GoogleI would like to thank Mark and his team for their excellent, professional and friendly support from the first viewing, through to the exchange of contracts. Mark's frequent updates filled me with confidence and I was especially impressed by the way he chased a mortgage broker on my behalf, enabling a swift and painless purchase. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Ella Homes Estate Agents for anyone buying or selling a property.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

View Agents SellerDealing with Ella to sell my late father's property was a truly dreadful experience
Ella sell a lot of properties because they value them near the bottom of the market which is ok if you want to get on and sell quickly, but might not suit everyone. They did very little to act on my behalf as the client.. They didn't get the place on the market as quickly as promised and I never saw the brochure on the house that they also promised. They did find a buyer for me but when the buyers were slow to get legal proceeding kicked off Ella did nothing to chase it up until prompted by my solicitor, Worst of all for me, meddling by Mark Ayres turned the run up to completion of the sale from a stressful experience into a distressing and stressful time. They say on their website that "our relationship with the client is never taken for granted". I didn't find this to be true and I certainly wouldn't recommend them.

Hi Stephanie
We are truly sorry that you feel this way. We actually had to chase the solicitor rather than the other way around and always try to work in the best interests of our clients the vendors. Your buyer was ready by mid February but sadly, on this occassion due to reasons set out to us by your solicitor it could not complete until the May. We chased this on a weekly basis for you right up until completion. We certainly don't mean to meddle, rather we intend to maintain communication between all parties and ensure the sale reaches exchange and completion for all parties. Sincere apologies for any distress caused.

GoogleMark Ayres has yet again been fantastic throughout our selling process.
His attention to detail and speedy feedback at all stages was very much appreciated, especially during the unsettled times of the first lockdown.
Once viewings were allowed we quickly secured a sale, progressing to completion as quickly as the situation would allow.
VERY pleased with Mark and the team, would not hesitate to recommend them as an estate agent.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

GoogleThe Lettings Division of Ella manages a number of rental properties for my family. All the team are talented but Elaine stands out for me because of her tenant selection skills.

GoogleWe have moved house quite a few times now but this is our first time dealing with Alexandra and co and we couldn’t fault them at all. This has got to be the less stressed we’ve felt when it comes to moving.
Our agent is Elaine and she has been great! Elaine has kept in contact throughout out and has been answering all enquiries very quickly. From previous experience with other estate agents it’s always been us chasing them up which hasn’t been the case with this house move. It’s been extremely efficient and smooth. Elaine has been fantastic and has really kept our stress levels under control and we really appreciate it. Thank you very much.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism
