Report
We were interested in a house advertised by them, asked multiple times if any more pictures are available as only pictures on site was of the garden. Asked if we could have an online viewing as we was unable to travel at the time. But was told no, to both. Apparently, viewing weren't available at the time as the house was still being renovated. We've been promised we'll get an update as soon as viewings are happening. Just to find out today that the house is sold, but for us, the viewing wasn't available. Big disappointment. Doubt we'd ever look for a house through them again.

Recently sold my house with Belong and the service I received was outstanding.
Richard did every viewing and gave feedback following each viewing. He made himself available evenings and weekends via mobile should we need him and worked as a mediator between the buyers and ourselves. The quality of the photos and videos was superb.
Richard has even advised us whilst weve been purchasing another house. Really competitive prices, I honestly thought with the concierge service they offered they would be very expensive and, theyre actually lower than most local estate agents. Without a doubt

Having used Belong Estate Agents for our recent house sale I can highly recommend them for great service and value for money.
James White did a great job with the photos and video and had the house on the market within hours.
James Ince conducted the viewings for us always providing feedback in a timely manner. We were kept informed every step of the way by James and Katie and both were always available to any questions we may have. We felt in very safe hands throughout the entire process. 10/10

Recently sold a property using Belong and Richard Pardoe who was our agent. He was incredibly professional, extremely efficient and supportive. Communications were brilliant Richard kept us informed during the viewings process and kept in touch to update when needed. We would definitely recommend this company to anyone looking to move house. Many thanks Richard and the team at Belong.
