Ray and Emma were absolutely amazing in both helping us find our perfect home and in turn selling ours. The photos they took were very professional and the house was marketed beautifully. Due to their excellent local knowledge they actually sold our house pre-marketing which was a huge relief. The rest of the sale process went very smoothly with Emma’s expertise and passion driving out solicitors to arrange the exchange and completion. Most importantly they were there by our sides every step of the way, keeping us as stress-free as possible and really supporting us through it all. We are so grateful to have used them as our agents, thank you both!

Horts review

I can’t recommend Emma and Ray at Horts highly enough. From start to finish, they made what could have been a very stressful process feel so much easier. They kept me updated every step of the way, were always on hand to answer any questions, and nothing ever seemed too much trouble. Their communication was excellent, and I always felt informed and supported throughout the whole process. Emma and Ray were professional, friendly, and genuinely cared about making everything go as smoothly as possible. Thank you both for all your hard work, I really appreciate everything you did to help me with my first home. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Horts to anyone looking for an estate agent.

We both sold our home and bought our new one through Horts, and Emma and Ray were fantastic throughout. House moves can be stressful and drawn out, but they were always supportive, proactive, and really professional from start to finish. They kept things moving, stayed positive, and made a tough process much easier. Would definitely recommend them and the Horts team!

I just want to say a massive thank you to Emma and Ray. Emma was fantastic in helping me buy my new home and I wouldn’t have been able to do it with out her, Emma kept in constant contact with me keeping me updated on everything from when I put my offer in to the day I got the keys. Thank you so much 😊 …

We’ve now sold two properties for elderly relatives over the last year, both using Chris Stone, and have been really pleased with the outcome. The first was very straightforward, no chain. The second, not so, in a longish chain which caused a few issues, but not the fault of Horts. Chris secured us a fair price on both properties, and was very communicative and helpful through the whole process. The first went through from offer to completion in 8 weeks and the second 13 weeks. Not too bad. When we were getting frustrated on the second sale Chris was very good at finding what the holdups were in the chain and was honest about it. I would recommend Chris at Horts. Ps also his photos are brilliant.

A challenging move steered home. With a very long chain and complicated conveyancing process, Emma & Ray kept us updated on a weekly basis, advising on all of the issues with the chain and helped steer the completion home. We highly recommend Horts.

I would thoroughly recommend Emma & Ray Jacobs of Horts Estate Agents. Can’t fault them. Emma was amazing throughout the whole process. Once the property had sold Emma kept me informed with regular updates on the progress of each of the properties in the chain, not just the progress of my buyers but everyone above and below. When progress was slowing, Emma chased the relevant parties to keep the chain moving. They certainly earned their fee. Thank you Emma and Ray.

Terrible experience lost money, used the recommeded solicitor they waited until almost completing to send me land searches only to find out the house was built on top a quarry and landfill site. Estate agents called aggressively telling me theres no landfill or quarry in brixworth it's all lies even though it was all in front of me in writing. Seriously believe they were working with solicitor and seller, as they stated they were unaware even though he also had said he had sold multiple properties on the same road. Be very careful if you choose to buy through horts

A · 14 March 2026

Agent replied · 14 April 2026

I am sorry to hear that you have pulled out of the above purchase, even though both my colleague at Horts and the conveyancers you were using have both sent you comprehensive explanations and documentation regarding the land on which the property is built. The development is some 30 years old, and we have sold many properties there over the years and have never come across any issues. All buyers have the right to pull out of a purchase up until the exchange of contracts, and we respect your decision.

We had an excellent experience with Horts Letting Agency Northampton throughout our tenancy period! Special thanks to Charlotte and Susan for their outstanding support and dedication. Their assistance made everything so much smoother for us. Also, a big shout-out to Anita, who frequently brought viewers to "disturb us" (jk😂) during our notice period, but always in the friendliest way possible! Despite the regular visits, Anita was fantastic at respecting our privacy and convenience. Her approach made the process much more pleasant than we ever expected. Thanks a lot to the entire Horts team for the wonderful service!

We get many thank yous from sellers, buyers and landlords. But the real special ones are from tenants. Without great tenants we haven’t got a Lettings business. So it is wonderful to hear that you found the whole team so friendly and dedicated to what they do. Good luck in your next move.

Avoid this agency.., We had a nightmare which i bought in nn2. When we had a view with this clown STEVE, he told us everything is working fine in this house… it’s nice . We moved in this house ,a week later after we bought and found out the ceiling and the bathroom is leaking… water coming through the bathroom to kitchen. And then i called that clown to told him the house is leaking, the water is dripping to the kitchen, and the answer from that clown is call the plumber not me, is this real.which is very awful and disgusting . Before you buy from these jokers, make sure the house is not leaking. Now the maintenance cost i was quoted is around 9k -11k … ACOID

Nirmal · 14 February 2026

Agent replied · 14 April 2026

Thank you for your review Nirmal. As you were made aware at the time of the purchase, estate agents to do check that a property has issues or mitigate against future problems buyers may encounter when purchasing a second hand home. If we were made aware of any issues by the seller we would be duty bound to pass those on. Your solicitor would have also made you aware that it would be good practice to check items such as heating and electrics but, even by doing this, a leak that starts after you move in would not present itself. We are sorry that you have had a bad experienced but we are not to blame. If you feel we have misled you in anyway then we are members of The Property Ombudsman and would welcome them conducting a full and independent investigation.

We had a great experience with Emma and Ray at Horts

We had a great experience with Emma and Ray at Horts and could not have been happier with the service we received throughout the sale of the property. From the very start they provided a friendly and professional service, with excellent communication and nothing was too much. They were on hand to answer any questions throughout the process. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to sell their property. A great service from a friendly professional team- thank you both for all your hard work. Mel and Dean

I have no reservations recommending Horts Estate Agents. We were selling a probate house and had no awareness of the area or the market. From the minute i met Stuart from Horts i was struck by his pragmatic approach and willingness to listen and guide us. At all points during the sale he has been a cool and calm voice of reason. He shared all information in a timely manner and without doubt the team's efficient and proactive approach ensured that the sale proceeded. In short, Stuart and the Hort's team exceeded our expectations. My experience of them is that they are an excellent estate agents.

Emma was absolutely fantastic helping get the sale through. She kept in contact every week and with any updates as and when they happened. She was patient when needed, and would help with advise when needed on other areas of the sale. I would definitely recommend!

I am truly happy to see the reviews left informing my family and I that this real estate agency is quite lovely. Unfortunately, we had a little conversation with Anita on separate occasions. And she is truly terrible. The tone she uses to speak to my family and I on separate phone calls (as we are all moving to Northampton but different properties) is truly unacceptable. I was told “not to contact agencies that I don’t want to view,” even though I wasn’t the one enquiring about a specific property. If she used the two eyes that was given, she would have seen that the name print was different or have some kind of conversation to ask “is there anyone in your household that could’ve inquired but used your name.” Not to mention, most experienced agents in the UK know that British Overseas Territories- we do not need to inform of our rental overseas. Anita needs a more warming personality as it’s 10am on a Monday. If you are angry and obnoxious there’s no need to take it out on inquiring customers. She lost not 1 but 3 clients Hort’s could’ve had in one day. I do not recommend Anita as a rental agent. Thank you.

A · 28 January 2024

Agent replied · 25 August 2024

I am sorry that you found your experince with a member of my lettings team to be unacceptable. Having spoken to Anita it would appear that the circumstances of your situation were far from clear and Anita struggled to get to the facts. We have to be very careful with imformation gathering and if you found Anita's approach agressive in any way, I appologise.

Stuart Little has been exemplary throughout the recent sale of my house in Brixworth. His advice proved extremely valuable and he delivered on everything he promised, and more. It is refreshing to work with a true professional, and especially one who is also a thoroughly likeable and friendly guy. I have quite high expectations and Stuart exceeded them on every count and I highly recommend his services.

Thank you for your wonderful review, Mike. As I’m sure you’re aware Stuart specialises in Brixworth and the surrounding villages. He is a seasoned Estate Agent and the epitome of our business model, delivering a very personal and professional service to all of his clients. He has built his business on recommendations and referrals from providing this type of service all of his clients.

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Chris Gibson during the purchase of my new home, and I couldn’t be more grateful for his incredible support. Despite the challenges of navigating the process during the busy Christmas period when many services were closed, Chris went above and beyond to ensure everything moved forward smoothly. His professionalism, patience, and belief in me made all the difference. Chris truly made what could have been a stressful experience so much easier with his dedication and expertise. Thanks to him, I was able to secure my new home, and I couldn’t be happier. I highly recommend Chris to anyone looking for exceptional service and unwavering support.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Highly recommend Horts Letting Agency Northampton! They were a lifesaver for my brother and me in our search for the perfect home. After facing rejection from several other agencies in Northampton , Horts stepped in with their non-complicated paperwork and procedures. Susan and Charlotte were absolute gems - friendly, approachable, and always willing to clarify any doubts we had. Their expertise made the entire process smooth and stress-free. We couldn't have asked for better support. Thank you, Horts, for helping us find our dream home and making this experience unforgettable. We're extremely satisfied and grateful for your outstanding service! 🏡😊 #ExcellentService #GratefulClients

Horts have been absolutely fantastic yet again with assisting my family with selling a property. Who ever you happen to speak to in the office is helpful and polite and the images taken and listed of the house we sold were absolutely brilliant. In particular Steve Dodds looked after our buyer so well and the extra mile he went for us was noteworthy. I have also used them to rent out a property and an equally professional and exemplary service was provided. I wouldn’t hesitate in using Horts again and can recommend them highly.

I am usually not one to write reviews but the sheer unprofessionalism from the agent at Horts leaves me with little to no option. We viewed a house we wanted as an investment property. The property was already tenanted and we expressed interest with readiness to put in an offer. We asked Chris Gibson to find out how much the tenants were paying to help us make an informed decision. Days rolled by with no correspondence from Chris and further emails to him were ignored. This was all while the property asking price was being reduced to attract buyers. So it leaves me with no other thought than to think Chris is unprofessional and not worth wasting your time.

Kelvin · 8 March 2023

Agent replied · 6 July 2023

Really , really sorry Kelvin. This is not like Chris at all. He apologies profusely and has tried to call you today to do so in person. We messed up and hold our hands up!!
