Recently sold our house through bolton properties and I can't thank the team enough! They have been absolutely incredible throughout the whole process. Amazing communication through the whole process, outstanding professionalism and just incredible 😊
We highly recommended Bolton Properties if you are selling a property. Chris and Joanne have been superb throughout and kept in touch with us regularly updating us on progress etc. Thank you very much Bolton Properties for a smooth sale. Best wishes Paul and Julie Monks
I sold my house with Bolton Properties this year, from the start they were fantastic. Chris has great knowledge of the local area and gave an accurate and realistic valuation so the house was under offer within a couple of weeks. Unfortunately my first buyer fell through but the whole team did everything they could to get another buyer in less than 2 weeks so I was able to keep my onward purchase. They're very easy to contact and always available for questions/updates making the whole sale process much less stressful than it could be. 100% recommended
Spoke to Chris Baron at Bolton Properties about buying some rental properties in the area. Chris really knows his stuff and went out of his way to help guide me with the best areas of the town to buy in. Superb communication even giving me a call back at 9pm in an evening. Can see why he’s won an award. Fantastic.
Avoid them if you can! They are not at all transparent in communication and are good at wasting your time. We made an offer on a property through them last time and they never communicated back if our offer was accepted or declined, later we found (not through them) that property was sold to someone else on a lower price. Recently again we liked a property unfortunately advertised by them and we were very open and honest from begining that we have to sell our property and if acceptable we will put an offer to their property and they asked what is our offer and we made an offer. After prolonged delays, lack of responding to our emails, they finally sent us an email accepting our offer and in the meanwhile we marketed our property and were getting offers on our property, got credit checks done, obtained agreement in priciple etc. We advised them that we are getting offers on our property already but havnt yet accepted any as the viewings are ongoing in case we get even better offer however to get the ball rolling, we asked them if we are ok to get a survey done on their property and they said yes to it. We then paid almost £700 to get a survey done and when our surveyors called them to book an appointment, they again failed to communicate clearly and avoided to book the survey. Now today we were advised that owners of the property we were interested in are going ahead with someone else!! WHAT A WASTE OF TIME, MONEY AND CREDIT CHECKS! If they would have sought clear instructions from vendors from begining and kept us informed at every stage openly and honestly, we would have not wasted our time with them. AVOID IF YOU CAN!
As a first-time buyer, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience than the one I had with Bolton Properties. From the outset, the team was friendly, professional, and incredibly helpful. Joanne kept me well-informed with regular updates, and Alison was quick to respond to any queries and always happy to follow up with the seller on my behalf. Their guidance and support helped make the whole process feel smooth and far less stressful than I anticipated. I’m genuinely grateful for everything and would highly recommend Bolton Properties to anyone buying in the area.
I had a completely different estate agent in mind to sell my property until I met Chris from Bolton properties and decided to sell through them purely down to him being so genuine and honest. Joanne took care of the sale for me and kept me informed every step of the way, nothing was too much trouble. Selling my property was effortless through Bolton properties, they made it that easy and did exactly what they said they would do. There's not many estate agents that really care or take the time to look after your best interests as a client, a lot of them just want your money, but I can honestly say the team at Bolton Properties are professional and also honest, genuine people which is what I want if i'm giving you the responsibility of selling my property. Thanks again Bolton properties I appreciate everything you have done for me.
