Sarah Farrington is an asset to Chewton Rose. We asked her to find a buyer for our apartment and she was an utmost professional from beginning to end. She always returned calls and emails immediately and was friendly and confident/reassuring that we would find a buyer. We have now exchanged and complete in two weeks time. Thank you Sarah.

Ben Blacker has been great agent, facilitator advocate and negotiator to progress the sale of the property that, when completed will help me secure my future. Chewton Rose succeeded where others failed. Thanks

Constant calls and texts!
I went on Zoopla and requested a valuation for a remortgage not just from Chewton rose but other companies too. Chewton Rose will not leave me alone even after saying I wasn’t interested! I have been called nearly 20 times, I have blocked the number but still get texts messages and it won’t let me block the texts! But I get these at least twice a day asking me to call!

Actually delivers ........
Excellent service from beginning to end! Found everyone extremely professional, following all the guidelines when showing people around our house. Marketing material was excellent and led to a quick sale with us being kept fully informed throughout. We would have no hesitation in recommending Barry and his team to anyone.
Hi, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a great review about your experience with us!
5/5
Right from the outset, I was impressed with the level of knowledge that the agents possessed about the local area and property market trends. Ben at Chewton Rose provided exceptional service, professionalism and expertise. I felt confident throughout the entire process that I was in good hands. Overall, I cannot recommend Chewton Rose highly enough. The team's dedication, knowledge, and professionalism are truly exceptional, and I would have no hesitation in using their services again, or recommending them to anyone else in need of an estate agent in Hertfordshire.
Thanks for your kind words. Ben

We were so bowled over by Ben Blacker's valuation of our property from start to finish. We appreciated his calm, friendly, kind, unassuming manner and the time he took to make our 1 year old feel seen and at ease throughout (which sounds trivial but was so valuable as it meant less disruption and I felt it built an immediate rapport amongst us). I felt he took his time, didn't rush through anything at all, summised his thoughts clearly and we liked that he didn't ask us to divulge other valuations we'd had either before or after his own valuation. Very refreshing! We were impressed with his experience and expertise and the USPs that he felt Chewton Rose had. It may be unusual to say that someone has gone above and beyond for a valuation but we really felt this was the case with Ben - a 5* experience, highly recommend - thank you so much!
Thanks for your kind words. Ben

Five stars isn’t enough for Ben Blacker and Chewton Rose. At every stage of the process, Ben handled the sale of my elderly father’s house in Welwyn Garden City with consummate professionalism and sensitivity. I was particularly impressed with his evident care for my father’s circumstances and his extreme effectiveness in finding a highly suitable buyer as soon as the property went to market. I would have no hesitation in working with him and Chewton Rose on future transactions. Thank you, Ben!
Thanks for your kind words. Ben

A fantastic professional service from an experienced team.
The team at Chewton Rose in Ascot were wonderful. We had lots of viewings and after we found a buyer their support in managing the chain and communicating all events to us was superb. Without their guidance, moving house would have been a lot more difficult. I would recommend Chewton Rose to anyone selling their house in Ascot.
Hi Chris, Thanks for your kind review of our Ascot branch. We're pleased to hear they provided a wonderful service and that they communicated all updates throughout. We will pass this feedback on. Regards Ross

I have dealt mainly with Ben Blacker who has been a delight to speak with. He is extremely prompt with all processes and chasing deals to completion. Polite, very knowledgeable and friendly at all times. I have also spoken to other members of staff in this branch who are also friendly and keen to help. Thank you all for your help. Highly recommended. Best wishes.
Thanks for your kind words. Ben

Great service provided by Ben and the wider team. Very relaxed, no pressure, and generally very easy to deal with. After meeting Ben, we knew straight away this is who we want to sell our house. Although we did not end up with a sale due to circumstances out of our control, we'll not hesitate to go back to Chewton Rose when the time is right for our house to go back on the market.
Thanks for your kind words. Ben

This is by far the worst agency I’ve encountered in the UK, especially agent BARRY MARNER. They listed my property with completely inaccurate details: copied descriptions, an incorrect floor number, and no floorplan provided. I was pressured into signing sales terms, but once the paperwork was done, all communication ceased. Despite repeatedly reaching out and even receiving promises of a callback, I heard nothing since THREE months ago. I strongly advise against using this agency.

Nottingham Chewton Rose
We have just sold our last plot of 3 through the Nottingham Chewton Rose and the staff there have been brilliant. As it was an unusual site with a few problems, we had a large number of viewings and the last plot took over a year to go through. Graham Lang patiently stuck with us and helped out chasing solicitors to move things along. I would certainly recommend them if you have a house to sell and would definitely use them again in the future. Thank you Graham!

Professional and caring
For family reasons we had to take our house off the market. However the support we got through that difficult process was of the same high caring and professional standard that Graham and his team at Chewton Rose MK had demonstrated throughout the whole sales journey. We were very impressed by the high quality way in which our home was marketed, the very high volume of viewings that were in place in a very short amount of time, and the large number of likely offers that were definitely building in the pipeline. A great team - and when the time comes to sell we will definitely go back to them without hesitation.
5/5
A successful sale was achieved so smoothly and quickly that it left me slightly shell shocked.
After being chased by agents for several years, I decided to sell and downsize just before Christmas 2015. I made an Agency Agreement with Philip Dodd (then of Edwards and Elliott, now of Chewton Rose) and decided that marketing should begin after Christmas and New Year were out of the way. Bids were then sought, received, compared and negotiated by Philip to reach agreement with a buyer before the end of January 2016.Philip was also extremely helpful with a maintenance problem which cropped up during that period.

I recently used Chewton Rose for the sale of my house and worked in particular with Philip. I found them to be highly efficient and professional from the first meeting, producing the fabulous sales brochure and all the way through the sales process. Philip was extremely helpful and went above and beyond to make things easy for me and he kept me very well informed all the way through the process. I highly recommend Chewton Rose
