From start to finish Barons Estate Agents have been excellent. They were organised and efficient when advertising our house, professional when completing tours of the house and excellent at communicating throughout. Once we had a buyer Charlie was fantastic with the after sales, he kept our solicitors and connecting solicitors / estate agents moving in the right direction. The whole team made house selling and buying less stressful and much more manageable with working full time. We would (and have already) recommend Barons to anyone.

Thank you Barons for an outstanding service. You were amazing, you provided a very professional and friendly service, which made the selling of our parents property a lot less stressful. You sold our parents property within a week of putting it on the market during the Covid-19 pandemic and we got the asking price. Kevin the Sales Representative was very patience with us with regards to putting the house on the market as there was a lot of re-homing of our parents treasures that they had collected over the years. Special thank you to Charlie, who chased my Solicitors, the buyer and their Solicitors and kept us updated with all changes that took place. He went above and beyond many times to ensure the sale went through as smoothly as possible. I highly recommend Barons. Thank you
Prior to our recent move we were guilty of believing all estate agents fitted the typical stereotype and thought that we would simply sell via an online agent, save a fortune and be in control all the way. However, after our valuation meeting we decided to market through Barons; a decision which paid dividends. Our transaction was turbulent and full of challenges which were beyond our control. Throughout the process Barons remained absolutely committed to us and worked tirelessly and relentlessly to get us moved. Their exceptional level of service didn’t waver from day 1 through to eventual completion in month 7. Barons went significantly above and beyond what a seller should reasonably expect from their agent. A friendly and helpful team, completely down to earth and ready and willing to get stuck in and support their clients. Always on the end of the phone whatever the hour or day of the week. Extremely well connected within the local area and able to leverage these relationships to get things moving. Reflecting back we’re not sure how we could have done it without Barons and recommend them wholeheartedly to any potential buyers.
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.
As a buyer only , I couldn’t praise Barons anymore. Both Patrick and Charlie were amazing from start to finish. Professional , knowledgeable and honest which I must admit was not something I expected. Would definitely use again in the future. Thankyou for all your help
As first time buyers the process was daunting at first but made a whole lot easier thanks to Charlie’s help. From the start to the very end, Charlie went above and beyond to make us feel completely at ease. The best thing to note was the excellent communication, we were kept in the loop with weekly updates. I Would really highly recommend Barons!
Had a bad experience with another estate agent. Using Barons was alike a breath for fresh air. They didn’t overvalue the house to flatter me, just based on good marketing and local info. Great comms and sold the house within 3 days. We then had a long wait until our new property was ready, but every week they kept us informed via a call. If you want to sell your house and have great customer service, then use Barons.
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.
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.
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 recommend
About Barons Estate Agents
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. With a vast depth of local knowledge we are able to guide you to the right areas, good schools, amenities and bus/train services, to name a few. 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
