When deciding to sell our home earlier this year we chose to use the Estate Agent Belvoir. We had considered online agents but felt a traditional agent would be better for us due to the fees being paid on completion. Jamie Bennett came out to do a valuation and explain the processes and fee structure, which we thought was very reasonable and competitive. My wife and I were very impressed with his punctuality and professionalism, and general friendliness when dealing with our inexperience. Jamie then booked in for the photos and returned with a very impressive camera system that captured fantastic images of our property. Once all pictures were done the property went to market and we very quickly had a number of interested parties. We accepted a full price offer 3 days after the house being on the market. Jamie even talked us through the positions of each of the buyers to help us make the most informed decision. Once we had accepted the offer we then began dealing with the Belvoir Move Manager Natalie Painter. Natalie was very helpful and courteous, and kept us updated on everything that was going on with the sale. Additionally, Natalie also kept us updated with the whole chain, and when some of the chains solicitors were having communication problems, she stepped in to keep the whole process moving. Had it not been for Natalie I think that we would not have completed before Christmas, or may have even lost the whole sale. Due to delays my wife and I had decided to break the chain for our onward purchaser ourselves, but Natalie still spoke with our purchase chain to give us updates on their progress. Being honest we had more updates from our Agent than the sellers Agent. Once we got to completion Natalie gave us all of the information we needed to make this as seamless as possible, and even provided suggestions on who to contact post sale to ensure all relevant parties were updated. Again very helpful as there were several we had not considered ourselves. Overall the service provided by Belvoir was exceptional, especially from Jamie and Natalie, and should we have need of an Agent again in the future we both hope that Belvoir, Jamie and Natalie would be there to help.PositiveQuality, Professionalism
We have recently come to the end of a 6+ year tenancy with Belvoir. We knew from the start that they were a good agency, when our washing machine needed attention shortly after moving in, and was sorted incredibly quickly. They are always helpful and attentive, as well as being thorough. Special mentions go to Jo, who dealt with our post-tenancy check out both fairly and quickly (as well as answering our queries beforehand), and Carol (with whom I spoke to on the phone prior to our notice being handed in - she was absolutely lovely to talk to). Thank you, Belvoir staff. We wish you all the best.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value
I highly recommend Belvoir Basingstoke who have handled the sale of my property. From the start I was impressed with Jamie's honest, up front valuation of my property followed by promptly marketing. Potential buyers were vetted which meant fewer but more serious viewings with no time wasters this was a big plus point for me. The communication and dedication from the whole team has been superb. So a big thank you to Jamie, Emily and Natalie - your professional service has been outstanding from start to finish.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value
I was a first time renter but Belvoir made the process seamless. Jo Jones put me at ease during checking-in and checking-out and so it was less stressful than I had anticipated. I always felt that the interests of the tenant were as important as those of the landlord. Everyone in the office were also great at responding to emails and getting admin things sorted. The return of the deposit process was initiated promptly at the end of my tenancy. Would highly recommend Belvoir.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism
We worked with Natalie for the purchase of our new house, and she was absolutely amazing! Very professional and responsive, she was really good at chasing both sides to make sure the process wasn't unduly delayed and kept us fully up to date at all points during the sale. She was also really friendly and it was a pleasure to speak with her. My sister is going through the same process with another estate agents and her experience has been below average. I felt that Belvoir Basingstoke have gone above and beyond with their services, we even received a house warming box upon collecting the keys which was a really lovely touch and contained a few of the essentials! Much appreciated! Even though we weren't the original customer of theirs (the seller was) we felt very well cared for. If I need to sell or purchase a house in the future, I would definitely like to give them a call. Thank you to Natalie for being so great and for helping make the moving process that much easier!PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism
We purchased a property being sold through Belvoir. From the beginning of the process everyone we spoke to was very helpful and responsive. Once our offer was accepted, Natalie, Move Manager, gave us regular updates and consistently chased all solicitors in the chain to get us moved. I received more updates from Natalie than I did from my own estate agent and solicitor. Natalie was amazing! We also received a nice welcome box when we picked up the keys. Would definitely use Belvoir in the futurePositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism
I am so thankful to Belvoir for always sorting out any issues I have so quickly - most recently over the last year they have been fantastic getting issues sorted so quickly even with the covid restrictions. I have had dealings with both sales and lettings departments for over 5 years now and would highly recommend to anyone. They have really gone above and beyond for me :)
Letting with Belvoir was a great experience from the start when Tracey showed us around the property to the admin side of signing the contract, property checks and advice on giving notice was handled professionally. The rentals team is really friendly and always available for help. It was a great experience and very different to the last agency we let with, in what can be a stressful process it really does matter who you rent with and I would highly recommend Belvoir.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Belvoir were amazing! They were our vendor's estate agent, not ours but they were a lot more helpful than my own estate agent. It was a tricky sale from start to finish due to stamp duty deadlines and my solicitor's incompetence and without Natalie at Belvoir, I really don't know how it would have happened in time. She was constantly there for me as much as her vendors. She always kept me in the loop and helped the whole process go through, constantly chasing everyone and going out of her way to make things happen. I couldn't have got through it without her. And then, just an hour after we moved in, we received a lovely gift box with everything we needed for our first night in a new home: tea, yummy biscuits, bin bags etc. I can't recommend them enough. I have been telling everyone about them!
