About the company

Countywide Properties is an independent family run commercial property agency based in Ipswich, established in 1999. The principal director has over 40 years of experience in the Ipswich and East Anglian property market. The company provides property appraisals for letting and sale purposes.

It also provides property management of residential and commercial properties, and handles residential and commercial property sales.

What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Paul and Joe, the two names that surface most often in feedback, are described as approachable, straight-talking and genuinely invested in the people they deal with. Tenancies lasting several years feature regularly in accounts, with occupiers reporting that maintenance issues are handled quickly and to a good standard, and landlords noting that repairs are arranged at sensible cost with little disruption. Communication draws consistent praise, from prompt answers to questions through to clear updates as sales and purchases progress, and the advice given on lettings and property management is said to take much of the weight off owners’ shoulders.

Viewings are portrayed as thorough, with a property’s faults and merits presented honestly rather than glossed over, and completions are described as efficient and well organised, including a handover kept on track after a removal firm failed to appear. The service covers residential sales and rentals alongside commercial work and surveying instruction, and the accounts that recur are of long-standing relationships and careful management of other people’s property.

The Trials and Tribulations of buying a house ! 🏠 Like all house buying, it started with a viewing. Paul came to Sudbury from Ipswich and showed us around the property. It had laid empty for around 3 years, probate and a couple of false " start stops" with various interested parties had left the sellers baffled as to why it hadn't sold. Paul was straight talking and showed the Good, the Bad and the Ugly, which really didn't phase us, I am fortunate to have some friends in the building trade and they provide some helpful guidance. It then got to the finger pointing, bun fighting, and at times comical and childish behaviour of the solicitors. I do trust that at some point in time AI replaces these butt wipes and makes it an easier transaction for house buyers / sellers. In the mean time Paul (Countywide) did a good job of pushing and pulling information to and fro and by some miracle we exchanged contracts and completed the sale in around 6 months. So thanks to Paul and the team at Countywide Estate agents, we ended up with the house of our dreams, a little weary and stressed, and in agreement this is it, we are NEVER moving again.

Fabulous estate/ letting agents. Nothing has been too much trouble, when we were let down by removal company they were happy to extend the contract. Would recommend.

I cannot recommend Countrywide Properties enough. I have just had a tenancy with them for the last 2 years and they were fantastic throughout. Joseph in particular was extremely approachable and showed genuine care. I wouldn’t hesitate to approach them again in future

I recently sold one of my property with the help of Countywide, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the service I received. The team was professional, communicative, and truly dedicated from start to finish. They kept me informed every step of the way, answered all my questions promptly, and made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and well managed. The sale was completed efficiently, and I always felt supported. I’m so grateful for their hard work and would highly recommend Countywide to anyone looking to sell their property. A great team that genuinely cares!

I’ve had a tenancy with Countywide Property Agents for the past one and a half years, and the experience has been consistently excellent. From the very beginning, their team demonstrated professionalism, efficiency, and genuine care for both the property and the tenants. Communication has always been prompt and courteous. Any maintenance issues were handled quickly and effectively, with regular updates throughout the process. The property was well-managed, and the team ensured it remained in great condition throughout my tenancy. What stood out most was the approachable and supportive attitude of the staff. Especially Mr Joseph lacobucci, he made the entire rental process — from the initial viewing to the end of tenancy — smooth and stress-free. I always felt that my concerns were listened to and taken seriously. My family wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Countywide Property Agents to anyone looking to rent. They set a high standard for property management, and we are grateful for their excellent service over the past 18 months.

Countrywide Properties has been professional and courteous throughout my tenancy period. I moved to the United Kingdom for work purposes and encountered difficulty in obtaining a rental but Countrywide Properties gave me an opportunity when no other property agency would. Thank you Countrywide Properties!
