We have just purchased our family’s first home through Balgores, and there is a good reason why they are an award-winning estate agent.

From start to finish, they provided an exceptional level of service and handled every detail professionally and efficiently. A special thank you to Michael, whose professionalism, dedication and excellent communication helped coordinate matters with the seller and ensured the entire process progressed as smoothly as possible.

We are truly grateful to Michael and his team for all their hard work and support throughout our purchase. I highly recommend Balgores to anyone looking to buy or sell a property in the Brentwood area.😊👍👍👍

I used Balgores to sell my flat and was extremely happy and satisfied with their service. All staff I spoke to during the sale were very helpful and professional and Michael in particular went above and beyond in keeping me updated and making himself available at anytime to answer any queries I had.
Overall I had a very positive experience with Balgores in Brentwood and will definitely use them again in the future.

I could not recommend Balgores Hayes highly enough. From initially listing my property through to exchange, the team sold my property within a couple of weeks of listing and we exchanged 3 months later, with every step of the process extremely well supported through excellent communication. Thank you so much to Joe, Millie, Mike, Billy and the rest of the team.

We used Balgores Brentwood to sell our house and we definitely made the right choice of estate agents! From start to finish, the service from Joe, Jamie and the whole team was fantastic, the house sold very quickly, communication was fantastic and they kept us updated regularly with progress of the whole chain, chasing often to keep things moving. A massive thank you to them all and I wouldn't hesitate to highly recommend them!

I’ve been in the property industry for 40 years so when it comes to selling your own home, you know what you are looking for.

Joe Hayes is and has always been very professional, he does what he says he is going to do.

Honesty is key, there is no point telling you an inflated sale price, you are just wasting everyone’s time.

Great communication, a driven mindset and the best selling agent in Brentwood.

I would highly recommend the Brentwood team.

Under offer within 10 days and we have now exchanged contracts.

Balgores’s should be renamed Balglorys 🥳

I used Balgores to handle the sale of my nan’s property while acting as Power of Attorney and honestly couldn’t fault them. The house sold very, very quickly and at a price we were happy with.
Massive thanks to Joe and Luke for everything throughout the process. Always at the end of the phone if we needed anything and kept everything moving smoothly from start to finish. Explained everything we needed to know at every step and happy to answer all our questions - communication from both Luke and Joe was fantastic. From the first meeting with Joe, I knew I wanted to use Balgores. You can be assured you’re in safe hands as he very clearly believes in what he does and fully delivers on it. Would highly recommend. Thanks again!

Balgores Hayes has been brilliant from start to finish.
Billy showed us round multiple viewings and organised them to fit our availability.
He was also great and responsive during the biding stage, making a stressful time go smoothly. Balgores staff were excellent in the sales progression stage, with Joe keep things moving at a pace. Highly recommend

This is the second property I have sold with Michael at Balgores, he and the team are always helpful and we’re always on hand to answer questions and ensured a smooth transition for all parties! I have experience with other estate agents and Balgores are by far the most active and professional for the start to end of the sale. Thank you again ☺️

Excellent service from Michael at Balgores. Super efficient and took all the stress out of it all by being the middle man between solicitors. Really quick and smooth sale. Would highly recommend.

Balgores wasn’t my first choice as other agents had promised me a dedicated service at less cost which was not forthcoming.
Moving to Michael K and team was a refreshing change.
My sale was handled with speed, energy and excellent feedback throughout.
I felt that Michael and his team were on my side and I received timely, accurate and good advice when needed.
A lot of effort was put in by Michael and the whole team in getting a difficult sale over the line.
The little extra I paid in comparison with other agents was well worth the difference and I cannot recommend them highly enough.
Thank you. Balgores.

We used Balgores when we sold our last house so it was a no brainer for us to use them again. The service Joe, Jamie and the whole team provide is one that all estate agents should aspire to. Our sale was an emotional one but was dealt with sensitively, and we always felt like we were in safe hands. I would have no hesitation to recommend using this company.
