Having moved 6 times during the last 25yrs, we have a fair amount of experience in dealing with the various aspects of moving house. Our first 3 homes we sold through high street agents with the next sold privately and our last sold through an online agency, whilst carrying out all the viewings ourselves. Our experience with the high street was not great, hence the change of direction. When we decided to sell our current home, we initially tried a high street agent and an online agency, trying to keep the costs low, with very poor results. We finally decided to try a more upmarket high street agent, accepting the higher fees, in the expectation that they would provide a better selling experience, and chose Breckon & Breckon. From the moment John Bouwer came to appraise our house and explain to us what to expect from their service, we knew we had made the right choice. The marketing package created was first class with some fabulous photos by Georgia and a very interesting and detailed description of the property created by Julia. For the first time ever, we decided to let the agent carry out all the viewings, which worked extremely well with excellent communication and feedback before and after each viewing carried out by Alex, Madison and Sarah. Fortunately, we had two viewings which generated acceptable offers with Alex negotiating on our behalf to secure an offer of the full asking price. From accepting the offer, through to exchange of contracts, Alex has continued to provide an excellent service as a “go between” the various parties keeping us all up to date with effective communications. In summary, we are extremely pleased with the level of service received, particularly from Alex, and feel that achieving an asking price offer justified the higher fees incurred. We would have no hesitation in recommending Breckon & Breckon to others, but hope that we will never have the need to avail ourselves of the services again.
Alex and the whole team at Breckon & Breckon were absolutely wonderful in their efforts to sell my Mother's house. Unfortunately due to circumstances entirely outside their control, the sale did not proceed. However I cannot fault their efforts to find buyers and also to deal very kindly and thoughtfully with an elderly lady. Should the property be put up for sale in the future, I would definitely appoint them again.
I've just bought my first property and Alex was nothing short of fantastic from start to finish. I sat down with him on Easter Saturday and he took time to explain the properties in my price range detailing some of the pros and cons of each one. We arranged viewings that day and within the week I'd had an offer accepted. Alex then guided me through the process and I appreciate all the work he has put in. He went above and beyond what I expected and I can't thank him enough. He's a credit to the Breckon and Breckon Witney branch.
Finding the right home is something that can be frustrating because it depends on so many factors and doesn’t help if the estate agent who is selling it tells you what you want to hear, but it wasn’t the case with John Bouwer, he was always accommodating and available to any queries we had and in our case being part of a chain where our first buyer aborted, he didn’t panic or made us feel nervous, which was very much appreciated. Also, the fact that he came to see us the day we moved in to asked us if we were okay or if we had more questions about the property shows how much he cares. I was very impressed.
I found working with Sarah Thomas at Brecon and Brecon for the purchase of a property an extremely great experience. She is friendly, patient, honest and helpful in various manners to ensure the sale went through without any issues. Sarah communicates brilliantly at all times and is very calm and reassuring with it. If any wrinkles arose, Sarah ironed them out smoothly. I found the whole team at Brecon and Brecon welcoming, friendly and helpful at all times. I would 100% recommend their services.
This is the second time that we have used Breckon & Breckon to sell a property and can only say that they are brilliant. Right from the start to completion they have kept us updated and informed all the way. It's been a delight dealing with Maddison and Alex, they are so professional and knowledgeable, and a credit to Breckon & Breckon. Thank you soo much for a painless and thorough completion.
The service received from Alex was second to none. Nothing was too much trouble and he was great at keeping me updated during the whole buying and selling process. Would highly recommend 👍🏻
It was the first time selling our house and the whole process was well explained, easy to track and we received lots of helpful advice. Communications were always clear and timely and we never felt like we had to chase anyone for anything, they were always one step ahead. Alex was incredible, top guy, we were really pleased with how friendly and hardworking he is. We would have no hesitations to use Breckon&Breckon again in the future! Thanks for all of your help.
In spring 2024 I worked closely with Alex on the purchase of my first home in the Cotswolds. Alex acted on behalf of the seller, but as the principle agent I found him very straight forward, extremely knowledgable and very easy to communicate with. The exchange was complicated due to obstacles up-chain, all of which were managed swiftly and diplomatically by Alex. I feel as though Alex brokered a honourable deal for all parties and I would not hesitate to work with him again. If you're looking for a young, ambitious and logical thinker who can move quickly and work hard for you in Oxfordshire, Alex is your agent. Mike.
Breckon & Breckon have been a delight to work with. Their understanding of the market and our unique property enabled them to find the right buyers and secure a sale in challenging circumstances. The whole team has proven to be diligent and reliable and our lead agent, Alex has gone above and beyond to ensure a smooth transaction. We are very grateful.
