Amazing experience! I’m so happy with my new apartment. After viewing 11 apartments with other agencies, Intercounty found the perfect solution for me. Natasha and Shali were absolutely fantastic, friendly, professional, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. As someone new to the UK, I really appreciated how clearly they explained everything and guided me through all the important details. Their dedication, patience, and support made the whole experience smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend Natasha, Shali, and Intercounty Bishop’s storford to anyone looking for a reliable and professional agency. So far, I couldn’t be happier. Thank you so much!

The process of selling my mum's house with Intercounty was seamless and professional. They sold the house in three days by making great professional pictures and drumming up interest before it even hit the market. The price was realistic as well and so were the expectations. Sam Kelly and his sales team were easy to reach and worked flat out. As for the process, I must mention Doug Whybrow who was brilliant. He was basically reachable all the time by phone everytime we had a tiny question. As we used the Intercounty solicitor he helped liaise with that team too. Doug was calm and reassuring and helped explain in laymen's terms how the details worked when they came up. I can't thank him enough for reassuring my elderly mum. I just couldn't ask for a better process. We completed in just three months which feels unreal. Thank you Intercounty team!

I had a genuinely great experience working with Helen Mehmet. As everyone knows, selling and buying a house can be a very stressful process, but Helen made it so much easier. She was incredibly helpful and always there for us. Helen is friendly, knowledgeable, and really listens to what you need. She was always willing to go the extra mile to support us throughout the journey. I’d happily recommend her to anyone looking for a supportive and reliable agent when buying or selling with Intercounty.

I highly recommend Doug Whybrow at Intercounty for his exceptional professionalism throughout the sale of my property. Finding a buyer is only half the battle, but Doug managed the sales progression flawlessly! He kept the entire chain moving, anticipated issues before they arose, and kept me fully updated every step of the way. He made a stressful process feel completely smooth and manageable. Fantastic service! Thanks a million Doug!

We recently used Intercounty to both sell our home and purchase our new one, and the service was excellent from start to finish. The whole team were brilliant at keeping us updated, making sure everything kept moving, and guiding us through what can easily become a stressful process. A special mention has to go to Doug, who was fantastic throughout. His regular emails, clear communication, and proactive approach made a huge difference. He always ensured everyone had the information they needed in good time, and he was consistently easy to reach - whether by phone or email. His support genuinely helped keep the chain on track. We’re really grateful for all the work the team put in and would happily recommend Intercounty to anyone looking to buy or sell.

Had a really positive experience viewing a property with Natasha Gabbani at Intercounty, Bishop’s Stortford. Natasha was friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable about the property and the local area. She was punctual, happy to answer questions, and didn’t rush the viewing, which made the whole experience feel relaxed and well organised. Communication beforehand was clear and efficient. A great first impression, I’d happily view with Natasha again and would recommend Intercounty Bishop’s Stortford based on this experience.

This is the second google review I have left in my life. I was totally shocked by the treatment I received today by this estate agent. To find the property for the viewing appointment, I first typed the address given on the estate agent's website (Benbrook Court, Plymouth Road, Totnes) into google maps, but it gave no results. Ok, shouldn't be a problem I thought, I'll just use the map they provide on their page. So I got to the exact location they gave, but there was no house by that name. I walked up and down, but no luck. So I phoned the agent, still a couple of minutes early. They were nice enough, and suggested I use street view. I did, from their page, and that showed the house on the opposite side of the street that I was on, but in exactly the place I was at least. However this was not the right address either! Finally they were able to get the agent on site to phone me after I request that he do so or just come out onto the street. He was fairly rude, told me to google something that I could not hear him say, so I asked him to message me it instead. He hung up abruptly. I waited for a minute but with no text, I called him back. He told me he had messaged me and when I said I received no text, he asked me if I had any phone reception - a rather odd question to ask someone with whom you are on the phone! In the end I just walked to the end of the road, still on the phone, and actually found him, 130 yards away from the given location on the website, and up a little side road. (The actual property was even further away). He was extremely unwelcoming and said something about being in a hurry. So I politely said that I was in the right place according to their website, early, did my best, and that I hope he understands it was not my fault I was late. He responded to this with anger, saying I should have prepared beforehand. WOW!!! I was so shocked! I asked him, "Are you really blaming me for being late, when I was early, at the exact place your website gave on the map and street view..." Then he insisted yes it was my fault, I should have googled it. Well, I HAD put it into google maps, there were no results! But he didn't even believe that (not that that should even be relevant since his website gave the wrong map location!), and said angrily something like "Do you want us to let this property to you or not?" (Which seems to me like saying 'Let me abuse you otherwise I won't even show you the property'). I have never received such appalling customer service. It is so very easy to just say "I am so sorry that we provided the wrong location" or something like that. Or even if you really don't want to admit any fault, just "Nice to meet you, glad you finally found me" or whatever. Well, it turns out that this man was actually the boss, Daniel. He handed me off to Mike, who actually showed me around. Mike was fantastic - warm and professional. The polar opposite of Daniel. It saddens me to even write this review but, I guess that's what reviews are for - sharing experiences of a company's service. And since it's his own company, I doubt my report to the company office will go anywhere. I never could have imagined such bad service as this. Update: I have just now seen the reply given below by this company, which includes: "During your recent viewing, our staff member ended the appointment due to inappropriate language." That is an outright lie. The staff member, Mike, was great. I was shown the whole property (which was unsuitable for me - in particular there was no cooker/oven, which he said was 'normal'!). The boss, Daniel, was still hanging around outside by the end of my viewing. So this nonsense about my appointment being ended is a total fiction. Quite sad that the boss would treat a customer so badly and then lie about it to try to look like he wasn't in the wrong, on the internet, though I guess that fits his pattern of behaviour in blaming me for being late after I was in fact early but his own listing gave the wrong location.

We would like to thank the whole team at Daniel Hobbin for an outstanding service. From the very beginning through to completion they were nothing but professional, honest and extremely knowledgeable. We would especially like to thank Kiera, who is an absolute star. She, has supported us throughout the whole process of selling our home. Nothing was too much trouble, she kept in contact with us regularly, explaining the whole process from start to finish. She answered all of our questions and reassured us with any concerns along the way. She took the stress out of selling our home by supporting us throughout! We would highly recommend Daniel Hobbin Estate Agents to anyone who is planning on buying or selling their home. Thank you!

I would like to highly recommend Doug Whybrow at Intercounty. My experience dealing with him throughout the closing end of our purchase was absolutely first class. He was very personable, friendly and helpful. He was completely consistent in always keeping in touch with me and giving me updates on the progress of our purchase and always contactable and very pleasant to deal with. Highly recommended and reflects very well on intercounty. Both Doug as well as Jake Morley who were the two people I dealt with throughout my experience with intercounty both equally first class and very professional. Many thanks.

My daughter recently became a landlord because she could not sell her flat. Matt Stapleton at Intercounty was brilliant in every way, helpful, supportive, willing to take the time to explain and investigate queries. He is a credit to himself and Intercounty. Thank you Matt for all your help - it was amazing.

Dan is an estate agent that takes time to understand you as a person and a business. I’ve dabbled in rentals for years but since meeting Daniel two years ago I have focussed my business and increased my rental income dramatically, my aim was to buy property to support my retirement and I can now retire ten years earlier than I was hoping to. I really can’t recommend Daniel and his team enough, they are amazing.

We’ve recently just sold a property with Daniel Hobbins and have had a fantastic experience from start to finish. Daniel when visiting the property listened to us and what we needed and helped advise/execute that for us. The photos & property listing had the property sold within a few days. We then dealt with Keira on a weekly basis, who kept us updated throughout the rest of the process, chased up anything holding us up & helped point us in the right direction when I had no idea what I was doing. Keira kept me sane throughout especially when we had complications beyond our control and I would only use & recommend Daniel Hobbins from now on. Thank you so much, all the best to you all. Kelsea & Dylan.

Everyone I have dealt with at Intercounty so far has been really helpful and professional. I want to say special thanks to Katie Mitson for making my recent application for a rental property through them so stress free; she's kept me informed and been so friendly and understanding, and it is very much appreciated.

I contacted this agency as a high-earning professional (over £30k p.a.) with an impeccable 6.5-year local tenancy record. Like many others, they demanded sensitive financial and private data just to book a preliminary viewing. When I professionally challenged this as a breach of GDPR data minimisation principles, communication simply stopped. Instead of finding a solution for a highly-qualified applicant, with a high income, no convictions, no pets, and very good references, they chose to ignore my emails entirely. This "one-size-fits-all" automated approach is a significant barrier to housing and shows a complete lack of basic customer service. If you value professional respect and data integrity, I suggest looking elsewhere.

Had a fantastic experience with Intercounty Bishop’s Stortford. Natasha conducted the viewing and was amazing, friendly, professional, and very helpful. After that, I was supported by Reece Knight and Sheli, and both were excellent throughout the process. They were always very responsive, and whenever I called the office, my queries were handled promptly and professionally. Sheli, in particular, stood out, she was incredibly understanding, proactive, and always followed up to make sure all my questions were answered. Her support really made a difference. I viewed many properties through different letting agencies, but Intercounty provided one of the best experiences I’ve had. The whole process was smooth and stress-free. I would highly recommend their service!

I recently purchased a one-bed-flat in St. Marychurch from the team at Daniel Hobbin Estate Agents, with the whole process being flawless from start to finish - they also assisted me in then renting the property. A great business delivering the personal touch, I really recommend them - thanks Adam, you were great.
