Over the last couple of years we have used Jo and her team for two property sales and for managing a rental property. Our queries were always dealt with promptly and efficiently. On calling them they would always know exactly where they were at with the sale/let and would chase buyers ... Read Full Review

I used Purbecks and Co to purchase my first home alone. Everyone I spoke to was helpful and professional. I met Joy for the first house viewing made me feel relaxed and not rushed so I could spend time I needed to ensure the property was the right one for me. When going through the purchase the ...

We have previously been a tenant through Purbeck & Co for the past couple of years. From the day we enquired about the property, to the day we moved in, and now moved out we found Jo and her team to be welcoming, friendly and very helpful. We have recently purchased our first property ... Read Full Review

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 ... Read Full Review

Purbecks had an excellent floorplan and a really impressive level of information about the prospective property available on Rightmove. The response when we requested a viewing was swift and accommodating and Luke, who showed us around, was impressive in his knowledge of the ... Read Full Review
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

When I was looking for a house to rent in March 2009, I met Jo Fox from Purbeck & Co. I had never rented privately before and was unsure of how to go about things. Jo was fantastic and more than helpful. She answered the many questions I had professionally. Jo is very approachable and friendly. ... Read Full Review

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 ... Read Full Review

Kindly note that legally, letting agents need to publish information about their tenancy fees, government-approved redress schemes and client money protection schemes on their website and on third party websites (on which agents are listed). For properties to lease/rent in England, agents need to keep this information up to date and precise on allAgents or specify within the property description.
