Collins Residential, Basingstoke

I recently instructed Collins Residential to sell my home. I had three valuations and after spending a short time with Michael Howley I knew instantly he was the right person and choice of agent to help me. I secured not just the right price but also the right buyer in a very short space of time. Charlie Gordon conducted himself very professionally on the viewings and demonstrated fantastic local knowledge of the area. Sometimes you tend to get a lot of bad press in this industry however my experience with the staff at Collins is totally the opposite. I would wholeheartedly use Collins again and recommend them to family and friends.

This was an auction sale and Charlie at Collins worked with us and Whoobid. He got the property onto Right Move really quickly and did all the viewings. He was receptive, understanding and always got back to us promptly. We have no hesitation in recommending Collins and would use them again! Thanks in particular to Charlie.

Our experience with Collins Residential in selling our home was exceptional, and Mike deserves a special mention. Mike truly went above and beyond to help us navigate the process, offering invaluable guidance and expertise. His dedication and commitment made all the difference in ensuring a successful sale which if I'm honest, was touch and go at one point. We are incredibly grateful to Mike and the team for their outstanding service, making our home-selling journey smooth and kinda stress-free. Highly recommend!

We first saw Mike who dealt with the valuation and getting our house on the market. The process was explained well and got he ball rolling quickly.We then dealt with Charlie who showed people our property. He was great at keeping us upto date with feedback etc.

I could give 20 stars if i could,Mike and Charlie have made my house sale go so smoothly and they helped me along the way.100% recommend this company.

Amazing experience, Charlie sold our house in about 3 days and kept us informed right up until we completed. Would definitely use again

Mike and Charlie were great. They quickly found a property and helped us sell our own. We were kept fully updated on the way and they were quick to respond to any questions or queries that we had. We wouldn't hesitate to use again in the future.

This particular house was never going to be an easy sale; it was part of the estate of my late brother and was being sold as an empty shell without any smart furnishings, a nice interior décor, carpets and all of the other things which attract buyers in difficult financial times. Despite all of that, Michael Howley from Collins Residential saw the potential; following a survey of the property he very quickly constructed a marketing plan based on a thorough and rigorous evaluation of other properties in the catchment area. Good communication with the client is one of the key skills Michael has which impressed me so much; at every stage he would explain what was going on and only when he was confident that I had understood the process would he move on. This made everything so much easier and simpler in what is altogether a difficult time when dealing with the sale of the home belonging to a close sibling who had lived in it for over forty years.With the extensive knowledge of the housing market in Basingstoke and beyond, which Michael has, coupled with his analysis of the property prices in the immediate area, enabled him to advise me on the best price to ask for the property so that I would find a buyer quickly but without losing value.The Marketing Plan Michael produced was excellent and I was only too happy to sign it off, he had it spot on from the get go. He represented the property in an honest and clear way, listing out all of the key selling points to potential buyers. Within a few days of the property going live Michael had three viewings arranged with prospective purchasers. He kept me appraised of what was going on throughout and he ensured that each of the viewings went smoothly, providing me with feedback every time. To my amazement, offers to buy the property came in within hours of two of the visits concluding and Michael was able to negotiate the best price with one of the very interested parties. A really tremendous result; Michael delivered a prospective purchaser ready to engage in the process of buying my brother's house within a week of the marketing campaign beginning.It didn't end there, as I am not from the Basingstoke area Michael was able to help me find a good local solicitor to take on the conveyancing work and he is ready with advice and guidance whenever I need it. When it comes to selling residential property I can highly recommend Collins Residential and Michael Howley to you.

Mike and the team have been exceptional so far! We couldn't recommend them highly enough if you are thinking of buying or selling a property.When Mike first came to visit he was extremely well prepared and had done extensive research for us. His industry knowledge and professionalism are second to none.Thank you again to the team at Collins as you are an absolute pleasure to work with.

We are very impressed with the services of Collins Residential. Michael has been in regular contact with us and his knowledge of the local property market lead to an accurate valuation and good offers. Charlie conducted our viewings very professionally too. Definitely recommend.
