A fantastic Estate agent, Baron's helped us secure our first home. From start to finish the service was wonderful. Precise, clear and fast communication. A special thank you to Charlie who saw to it that our ever evasive solicitors were duely chased again and again. 11/10 would recommendPositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism
We purchased a property marketed by Barons in Basingstoke. Due to several complications within the chain the process took approximately seven months and was hugely frustrating. It often felt as if Charlie at Barons was the only person keeping us updated. We massively appreciated his regular communications. Many thanks Charlie for going above and beyond to do what you could to minimise the stress of the transaction for us.PositiveResponsiveness
I cannot praise Barons Estate agents enough. We were aware of their expertise prior to selling our property with them. We bought a house that Barons were marketing. They did far more for us than the estate agents that sold our property. Barons were continually “chasing up the chain”, something our previous agents failed miserably on. They really bend over backwards to see the process through from beginning to end, with regular updates on the process and interventions to get things moving. A great team, I thoroughly recommend them.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value
We chose Barons to sell our house as we bought it through them 28 years earlier. We were delighted with the service provided, from when they valued the house through to completion. Everyone we dealt with was knowledgeable, friendly and polite. We appreciated the weekly updates so we knew where we were on a regular basis. A special thanks to Charlie who looked after us once the sale had been agreed. We had several hiccups with our purchase, and Charlie kept us up to date throughout the process and went above an beyond to help and reassure us along the way. Thank you Team Barons Dawna and Darren YulePositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value
Having failed to sell with a large estate agent, I spoke with several local estate agents but never felt confident in their ability to sell. Barons were a breath of fresh air. From the beginning, their staff were professional, experienced and knowledgeable. Unlike the large estate agency, Barons maintained regular, meaningful communication throughout the sale process. Whenever difficulties arised on the buyer's side, they were efficient in resolving matters. Compared to other local estate agents, they ensured I obtained a high price for my property rather than go for a low price for a quick sale. I would be very happy to use Barons again. They are great to work with when selling your property and I highly recommend the use of their services.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism, Value
I would highly recommend Barons to anyone wishing to buy/sell their property. They are such a friendly, professional company who helped me every step of the way in my transaction which was not an easy task. Their perseverance and help was very reassuring and nothing was too much trouble. Lovely bunch of people!PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value
Barons Estate Agents stepped up when I asked them to take over the sale of my property and within 4 days had a buyer. My point of contact was Charlie Mather and he updated me at every stage of the process with regular calls and updates. He managed the relationship between myself and the buyer in a professional manner and even calmed my ruffled feathers when, at one point, I wanted to pull out of the negotiations. I would definitely recommend Barons Estate Agents if you want a seamless process in selling your property. True professionals from start to end. Thank you for all your help.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value
Absolutely the best decision ever choosing the team at Barons to sell my flat. We tried to sell privately and it fell through so approached Barons in November 2021 to help us. Probably the worst time of year to try to sell a property but with Patrick’s help we sold it within a month. Absolutely loved working with him- he’s just great. We were then passed to Charlie in the post sale team who also didn’t disappoint- he worked very hard to ensure the process kept moving and gave us very regular updates. Very pleased - worth every penny - thank you both.
Although working on behalf of our vendors primarily, we had a lovely experience buying our first home through Barons. The interactions we had when viewing were lovely, totally honest with the houses and not pushy like other estate agents. We saw the same person at multiple viewings and it was lovely as he remembered who we were. Even gave me a wave and said hello when I picked up the keys! When making officers, we spoke with Patrick who was great at communicating through our channel of choice, keeping me up to date with what was happening. Then working with Charlie who was professional throughout and adaptive to give me what I needed, whether that be a kick up the backside or just to reassure me. I went through a lot of personal stress during the purchase which could have lead to disaster but Charlie's professionalism, efficiency and brilliant listening skills saw us through. Barons will definitely be our first point of call when we decide its time to move on!PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism
We were buying a property via Barons & found their company to be professional and efficient. Liam John in the sales department in particular is a true asset to the team. We found Liam’s approach professional, courteous and his friendly manner is lovely & not your typical ‘estate agent’. If we ever need to search or sell a property in the future, then we shall definitely return to Barons, with the hope Liam is still part of the team :) fantastic all around :)

Barons Estate Agents was formed in 1988 by Kevin Penfold & Trevor Lee, with the office being opened in February of that year. That same office is still open and thriving at Winton Square in Basingstoke. Both directors started their career at large independent estate agencies in the early 1980’s, working their way up the career ladder from trainees, to office managers, and finally regional managers. Along the way gaining extensive knowledge of how to deal with a range of properties, people and the ever-changing legal system. Kevin & Trevor met whilst working at Parkers Independent Estate Agency and developed a great working relationship. Parkers was eventually taken over by Legal & General; keen not to enter the corporate environment and all that goes with it, Kevin & Trevor hatched plans to establish a local independent estate agent that would go the extra mile for their clients. Having undertaken extensive market research, they decided that Basingstoke was the place to be. Starting the agency with themselves and two other employees they hit the ground running by selling their first property in Brighton Hill and haven’t looked back since. Throughout the years they have witnessed ever changing market places, large property developments being built and ever-changing regulations and laws. At Barons Independent Estate Agents, we are passionate about property and pride ourselves on decades of successful selling in Basingstoke and the surrounding villages. Our team of negotiators are approachable, skilful and extremely knowledgeable, boasting over 75 years experience of estate agency in the Basingstoke and surrounding markets. Our unrivalled understanding of the area allows us to find the perfect property for customers, whether they are looking for an elegant Victorian town house or apartment in the town centre, or even a cottage in the Old Basing. We also advise on buy-to-let, investment properties or the purchase of a second home. Our experienced staff, all formally trained by Kevin & Trevor mean those selling through Barons Estate Agents can expect an excellent level of service. As leading residential independent estate agents in the surrounding area, we have a large property portfolio and being registered with us ensures that you will be contacted by telephone, email or text on all new properties that are coming to the market.

We firmly focus on maximising the exposure of our properties with quality photography, floorplans and high quality brochures in conjunction with prominent advertising on the internet and in local press when necessary. We give regular progress updates, essential proactive sales advice and informative feedback. Our office is highly visible in a prime Basingstoke town centre location – the first port of call for those looking to relocate. We are fully committed to delivering an excellent service to vendors, delicately balanced by our desire to help our purchasers find their ideal property. This continues throughout the conveyancing process, and often beyond! www.baronsestateagents.co.uk
