Unfortunately for me and my two children I would not recommend renting a property though them as they do not uphold their responsibilities. I have been ignored by Bridget for weeks in regards to black mold, electrical wires hanging out, plug sockets hanging off walls, wasn’t cleaned or painted before I entered the property although I was assured it was, no light in bathroom, broken windows (fire hazard) and also no enamel on the bath. Absolutely nightmare and they just ignore you every time you try and resolve the issues. It’s very very unprofessionalThank you for your response Geoff but still nothing from Bridget again. Been here 3 months now. Two minors living with poo regurgating up a toilet, broken electrical wires and no bath facilities and sever black mold is unacceptable im seeking legal advice. Do not use this company

Geoffrey Matthews Estate managed the sale of my late mother's home with utmost sensitivity and professionalism.

I've just sold my property with Geoffrey Matthew Estate - it took longer than expected as we had a few issues with buyers messing me around and pulling out late (through no fault of mine or the estate agents), but thankfully they kept me informed and helped me throughout the process.I'd like to say a special thank you to Suzanne and Bradley - cheers guys for all your help 🙂

We are currently selling our property with Geoffrey Matthew and I have to say they have been very good, helpful and informative from the beginning with Bradley and then I can't sing her praises enough, Natasha who is really professional but always with a smile and knows how to make everyone feel at ease and has made the viewings feel less intrusive. Top team 👏

I purchased my first property from Geoffrey Matthews, and the experience has been amazing. I was so worried at first, but they have helped me every step of the way, from finding the property to mortgage support and everything in between.

Recently used GM Estates for the sale of our property. They were very professional and offered a great level of customer support. I would recommend wholeheartedly.

We found our forever home through Geoffrey Matthews and was so excited to buy our first home. As much as we were able to arrange a 2nd viewing and a time to check parts of house close to completion date, If honest, was very underwhelmed by the level of customer service during the 3 months from purchase to completion and especially on completion day. Wasn’t greeted by estate agent we originally dealt with and was just passed keys in an envelope and that was it, 3 months of waiting and a lot of money spent and felt very deflated by experience. Glad we got our house but maybe not best place to buy a first house through. Every other person we know who has bought a house has got a little something from the estate agents or at least met at the house by agent, this was definitely not our experience.

Highly recommend the team at Stevenage! We stupidly started our house selling process with Purple bricks- disaster from start to finish! We decided to use Geoffrey Mathews. Thank goodness we did! From the moment mark did the photos all the way through the process everyone we felt with was professional , pleasant and knowledgable ! We cannot thank them enough, the moving process could have been much worse if it wasn’t for the them, they even recommend Ed an amazing solicitor Karen and a great moving team who moved us from walkern to Northumberland ! Thank you all again

Very friendly, helpful and professional team, nothing was too much trouble. Would absolutely recommend them for house sale or purchase. Have used their services for both and would do again without hesitation.

I used Geoffrey Matthew to sell my house in Harlow, they handled everything from viewings to negotiation. My house sold very quickly, we hit a few obstacles during the searches, but Geoffrey Matthews were able to offer practical advice to help smooth these over. I am very impressed with their services and would highly recommend them.

Very professional estate agents. Have used many times over the years and they seem to be at the top of their game. That's Lettings and sales. You can see a mortgage guy there as well and he is sharp. Have experienced poor estate agents in the Harlow area so would advise these guys.

For 15 years Geoffrey Matthew managed a rental property for me that was my main home. For a large majority of that Amanda Aukett was the management agent. Her professionalism was excellent. She kept on top of getting repairs and statutory checks done. I always found her approachable and friendly.My tenant offered to buy the property and it was the right time for me to sell. Bradley managed the initial stages of the negotiations very well. The branch manager, Suzanne Smyth then dealt with the final stages. I was always promptly updated by phone or email until the sale completed.I highly recommend them to either manage your rental property or your house sale.

Very pleased with Geoff's sensitivity and professionalism in dealing with the sale of my late mother's home. This was our childhood home having moved there in 1958, so it was a difficult decision to have to make. Geoff made us feel very comfortable. I must also praise Suzanne in the office for all her help with the process.

We can’t thank Mark enough for his outstanding help in getting us our house! Without him, it simply wouldn’t have been possible. He was professional, supportive, and went above and beyond to make the process as smooth as possible. If you’re ever looking to buy a house, don’t hesitate to contact him. Highly recommended!

We recently sold our house with Geoffrey Matthews, having purchased it with them 3 years earlier. Both Mark and the team at Stevenage and Suzanne and the team at Harlow are great.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Mark while exploring potential properties, and I cannot speak highly enough of his professionalism and kindness. From the very first interaction, Mark was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping me find the right home, even though I ultimately decided not to purchase at this time.What stood out the most was his patience and understanding throughout the process. He took the time to listen to my needs and preferences, offering valuable insights without ever being pushy or trying to rush my decision.Mark was always prompt in answering my questions and made himself available for multiple property viewings, ensuring I had all the information I needed to make an informed choice.In short, if you're looking for a real estate agent who is not only knowledgeable but also genuinely cares about your needs and respects your decisions, I highly recommend Mark Bolton. He truly goes above and beyond to provide exceptional service, whether or not a sale is made.

Mark and his team recently helped us to sell our late mother's property in Chells Manor. He and his team provided an excellent service, keeping us fully informed of how things were progressing, both in terms of viewings and the sale itself. He even managed to get an offer at our target price in just 7 days. Highly recommended. Thanks, Mark.

Do not trust this agency, especially Mark who lead me to believe they would support me in the sale of my flat that had a section 20 on it. He let it rot on their books for over 6 months! When I tried to work with them and find other solutions I was put on loud speaker for the trainee who they had appointed to sell my flat to hear. I explained that the trainee was not making me aware of no shows and this was resulting in me cleaning my flat and standing out side for no reason. The trainee was wasting my time and not communicating with me, her name is Raluca. Cairen was the person who put me on loud speaker for the office to hear without my consent. I was explaining to her that it had been 6 months and I was not getting a very good service, Cairen replied, that’s fine we can not longer serve you. She preferred to lose my business instead of listening to my concerns and offering me a more experienced agent that would communicate with me. When I look into Mark eyes I see a deceitful person, I see someone who lies, I see someone who has no compassion. I feel his actions are fake like the rest of the team. I would use Haart or Taylors in Stevenage. I have worked with all of them over the three years I was trying to sell my flat and those two are the best.

They were definitely NOT just after a sale at all costs, they were aware that house buying/selling involves people and their lives. It is a stressful thing to do and they were very supportive.I would definitely recommend Geoffrey Matthews to other people I know.

We bought our home in Great Ashby via Geoffrey Matthews in 2021, Paul being our agent, and couldn't fault them. Everything ran really smoothly and the office kept us updated every step of the way. We would definitely use them again if we were to sell and move again in the future.
