EXCELLENT Based on 275 reviews Samantha Tseng16/09/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had a very good experience working with Shaz during our recent flat purchase. Shaz is very responsive and pretty fast in getting back to us, and always clear and to the point. Shaz helped guide us through the various stages of the purchase process, from making an offer to completion. The communication was handled professionally, and his relationship with the seller proved helpful as we were first-time buyers with 100+ questions here and there. Shaz was consistently friendly and approachable throughout the process, making what could have been a stressful experience much smoother. While not everything was perfect, we were pleased with the service provided. Manda Glanfield16/09/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've bought and sold many times and I wouldn't go with any other estate agent. They are not like other estate agents - yes, they want to sell your property; but no, they don't want to list it at an inflated price to boost their profile across the area. They are a family firm, not a chain. My experience was: - Communication great (reply immediately); - Realistic sale price; - Multiple viewings; - They sold my property! What more do you want? Only remains to say that the team are uniformly great, they managed the inevitably long conveyancing process (due to a longish chain) professionally, respectfully, calmly and efficiently. Thank you, Ben and the team! Jason Cornish15/09/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We chose Brooks Estate Agents to sell our mother’s house based on their in depth knowledge of the area and an empathy with our specific situation. They are joined up as a team, professional and able to step in to sustain the momentum during the conveyancing period. I would highly recommend them. Yizhen Jiang11/08/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Brooks helps us in purchasing the flat, and today we got our key! The team is helpful, especially thanks to Shaz , Robert and his team. If you have special requests for solicitors , they will also help you in finding a one . If you want to buy , they can be your option! Recommend! Catherine Deacon04/08/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. As a first time buyer who was unfamiliar with the process, Shaz was friendly and supportive throughout, and always happy to help with quick replies to my questions - thank you! Matt Brown30/07/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing people first business. Everyone there cares about their clients, and give great and valuable advice. The best out there. Judy Williams14/07/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Both Holly and Jade are professional at the same time as being warm and friendly. They are both hardworking - working hard to find us the right property and at the same time finding the right tenants for their landlords. I am certain they will find us a home soon. Alice Summers11/07/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was hoping to switch my rental management to Brooks (but haven’t been able to due to retaining tenants sourced by another agency), and the conversations I had with Jade were so helpful, proactive, professional and thorough. She is very knowledgable and personable and I would highly recommend her. Coco Haroun04/07/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I put my flat up for rent with Brooks as i had purchased it through them two years earlier and really appreciated the personable and warm team, my experience was great and really speedy, with everything being really clear from the outset, special thanks to Jade and Holly for making everything so easy.
