We have just completed and are very pleased with the quality and level of service Castles provided, Duncan, Simon and Debbie were friendly, professional, helpful and accomodating.
Having used several estate agents in the area over the past few years and dissapointed with most of them, we would recommend Castles and use them again in future. The "survival" bag was a lovely surprise!Was this review helpful? Yes

At all times I was most impressed by the strong and patient rapport the team had built with the vendor which ensured a smooth purchase. Key for me was the open, honest, accessible and effective communications from Castles throughout. A nice touch was a completion day goodie bag containing essentials such as tea, coffee, biscuits, some sparkly and even a spare light bulb!

Just completed on the sale of our house in Farnham...
I have nothing but praise for the friendly service and support that we have received from Castles over the last few months... even when the sale was delayed it seemed that Steve and Donna were constantly keeping me in the loop and would be acting in my best interests throughout...
Having used a few agents in Farnham I would have to say that Castles seem to stand out for their approach to provide the best level of customer care and support... I wont mention who the other were...
We actually bought the same house through Castles in the first place... so it has been good to keep that connection there...
I rarely write these kind of reviews... but I felt it may be helpful for others thinking of going with Castles to read about the positive experiance that we have had with them...
Thanks Steve and Donna... who knows... maybe back in the future to buy another house...

Great service, always available to help (Duncan). We arranged the viewing with Simon- he's very patient, always smiling and really helpful. We had viewings with other agents from different agencies but Castles, Simon in particular, are the best.
Would recommend to use them.Was this review helpful? Yes

The best estate agent we have ever used, a very difficult purchase due to lots of issues with the seller but Duncan put himself out to sort issues and keep us informed every step of the way!
Even arrived to give us the keys and a welcome pack and a call recently to see how we were getting on, will be recomending Castles to all of our friends and using them when we move (not for years hopefully though).
Cant recomend this company any more highly!

We were very pleased with the service we received from Duncan and his team. They were very responsive and were excellent in terms of communication. We were kept informed of each development in the selling process and even when the key agents were away the others would call to keep us up to date. All the staff that we dealt with were helpful and friendly.

A savvy and personalised service with an excellent knowledge of the property market and property marketing, Castles provided the most accurate valuation and great images for the sale of our property. Their work with progressing the sale was really spot on and I would definitely recommend them, they agency has a good balance of resources for people looking a wide marketing reach and genuine service.

Castles were friendly and helpful: however I felt they were not overly concerned and there was very little follow up. I had to pursue matters and drive them for answers. They may need a further agent in their office to provide exceptional service.

Castles must be the best agents in the area. They are friendly and professional to deal with, straightforward and clear in their advice and publications. When things go wrong (as seems inevitable) they were there to help, advise and arrange things. I felt supported and guided all the way through. Just what you need.

Having used Castles to find new tenants for my property I was really pleased with the quality and level of service they provided.
With my previous tenants, I had employed another well known letting agent based in Farnham, and the two companies are incomparable - What a refreshing change it made using Castles, a really well organised, and well run lettings department.Was this review helpful? Yes

II found all the staff at Castles in Farnham to be very professional and friendly. They were brilliant from the moment I first walked in their door to put my flat on the market. They provided lots of contact and feedback and good advice. I would without a doubt recommend Castles to anyone as the best estate agent to use for selling a property...

Very impressed. They gave straightforward advice regarding pricing, were responsive and quick and found me a tenant in record time - no void between old and new tenant. Easily the best agent I've used in this area.

I'm glad the people we were buying off chose to use Castles as their estate agent. Buying a property through these agents was actually an enjoyable process. They were very helpful and accommodating which was especially important as we were first time buyers. They were also actively involved during the legal process which surprised me. They kept me regularly up-to-date by phone and email. I had the pleasure of dealing with Duncan and Simon who were both very professional and helpful. When we move up the ladder we'll definitely be using Castles and will be recommending them to our friends and family.
They also gave us a little hamper as a moving in present which I thought was a nice touch.
These guys give estate agents a good name!

I would like to thank Duncan, and all at Castles, for the way in which they helped with the purchase of my new house. The moving in pack is genius, very well thought out, and helpful especially the sweets as I have a vaery sweet tooth. Purely for their attention to detail I would recommend Castles to anyone. My thanks, Mike

After a few false starts with other Estate Agents and almost being at the point of giving up trying to sell our flat, we decided to go to Castles for one last go - this turned out to be a really good decision and one we wished we had made much earlier!!
We mainly dealt with Simon & Duncan at Castles who were both friendly, enthusiastic and most importantly very committed to selling our property which felt very different from our experience with other agents.
We also purchased a property via Castles and Duncan in particular was fantastic at helping to sort out any issues that came up on either our sale or purchase and made sure that everything kept moving - he really was very good and as a result we wouldn't hesitate to recommend Castles to anyone else, thank you!!

Penny & Tracey were simply fantastic. I've had a few bad experiences with agents in the past but the team at Castles looked after the whole process of finding and moving a new tenant in. From start to finish Tracey was friendly, professional and extremely efficient. They made the whole experience painfree and I would not hesitate to use them again or recommend them to others. Thanks, Sue.

David and I would like to thank you, and all at Castles, for the way in which you facilitated the purchase of Guildford House, and the help we had in what was a major move for us.
The moving in pack was much appreciated too - very well thought out, and helpful.
Perhaps we should have kept the wine until we had finished unpacking all the boxes, but as that would probably take several weeks we enjoyed it on our first evening!

Our first viewings were with Charlie who I found extremely friendly, professional, honest and listened to what our requirements were. On finding a property shown to us by Charlie, the team who looked after us moving forward proved to be efficient and helpful and Steve kept us up to date regularly.
We would absolutely recommend Castles to prospective buyers.Was this review helpful? Yes

All the staff at the Farnham office handled the sale of my house with efficiency and professionalism at all times.
The knowledge that the staff displayed filled me with confidence, and they put me at ease and gave me assurance throughout the whole process, which included several external ‘bumpy’ moments.
My heartfelt thanks go to the whole team!

We have been pleased with the professional way in which our sale was handled by Castles from taking the particulars to getting the property onto the market and actively using their contacts, and a variety of promotional avenues, to find a buyer. We were impressed with Castles’ ability to find a buyer, and secure a satisfactory offer, within 7 weeks. Perhaps most importantly, they were able to gauge the market well which resulted in a sales price over 17% higher than the asking price recommended to us by a another well known local agent who we had also initially considered to handle the sale. Altogether a most satisfactory conclusion to a largely trouble free experience which was less stressful than we had expected it to be.

I found the estate agent Simon who came to carry out a valuation on my property to be very patronising. He talked down to me and I felt it was because of my age (I'm only 24) and to an extent gender as he kept telling me 'anecdotes' about daft things women in his life had done. I had a bad experience with the Farnham branch of Castles about 3 years ago when I was property hunting and I found the estate agent Charlie very rude.
I'm afraid that I will not be using them again for anything!
