GoogleI cannot thank Rhesa enough for all the help she has provided in helping me find a new home! She went above and beyond to make sure I got the home I so badly wanted even on her days off she called me to keep me in the loop and she processed all the necessary referencing in more then a timely manner meaning I heard back same day! Thank you so much Rhesa! I appreciate everything you have done for me and my family x

GoogleI cannot speak highly enough of Rhesa, she has been so helpful since our first meeting in the office. Rhesa kept me informed every step of the way ( even on her days off ) ensuring the process went as smoothly as possible. She found the perfect tenant very quickly.
So, if you are looking for an agent who makes renting your property a smooth process be sure to ask Rhesa for some guidance, you won't be disappointed!

GoogleDarren Tussaud, were can I start… this lad was completely professional from the moment he walked through the door, asked questions about us and made us feel at ease, talked us through the process and explained everything . On the money with the valuation and his strategy on selling too the wider market was superb. This lad will
Go far in life and has a bright future ahead. It was a pleasure dealing with not only Darren but the whole team. 10/10 5 star, Darren is a credit to abbots and deserves praise.

My Late Mum was advised to sell the property via auction by Abbots of Norwich To sell via Auction inclusive of the payment to the auction house and the estate agent in Norwich we paid 4.72% of the total price of the property. This was the charge to sell the property. Normally on selling a property you pay 1% to 1.5 % for estate agent fees.

GoogleWe had a wonderful experience working with Amy and Peter at Abbots. Their professionalism and dedication were evident throughout our journey to find the perfect home. They were incredibly attentive to our needs, and their efforts truly shone when they helped us move into our beautiful new cottage. We couldn’t be happier with our new home and are grateful for their expert guidance and support. Thank you, Amy and Peter, for making this such a smooth and enjoyable process.

TrustpilotTim @ Kings Lynn - 5 Star!!
We brought a bungalow from a seller using Abbott’s at the beginning of the year. Tim @ Kings Lynn branch truly went above & beyond for us. He attended extra viewings, even on his Saturday day offs. He kept us updated as to progress. But above all else he was in constant contact with the seller & their solicitor, pushing them along to get the sale through in the timeframe we needed. He made endless phone calls, got involved in paperwork where he had no obligation to & was always on the end of the phone when we needed him. Would recommend Tim to anyone. I think he was as excited as we were the day we got the keys!!! Thank you

GoogleI can not make any complaint concerning Abbotts Sales as they managed to work around our own hours of viewing without question.
The person who dealt with everything was a Hannah Brown who tried to make everything easier for us with the viewing itself. She was very helpful and we do honestly appreciate all that she done for us.
I do recommend this company and especially having Hannah to assist with your purchase of future home.
Thank you Hannah :-)

TrustpilotVery knowledgeable and helpful
Very knowledgeable and helpful. They prioritised sending the right person round rather than the number of people they sent round. Then, after we sold they were very helpful in the conveyancing process. They have a specific department for that who was able to explain things when I was unsure and to liaise with solicitors and the other agents. When problems arose they were key in resolving it and finding the right solution. While we worked mainly with Joanna from Thorpe Bay we also had a lot of help from Amy on the after sale. They have also continued to support us after the sale.

GooglePeter and Nelle from the Rayleigh letting team have been nothing but helpful and supportive in finding a tenant for my mum's flat in Southend. When the first potential tenant pulled out a week before their move in date, the team managed to find a new tenant for the property, completed the referencing check and sent over a new tenant agreement, all within 48 hours!! Impressive is an understatement! I would highly recommend them if you want to have a hassle-free experience 😊

TrustpilotAbbotts Norwich is honestly a disaster…
Abbotts Norwich is honestly a disaster of a letting agency. The male agent who showed me the property behaved like an out-of-control football hooligan, completely unprofessional and erratic, rushing through the entire viewing. When I followed up with their customer service, it was just as bad: totally amateur. They promised a call back but I never heard from them again.
