(94 reviews)
26th May 2026 (19 days ago)We had an excellent experience with John Alexander and couldn’t recommend them highly enough. They successfully sold two of our houses and provided amazing service from start to finish. Everyone we dealt with was extremely friendly, professional, and dedicated to getting the best outcome for us. We would like to give an extra special mention to Debbie, who dealt with our purchases and was incredibly professional, helpful, and supportive throughout the process. We also want to thank Danny and Ruby, who truly went the extra mile when selling our homes too. Their communication was excellent — they always picked up messages quickly, responded promptly, and made us feel genuinely heard and supported every step of the way. They all worked incredibly hard to sell both properties and gave us the extra care and attention that made such a difference during what can be a stressful process. We’re so grateful for all of their hard work and would absolutely use John Alexander again in the future to sell our home. Thank you!
29th May 2026 (16 days ago)Thankyou to all the great team working in Colchester, shining example of what an estate agent should be!

Berefords they are your stars!!
8th Jun 2026 (6 days ago)Had great service from Paul Buck regarding a property I have on the market with them. Pro active approach to helping get the property sold and suggested some good ideas for us to try. Including a walk through of the appt. Just hope it will all work for the sale
22nd May 2025 (1 year ago)Chris and Jo from Fenn Wright are both very experienced and professional and certainly know their stuff. They are both very friendly and approachable and were on hand to guide as and when was necessary. I would use them again to sell my house.
6th Jun 2026 (8 days ago)Millie has been very helpful, reliable and punctual throughout setting up and securing my tenancy agreement.- 29th May 2026 (16 days ago)I would like to share my positive feedback about the way Mel Rowlands who is a Property Manager at the Stanway office has been managing any issues with the property I am renting via Fenn Wright. Whenever, I have had an issue, Mel has ensured that the issues are handled promptly. After I get an automated formal notification of complaint - I get a follow-up acknowledgement. There is also a follow-up either by a call or email or a sms to confirm if the issue has been dealt with. This is reassuring. Whenever, there have been delays from the contractor assigned to the repair – Mel has followed up with me and tried her best to expedite the repair by following-up with the contractor, and then updating me. Whenever – there has been an issue (like the recent one with a door) – Mel has ensured that the right contractor was assigned, after the initial contractor did not do the complete job. Mel followed up with the next contractor and got the contractor to fix the issue with door. Overall, I am very satisfied with the way the Mel has handled any issues that I have had.

1st May 2026 (6 weeks ago)Couldn't be more helpful.A big thank you.
18th Nov 2023 (2 years ago)As many people said it earlier they removed all reviews as they were so bad. I can't find my personal one as well. They are still the same bunch of people who will try to rip you off on every single occasion. Please avoid at all cost. There are plenty good agencies out there
18th Apr 2026 (8 weeks ago)Unfortunately did not have a good experience. Poor communication. Experience on offer described when we signed up to them was not delivered. House was not sold but it was more the experience during this time that has led to this review.
22nd May 2026 (23 days ago)A huge thank you to Sam Wooldridge for all his help throughout our house purchase! Sam was incredibly supportive, responsive, and proactive from start to finish, always keeping communication flowing smoothly between ourselves and the sellers. Buying a property can be very stressful at times, but Sam made the process feel far more manageable and was always there to help chase updates and answer any questions we had. We really appreciated his professionalism, patience, and dedication throughout the process, and we’re so grateful for all his hard work in helping us reach exchange and completion. We would absolutely recommend Sam to anyone looking to purchase a property!

23rd May 2026 (22 days ago)Always an interesting day with something for everyone love this auction all the staff are professional and willing to help. Well done
3rd Jun 2026 (11 days ago)Although the home checks every six months feel very invasive and uncomfortable, Sara our property inspector always acts very professionally is very respectful and friendly, making an uncomfortable experience bearable.
2nd Jan 2026 (23 weeks ago)Dan and the team at Nicholas Percival Stanway were brilliant. We had already agreed a sale privately, meaning we had an admin-only deal, but our aims and timescale set a high bar which Dan didn’t hesitate to help us achieve and maintain. Great service, comms and advice, highly recommended.
Knight Residential - Colchester
5 Pappus House, Tollgate West, Tollgate Business Park, Stanway, Colchester, CO3 8AQ(132 reviews)
30th May 2026 (15 days ago)We’ve had the best experience with Knights residential. From the off set when we first met Chloe at a viewing for another property we wanted to sell our property through knights. Then every step of the process has been exactly what you’d wish for with a property sale. They listened to our preferences and did everything the way we wanted it- no unnecessary pushiness, great contact, quick responses and the best customer service. Chloe was amazing from the start and was the reason we were first drawn to Knights, David came and valued the property and took great photos, no lying to get us to go with them either- what he said we’d get we did, Josh was also great and kept us in the loop with our offer (out of office hours and during a very difficult day for the company when they said goodbye to their colleague- which was appreciated but not what we would have expected) then Lorraine their sales progressor worked so hard to get our sale through as smooth as possible- especially in the last week before exchange!! Not your typical estate agents, who push you to go with them, then contact you pointlessly with no information, tell you to drop the price because what they originally valued at wasn’t what it was worth anyway, then ghost you when the property is sold. When the day comes that we want to move again we would absolutely go with knights again and recommend them to anyone we know selling in the Colchester area!
9th Jun 2026 (5 days ago)Valued the house higher than other agents. Received an offer which I accepted at Asking Price within days.
16th Apr 2026 (8 weeks ago)GREAT COMPANY , HELPFUL KEPT US WELL INFORMED. A personal thanks to Barry, who steered us through, and always there to advise and help
2nd Jun 2026 (12 days ago)I couldn’t fault the service I have received from Elms Price. They have been so professional and communication has been excellent throughout the whole process. Nothing was too much trouble for them and all the viewings were completed by the agent. Andrew, Daryl and Cheryl were always contactable and kept me fully informed of progress. I totally recommend this company.
20th May 2026 (25 days ago)From day one, the whole experience has been smooth, stress-free, and genuinely pleasant. The team is friendly, approachable, and always quick to respond to any questions or issues we’ve had. Any maintenance requests were dealt with promptly and efficiently, and we’ve always felt like we were being taken seriously and looked after. Moving in was straightforward, and the communication throughout our tenancy has been excellent. It’s rare to find a letting agency that feels this organised and genuinely cares about its tenants, but Ezelet absolutely delivers. We’ve felt supported throughout and really appreciate the high level of service. We would happily recommend Ezelet to anyone looking for a reliable and professional letting agency! More power Ezelet.
30th Apr 2026 (6 weeks ago)Helpful
11th May 2026 (5 weeks ago)From the moment we were greeted at the branch to the final sale, we had a great experience throughout. Charlie, who came to value our house, was fantastic ,professional, informative, and approachable. Everyone involved in showing our house to potential buyers was equally impressive. Marcus, Zailo, Zoe, and Chloe were all knowledgeable about the property, well prepared, and professional when conducting viewings. The team at the Lexden branch are brilliant , always helpful, understanding, and professional. A special mention must go to Amy in sales progression, who was amazing from start to finish. She was incredibly patient, and although arranging the completion date took some persistence, Amy made it happen smoothly. Overall, we couldn’t be happier with the service we received what a great experience!Harris and Wood - Chesterwell

8th Jun 2026 (6 days ago)Excellent service from Harris & Wood. They were key in getting the deal agreed and worked hard to keep the whole chain moving. Communication was clear and consistent throughout, and they were proactive in pushing things along to reach exchange and completion.
1st Jun 2026 (13 days ago)We dealt with Mr Richard Baker who from the first meeting was very professional, he explained everything in plain and understandable terms ie. How the property market was at the moment and that he was confident that he would sell our property , there was not a doubt about he's commitment. Throughout the process he and he's staff Lily & Anya were always very informative and helpful. My wife and I would wholeheartedly recommend Durden & Hunt as the Agents to rely on to sell your property.
