    We are proud to have been recognised by our customers for our excellent customer service at the 2013 estate agent awards (ESTAS) We are delighted to have been awarded the BRONZE award for the South East, giving our future customers total peace of mind of the level of service they will receive from us.

    The award was announced by Phil Spencer, the TV property expert at a lavish luncheon & ceremony at the Hilton Park Lane London attended by 600 of the UK's top estate and letting agents and suppliers to the industry. Phil Spencer, said "I think these awards help us all to focus on customer service for the greater good of our own businesses as well as the wider industry. We must all drive standards higher, raising the bar in terms of the quality of advice we offer and the level of customer care we deliver." Agents were shortlisted in 18 regions around the country. "The ESTAS competition is about recognising the hard work agents put in every day, every week and month of the year" says Simon Brown who runs the national scheme. "So to be shortlisted is a great achievement, but to win is the highest accolade any agent can achieve".

    Nicholas Court MNAEA Owner and Managing Directorr of Court & Co said "We are absolutely thrilled to be recognised at this year's ESTAS. It means so much to us as we know it's our customers who have judged our performance. We take our levels of customer service very seriously because we know clients have a choice. We have always been very proud of the personal service we provide and this is great way to demonstrate how good we really are."

    The Court & Co Blog
    Service

    Service is the backbone of what we do. Without it, we simply would not be in business. This is not exclusive to estate agents, service is or at least should be at the core of every successful business operation. A businesses level of customer service links directly to the success and reputation of that business. What ever it is that is being provided by a company, as a customer you want to have the most pleasant, stress free & helpful experience as possible. You want to get your monies worth.

    The old saying "You get what you pay for" could never be truer for the levels of service you receive from any company who you are buying a product or a service from. If you have "A Kitchens" quoting you £10,000 to refit your kitchen & "B Kitchens" quote you £6,000 for the same job, who is more likely to provide a better finish? A higher quality? The best service?

    The same can be said for estate agency. If "Agent X" is going to provide you a fee of 1% inc. VAT to sell your home & "Agent Y" are going to charge 1.5% plus VAT who is going to provide the better service? For that lower fee there is no motivation for the agent to fight to keep the sale together when things go wrong, they aren't going to be able to afford to use the necessary resources, accompany all the viewings of the property, negotiate effectively or have the time needed to spend on seeing your sale through to completion.

    Service is all about going the extra mile and then some for your client. Making sure that they have the best possible experience, regardless of what their needs or requirements are. Accompanying all viewings, producing high quality property particulars, negotiating for the best price, finding the right buyer, managing the sale correctly, smoothing out the bumps & making, what is for many a stressful experience, as easy to manage as possible in a profession manor.

    Testimonials from Sellers

    • Seller Testimonial

      Your teams professionalism and sustained optimism have achieved a good sale in a difficult market. Many Thanks

      Wyn Burland Road - Brentwood

       

      Yesterday was the completion of our property. I got the key and went in there with excitement. Thanks for everything you have done to help us. I was surprised by the greeting card and the moving say survival hamper. Thank you very much for your kindness.

      The house was left in a clean and tidy condition and the vendors left us useful information. Please say thanks for us.

      Wishing your company a prosperous future.

      Jun & Huiyan
      Rochford Avenue - Shenfield

       

      Finally, we are settling into our new home and I wanted to formally thank you and the team for all of your hard work during our time on that dreaded of places - "the property market".

      Having been in our last house for nearly ten years, this was a life-changing experience and the support that we received from you, Ben, Richard and Sharyn was really appreciated. It was important to us that we appointed an agent who would be reliable, trustworthy and working for us rather than their own bank account, and we honestly feel that you managed to achieve this difficult balance.

      As we are all aware, estate agents don't have the most flattering of reputations, but we felt that your team was the exception and I would highly recommend Court & Co to anyone who is looking for the personal touch that only a small but dedicated and proactive team can provide. From finding the right angle for pictures of the lounge, to the amazingly thoughtful finishing touches on moving day, you provided a level of service that is simply not attempted by larger agents. As well as completing on our own property with you, we also negotiated a potential purchase, and we're confident that you managed the impossible task of working in everyone's best interests along the way.

      Thank you for all of us, and good luck in the coming business year.
      With Best Wishes

      Villene, Barry & Cody
       Kavanaghs Road - Brentwood
         

      Just wanted to let you know how amazed I was with the level of service that you offered in selling my house, it was way beyond the levels that I have received from other High Street agents.

      The sale wasn't without its issues, but you achieved a great price for me and kept the deal going, where many other agents would simply have put the house back on the market.

      Richard in particular worked extremely hard, communicating endlessly with both sets of solicitors and even the Highways Department at one point. He also helped me find a suitable rental property. Please pass on my thanks.

      I will/and have recommended Court and Co to anyone I know who is buying or selling a property. Hopefully, you can also assist me in the purchase of a property in the near future.

      Debbie Cory Drive - Hutton  

      We would like to take this opportunity to thank you and our staff for the fantastic service you provided throughout the purchase of our property. The whole process took, from start to finish over 6 months, but you stuck with us when the chain broke down on three occasions and provided a service that we could not fault.

      When we finally moved in the "moving day survival hamper" was a wonderful gesture and we would highly recommend Court & Co to any prospective buyers / sellers.

      Thank you again for your help.

      Jeff & Jeanette
      Sunray Avenue - Brentwood

       

      We just wanted to drop you a short note to say a big thank you for your help and kindness during our move. Although you were the agent acting for the vendor, you still managed to take time to check how things were on our side and provide practical help and advice whenever it was needed.

      As you are aware, a house move can be a very anxious time for all concerned and ours certainly fitted that category. Your offers of help and regular checks did not go unnoticed and provided us with great reassurance during what was a very stressful time.

      We would also like to say special thanks for the survival pack you left at the house, a very nice surprise and greatly needed and appreciated. On the day of the move we must have used almost every item in the pack - obviously very well thought out!

      We cannot praise you high enough. You provided a first class service - attentive, thoughtful and always ready to help in any way possible.

      We wish you and your business great success for the future.

      Bernard & Catherine
      High Street - Brentwood

       

      We wanted to drop you a line to say a big thank you for your help with our property sale and subsequent purchase.

      Your enthusiasm for the task never diminished. We were very impressed with your ability to adapt to the changing market environment - when we encountered a setback, you quickly thought of options to get us back on track. On a personal level, you clearly understand the stresses involved in moving home and do everything you can to make the process easier. That is much appreciated and we found your service to be way above anything we have encountered before.

      We are also grateful to you for resolving our burglar alarm "problem" when we were abroad, lazing around the pool in Italy! Yes that was definitely my fault.... A great example of client service over and above the standard.

      We will recommend you to others thinking of moving in the future.

      Stuart & Alison
      Hall Green Lane - Hutton

       

      I am writing to say thank you for all your help we received when buying the flat. I wanted to put something down in writing so that you are aware of how much we appreciate your efforts.

      As you know, being first time buyers and what with the climate of the property market recently, we were quite nervous. You were a great support to me personally; it was such a relief to know you were on the other end of the phone to give advice and discuss situations. It took like 5 months from start to finish and was not a simple sale and I think if it hadn't been for you, we probably would have gotten cold feet and pulled out.

      We were so happy when we finally got in and it was lovely to see the welcome home pack that you left for us, it was such a nice touch. I told my sister who used to work for another high street estate agent, and she said that she'd never heard of an estate agent going to such lengths - it was lovely.

      We are now settled in the flat and everything is coming along nicely after our initial decorating. Hopefully there will be bigger things to come by the end of the year with the installation of the new bathroom and windows. It would be great for you to come and see the finished result.

      As a final note Id like you to know that we'd love to have you as our agent when we come to sell, hopefully not for a few years to come, however!

      Thanks for everything.

      Lucie & Daryl
      Hutton Road - Shenfield

      We are writing to express out thanks and appreciation for all the assistance you gave with the sale of our property, which was handled in an efficient and professional manner.
      We would have no hesitation in recommending your company's services to others.

      Thank you again for all your help and we wish Court and Company every success in the future.

      Ray
      Sunray Avenue - Hutton

       

      I would like to express our sincere thanks and gratitude for your assistance with our recent property sale and purchase. Not only did you find us our dream house but you also managed to sell out flat in a very short space of time. The things that really impressed us were the quality and coverage of the advertising for the sale of our flat, the detailed information on the property we bought and your unending ability to always be available on the phone and to answer or find the answer for literally any question.

      On a personal level, your professionalism and that of your staff was excellent. Your attention to detail and actually doing what you said you were going to do was very reassuring at what can be a stressful time, but most of all your personal interaction and willingness to go the extra mile made the whole experience that much easier.

      The moving say survival hamper was a real godsend and the bottle of fizz enjoyed! Thank you.
      I hope that we will have the opportunity to work with you again.

      JulieShelly Road - Hutton  

      We are writing to thank you, most sincerely for your kind attention to the sale of our property. You were patient, vigilant and very caring and I would certainly recommend your services in the future.

      I hope all is well with you, and should you be passing my new house, please come in and have a glass or two!!
