GoogleDurden and Hunt acted on our behalf on the sale of our house. They were great from the very start generating a lot of interest in the property and getting us numerous offers within a few days of the property going on the market and then being of great help throughout the legal conveyancing. James and the other guys at the Ongar branch did a great job and we would highly recommend their services.

GoogleWe found Durden & Hunt in Ongar provided us with an all round professional service from beginning to end. We were selling our mother's home so it was a difficult and emotional time for us both. James and Grace treated us with respect and kindness and their communication was exceptional. Having sold the property very quickly, after 15 viewings, Amanda picked up the rains to pull the sale together. We had total confidence in her knowledge and ability which was proven taking only 5 weeks from agreement of sale to exchange of contracts. What a great team! Thank you

GoogleFrom the first time James arrived to view our property we knew we had chosen the best agent. He personally did the viewings and secured us a buyer in 2 weeks. Brilliant. Then Amanda Schiavi took over the batton and with great care enthusiasm got us over the finish line in super quick time. A big thankyou to you guys and would definitely recommend the whole team at Duden Ongar

GoogleWe have had the pleasure of working with Durden & Hunt for around 4 years now. They are the friendliest, most professional & honest estate agents we have ever worked with. Their forward thinking approach completely separates them from the competition.. These guys truly are at the forefront of modern estate agency, they move with the times, & deliver un-matched results within the industry. I could not recommend them enough!!

GoogleDurden & Hunt are exceptional estate agents . We were looked after by James Gibbon who managed our sale from start to finish with professionalism and care . No request was too small or too large for him to deal with. Our buyers even commented to me how good our agent was. Currently I’m never moving again , however if we ever do we would definitely be contacting James first !

GoogleI’m writing of my experience with Durden and Hunt who have recently ‘attempted’ to sell my property. My ex partner decided to list our property with Durden and Hunt back in March, they came round and took photos and the house was listed on Rightmove. As a co-owner of the property I would have expected to have been sent a contract, made to sign a contract and agree to a companies Terms of Business before listing the house and as a minimum, been made aware of any viewings and/or feedback as a result of this. Despite numerous phone calls into Durden and Hunt, I only started receiving communication on the 6th October when I again queried for any updates. Prior to this I was only receiving feedback from my ex-partner. It appears they only felt it necessary to speak to him and I have been made to feel like a second class citizen. I was even in the property for one of the viewings and the Estate Agent didn’t even know my name. I’m not sure if it’s some sort of prejudice against women, or just incompetence but I have been made to feel less important than my ex in the process of trying to sell our house. All in all I have come away feeling extremely disappointed with the service the had provided.
