The Lords

Our overall experience was very positive, all members of staff were friendly & informative. It was always good to get feedback & on several occasions to chat to the viewers as they arrived to advise them on local amenities. We would recommend Fox & Sons Wintonfor advising us from the beginning to the end of the sale of our property. A special mention for Tom, for his professionalism.

Applied for an MIP with local firm thinking would get a more personal service. Tried back in early July and no response for a few days so decided service was not great! Wanted a responsive service. Then decided would have another go and sent salary slips as requested to the broker 19th July. No response at all to date! Now going to go to an online national service.

Brilliant Mortgage Advisor

The mortgage advisor, Rhodri, at the Fox & Sons Bitterne branch is fantastic. Extremely professional, knowledgeable and highly competent. Would recommend Rhodri without slightest hesitation.

Filthy, Mouldy Flat

At the time of writing, it is less than a week from Christmas and I have not received my money back from Fox & Sons.

A brilliant service and superb staff

A brilliant service and superb staff. Was selling my elderly mothers house and they went above and beyond making each step easy and helping my mum understand what was happening. Best estate agent I have ever dealt with. Wish they were all this good! Special thanks to Perry and Harry.

Bognor Regis star

We had a very good experience with Foxes Bognor Regis estate agents, especially Danny O'Dwyer, who bent over backwards whilst arranging our mortgage. We can't thank him enough for all his efforts. We would thoroughly recommend him to anyone.

Danny and Alysha were fantastic with our recent purchase. They were always on hand to help with any questions and their communication was second to none. I would highly recommend Danny and the team at Shoreham and will definitely be using them if we ever decide to sell in the future.

Stephen and his team at fox and sons Eastbourne have been invaluable during the sale of my flat. Their persistent sales progression has helped a slightly awkward sale get over the line. I would normally be wary about using big agents such as Fox and Sons but a good local team really makes the difference.

Danny and Alysha were great in finding me a lovely new home after the original property I wanted to buy fell through. The exchange went smoothly and quickly. I was happy with the service and would recommend Fox & Sons. Thank you, both!

Eastleigh branch are awful. Beware!

Eastleigh branch were very helpful until we signed contract to hopefully sell our house. From then on we had 20 weeks of no communication what so ever. No one returned our calls or emails. Be very aware of them as they will not communicate with the customer and even before our contract ended we were hoping that a buyer would not come along as we felt fox & sons did not deserve the commission on the sell. We would advise anyone who is thinking of signing up with them to stay away!, do not sign a thing!!

Southampton Branch

During the initial phases, before we paid any money to them they were very helpful, checking in to see how our search was going. Very speedy and detailed responses to any questions that I had.I am not exaggerating when I say that as soon as we paid their £700 fee we have had no contact from them at all. Someone else has been put on to our case - I'm not entirely sure why and the only correspondence I have had from them is to tell me that they've been assigned to us. I followed up with an email that has been left unanswered - I have had more contact and assistance with the sellers' estate agent than I have from my mortgage advisor!!!!!!!!Part of their fee is a lifetime subscription that you don't have to pay again if you use them in the future but at this rate, I will absolutely not be using them again. Not that it matters to them as they've squeezed the money out of us now!

Unethical, Dishonesty and Unprofessional(Hastings Branch)

Unethical , dishonesty and unprofessional (Hastings Branch).Had an offer accepted in February 2023 with Hastings Branch. Toby Jones(Manager) was dealing with the case. For the last 6 months we have been told that the( lease holder management company) were unable to release a lease pack because there was an outstanding debt. Since then, there's been a series of excuses with the property. Miraculously, the lease pack was released soon after our second valuation which was completed on the 24/08/23. Following the 2nd valuation Toby contacted me and informed me that some else has now made a higher offer despite the property being off market according to the offer letter. In this process we lost money for legal fees ,2 sets of valuations and time. I would not recommend the Estate agency .

We used fox& sons ( Gosport branch ) to market our rented house . They found a couple that moved in Dec 22. They assured us a credit check would be done and sent us the details of the tenants . December rent was paid which most of was used to pay the branch their fee. At the start of January 23 when rent was due tenant delayed due to financial problems , to then only pay part of the rent. This went on till May to then receive a letter to say tenants have been given " breathing space" . Unsure to what this was we went down to the gosport office to ask them could they give us more details on this . They had not heard of breathing space and was of no help whatsoever. We explained that these tenants have paid next to no rent , but they explained to us that credit checks had been done. Well , all I can say is their credit check that they had done was useless . We have lost thousands of pounds in rent . Spent hundreds getting a solicitor to get the nightmare tenants out . I would never use fox and sons as their services are really bad . Tenants are finally out leaving piles of old furniture for us to get rid of , more costs! . Your credit checks are useless !! If you had delved further with these tenants you would have easily found out they were in so much debt . Anyone looking to rent out their property I would strongly recommend you look elsewhere.

Worked above and beyond to enable us to sell our house

We tried to sell our property a couple of years ago with Fox and Sons, but then we had to postpone the sale so it was disappointing for us all. Tom from Fox and Sons in Crawley then decided to make it his life's work to sell our property 🤣 he went above and beyond to get the right buyer for us and finally it has happened so we can't thank him and his team enough. Tom never gives up and thats amazing. Abi, who is the Senior Branch Administrator at Crawley then went into archives to find previous reports which we desperately needed for the solicitors. Nothing was too much trouble for her and they still had them which was amazing. The new manager there Rebecca, has turned this company around and I couldn't recommend them more. Big pat on the back for you all 👏👏

I have to say how helpful the staff were at the Bognor Branch of Fox & Sons. They could not have been more helpful.They went out of their way to make sure my mum's sale went well, and she had tricky buyers to say the least, but all the staff were exceptional. They keep me updated with the progress and helped out with all the negotiation between all parties involved.My mum was getting very stressed with everything and they all helped to ease the pressure and situation.So I want to say on behalf of my mum and myself a BIG THANK YOU.

Wish I could give no stars- Southampton

Wish I could give no stars. Moved into my flat in April to discover a myriad of issues, all were reported to them. Nothing has been done since then despite constant chasing, leading to myself being trapped in a room due to a broken door and fire and rescue needing to be called out, resulting in more damage. Landlord also let herself into the flat without prior warning as Fox and Sons told her it was okay- incredibly illegal and a breach of contract, fortunately I was off sick on that day to catch her. Spoke to the branch about it just to be shouted at down the phone by Nicola who works there. DO NOT RENT FROM THESE PEOPLE!

I have had experience of two Shoreham based estate agents. The first was absolutely awful. Fox & Sons were SUPERB in everyway, a real eye opener.
