We were extremely relieved that we didn't have to do much ourselves during the process of selling our house with Springbok. It made our lives a lot easier during a difficult time, taking away the added stress of dealing with a property sale. I would have liked more communication from Springbok, with regards to feedback from house viewings and next steps along the way but we did get information and support from them when we enquired. We are pleased with the service Springbok has provided us so far.

TrustpilotWell done Hamish
Our whole process with Springbok lasted from May to the beginning of August just over 2 months and we had sold and moved. Much of this was down to Hamish who kept us in the loop and chased things down for us when needed. A stress free way to sell your house, we got the price we wanted with no solicitors fees or estate agents fees ( they are paid by Springbok from the money they make on the sale).Would I use them again Absolutely and I would be delighted to get Hamish as my after sale expert.

TrustpilotAvoid at all costs!
Avoid at all costs!My experience has been horrendous!The initial conversation was with a nice guy called Sam who explained if someone makes an offer on your property, they have to pay a £5000 non-refundable deposit which is split between the agent and the seller should the buyer pull out. This was later revealed to be £2500. The salesman I dealt with (Craig) was at best pushy and arrogant, he rarely returned my calls and spoke to me with what can only be described as disdain. You are tied into a ten week contract but what wasn’t explained to me was that you have to give a four week notice period so technically you have to give your notice at the six week mark if you wish to put your property with another agent. I was pressured (bullied) to take a ridiculously low offer on my property by an agent who knew nothing about the local housing market (I’m based in Essex, they in Manchester)The seller has to conduct all viewings themselves, when I informed Craig that I was going to put my property with a local agent as they had assured me I would get at least £25k more than Springbok were pressuring me to take, I was told by Craig that the local agents were “lying”Overall, a very negative and stressful experience and one that I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy.

Dear Kelly, thank you for sharing your comments and we apologise that your experience with us has been a negative and stressful one. We would like to clarify that, our buyer exclusivity scheme which allows buyers to enter into an agreement with our sellers, is available at two different amounts. We do have a threshold aligned with our property prices which determine which reservation deposit a buyer will pay. In regards to the notice period, we understand that this can be somewhat confusing - This is an industry standard protocol for a variety of reasons. You are correct in saying that if you wanted your property to be removed on a specific date, the notice would need to be served on a date that matches up with that date. In terms of viewings, we do have an option available that allows sellers to provide their keys to our viewing agent to do viewings for them, we apologise if this was not made clear to you. We also apologise if the communication with your sales negotiator felt blunt - We do believe that this was to provide you with information in your best interest, that if the property could achieve that high a price we would have been able to achieve that price. We do hope that you are able to move forward from this chapter very soon, and would like to wish you the very best. Best regards, Springbok Customer Services

TrustpilotAvoid like the plague
Avoid like the plague. I have just given my 4 week notice. The lady says she has passed my email to the relevant department, but I've heard nothing more. The 'sales negotiator' has still been trying to call me. He needs to be monitored as he is viscous. He spoke to me as if I was stupid, not appreciated at all. They came nowhere near the price they promised, from what I've read here it suggests that they had received a high offer but were trying to pocket the difference. Whatever they tell you don't believe them. I'm going to do the house up myself, springbok can go to hell. Have you got telephone monitoring? Just listen to our exchanges. 5/9/2024 ******* I know you read these things, but unfortunately seem to be unable to react to the content of an email or letter. PLEASE can you stop calling me. I am really stressed over this matter and have asked that you only contact me by email. What more do I need to do?

TrustpilotAVOID THIS COMPANY.
AVOID THIS COMPANY.The worst experience I've ever had with a business. They have not done as advertised and breached their contract with me.After outright lies and manipulation from their sales negotiator, where I was told there wasn't any further interest in the property, I was pushed into accepting a lesser offer. After being pushed into this on the phone by their negotiator, I was then sent an email intended for the buyer, revealing the intentional deceit. When I contacted Springbok, I was then spoken to aggressively by the same negotiator and talked down to.I followed Springbok's formal complaints procedure, and after almost 2 months they have declined to acknowledge or reply to my complaint.The stress this company have caused for myself and family is immeasurable.It is now in hand with the property ombudsman.After misplacing the original due to moving, I have requested a copy of my contract on several emails and phonecalls, only to be denied or told they don't send contracts out which is yet another lie.However appealing their sales pitch may seem, run a mile.

Dear Rachael, thank you for sharing your comments and we are sorry to hear that you have been left feeling dissatisfied following your experience with us. It is concerning to learn that you believe there has been a breach of contract - Although we do not offer any guarantees or promises in any aspect of our contract, we would still be grateful to know in what way you believe this is, so that we can assist and take any necessary measures. It is challenging to address personal situations on review platforms, although we can comment that we would typically make a price adjustment with your agreement, if there was not sufficient interest already. In terms of the complaints procedure not being followed, we would like to be able to check for any emails you may have sent to us, to be able to address these with you (if they have not been already), as we have only been able to search with your first name as posted with this review, which is difficult to narrow down without your surname or email address. If you are able to email us at customerservicemanager@springbokgroup.co.uk we will be able to check this for you, and so that we can send you an email with your contract, as we certainly can email this across. We are authorised and regulated by The Property Ombudsman and will liaise with them regarding your case as and when we receive correspondence. In the meantime, please do not hesitate to contact us and we're once again sorry that your experience with us has not been positive. Best regards, Springbok Customer Services

Thoroughly disappointed with my experience of trying to sell my property with Springbok. The buyer didn't pay a deposit (as per their own terms and conditions) So when he couldn't get a mortgage after weeks of me waiting, I was left out of pocket, with a £300 bill from their solicitor. I have asked for an explanation but have yet to receive one! They would have made a £13k profit from the sale!!

Agent replied · 23 December 2024
Dear Della, thank you for sharing your feedback. We were sorry to hear that your experience with us has fallen short of expectations. The details of how our arrangement works are fully outlined in the contract, and we always strive to guide our customers through any uncertainties or challenges that may arise during the process. While occasional setbacks are an unfortunate reality in property, we are always open and willing to support customers through any uncertainties when things don't go as planned. Regarding the deposit, you are correct that we encourage buyers to participate in our reservation deposit scheme, as it provides security for all parties involved. However, we are not able to force this if a buyer chose not to proceed with it, despite the clear benefits it offers to both sides of the transaction. We hope this explanation provides some clarity. Best regards, Springbok Customer Services

TrustpilotThey will charge you fees
I was selling a property for a discounted market value price for a quick sale. 6 MONTHS LATER I decided to leave and put it on with a 'normal' estate agent for the market value. Springbox are now saying I need to pay fees because I decided to go with someone else. This is disgusting as they did not live up to their part of the bargain, which was a quick sale. I should not be expected to pay any fees.

Dear Sally, thank you for your feedback.

Dear Alasdair, we are sorry to learn that your experience with us has not been a positive one. Although it can be difficult to comment on such individual circumstances on platforms such as this one, we can provide some clarification around the concerns you have noted. We can see that there were 2 price adjustments during your time with us, to proactively bring new interest through for the property, please be assured that it is certainly not to increase our remuneration, as we had not achieved a sale throughout this time, what you're describing isn't something that could have happened in this situation. We are sorry for any disruptions with viewings and trouble contacting us, we'll look further into this internally to ensure our standards are being met, and action any changes if required. Overall, we too are disappointed that the property did not achieve a sale, and are sorry that it did not materialise the way that we had anticipated. It is counterproductive for us to offer our services to any customer who we do not believe that we can help, given that we do not charge any selling fees, and we can understand the inconvenience and trouble that not achieving that sale could have caused you. Unfortunately, as with any property entering the market, there is no guarantee that it is going to sell - Though please be assured that we have reviewed the file and can comment that we did go to every effort to reach a point of sale. We would like to wish you all the best. Warmest regards, Springbok Customer Services

TrustpilotDon’t bother with this company !
Don’t bother with this company ! I went with springbok for a quick sale . They offered me £50, thousand less than what it was originally up for sale for with an estate agent, I did agree as my father had to go into a care home and this was to pay for his care. So I agreed on £370.000 only to discover they actually sold the property for £385.000 ! Also they advertise no fees but be prepared to pay the solicitor for searches. The property sold quite quickly and the buyer was purchasing it through a bridging loan. I thought “happy days “ this should have only taken at the very most 1 month .. how wrong was I .. after a couple of weeks the purchaser then decided she was going to buy with the proceeds of her house which she had just received an offer on !! Becci who was my contact at springbok told me this development but I was never asked if this was ok ! Springbok had already taken a deposit from the buyer which then gave her 56 working days to complete !!! It took all of that time with me constantly on the phone to either springbok or the solicitor to check the progress and to keep pushing for an exchange date !! I wished I had just reduced the price with the original estate agent as I would have come out of this with a better price .. I could go on …..but don’t be fooled by their sales pitch if you can just stick with your estate agent and reduce your price … one other point is where they are located there is no face to face meeting unless you are lucky enough to live in that part of the country so everything is done via email or post ( which once again you are charged postage) and when sending documents you have to send recorded delivery for safety it cost you a lot of money Mrs Read

Dear Mrs Read, thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We genuinely appreciate your feedback and are sorry to hear that your expectations were not met during the sale of your property. We’d like to address a few points you raised. The final price that you would receive, and how your agreement type works is explained through the contract and in early stages of considering our services. You are correct in saying that there were no selling fees, and standard solicitors costs were included too, although this is not inclusive of searches, which is also detailed in your contract. Regarding the change from a bridging loan to a cash purchase, we acknowledge that this development could have caused concern. We were informed that the buyer was initially considering a bridging loan but later decided to proceed with cash from the sale of her property. As soon as we were made aware of this change, we communicated it to you. We strive to keep our clients informed of all developments including that of timeframe adjustments, which in the industry are very common, most of the time outside of estate agent's control unfortunately. We can see that your sale did complete within 8 weeks, which is well below the national average in terms of speed and timescales. As we are a nation-wide, online sale agency, we do not have offices for customers to visit, though we do provide thorough support through phone, email, and post. Once again, thank you for your feedback, and we wish you all the best in the future. Best regards, Springbok Customer Services
