Inspire Estate Agents

I would like to thank Vic for all your hard work and for dealing with my sale.
Would certainly deal with Vic again.
Most helpful sales agent.

The whole team at Inspire are friendly, helpful, proactive, professional and just simply amazing, we would highly recommend them to anyone. The owner of Inspire has helped moved us several times so there was no doubt about us using them again, unfortunately we have used them for the last time as we have moved away from the South East. We are keeping our fingers crossed that they expand across the country for our next move!

I could not have been happier with the service we received from Inspire. I started by selling my property with Zoom 995, who happily took my money and put no effort into my sale. I was starting to loose hope that selling my property was actually feasible. I contacted Inspire to view a property and explained my experience I was having trying to sell my own, and from that moment, I had their full attention. Steve was there whenever we needed.

I work full time so he came round in the evening to talk us through the process. He didn't have to and could have just told us to call during business hours. We were informed every step of the way. They took forward every bit of information we gave them about the property and all the agents who undertook viewings on our property made sure they knew all the ins and outs.

Even after we accepted an offer, they dealt with all the enquiries coming from our buyers, did everything they could to make the process as smooth as possible. Though it didn't go as smoothly as we'd liked, They constantly put my mind at ease. They answered every call and email extremely quickly. Not only Steve, but everyone there (a special mention to Vic who picked up the role while Steve was on annual leave). I would recommend them to everyone. Don't be fooled by other companies gimmicks and cheap prices, Inspire was worth every penny.

I sold my property through Inspire and I am happy to say they provide an excellence service. They launched my property to market with professional photos and a thoughtful write up within just a few days instruction. Throughout the entire process Vic, Stephen and the team were responsive, helpful and offered sound professional advice. i would have no hesitation in recommending them. Great job guys, very grateful for all you have done!

Steve and Laura as well as the rest of the team at Inspire were professional, helpful and friendly. They assisted us through the whole process of selling our home. This was not the easiest transaction, despite being a very short chain but they helped us over the finish line. I would highly recommend their services, excellent value for money.

Excellent service! 5 Stars! Inspire is definitely one of the best Real estate agents around, specifically Vic Patel. He has been incredible during this stressful time. I recommend him to anyone looking to sell their homes, he's a real asset to the business and we were very lucky to have his support during this process! Thanks Vik once again!

Inspire Estate Agents have made what could have been a very stressful experience a very smooth process. They have a great team of friendly and helpful professionals with a special shout out to the manager of the Crawley branch, Stephen. No question was too small or deemed silly even though I'm sure they were at times! I have no regrets buying through Inspire; I am now a very happy homeowner and one very satisfied customer.

Really poor service all round. We rented a property with Inspire for two years and that tenancy has just come to an end. Throughout the tenancy, we were met with resistance, procrastination, and excuses whenever repairs were required. Some of the low-lights include refusing to repair a faulty appliance that was clearly included on the signed inventory, refusing to repair a dangerous electrical issue due to 'high cost', and refusing to allow access to the whole of the property despite this being explicitly allowed on the Tenancy Agreement*.

At each step of the way, Inspire persisted with a dishonest and patronising attitude towards us which really left a bitter taste in the mouth. Inspire did everything in their power to ensure that the greedy landlord wouldn't have to put his hand in his pocket to make necessary repairs, instead shifting the cost onto us, the tenants. I understand that this is their prerogative as the landlord is their client but things like requesting that the tenants perform repairs themselves and blaming condensation caused by a faulty seal on 'sideways rain' bordered on the ridiculous.

All of this came to head when instead of performing the required repairs, Inspire/the landlord chose to illegally serve us with a Section 21 notice. However, Inspire were so incompetent that they had broken not one, but multiple gas and electrical safety laws during our tenancy so this allowed us to overturn the retaliatory eviction and stay until the end of our fixed term.

We were fortunate that we had the time and resources to fight the eviction, but others might not be so lucky. Obviously, this review is anecdotal, and I wouldn't expect anyone to take my word as Gospel, so here are some other sources: "We discussed your current dispute(s) with your landlord and you confirmed that you have not received from your landlord an updated Gas Safety Certificate since the one you received at the start of the tenancy in February 2020. Therefore, on this basis the s21 Notice is invalid" - Citizen's Advice *"You have a legal right to access" - Citizen's Advice "As you were not given the gas certificate upon receiving the notice, this could be an argument to say the notice is invalid." - Shelter "your landlord is acting disgracefully.

It's unacceptable that landlords are using Section 21s to throw people out of their homes and you shouldn't have to put up with this." - Acorn TL;DR I have dealt with a few dodgy agents during my time as a student but Inspire easily set a new low. I would warn anyone thinking about renting with Inspire to proceed with caution.

Inspire Estate Agents and the wonderful team in Lettings have been managing the let of our residential property for the past 4 years. We are so grateful to them for taking all of the stress out of what could otherwise have been a very time consuming and labour intensive process. From start to finish they managed the entire process from tenancy agreements, inventory, management of keys, consent forms, inspection checks and safety certificates - not to mention all the other work they have done that we aren't even aware of!

The team have always been very friendly, helpful, professional and reliable and we have been able to trust that everything has been thoroughly taken care of to the highest standard. We would, without doubt, recommend using Inspire Estate Agents if you are considering letting your property. A huge thank you from us, to all in your Lettings team!

Kiera was super helpful throughout the purchase of our new home which made the whole process a lot easier. She kept us updated on the process and was always on hand to help whenever we needed her. Thank you!

It has been an absolute pleasure having Inspire help me buy my first property. From the first viewing to completion, Stephen Bushell helped me in every way possible. The clarity and information he provided me when needed was a tremendous display of his knowledge and experience in the industry. It was so refreshing to have an estate agent who would find the time to help, and that would do so with such enthusiasm and motivation for your cause. I look forward to working with Stephen and the rest of the lovely team at Inspire in the future!

I wasn't actually selling a property with inspire, they were selling the property I was buying. However, Stephen Bushell helped me throughout. I'm a first time buyer and Stephen helped me understand the process and gave regular updates on what was going on elsewhere in the chain. If I need an estate agent in the future I will definitely be going with Inspire.

From the moment Inspire were invited to value my property until the final sale was completed, Inspire have always acted with true professionalism. Inspire are truly customer focused and kept me completely informed with how the process was developing at each stage. I would not hesitate to use Inspire again.

A very professional, but friendly service. Vic made the process of selling my late fathers house easy. Good advice given to ensure a quick and easy sale. Very sensitive to all our requirements and extremely helpful at all times. Would highly recommend Inspire to anyone selling a house. Vic kept us informed from start to finish and dealt with everything to make the whole process as easy as it could be under the circumstances. Very much appreciated

Inspire were extremely helpful and knowledgable when helping us sell a property that was being let. They knew which of their clients our property would suit - no time wasting. Always approachable and going the extra mile. Our sincere thanks to Stephen for making the process run as smoothly as possible. Nice to see a company that is professional and values customer service. Thanks again to the team.

We had such a great experience with Vic the Estate Agent. We were viewing a house and Vic was simply awesome. Hands down the best estate agent we've met to date, very talkative, friendly and enthusiastic, had great knowledge and great presence and really sold the house to us. Unfortunately the same evening, a different house accepted our offer. But we felt compelled to leave Vic feedback on how awesome he is.

I recommend Vic from Inspire if your putting your home on the market. He most certainly is the man for the job. We cannot thank him enough for such a good experience and his radiate presence.

I sold my property with Inspire and Stephen Bushell and his team helped me tremendously with the process. Stephen stayed in contact with me throughout the whole process, was helpful, honest and explained things in a way I could understand. It's such an anxious time for anyone moving home but Stephen went above and beyond to ease the transition for everyone in the chain.

He kept me calm while explaining the process and showed patience and understanding. If I move again I would 100% use this company. It's very rare in this day and age to find that service! thank you.

I wasn't selling my property with Inspire, they were selling my buyers property so I was never their client directly. However, I dealt with Stephen to get updates on the chain below as, at the time I was struggling to get the correct updates I needed from my own estate agents. (We were buying a new build so time was of the essence and need to know exactly where the chain was) Stephen treated us like we were his own clients and I could not fault him for his understanding and determination to provide us updates and chase solicitors/clients when we needed. I would 100% recommend Stephen, if this is how he treats a 'non-client' then to be his own client I could imagine would be incredible. Stephen was an absolute superstar!

Stephen went above and beyond expectations when selling a family member's property. He was sensitive to their needs during the process. He kept me informed of what was happening during the whole sales process. I have no hesitation in recommending Stephen to sell your property

Over the past three years I've dealt with Inspire to buy, let/manage, and finally sell a flat. At all times they have been friendly and approachable, while providing a thoroughly professional service. The fact I chose to engage them after the initial experience should indicate the high regard I have for the Team. Inspire are a small, independent Team that know their business and their area well.

They take time to get to know their customers and anticipate needs, a personal service that is unbeatable in all respects. I have felt well supported throughout the three experiences, and I have no hesitation in recommending Mark and his Team. In recent years I've engaged other agents to sell property, (not in Inspire's area) so I'm in a good position to make comparisons. Inspire are undoubtedly the best, and they would always be my first choice should I need similar services again.

We have just rented a property through Inspire Estate Agents and the whole process has been made so easy and effortless. We previously rented a property through a different agency and everything after they had received our money was a nightmare, so it is nice that this time went without any issues. The staff were all very friendly and helpful and even went above and beyond to squeeze in our check in earlier than planned so that we did not have to pay for the rental van for the whole bank holiday weekend which was extremely helpful and greatly appreciated. Everything so far has been brilliant and I would definitely look to use Inspire again if we were to move in the future, and would highly recommend them to anyone else.

Inspire Estate Agents have been great. I'm 100 miles away from the house they manage for us, nothing is too much trouble for them and I'm completely confident in their managing the property for me. Communication and the overall service is first class. Highly recommended.

Inspire Estates are absolutely excellent. They are professional, friendly and know the market well. If you're a landlord, their letting service is particularly good. I wholeheartedly recommend this company without reservation.

We instructed Inspire Estate Agents after we were let down by another agent. They arranged viewings for us the day after they were instructed and we had an offer which we accepted a week later. Vic Patel handled our sale and he was brilliant, our buyer had a nightmare of a solicitor who kept putting obstacles in our way and even though we felt like giving up Vic was there to keep us and the rest of the chain informed and keep our spirits up. I can't fault the service we received and would highly recommend them to anyone.

I have found Inspire Estate Agents to be consistently friendly and professional, with excellent communication through out all sales and purchases.
