We would like to share our recent feedback from our vendors and landlords, buyers and tenants. Like most businesses we strive to provide the very best service and deliver what we promise at the outset. If the high proportion of our work that comes from recommendation is anything to go by we must be doing something right. As the adage goes “you can’t please all of the people all of the time” but we endeavour to give 100% in everything we do.
Our house sale proved to be rather a protracted business in the end but the team – particularly Stuart and Jason – went above and beyond and were extremely helpful during the whole process. As others have said, we found them to be conscientious and honest (not something I think can be said of all agents!) and we would not hesitate to recommend them. Thank you – we got there in the end!
Mr & Mrs N. O’Brien
The team at Payne & Co helped me to find the right house. Once found the process was quick and easy. Many thanks.
Mr N. Jackson
We have been working with Payne and co for 4 years, firstly in managing our tenanted home and then in selling the same property. Their advise and professionalism has been second to none. Four separate tenants all of whom were properly vetted caused us no problems. Then the process of selling the house where the asking price was achieved on an open day has shown us how Jason and his team have their fingers on the pulse in this local property market.
The team have always been approachable and kept us updated on all aspects of our dealings during these past years. I would definitely recommend them.
Mr A. Maile
I would highly recommend Payne & Co who recently dealt with the successful sale of my property. Stuart and Sophie were most helpful and courteous during the whole procedure and kept in close touch with me at each step of the way. All front of house staff were welcoming and helpful when I visited their offices.
Mrs E. Jamieson
After a bad experience with an online agent, we found Stuart at Payne and Co. From the beginning he was attentive, genuine and helped us to quickly sell our house. Nothing was too much trouble, he and the team dealt swiftly with solicitors and gave us invaluable advice concerning our move. We would highly recommend Payne and Co.
Mr F. Sylvester
Stuart and the team were great in our purchase of a new home in Oxted. The transaction was not without its challenges and Stuart managed the expectations and impatience of both sides superbly. We would certainly use Payne & Co again but hopefully not for a while yet.
Mr D. Prince
I have been delighted with the service provided by all at Payne & Co. Stuart in particular has been very professional, a phrase too often used nowadays, but in this case it’s entirely appropriate. His knowledge of the market and his advice has been excellent throughout and regular communication from both Stuart and his team, has meant that my wife and I were kept fully informed and assured at all times. I would certainly recommend Payne & Co to anyone planning a move in the Oxted area.
Mr G. Best
We have had a wonderful experience using Payne & Co to sell our family home of 50 years here in Oxted. Their valuation was spot on, they brought in qualified buyers efficiently and quickly and within a month we had an offer. Not satisfied with that, they held out and got improved offers twice before we finally agreed the sale. They were thoroughly professional throughout and kept us well informed of the sales process at all times. We have no hesitation in thoroughly recommending Stuart, Karen and the team at Paynes.
Mr J. Beck
Very pleased with the professional service, we sold our house quicker than we ever thought possible! The team are very helpful and clearly have a very good understanding of the market. I would recommend Payne & Co to anyone who is looking for a stress free sale.
Mrs B. Venables
Thanks to the team at Payne & Co for the smooth running of the sale of my property. Stuart and his team have been great through a lengthy process and have always kept me up to date with any queries/issues that arose so as to progress the sale. The team have always been punctual with appointments and responding to emails & calls. All in all a good service and I would recommend the team for the sale of a property.
Mr J. Thompson
Thanks again for all you and the team did, we were really pleased with the service. The extra work you put in with out difficult buyer was brilliant and we loved the weekly updates on how everything was going. We also loved the fact that the team came over to see the property.
Mrs C. Butcher
Many thanks for all of your hard work in the sale of Briars Cross. Stuart and his team kept us well informed throughout the process of the sale. Their advice with regard to pricing, negotiating and completing the sale was faultless. Their time keeping was excellent and viewings were geared towards appropriate purchasers. We were well looked after from start to finish and would have no hesitation in recommending them as agents in any future sale.
Dr. R. Hudson, October 2017
We invited Payne & Co to sell our house, because we were struck with the open, honest “vibe” they gave us when we initially met. Their communication was excellent, and they appeared to understand our priorities in obtaining a buyer. Once we received an offer, Payne & Co. were especially helpful at ensuring the we were able to get to exchange and completion successfully. I would whole-heartedly recommend Payne & Co.
Dr. T. Husain, October 2017
When I needed to sell my mum’s house after her death I invited 4 local estate agents to view. I appointed Payne & Co as they demonstrated integrity and sound approach / advice. They did not disappoint, the house was sold quickly, the right price was achieved, and the management of processes through to completion were professionally managed. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Payne & Co to others, it is rare to find an estate agent who cares about customer service.
Mr S. Rosier, September 2017
We purchased a property in need of considerable renovation through Stuart Taylor at Payne & Co. Most estate agents have in my view unfortunately lost the art (and it is an art) of making a difficult deal work. Luckily though, Stuart is not one of those. Given the condition of the property, agreeing a price was not simple, and subsequent issues identified also needed to be agreed. Stuart very professionally and effectively facilitated negotiations and helped bring the seller and buyer onto the same page – working a good outcome for all. We also appreciated that Stuart kept us well informed, and helped nudge things along when things got stuck at lawyers etc. When we buy or sell next, it will be an easy decision which estate agent to contact.
Mrs A. Lottering, August 2017
We would just like to extend our grateful thanks to you and your team for the totally professional and dedicated way in which you conducted the recent, successful sale of my mothers house in Hurst Green.
As you know, we had been using another estate agent in Oxted and we were left extremely disappointed and frustrated as they had failed to secure a buyer to exchange in over 5 months.
The fact that Payne and Co found us a buyer prepared to pay more than previously offered within 3 weeks probably says it all.
Mr C. Fisher, July 2017
I can not recommend Payne & Co enough, they were so helpful during every aspect of our sale and completion. They really helped to take some of the stress out of the situation and we were grateful for all the expertise and advice.
Mrs G. Brown, November 2016
Many thanks for a brilliant job. One of your competitors recommended putting the property on the market for £750k! It is great dealing with people on top of their game!
Mr M. Harman, May 2017
Thank you very much for all your hard work and sound advice! We will of course be recommending your services!
Mrs D. Thompson
We wanted to say a belated thank you very much for all your help with our purchase of Central Way.
Stuart you were very pleasant to deal with all the way though the process, it was quite a long journey from offer acceptance to completion and you were always calm and helpful despite a few unanticipated set backs. We would definitely consider Payne and Co for when we next sell, although we’re not planning on leaving any time soon! We wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Payne and Co. Thank you again, you’ve been brilliant.
Mr & Mrs White, February 2017
Just a quick note to say thank you for all your help before our move. Stuart was particularly helpful and accommodating during the process but the whole team at Payne & Co were a pleasure to deal with, making the whole lengthy process easier to handle.
Miss H. Simpson, January 2017
Several months of searching for just the right property for us and one or two false starts along the way were made as relatively smooth as possible with the professional help and support from Stuart and the team at Payne & Co. Their responsiveness to us and understanding of our needs in a crowded marketplace made them stand out from ‘the rest’. We would have no hesitation in recommending their services to both potential purchasers and vendors as a company that still has old fashioned values, a strong work ethic and will go out of their way to do that little bit extra just when it’s needed.
Mr & Mrs D. Hollander, December 2016
Just wanted to write and say thank you for your help (and that of your colleagues) with our house move a few weeks ago. Your advice and support was very much appreciated.
Mrs G. Mullett, November 2016
Just a short note to say how much we appreciated your professional help and advise in selling my late brother’s house . You and your staff made it very easy for us . We would not hesitate to recommend you.
Mrs W. Wood, November 2016
I instructed Payne and co to look after the sale of my property as they were a local company. I was looked after by Stuart Taylor and his team.
I found them most professional in the way they facilitated the sale. Most patient when various solicitors in the chain seemed to find ways slow the process down. Excellent in keeping me aware of exactly what was going on with all the elements in the chain which involved them in detailed negotiations with the other parts of the chain and the various solicitors and agents taking part in the process.
Excellent in managing my expectations in what was happening and it was them who came up with acceptable exchange and completion dates agreed with the chain. I would highly recommend them to anybody looking for a professional Estate Agent in the Oxted Area.
Mr A. Etherington, November 2016
I can not recommend Payne & Co enough, they were so helpful during every aspect of our sale and completion. They really helped to take some of the stress out of the situation and we were grateful for all the expertise and advice.
Mrs G. Brown, November 2016
I think we’re still in shock that we’ve got to this point and won’t quite believe it until we have the keys in our hands! We really appreciate all the efforts from your side. You have gone above and beyond!
Mrs C Kemp, October 2016
I wish to confirm my satisfaction with Payne and Co’s services and performance when handling my recent house move. This the second transaction they have handled for me and on both occasions I found Payne & Co. to be reliable, efficient and professional in their dealings. A particular mention must go to Stuart Taylor, Sales Director. Thank you Payne & Co.!
Mrs J. Meredith, September 2016
I chose Payne & Co to act as Estate Agents for selling my house in Limpsfield because of their knowledge of the area and ability to match prospective buyers to my property. Viewings were from interested parties who needed my style of property, not just casually interested. My requirements were listened to and helpful comments were made by all staff. My main dealings were with Mr Stuart Taylor who I found to be both insightful and a very good communicator. Attention to detail was given throughout the whole process. All in all I found the services of Payne & Co to be thoroughly professional and to be recommended.
Mr D. Withers, August 2016
We would highly recommend Paynes Estate Agents to absolutely anyone. They gave us a fantastic service, proactive and helpful at every turn of events. Our main point of contact, Stuart Taylor was the perfect agent and we don’t think there are many of these about! All Paynes staff were courteous, friendly and helpful at all times. They put in every possible effort to find a buyer for our unconventional house, continued to help progress the sale once a buyer was found and were just perfect in their support right up until completion. Wouldn’t use anyone else!
Mr & Mrs W. Tolman, August 2016
Just a quick email to thank you for all your work on the purchase of Central Way. You were by far the most helpful and proactive person I dealt with. We will not hesitate to recommend your services to others in the area and if/when we move we’ll be contacting you first.
Mr & Mrs Evans, April 2016
Thank you for all your assistance and advice during this process, you have been a pleasure to work with. We appreciate all the chasing you’ve done and you’ve been great at always keeping us updated and being at the end of the phone to answer any questions so a big thank you for ensuring this all went through.
Mr & Mrs Matlock, February 2016
