A massive thank you to Chris Wilkinson…

A massive thank you to Chris Wilkinson who is the area manager for Balgores Mortgages. I was a bit sceptical of using Balgores in house broker service, but I am so glad I listened to them. Chris has been absolutely amazing from start to finish; incredibly professional, clearly knows what he's doing and talking about! He was very calm, approachable,accecable and reassuring. He was incredibly transparent about everything. Ticked all the boxes you'd want in a broker. He was also able to get me considerably more on my mortgage!The whole process felt swift and stress free. Thank you Chris and your team, cannot recommend enough (if you work for Police or NHS - no brainer, Chris really understands the payslip structure).

Fantastic

I would like to say a huge thank you to Sarah Oakley of Balgores. Sarah is very professional, hardworking and great with communication. Sarah went above and beyond to make our sale and purchase go as smoothly as possible. She put in a lot of hard work constantly chasing the chain and speaking to solicitors and constantly kept us updated all the way though. I would definitely recommend using Sarah and her team. Thank you so much Sarah, we really did appreciate everything you did for us.

A huge thank you to Kellee and Donna!

We had an absolute nightmare of a time trying to sell our house for various reasons outside of our control (and Balgores' control for that matter)- land registry problems, an unprofessional solicitor on the other side, etc. etc. 2 sales fell through and the one that did finally go through took almost 6 months. I honestly think if we had had any other estate agents we would have simply given up. They didn't lose patience with us or our house and kept on going, getting us a decent price in the end.Kellee is an absolute professional- viewings were always lined up quickly and the communication was super. She even looked after our house when we moved abroad.Donna pushed everything through tirelessly and saved my sanity in the process! She is absolutely wonderful to work with.A huge thank you to both of you and everyone at Balgores!!

Excellent service from Balgores, Hornchurch.

From the start Kellee was professional and very keen to sell our property.Her valuation was the same as another few estate agents, apart from one who severely undervalued. We used Balgores (Hornchurch) because Kellee shone through. Numerous viewings were arranged very quickly by her team, and Balgores did all the viewings backed up with regular communication.Dan of MAB was superb from start to finish with our mortgage. Donna Hickey was fantastic through the stressful last stages of the sale to completion. Balgores knew we were buying our next property via another estate agent, but they did not hound us. Well done Balgores, you've chalked up another happy customer.We would certainly recommend Kellee and her team at Hornchurch.

Would definitely recommend this estate agents. The staff went above and beyond, often supporting with legal documentation when solicitors hadn’t been in touch. I would particularly like to name Ewan and Georgia who communicated extremely frequently and effectively, making a stressful process as smooth as possible.

Would recommend 👍🏼

Christian and his team took over our mortgage application following some severe incompetence from our previous broker. Christian was very prompt with his correspondence throughout the process of restarting our entire application and although we were incredibly upset about having to do this, he ensured the process was as painless as possible. We got things over the line within 3 weeks which we were very happy with. I would recommend Christian and his team to anyone with mortgage needs.

Hornchurch Branch

My first time in selling a property and Donna was truly amazing. It was a very lengthy process with a few complications but Donna was so understanding, supportive and mostly reassuring. She answered every email I sent instantly and went above and beyond to make sure the sale went through smoothly. If I was buying or selling another property I wouldn’t hesitate to use Balgores and would highly recommended them also.

Balgores Romford team

Glenn Hardie was our mortgage broker and Bobby Taylor our estate agent. A brilliant team! Glenn was very professional and thorough, spending a lot of time explaining our available mortgage options and always making himself available for any questions. Ultimately helping us in securing a financial product with a very good interest rate!Bobby likewise is very professional and proactive. In fact the house we have just purchased was put forward to us by Bobby who arranged a viewing. We would not have viewed this property otherwise. He is always available for questions and throughout the transaction has been brilliant support in liaising with our surveyor, lawyers and providing us access to the property when required. A great service from a brilliant team!

Balgores estate agents

I dealt with Christopher West when selling my mothers house. I found him to be knowledgeable and very helpful in the initial setting up of the sale.Once photos has been taken the property was placed on the market at the correct price and the house sold within a day. I was kept fully up to date with how the sale was progressing by Balgores who endured a trouble free completion was reached. I would have no hesitation using Balgores again.

Brilliant service, would highly recommend!

Absolutely delighted that we chose to go with Joe at Balgores on the sale of our property. Every step of the experience was made as easy as possible for us and he was incredibly supportive not just on our sale, but also helped us overcome the many challenges we faced on our linked onward purchase. Joe was a real ‘partner’ and went through it all with us. He was empathetic and professional, and we really can’t thank him enough for all the hours he put in for us. We couldn’t have done it without him! We’d highly recommend Joe and the team- he gave us a really exceptional service.

Phenomenal Service.

The mortgage advice and service provided by Sean Londors has been second to none. He managed to secure a mortgage offer for us in 4 days, where I am still waiting after 5 weeks with another broker. Also, the teamwork between Sean and the team at Balgores Basildon has been faultless. Thank you so much for making such a positive impact so quickly. It has been a pleasure.

Michael Gibbon has been exceptional

Michael Gibbon has been exceptional, from start to finish. He was recommended to us by a friend, and being first time buyers, the whole process is new to us. Michael answered all our questions, was available whenever we needed, was timely in all his communications and meetings and made the entire process pleasant and stress free. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone buying a house!

Paul was very helpful and insightful, he went out of his way to provide us with more information than needed, prefilled in forms and gave some great points, which we have followed through with. Thank you Paul!

Want to sell your house use Balgores…

Joe and the team at Brentwood are very conscientious and motivated to sell for you. Good communicators keeping you fully informed. The after sale service, before exchange and completion is excellent. This is when other agents drop off but Joe and the team worked hard to drive it through. Also calm you explaining the little hiccups are every day to them and help pacify you. Thanks and would definitely use Balgores again.

Excellent service

Michael and Mackensie were excellent. Michael is very knowledgeable and was able to talk us through all of our options in this difficult climate. He worked hard and on a short time frame to secure us the best possible mortgage. Mackensie was excellent keeping us updated with the progress of our mortgage application. We will definitely use them when we renew in a few years time.

We have received an excellent service…

We have received an excellent service from Balgores in the marketing and sale of our property. They handled all the viewings and worked around times convenient to us. We would like to thank Josh for dealing with the viewings and particular thanks to Sarah for all her hard work and tenacity in getting us to exchange of contracts on our sale and purchase at such a busy time in the property market. She has worked tirelessly to ensure that we were able to achieve completion before the SDLT deadline. I would highly recommend Balgores in future to anyone looking to sell their property.

Fantastic service from a professional team

Having previously had a bad experience selling a house I was very nervous. Daniel, from Balgores Basildon, very reassuring and the sales team were fantastic. They got to work quickly and soon we had a firm offer. A special mention must be made of Sara, who had a very nervous me to deal with. Sara kept me updated all the way through and was very determined to get this deal over the line within our time frame. Laura from DC Law was incredible and “held my hand” throughout the process. Thank you BALGORES BASILDON for a job well done!

Can’t recommend Balgores enough!

Joe has been excellent throughout our purchase, and kept on top of the whole process and went above and beyond. We sold through another agent, but our purchase was with Balgores, and there was no comparison in the service given between Balgores and the other… we can’t thank Joe enough for pushing our chain on and getting things across the line. If we ever sell again we would 100% use Balgores!

Challenging purchase but all worthwhile!

Buying a property during the pandemic has been a long, challenging and frustrating process. I firstly want to thank Josh Finch who initially showed myself and my wife around to a few properties even drove us to a couple of viewings as we were travelling by foot, this was really appreciated. I wanted to say a big thank you to Lucy and Mackensie to get the mortgage application approved and keeping me informed at all stages.Last but not least me and my wife want to say a big thank you to Sarah Oakley who progressed our property purchase with efficiency, great customer service and always kept me informed of any and all changes (which was quite a few!) Her professionalism and commitment to her job is highly commendable.I highly recommend the services of the Balgores property team.
