This company is flawed. They are not set up to sell property during a challenging period as we now see in the UK. We have experienced Account Managers that don't take any active engagement in marketing the property, over-inflated valuations, attempts to pass us off ...

We are not typical sellers as we have a number of properties. However I can say based on many dealings in both acquiring property and disposal of property Strike nailed it. The web interface is very on trend and easy. From my first conversation with ...

Terrible experience! I truly regret paying Strike £699. It's been a disaster from the start. I'm now having to list my property with another agent so that's £699 down the drain. They don't answer the phone or call don't call you back - If even had people ...

Thank you! I have experienced exactly the same thing, trying to purchase through them. Absolute nightmare - no returned emails, and a few days ago one of their representatives hung up on me too! Shambles! Jan 11, 2024

Be careful using strike paid for my photographs of my property now being told I have to pay again.
They are good at charging everything else is absolute rubbish.
Remember even Dick Turpin used a mask while taking your money

Strike failed to sell my property. Not charging a percentage fee means they have no 'skin in the game', so the model fails. They claimed to provide a single point of contact but this kept changing. No-one had any interest in getting the best price ...

Totally agree with every bit of this review. We sold at the end of may now nearly the end of October and have no idea where we are in the process as nobody ever answers a phone or replies to an email. Pay more money and use someone else
