A fantastic service from start to finish, property was sold much quicker than anticipated due to Balgores professionalism.
Special thanks to Ellie Howlett:
Ellie worked hard to find a buyer. She kept us updated throughout and even ensured there was someone just as competent to keep us informed when she went on leave.

Balgores have been fantastic in the sale of my Dad’s house. Ross and Georgia (& the rest of the team behind them) were extremely professional, knowledgeable and organised with regular updates and pushing to ensure everything moved ahead steadily.
After 2 short chains collapsed with a different agent we lost a year in delays, so I wish we had taken the whole process with Balgores sooner.
We would recommend Balgores 100%.
Thank you Ross and Georgia. We wish you all the very best. Xx

Buying our house was a very smooth process from the time we viewed the house until we completed the purchase. We were informed of all stages along the way. Thank you Balgores special mention to Ellie and Allannah!

Balgores was the second agent we engaged after a rocky start with another agent. They were unstoppable in finding the right buyer for us, as we were in a complex new-build onward chain meaning there’d be a wait for our house which resulted in multiple offers but conflicting timing expectations. We were so impressed with their attention to detail (I think maybe they knew our house better than we did by the time we sold!). We were so impressed how Balgores went through this (what felt to us at times as painful!) journey with us with patience and perseverance needed for a complex sale. We achieved the amount we wanted so I would highly recommend speaking with Balgores if you’ve had low-ball valuations from other agents in Chelmsford more concerned with their own targets & a quick sale! Our next door neighbour is considering selling so of course we had no hesitation recommending Balgores to them too. Thank you!

Absolutely clueless from start to finish.
I viewed a property and had my offer accepted. After paying £300 for a survey, it turned out the property was a non-standard construction house, which was not mentioned anywhere on the original listing.
When I raised this with them, they denied that it was non-standard and refused to reimburse me for the survey cost. I decided not to proceed with the purchase because of this.
Then, after the property remained unsold for around six months, they finally added a note to the listing stating that it was non-standard construction.
A complete waste of time and money.

As first time buyers, our experience with Balgores was great. Their communication was 10/10 and we felt very informed throughout the whole process. We appreciated all the referrals from them which made the whole process easier across finding a broker and a surveyor. Would definitely choose them as our estate agent if we decide to sell in the future.
Special thanks to Ellie Howlett:
Ellie is fantastic. She’s super knowledgeable which was very much appreciated as we are first time buyers, but more importantly, she’s very personable and easy to talk to. Couldn’t fault anything and wouldn’t hesitate to use Balgores again.

Special thanks to Ellie Howlett :
Ellie was fantastic throughout what must have felt like a lifetime working with our property and our onward new build! Thank you Ellie, you’ve been a superstar – professional, personable and very easy to work with through this journey. Despite you working with multiple sellers and buyers, you always made us feel that we were top of your priority list, so thank you Ellie!

Allannah was exceptional from the very first meeting – she was tenacious and driven, delivering a clear sales plan and ensured our property was positioned in the best possible way. She worked tirelessly to market and show our home to a wide range of potential buyers, sharing useful and relevant feedback, and helping us in achieving our target sale price.
Special thanks to Allannah Buckroyd:
Allannah is truly unique in how she delivered for customers. We had open and consistent dialogue, productive and constructive feedback following viewings, and helpful and engaged support throughout our sale process.
She’s simply superb and we couldn’t be happier with our decision to work with her

We are currently in the process of leasing a property through Balgores, and the experience has been excellent from the start. After searching for a property for a while, we found communication with other estate agents so frustrating. However, from the moment we started dealing with Balgores, the communication has been outstanding. Ben has kept us informed every step of the way, and always quick to pick up the phone and update us.
We would highly recommend Balgores to anyone looking for an estate agent.
Special thanks to Ben Vainola:
Ben has been a pleasure to work with throughout the process. He has kept us fully informed at every stage and taken the time to explain everything clearly. Any documents we needed were sent over within minutes, and Ben was always available to answer any questions we had. He regularly checked in with updates. We never had to chase at all. I’m so pleased with the level of service we have received so far

From the start of my enquiry, trying to find the right home Ben had made sure I had options to view and was quick to get me in so I didn’t miss out,
He showed me two properties on a very warm Saturday, I was able to view one property straight after the other which made me feel that he was trying to make sure I could make a decision whilst the memories of the first was still in my head, this lead to a great comparison. From me making my decision on which one to go for he made sure he kept actively in contact with me through the whole process, and today I get my keys to my hopeful forever home.
Special thanks to Ben Vainola:
The most profession estate agent I have dealt with, very punctual, pro active and re active to make sure everything is being done and I’m being kept in the loop, could not recommend Ben high enough, he is an asset to the team and has made my experience one to remember, he’s made a man that felt he was loosing all hope have a second wind and supported him through, thank you Ben keep up the good work.

I’ve been in the property industry for 40 years so when it comes to selling your own home, you know what you are looking for.
Joe Hayes is and has always been very professional, he does what he says he is going to do.
Honesty is key, there is no point telling you an inflated sale price, you are just wasting everyone’s time.
Great communication, a driven mindset and the best selling agent in Brentwood.
I would highly recommend the Brentwood team.
Under offer within 10 days and we have now exchanged contracts.
Balgores’s should be renamed Balglorys ????
