The Trusted Agent SellerExpert all round
I chose Breckon and Breckon to sell my house in East Oxford and switched from the agents from whom I had bought it on account of the very professional and honest first impression I had of George. First impressions were reinforced when I met Robyn and Jenny. An excellent sales price was quickly achieved and together they managed to deliver a stress-free sale of my property even when the first buyer unexpectedly pulled out ( I accepted a new offer within days and relied entirely on George's advice on negotiation).
The team's personal commitment to high service to both seller and buyer was amazing. Energy levels were always positive and high and communication excellent. Robyn and George even dealt with last minute issues for me the week before completion when I was away on holiday (e.g. having the front door lock fixed).
A nice bottle of champagne is on its way to George, Robyn and Jenny as a big thank you and is well deserved!

The Trusted Agent SellerFantastic all-round service
I have used Beckon and Breckon twice now over the course of seven years - and both times I could not have wanted for a better service in all aspects - communications-wise, the way they presented both properties on-line/ in the brochure, local media, and to prospective buyers, as well as the way they conducted viewings. They were both friendly and professional. And to top it all, on both occasions we got a fantastic price for our properties; and all parties were happy - both ourselves and our buyers. I would definitely recommend Breckon and Breckon! Thanks in particular to Jenny, Julie and George - great team!

The Trusted Agent BuyerDecent, kind and understanding - rare estate agents!
Breckon and Breckon saved my sanity during my 6-month property search in Central Oxford. The entire team - even those I hadn't met! - were consistently well-informed about the properties I was seeing, could tell me the next steps or the likely position, and offered advice, support and sheer encouragement during what was a stressful and often frustrating process.. I know I wouldn't have got my house without their help and support, While other agents were neither constructive or transparent, Breckon and Breckon acted with decency and honesty throughout the whole process. I really quite miss Julie and George now I don't have to traipse round town with them three times a week!

Breckon and Breckon have been fantastic throughout the sale of our house from the initial meeting to recently exchanging contracts.

We can't rate them highly enough and value their clear understanding of the market and the people they work with.

The Trusted Agent SellerThoughtful, friendly and experienced
Selling a house in a more difficult market requires more thought and empathy than when the market is running 'hot'. Breckon & Breckon were able to pitch the price and offer sensible practical advice as to how best to market the property. Photographs and descriptions were very good and our comments were listened to closely. Things moved speedily but without rush. When it became clear that the market had 'turned' and a price reduction was required this was negotiated calmly and logically. Adjustments made to the presentation of the property and photographs were also changed online . We were aware that Breckon & Breckon were also considering the needs of the purchasers as well as ourselves, the vendors, and were looking to provide a good match. The experience was there to provide reassurance and to urge patience - which in the end has provided an excellent result. Selling a house is inevitably a stressful experience, but the positive, friendly approach by all the staff from the secretary to the manager has made it easier. We look forward to a successful completion now we have exchanged contracts and most of the hard work by the agent has been done. Thank you Breckon & Breckon.

The Trusted Agent SellerSuccessful selling of house while in probate
Not living in Oxford it was difficult for me to be at the house for the activities required prior to completion.
Breckon and Breckon and Jenny Bell were excellent in selling the house and in covering activities such as:
- Being onsite for all viewings
- Arranging for auction house to evaluate potential items they could sell on our behalf
- Arranging and being onsite for charities to take items
- Arranging and being onsite for the final house clearance,
- Completing the final meter readings on day of completion
I would recommend Breckon and Breckon as an estate agent for selling houses

The Trusted Agent SellerExceptional service from the Breckon & Breckon Oxford City Centre team
We recently decided to sell our house in Oxford with Breckon and Breckon. We did not hesitate in our choice based on previous personal experience and on perceptions of market performance around us. The honest, realistic and yet ambitious approach of the Breckon and Breckon City Centre Office ensured the sale process was smooth and successful. The team led by Jenny simply took efficiency, communication and support to another level. The power of Jenny's knowledge, experience and ability to create the right circumstances for an optimum sale gave us a result which went far beyond our expectation. The level of warm engagement and determined commitment shown by George, Robyn and Julie was second to none. Breckon and Breckon has a well deserved reputation for efficiency and results but what makes them unique is that their service is based on integrity and "people-first". The Oxford City Centre Office team is truly representative of this philosophy. They have our deep appreciation and admiration.

The Trusted Agent SellerExcellent Customer Service on Recent Sale
An excellent service from start to finish from Jenny and Julie on the sale of our property. We have known Jenny for years and based on the experience of previous sales we have returned our business. The key areas which have made a difference to us have been the market knowledge, experience, communication, honesty and lastly patience to ensure a smooth transition. We secured a good price for our property in a challenging market, whilst other houses marketed nearby at the same time still haven't sold.......

Jenny and Julie helped make selling our house as painless as it could ever be and got us a very good price at the same time. They were always available and in contact when needed and were genuinely interested in doing their best for us. Their long-standing knowledge of the local market gave us complete confidence in their advice throughout.. We will go straight to B&B next time we need to sell and would recommend them to others.

Local knowledge property is crucial for valuations and Jenny at Breckon & Breckon pitched ours just right with a price at the top end of our expectations with an honest appraisal of the house and the state of the market.
Viewings were handled efficiently and knowledgeably by the team and within two weeks the house sold for the asking price. Everything progressed to completion without a hitch. What more could you ask for?

The Trusted Agent SellerCompetent and professional estate agent
It was the second time I interacted closely with this agency. The first time was a few years as a buyer, and this time I was selling the house through them. In both circumstances, the persons in the agency acted in a very professional way. In the sale of my house, they found a buyer even before having the house officially put on the market. Even if the buyer withdrew for his own reasons, B&B found a second buyer within days, and this time the sale went through. At all time the interaction with B&B was pleasant and professional.
I wholeheartedly recommend this agency

We purchased a house through Breckon & Breckon in 2013, and we so impressed with their service that we decided to use them for our sale in 2015. During both types of transaction, they were always up to speed with the latest from other parties involved (buyers, vendors, solicitors etc) and were always available by email or telephone should we require them.
We will definitely use Breckon and Breckon in the future and I would recommend their services to anyone.

The Trusted Agent SellerDon't just look at the price
Comparing local agents based on valuation is like comparing apples and pears. My experience (having used other agents) has been that you need the experience, local knowledge and professional of B&B. I was selling through B&B and used their know-how to guide me through a very difficult purchase as well as their advice about the prospects of interested buyers to complete the sale.
As if good all this plus fantastic communication and help with removals wasn't enough, they also helped me with advice on conveyancing, administrative details and practical assistance with my sale which was due to divorce. Expert intermediary help with the 2 parties.
