TrustpilotMatt is a star!
Matt went above and beyond throughout my house purchase process and made what is normally a stressful situation a breeze. Nothing was too much trouble - he kept me updated throughout and chased all relevant parties to make sure things were moving as they should. Thank you so much Matt.
Thank you for your 5* review, Zoe.

TrustpilotThanks Davina and Team.
Davina was a joy to work with throughout our sale. We did not expect much activity in such a depressed market however Davina and the team managed a constant stream of interested buyers, and secured our sale within 6 weeks. Outstanding.Communication was proactive and immediate. The mechanics of progressing the sale through to a successful conclusion were all handled smoothly and with enthusiasm. A positive experience from start to finish.

TrustpilotGood experience
We have finished renting our flat for 1 year with Nikki Gardner as property manager. She was very attentive and let us know of any issues in a timely manner. Specifically, when given our 4 months notice to vacate she was a great help in sorting our affairs.

Exceptionally professional from start to finish. Ellie and Charlotte worked hard to get our house sold and when our solicitor was holding things up Daniel, the manager, relentlessly drove everything forward. Excellent service all round.

TrustpilotReally good letting experience all round
We just rented a property via Prospect. Normally, we get led around in a rush when viewing rental properties, but the agent in this case was really good and took the time to show me around properly. Once we decided to move forward, Stefano was great in the office, helping to get everything signed off quickly as well as answering questions in a very friendly manner!

Charlotte was excellent from the start with helping us find a property and the whole process after that. Regular contact and keeping us in the loop was fantastic and she made the whole process of moving feel easy. Was happy to answer any questions if we had them and this helped with the overall process. Can’t thank Charlotte and the Prospect team enough for helping us!!

TrustpilotPLEASE READ BEFORE USING PROSPECT ESTATE AGENTS.
We have used prospect to rent through for a couple of years now. They have been great.. until it comes to moving out. On 6th january 2023 our tenancy renewed. It also renewed with a rent increase. Just DAYS after the tenancy renewed we were informed the house was going on the market and another estate agent would be in touch to arrange viewings and take photos. Had we have known this, we absolutely wouldn't have agreed to renew the tenancy as we were basically trapped into paying rent until a buyer is found. The reasoning would be, we have no idea when the property would sell and as to when we'd have to move out. Secondly due to chemotherapy and recent surgeries I am extremely vulnerable to having people in and out of the house. We received an email from prospect saying quote 'the landlord is happy for you to stay in situ until a point of sale. If a point of sale isn't agreed by the end of tenancy your agreement will roll onto a monthly periodic' basically saying, the landlord can serve notice anytime before but you can't. We found somewhere else to live as I cannot afford to have strangers come into the home when I am in such a vulnerable position. This was denied and was stated we couldn't move out. We sought legal advise on the situation and it came to light that the agreement had actually been broken, as in the contract it clearly states there isn't allowed to be any for sale / advertisements until the last 2 months of the tenancy. I brought this up to prospect and got told they will 'speak to the landlord.' It's not good enough. Why is the landlord allowed to break the tenancy, but we aren't? We were falsely tricked into signing a tenancy agreement (WITH A RENTAL INCREASE) on the pretence the house was going on the market. We were totally mislead. When you sign a tenancy agreement, you sign it on the hopes of a stable, secure home which you rightly pay to legally occupy. In our case, we were signing the agreement to insure the landlord / prospect didn't have any missed gaps of non-payment until the house would've sold. I know there is always a risk of a house being sold. It's part and parcel of renting, but to be told this a handful of days after renewing the tenancy agreement is morally so wrong. Prospect were also aware of my current health conditions, as is the landlord, as we've had to turn away someone coming to do a gas inspection due to my ongoing treatment. I'm not asking anybody to put the sale on hold, but so the right thing and let us be released from the contract early. The email clearly states if a sale happens before the tenancy agreement is up, the landlord can serve notice. If that isn't the case, and the landlord will still have to wait for the tenancy agreement is over, then maybe raise this with the staff member who wrote the email. As we took this email for gospel and made arrangements to move. I have spent weeks chasing for replies, only to get a call back saying we cannot break the contract. We have now moved from the property due to the health risks this poses on me, and the sheer stress this has put on myself and my family, and the fact we don't want to live on tender-hooks not knowing when we would have to leave. It's an absolute shambles and to leave my family in this cost of living crisis liable to pay the rent up until a point of sale, when we have been tricked into this tenancy, and also when the contract has been clearly not stuck by, by erecting for sale signs, and not letting us enjoy the property on a quiet and peaceful basis, has left us no option to seek legal advise which we have now done. On one of the emails I received it also said 'we are acting on behalf as the landlord as they are our client.' Well we are also paying customers. Also your clients. There has been no thought or consideration for us at all, and due to this, we have had to pay hundreds of pounds to seek legal advise and we are willing and now WANTING this to go to court as we have a watertight defence on the pretence of being mislead, as well as the contract not being adhered to. I am also going to make this known with the redress schemes and the ombudsman. We will take this as far as we need to, to put this right.

Both Paul and Beth were brilliant throughout the process of us looking for homes and even though we haven’t actually bought a place with them, they were so helpful in the search and remained in touch and professional even up until now whilst we proceed with a property with a different estate agent. I can’t recommend them enough, lovely people and if god forbid our sale with this house falls through, I actually look forward to looking at more properties through prospect with Beth and Paul.Thank you for always keeping me updated and staying honest throughout.Nimrah

TrustpilotBracknell Lettings
Prospect Bracknell lettings have managed my property for over four years now. Beckie Baxter has been looking after it for most of this time. Things haven't been straight forward with the tenants but Beckie has handled things professionally, efficiently and with both landlords and tenants interests at heart. Communication is great too, being kept up to speed on any issues. Beckie treats the property as if it was her own, and offers great advice along the way. Thank you to Beckie and the letting team.

GoogleI have nothing bad to say, the process of getting my first flat has been super easy and stress free thanks to Charlotte! She has been so helpful with gathering extra information for me and letting me view the property again for measurements. She always keeps me updated and has answered every email and phone call very quickly! Thank you so much :)

GoogleCharlotte at Prospects in Wokingham has been absolutely brilliant in finding new tenants for our property. On both occasions good tenants were found within a 24hour period, quite unbelievable comparing this to our old agency that lost us tenants over months of being on the market. Charlotte was very professional, extremely responsive, I would highly recommend using Prospects in Wokingham from my experience

I’ve just brought a house with prospects and all I can say is Beth Murphy has been absolutely amazing! I would highly recommend her to anyone using prospect if you want your experience of buying a house to be pleasant please go with her. She went over and beyond for us that even after we didn’t get our first property we wanted to stay with prospects because of her outstanding customer service. She always replied back to me immediately and assured me. There was no game playing like other agents she was very honest. We just cannot thank Beth enough wish there was a 10 star for her.

Beth Murphy of Prospect Estate has been absolutely wonderful. Trying to locate a new house close to myself for my elderly parents has been made possible thanks to Beth. The specification of requirements given by my parents was fairly extensive and Beth rose to the challenge ensuring all were met on more than one occasion. Unfortunately my parents had to bow out of the original house due to health challenges but Beth has since found another and look forward to them moving in during March. I would personally like to thank Beth for her dedication and all the effort she has made. Not your usual estate agent by any means. If I chose to move in the future my first port of call would Beth Murphy. Thank you Beth for all your hard work, 5 stars plus!

TrustpilotGreat experience with Prospect, thanks to Beth
Huge thank you to Beth who was amazing throughout the sale process. We decided to go with Prospect after having bad experience with a previous agency and couldn’t be happier with our decision. The way Beth handled everything from arranging viewings to finding us a buyer and guiding us through the whole process with her fantastic communication and knowledge was so helpful. Beth is a credit to the company. Thanks Prospect!

Sasha Byrne from Prospect Estate Agency has been my property manager for the past year and I couldn't be happier with her service. As someone who has rented from different agencies in the past, I can say that Sasha stands out in terms of professionalism and attentiveness. She is always available to answer any questions or concerns I have, and goes above and beyond to ensure my rental experience is as seamless and stress-free as possible. I highly recommend Sasha and the Prospect Estate Agency for anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy property manager.

TrustpilotGreat Expert Property Valuation
We had our Flat valuation recently by Prospect estate agency, Mr Toby Herman was valuation manager who visited the property and we were glad that he did great in getting the valuation with attention to detail on each aspects of our Flat and advised on the current market condition and buyers interest.Also briefed the best practices which Prospect estate agency follows in shortlisting the Potential buyers with predefined checks done, which further saves the overall time for selling completions.
