Having previously had my house on the market with a well known local agent (NF) I was, by my own admission, in Estate agent resentment mode! I've sold a few houses over the years and not had a pleasant experience with any of them. Last year I had a viewing with Jon Bramble himself, and we put in an offer via Vicky. The chain collapsed so it didn't go ahead but I was impressed with their service from a buyers perspective, which is why I decided to use them when I remarketed my house this time. Jon was very professional throughout and Vicky is so easy to speak to both as a buyer and a seller.

Went in two years ago after I had just had my house valued and agreed a price to advertise it with another agent as we were looking at upsizing. Really snooty lady wouldn't even let us look at the house we wanted to view, and, if as described, and due to the location we would probably have bought. Apparently I couldn't view "unless John visits your house and values it first". A couple of things here.
1. They potentially lost a sale and also the vendor lost out.
2. It put me off every selling with them of they won't even allow people to view a house "unless John visits yours" to value it.

Buying a house with Jon Brambles was a stress free experience. They were flexible with viewings and organising appointments with surveyors. Gemma was always helpful when arranging these. Sue made sure that things kept ticking over after our offer was accepted and we completed the whole process in a short period of time. Would definitely recommend Jon and the team!

I have sold 2 houses with Jon Brambles Estate Agents and I can't fault them at all. They are friendly as well as professional. I dealt with every member of the team and they were all faultless a true credit to the company. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them or use them again. The selling process was made very easy.

Excellent! We sold our house (and we'd also bought) through Jon Brambles. Very helpful, efficient and altogether a pleasure to deal with (unlike certain other agents in Newark...). I think I can forgive Jon for taking 2 weeks to get the asking price instead of the 1 week he promised!

We had a bit of a nightmare process when it came to selling our house (using a different estate agent), but when it came to buying a property listed by Jon Brambles, it could not have been any more efficient. The communication and support from specifically Sue, but also the rest of the team, was superb - or should I say SUE-perb! Five stars from me!
