We have recently purchased our first flat and Brooks were the selling agent. While the sale went on for much longer than we wanted and there were some stumbling blocks along the way, Dannii and the rest team at Brooks Estate Agents were great to deal with throughout the process. Even when things got tense at times, we were able to have a civil negotiation with Brooks which was fantastic! All the best to Dannii and the rest of the team going forward.

Their service is excellent. Professional and friendly, with all the patience to answer the small queries that come with buying and selling a home. I could not recommend them enough. Jake Cook has been instrumental in ensuring my sale completed with all parties engaged, happy and supported. I have used them to buy, rent and sell property over the last 7 years and wouldnt hesitate to use them again.

Brooks has has become very shady around giving back our deposit its been months now and we are still in dispute I would avoid for this reason. Make sure you take pictures when you move in and point out every minor detail as they will try to get you when your moving out. Its such a shame there is such untrustworthy money grabbing lettings agencies out there. We were good tenants for 3 years left the flat very clean and tidy and they still want to take all our deposit.

We just bought through Brooks, and they were absolutely brilliant at every stage, Dannii in particular who was our main contact. They are genuinely a lovely team; super responsive, very straightforward and a real pleasure to be in touch with. Would heartily recommend working with them if you get the chance! Thank you Dannii and team.

I was in a rush to buy my property before the end of the stamp duty holiday and there were several complications with the property itself, which meant that it felt like it was going to take forever. Robert was absolutely brilliant at liaising with all parties involved and repeatedly went above and beyond to make it happen. I was really inpressed with the service. Thank you again!
