GoogleWe can not thank Marcus and Amanda enough for all of their help, without them we would not be living in our beautiful new home. When we hit complications Marcus was on hand to help and advice and he truly saved the day! Throughout the whole process everything was explained clearly which made it a little bit easier being first time buyers. We are now in our very first home and it's all thanks to these two!

GoogleI purchased a CG Fry & Son new-build property on the Nansledan development in Newquay, in 2018/19.
From first contact to handover I can't fault the service provided by Marcus the sales agent.
Marcus was willing and able to meet my unique needs throughout the purchase.
At no point did I feel any undue pressure to proceed, and I believe all information passed to me was a honest and true representation.

GoogleDavid Ball, Newquay, were a total pleasure to deal with. I bought a new build and Marcus dealt with all of my questions and guided me through the process seamlessly. Marcus was incredibly helpful and kind and alleviated any anxieties (buying is a big deal!). He was in fact, critical to my decision to purchase - had it not been for him and his help I would have taken much longer to make my decisions! I would not hesitate to use this team.

GoogleWe bought a C G Fry property at Nansledan, Newquay. Right from the word go Marcus and Amanda were friendly and very helpful. They took us for a number visits to look at the property for measuring up etc.
Even after we moved in they rang to check everything was ok and contacted the site manager to sort out a couple of little problems for us. Great team.

GoogleI recently sold my property through David Ball Agencies. Dean and the team were exceptional from the start to the finish. From the knowledge and expertise provided at the beginning, to being constantly updated throughout the sale. I can see this company prides themselves on professionalism and excellent communication. I would highly recommend David Ball Agencies to all, and would certainly sell/buy from them in the future.

GoogleExcellent service provided by the Newquay office. We mainly dealt with Lily and Sheila who were both very friendly, helpful and informative. Sheila did alot of chasing for us and if it wasn't for all her help, we wouldn't have exchanged and completed when we did.

GoogleReally rushed viewing, hardly had time to put my shoes back on before being hurried out the front door. Applied for the property but they didn’t even bother letting us know that we hadn’t been successful. Awful experience wouldn’t recommend.
EDIT: In response to the reply that our application was successful and they tried to call us several times, this is completely false. We had no missed calls and no voicemails. Surely if you can’t contact someone by phone you would just email them? Load of rubbish.

Hi Mrs Gittens,
Thank you for taking the time to review. We're sorry on this occasion at the viewing you felt rushed, this is not in line with our policy. We allocate a specific time block for each viewing, and we have not received much, if any, feedback about inadequate time allocation in the past.
Regarding the property you viewed we tried contacting you via phone multiple times and left a number of voicemail messages in an effort to inform you that your application had been successful. We held the property for two weeks while we tried to reach you before proceeding with the landlord's next choice.
We apologize that your experience fell short of your expectations, and we understand your frustration however we feel in this instance it would have have been different should you returned our calls. We value your feedback and will use it to improve our processes and communication moving forward.
Kind regards,
Daniel Ball

GoogleThroughout the transaction we were left on the sidelines - we had to constantly chase - the agent only wanted to work with the seller - even telling me at one time that the seller was the one paying them!! They refused to allow us an in person walkthrough (twice) they misled us on the walkthrough via video and stated something which we later found out to be untrue. After delaying the completion for several months they then dictated the completion date without any discussion with us first, We found out this was due to a contingent purchase on a new build (when we were told there was no chain) When we could not meet it due to a pre booked holiday we were threatened with cancellation. We were cash buyers yet it took 4 and a half months from offer acceptance to completion. It would have been nice to have been treated as a customer and bing guided through the minefield of buying a house - instead it was nothing but stress for us. When we accessed the house after completiong they leave you a card paying you a £10.00 M &S voucher once you leave a review

Thank you for taking the time to write this review, we appreciate all feedback as we are always looking to improve our service. We do disagree with the issues in your review, to say we left you on the side-line and did not treat you like a customer when our team member had regular numerous conversations with you (via email at your request), including multiple out of hours to accommodate your different time zone. The fact that the vendors position changed during the sale, due to financial reasons, is not something within our control which we did communicate to you at the earliest possible opportunity. We never refused to allow walk throughs of the property on your behalf, the vendor would not allow us entry on the times you put forward which again is something out of our control. Regarding the completion date, the “threat” of cancellation came from the vendors ongoing purchase, which is not something either of us could exert influence over. We hope you love your new property and enjoyed the bottle of bubbles welcoming you to the area and your new home.
Kind regards, Daniel Ball

GoogleDan at David Ball was the main agent I dealt with. From the property viewing at the beginning of the process all the way through to completion, he was there helping me navigate and answer questions. I felt like we were a team in driving the sale and he was always contactable or returned a call when I needed some help. Really great service and I would use if we ever decide to sell as well. Thanks Dan!
