In this day and age women do make choices…. Maybe not in Hillier and Wilson’s business or family but certainly in mine and many of my friends. There is a law against this kind of discrimination toward me today and cannot believe that it occurred. It all started with my request to view a property that they were advertising. I was called and they stated as I was a Mrs there must be a Mr and what’s his name!?!? I found that strange but passed on my husband’s details. I then was contacted by them for a sooner viewing however when I said I would be coming alone they said I couldn’t as I needed to view with my Husband! I immediately told them that the original booking, I would have attending alone aswell. They immediately said that they’d not allow that one either, as I needed to attend with my husband! I was passed on to the equally rude male owner who then said it was a matter of lack of staff and them not wanting to do a second viewing. I promptly told him if I liked the property and offered, we’d require a second viewing anyway and he scoffed at me. Clearly showing it was, in fact that I was a woman viewing alone that they found unacceptable. Finally what made me not pursue was the male owners statement that due to my call and disagreement he would make sure only he was at the viewing and not his staff, I found this both a bullying tactic, a male chauvinistic attitude and frankly both unacceptable and intimating to say the least. Hence I didn’t book the viewing.

The most rude and unhelpful estate agent I have ever dealt with. Whenever we tried to view a property she offered us one appointment. If we couldn't make that we were faced with a brick wall. She never tried to fit us in as other agents do. She would not allow one of us to view a property ... Read Full Review

After initially meeting Tony we had good first impressions and high expectations. Well, once our house was sold STC we heard nothing. We even had to instigate viewings of other suitable properties with them; we were expecting them to give us the heads up (as they had promised). But no. As the sale ... Read Full Review
Keep us updated frequently. Advised us of suitable properties on the market. Keep to their promises.
Very expensive given the small amount of work required.

Hmm... I have read the other reviews and I think people will simply make up their own minds. I can only give an account of my experience of Hillier & Wilson. They first sold a house for us 5 years ago in an incredibly difficult market. They took time getting excellent photos of the house - both ... Read Full Review

It was not one thing they did but a number of issues! Let's start with my first viewing where I went shopping to get out of the way to come back and find the estate agent had left the house unlocked and had left! I was fuming but having only just started the process I gave them the benefit of the ... Read Full Review
