The Barons team made the process of selling our house very easy and kept us fully updated throughput the process. From the initial call to handling the viewings and weekly updates on the progress of completing the sale, everyone in the team was very helpful, informative and always found out the answers to any questions that we had. They were very responsive and gave us the full picture every time we spoke. It was a pleasure working with them on the sale of our house. Thank you Barons team!

From the very start of the viewings process Barons estate agents were honest and informative in the property they where selling and we saw a fair few! Once the offer was made and accepted Charlie from the sales progress team was 1st class calling every week with updates and the progress of the move. You can see why Barons have established such a well known name in Basingstoke.

Liam and Charlie have been fantastic to deal with throughout the whole house buying process. What can be a very stressful time has been totally switched on it's head: we have felt supported and heard at every moment. If we ever sell our property we will not look any further - it will be Barons!

The whole team at Barons have been absolutely brilliant from start to finish in dealing with our house sale & purchase. We were always kept in the loop and had complete confidence that they were all over it in respect of ensuring everything was ticking along nicely. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to assist with your house purchase/sale.

Absolutely the best decision ever choosing the team at Barons to sell my flat. We tried to sell privately and it fell through so approached Barons in November 2021 to help us. Probably the worst time of year to try to sell a property but with Patrick's help we sold it within a month. Absolutely loved working with him- he's just great. We were then passed to Charlie in the post sale team who also didn't disappoint- he worked very hard to ensure the process kept moving and gave us very regular updates. Very pleased - worth every penny - thank you both.
