You get what you pay for! If you pay for nothing, you literally get nothing. We sold quickly, or so we thought! The good things about Strike is the easy process to sort viewings. Everything after that is a nightmare. We accepted an offer from someone Strike said was good to go, but we are still ... Read Full Review

I cannot believe what they do. It is a joke. I joined after the valuation which was done by a woman from kind of local area. However after paying the upfront fee, which I chose the premium, the nightmare started. As many said there was a huge communication issue with them. A problem is that we ... Read Full Review

Pathetic service I went for a viewing, and made an offer, that was accepted. Lots of calls during the process, and had requested for an email to be sent to align a call, due to not miss each other and call reception. During the early stages, did the verification, and aligned all paperwork ontime ... Read Full Review

Utter garbage, unreliable, dishonest and useless are the most positive words that I have to say about them. They really are the Cowboys of the industry. Avoid at all costs unless you have ample free time to be messed about. Twice they cancelled appointments last minute, when I then called to speak ... Read Full Review
