Due to pressure on them from my ex husband I was left high and dry by the Estate Agents in Stowmarket who were handling the property. I contacted Jo (late one night form here in Australia) and she instantly took on the job of sorting things out.

Jo had given us a quote initially, and I regret now not using her straight away.
She has always solved any issues with the minimum of fuss and has treated both of us with tact and diplomacy.

The house has been let constantly since she took over (compared with the previous Estate Agents who only managed about 3 months in 14).

The team are prompt, polite and professional and I believe they treat the tenants well too. I thoroughly recommend them.

Dreadful estate agent. Would not trust the owner. Sold us one of her own properties whilst incorrectly filling in property forms. Proceed with caution. Go with any other estate agent than this one. Be very careful....

What agent could do to change your mind?
Clearer communication - one point of contact for customers Do not assume that all offer correspondence should be sent to both parties, or that both parties are married and have the same name No contradictions in what is being asked for Emails took 3-5 hours to arrive from agency: email setup appears to be inadequate for business use Be very clear in emails if an offer is accepted or not Be more clear about what is expected in a satisfactory offer from the get-go - changing the goalposts midway through raises suspicions Give customers the benefit of the doubt: they want to do business with you and have no intention of messing you or the vendor around. However, it is impossible to organize a mortgage application in <24 hours if you have not clearly indicated that an offer has been accepted. Do not request sensitive personal information (ID, DIP) until vendor is prepared to accept the offer

It was assumed that this review had been rectified by the reviewer, as all issues had been discussed and resolved and these first time buyers did purchase the property concerned. As they did not return to correct this negative review I feel compelled to reply to the comments. The gentleman leaving the review was not the person who negotiated the purchase of the property. The lady concerned (his partner) was difficult to reach as we were unable to telephone her during office hours and her work ...
