From our initial inquiry about selling our house right through to exchange of contracts and completion Christopher Hodgson have provided a great service. A colleague at work recommended them and they have been excellent throughout. They kept us informed at all stages of the process, we never had to ring them and ask for updates. Most definitely a 5 star recommendation!

The staff at Christopher Hodgson have been excellent. From the first meeting with Will, his professional approach and guidance has been invaluable. The Staff in branch who progress the sale were in regular contact chasing our solicitors and us if needed. An outstanding team of professionals who are a credit to the estate agency industry.

I live in the United States and had to take care of the sale of my elderly parents' home in Whitstable, from abroad. The Christopher Hodgson team were brilliant and assisted me with every aspect of the sale, including arranging cleaning, gardening, clearing and other services that needed to be accomplished prior to the sale and completion. They are extremely professional, responsive and friendly. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Christopher Hodgson have been fantastic in dealing with the sale of my property. Particularly Jacqui, who dealt with the progression of the sale, which wasn't the easiest at times. Jacqui went above and beyond in making it happen, offering first class customer service alongside remaining a high level of professionalism at all times. I can't recommend them highly enough. 5*!

The Staff are professional, personable and extremely efficient. Jacqueline worked tirelessly to progress the sale and purchase through to exchange, keeping us informed every step of the way. We cannot recommend Christopher Hodgson highly enough.

Recently purchased a home through Christopher Hodgson. While I can't comment on fees and value, as the buyer I can say that they were a pleasure to work with. Questions to the seller were followed up promptly. Jacqueline Bell, in particular, was very pleasant, efficient, and very informative with respect to our new location.

We have used Christopher Hodgson for buying and selling our properties over the past few years. On each occasion we have found the team very consistent, professional & approachable. We all know that buying and selling a house is very stressful however, the team at Christopher Hodgson were always in control. Jacqui was amazing by providing us with regular updates and managing the whole process from start to finish. We would always recommend Christopher Hodgson as they are such a great team & provide a professional service.

The service I received from Christopher Hodgson was second to none. Jacqui, in particular, was fantastic. She dealt with all my queries professionally and efficiently even after I had moved in to my new home. I would definitely use them again and would recommend them for their trust worthiness, knowledge and excellent service from start to finish.

Highly recommend. Christopher Hodgson were polite, efficient and very respectful of our family home when it came to selling. People say moving is one of the most stressful times in someone's life, but we can honestly say things ran unbelievably smoothly from start to finish.

We have just sold our home through Christopher Hodgson and bought another through them too. I can not speak highly enough of all the staff that helped make that happen, so helpful, supportive, kind yet also very professional. From the very first meeting they made us fell like our house was a home, not just business, but personal. Moving is stressfl, but Will, Jacqi, Tom and Charlie to name but a few, couldn't have made it more cop-able if they tried. Thank you VERY much!
