquiries, forcing us to follow up continuously for weeks, both regarding our initial offer and when the property came back on the market.When we decided not to proceed with the offer, Kane Caulfield began speaking to us in a rude and unprofessional manner.We kindly request that take appropriate action regarding the Branch Manager's behavior.

Extremely poor contact

Impossible to get a hold of them by phone or email. Couldn't get them to contact the potential landlord to sign the tenancy agreement until 7 days after the agreed move in date at which point tried to increase the rent from £1000pcm to £1300pcm. I didn't accept it and tried contacting them for over 2 months to return my deposit and they only started replying to my emails after I threatened legal action if they didn't return my deposit. Still waited until the day before I said I would take action before returning my money. I wouldn't ever look at a house managed by this company ever again and I should have called everything off once I saw how difficult it was to get replies even before signing anything

Fox and Sons Peacehaven

Slammed the phone down on my father when he was enquiring about a Peacehaven bungalow and was asked if his property was on the market. When he said "Not yet" the agent simply hung up. Serious buyer turned away by this agency. Would reconsider if you are thinking of listing your property with them.

We sold our property through Fox and Sons at Haywards Heath. They were a tremendous crew from the beginning to the end. They gave us really helpful information all the way through the process and kept us updated throughout. Really nice people and always available for any queries. Thank you all so much for your help.

I purchased a property on the Lindfield/Haywards Heath boundary and was showed around by Byron. Byron was polite and professional and helped through the negotiations. I would use Fox and Sons again for any future purchase

I recently sold my property through Fox and Sons, and I couldn't be happier. From the very first consultation to the final closing, the entire process was smooth, efficient, and fast. The team demonstrated exceptional market knowledge, clear communication, and a proactive approach that made everything feel effortless.

I have dealt with a few letting agents…

I have dealt with a few letting agents over the years and I must say, Fox And Sons rate very highly for me.The application process went very smoothly, with constant communication and updates throughout, particular kudos to Oskar who has been my main point of contact throughout,All that you ask for during a process like this is to be kept in the loop, something that Oskar and his team have managed very well.Thankyou

Exceptional service, Yushin was brilliant!

We received exceptional service from Fox & Sons. Our agent Yushin was brilliant. He found some really nice properties matching our criteria that we hadn’t noticed ourselves, and he booked us in to view them within a couple of days. He offered great service, info, and knowledge during the viewings and followed up quickly with answers to our questions afterwards.

Lacking in customer service for neurodiversity

I've recently started looking for a property to buy. Being neurodivergent, I have requested all correspondence be via email from all letting agents, so i can orgabise and manage a very overwhelming process. Unfortunately, Fox and Sons (brighton) seemed to have an issue with this and even so I repeatedly requested email correspondence, I was told that 'phone calls would be easier for both of us'.

I recently wanted to rent my flat in Haywards Heath. Olivia found the right applicant within a week and completed the transaction within 2-3 weeks . Although she was away for the completion everything was in place for a smooth handover. Olivia has excellent communication skills and was a pleasure to deal with.

The Esperance viewing

Lauren showed me around The Esperance. She was very knowledgeable and answered all my questions to a high level and gave me a good understanding on the points I wanted to know. She also pointed out and took me to visit nearby similar properties for comparison and other options. Very helpful and thank you!
