Chancellors Headington New Homes reviews in Oxford

★★★★★ 5/5

When I first considered placing my property on the market I was advised to try an Estate Agent which markets many properties in North Oxford and the Cotswolds. The Agent who came to visit the house ( a 2 bed 4 reception detached house in Heading Quarry) was not encouraging, rather dismissive, and suggested marketing it at a figure well below its valuation five years ago! I was not happy with this approach and invited Chancellors to look at it. When Angela Lessani arrived her attitude was entirely different; it was positive and encouraging and I knew I had got the right person to present the property to potential buyers. From that moment on she dwelt on the positive qualities of the house and succeeded in attracting a number of viewers. I have now sold the house & been deeply impressed by Angela's attitude throughout; always supportive & generous with sensible and practical advice and maintaining her belief in the property and its future. Many thanks Angela for your encouragement which has seen me through an experience which is stressful and can at times seem overwhelming. Well done.

Appalling

Our experience with Chancellors has been profoundly disappointing, defined by a failure to uphold basic professional standards, contractual consistency, or duty of care.

We have just received first class service from the team at Chancellors, and can highly recommend them to anyone wanting to sell in the area. From day 1, James and Ollie have been efficient, polite, helpful and honest with us. Their marketing strategy worked perfectly and our house was sold within 2 weeks of going on the market. They, along with Sebina kept on top of the sale at every stage, keeping us in the loop and liaising with both sets of solicitors, as well as the buyer. We can honestly say we have had a very stress free sale thanks to them. Well and truly earned their money. Couldn't recommend them more highly.

I didn't have a very good experience with letting agencies before. But I'm pleased to say that the service provided to me by Declan Hartigan has been outstanding. If you need to rent a house or flat within the Headington area and you need support, Declan is your man. Go to Chancellors Headington and ask for him. I have been worried for long time, thinking about to get the perfect house for me and my girlfriend, but from the first time I met Declan, everything was much easier. He is a very good profesional, with a good knowledge of the market, very helpful and an easy going person, which I think is key when you are dealing with customers. He was very kind at all times, showing me houses around the area and giving me a very good and honest advise, matching my requirements. I took his advise into account and now we are very happy. Thanks to Chancellors and especially Declan for our new home.

I went to Chancellors in Headington in some trouble. We had already exchanged on our purchase and were getting desperate to sell. Jonathan Seabert and his team - Zamir Wheeler in particular - worked tirelessly to achieve the sale. I have to say they provided excellent service. Jonathan's team worked hard to bring potential buyers to view the property and when an offer was made, Zamir continued to work extremely hard to further the sale - even after he left the firm. Zamir kept us fully updated until exchange - after which Jonathan and Shannon were in constant contact with the other agents and solicitors in the chain to progress and sort out any outstanding issues. I would definitely recommend them to anyone wishing to sell their home in Headington.

Since the beginning I had a great experience with Chancellors! My husband and I found a great place and we received an incredible support from everyone. I am specially greateful to Conor Taylor for replying emails so promptly and phone calls. Thanks to him we found a lovely place! Jamie Marla was the best in speeding up the process, giving correct information and helping out as much as possible all the time (emails, phone calls and calming us down). Jonathan Pincott was generous and supportive in resolving the last issues, so we could finally move. Thanks everyone!

My friend and I were very pleased with the service that we received from Chancellors, we were looking for a 2 bed place, which Joel went the extra mile to help us find. He updated us with properties as soon as they came in, presented excellent communication, so that we were part of the first group of people viewing the properties. Even with challenging customers, he was able to answer all of our questions, and we found that we left the property knowing our decision and that Joel had our best interests at heart. We were are pleased to say that we are now settled in the perfect property that Joel found for us, even though he had some picky clients, I think you have to be, if you plan to stay long term in one place. Honestly we can’t thank Joel enough! We are very happy in our new place.

I am in the early stages of selling with Chancellors. It can be a stressful time, but we have had excellent service so far from Jonathan and his sales team. It has to be said that the paperwork/admin is the real nightmare, here also we have been lucky, Mary-Louise Aitken has been looking after us with the admin, always helpful, cheerful, efficient and supportive, she is also keenly aware of what is happening with the viewings we have had. Great support from the team as a whole so far.

I would like to say a special thank you to Nathan Tan and Victoria Cook who provided fantastic customer service in a process of getting my new home. They both paid great attention to my specific situation and gave useful advice. I felt I could trust you both and you always reacted quickly to any questions or issues I faced. I really appreciate how promptly all the documents were processed which made the whole process enjoyable and trouble-free. I love my new home - you did a great job, Thank You!

We are in the process of buying our first house and dealt with a few estate agents on the beginning before we decided to only go with Chancellors in Headington, the sole reason being Angela Lessani's great passion, knowledge and service. As an experienced estate agent, Angela could see that we were not quite sure what we were looking for as first time buyers, so she drove us around and showed us several properties (different style, location, budget and condition). This experience was invaluable - we felt like on one of those "find a dream home" TV shows. Angela advised us on pros and cons and helped us find our dream home! She goes far beyond her duties, listens to any concerns you might have, understands that house buying is probably one of the biggest decisions, always returns calls, keeps us updated and is even available on weekends. I can only highly recommend Angela!

We have been dealing with Chancellors in Headington for the past six months, and have been extremely pleased with the service they offer. We were first looked after by a lettings agent, Nathan Tan, who found us a flat that matched our requirements exactly in less than two hours. While renting the flat, sales agent Ben Lewington took us on a number of viewings and, after we had found a property that we wanted to buy, guided us through the UK's very complex house purchasing process. Ben was consistently professional, personable and patient, and acted as a very effective go-between with a somewhat difficult vendor. I would recommend him personally, and Chancellors generally, to anyone who is moving to the Oxford area. Thanks guys!

After registering with Chancellors as home buyers, we’ve been contacted by Leo Furnivall who was very friendly, professional and assertive. In spite of working office hours we had the opportunity to visit few properties with him, as Leo is a well-organised individual and a very good communicator. During our meetings we found out that he also has good neighbourhood knowledge, sense of humour and is very helpful. We find his service to be at the top level of what a home buyer can expect from an estate agent. Super ! ‹(•¿•)›

I have recently sold my house through Chancellors in Headington. I found the team to be helpful and professional, steering me through the pitfalls and stresses of house selling. I was particularly impressed with the way my house was marketed and very pleased with the monetary result. I would like to thank Nick Lewis for the professional way he handled the difficulties that can sometimes arise between a seller and buyer. I found him to be diplomatic and honest. Thanks also Nick for listening to my little rants patiently and using appropriate sense of humour to lighten the experience of house selling.

We recently purchased a house through the Headington branch. The process from start to finish was very slick and efficient, and thanks to the quick responses we received from Chancellors we were able to complete the purchase just 6 weeks after the initial viewing. Nick Lewis was most helpful and in regular contact with us throughout the period, his professional and calm manner was key to making our experience successful and stress free. Ten out of ten for great customer service!

Thank you Chancellors, Nick Lewis thank you for all you help during the search for our property. You were patient and highly professional. I felt that you listened to us and contacted us regarding properties that we would be interested in, in the areas that we were interested in. You demonstrated a good knowledge of the areas and housing prices. You did not bombard us with unnecessary contact and came across very well. You always met with us on time and were very punctual and reliable. I will be looking for a buy to let later in the year and will be specifically contacting you to assist me with this. You are a credit to Chancellors estate agents and I hope they realise how much of an asset you are. Many thanks Rick and Lexi

We are in the process of buying and selling with Chancellors Headington and have been massively impressed so far. James Godfrey has been our main contact and has been fantastic. Leo Furnivall has also been excellent and between them have been our dream team. I have never not been able to get hold of either of them and communication is clearly good between them. Nothing has been too much trouble and both are very efficient and friendly, a real credit to Chancellors.

We had a very positive experience with Chancellors. Buying in Oxford was daunting: the fast pace of the market was a real contrast to what we were used to in Sheffield. Nick Lewis helpfully guided us through the process and provided a vital and diplomatic push just when we needed it - we're now happily at home in the property we encouraged us to buy, and without his help we might well have missed out and still be looking. The process was highly professional throughout.

Smooth and Professional Tenancy Renewal

I had a great experience working with Emilia Williams (MARLA) at Chancellors during my tenancy renewal. She was very professional, responsive, and made the whole process smooth and stress-free. Emilia communicated clearly and handled everything efficiently, I really appreciated her friendly and helpful attitude. Highly recommended!

My family and I were new to the country and only had a 2 week let. We had some very specific property requirements and after the first week were quite frustrated and concerned we would not be able to find any suitable property. Fortunately, we came in touch with Callum Lovett at the Headington Office of Chancellors. Callum assured us that he could help us find a property. He was extremely energetic and committed to helping us. He listened and was very respectful of our situation and did not try to hard sell us. Most importantly he was professional and patient. The only time I questioned his judgment was when he agreed to show us a property, postponing a commitment to his girlfriend. We worked with many agents while trying to find a property and Callum was by far the best agent we dealt with. If you need help in lettings call Chancellors in Headington and ask for Callum. You will not regret it.

I would recommend Chancellors for all property dealings such as buying/selling/lettings. I personally recommend Rose Simpson. Rose was my agent and she was very keen and helped me get things done in a smooth and efficient way. Although there were few issues which happened during the process of buying Rose was quick to contact the appropriate personnel and get the issues resolved quickly so that everything was back on track. House buying is one of the most stressful times so having a good agent who could help understand your specific needs and act on it is very helpful. I found Rose very friendly and recommend her strongly.
