EXCELLENT Based on 282 reviews Posted on Maggie de Dominicis26/11/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Shaz is an exceptional estate agent; from the first viewing to completion, he was present and competent. He played a crucial role as a bridge between the seller and us. We are extremely happy with the service we received and will likely commission Brooks when we decide to sell. We highly recommend this agency; it’s not the classic high-street agency that only thinks about profit and numbers, but is attentive and knowledgeable.Posted on Sophie Davies24/11/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This review is for Brooks' sales dept: I had previously marketed my property with the large nationwide agent down the road, with no success. Brooks' strategy was totally different, and it paid off. I achieved a significantly higher price than the other agent was suggesting I drop to (after already having lowered the price). With Brooks I felt confident they were prioritising the sale of my property, they kept me informed and updated at all times. They were professional and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend Brooks, Shaz, and the team.Posted on Kwame Graves-Okokon26/10/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Even though I decided to move out of London anyway, each week Holly repeatedly sent me every update in the neighbourhood and beyond within my stated price range; what a legend!!!Posted on Debbie Cotti17/10/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can’t thank Shaz enough for all his help throughout my home-buying journey! The process first started about a year ago when he showed me the flat, and from that very first viewing he was professional, pleasant, and incredibly knowledgeable. He kept me updated at every stage, always taking the time to explain things clearly and offer the best advice. Even when things felt overwhelming, he remained patient and supportive, which made the whole experience so much smoother. I finally completed on my home yesterday and genuinely so grateful. If you’re looking for an estate agent who truly cares and goes the extra mile, I highly recommend Shaz!Posted on Andrew Turbayne17/10/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Shaz and Ben helped us find our first home and we're very understanding throughout the process. Really appreciate the kind work fellas : )Posted on Sandra Lawman07/10/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Shaz and the team provided an excellent tailored service and everything went as smoothly as possiblePosted on Debbie Purkiss26/09/2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was recommended Brooks from a friend and I’m so glad I was! Having previously used a chain estate agents and not being thrilled with the service. I was so happy with all the staff at Brooks and their dedication, not to mention always keeping me in the loop and regular updates. Would 100% recommend 10/10 service. Thank you so much!Posted on 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.Posted on 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!
