We bought our house through David Phillip estate agent and Annabel was fantastic throughout. She kept in touch regularly, was very friendly and really added a personal touch to the experience. We would absolutely buy a house again through Annabel and would recommend her to anyone... Read more

Our family home of almost 30 years was sold by David Philip; the day to day handling of the viewings and sale was professionally and expertly managed by Annabel Bell. We were guided every step of the way in a competitive market and have full confidence in the advice we received. Communication was prompt and Annabel was excellent at advocating for us and her support has continued following completion. We would highly recommend them as a local independent estate agent....

We cannot thank Annabel Bell and the team at David Philip enough for everything they did to help us move into our new home.<br><br>From first seeing the property online to viewing it in person, right through to dealing with the vendors and solicitors, Annabel was instrumental throughout the entire five-and-a-half-month process. Having not moved house in 15 years, and this being our first move with children, it was naturally a fairly daunting experience. Annabel was brilliant at managing our expectations, calming our nerves and keeping us informed every step of the way.<br><br>The whole team were incredibly friendly, approachable and always happy to help. Communication was excellent, and on the rare occasion someone wasn't immediately available, we always heard back within 24 hours. That level of service made a real difference to us.<br><br>We would highly recommend Annabel and the entire team at David Philip to anybody looking to move into their new home.... Read more

I don't normally write reviews, but I genuinely felt compelled to share how fantastic my experience has been with David Phillip Estate Agents.<br><br>From the very first conversation through to completion, the service we received was exceptional. They not only helped us sell our home but also supported us in finding and purchasing our next property. The whole process felt far more personal than I ever expected from an estate agent.<br><br>I have to give special recognition to Annabel, who was simply outstanding throughout. She was proactive, professional, and always one step ahead. Nothing ever seemed too much trouble, and she consistently kept us informed and reassured, even during the more stressful moments.<br><br>What impressed me most was how invested she was in making sure everything progressed smoothly. She worked closely with the solicitors and all parties involved, chasing when needed and ensuring nothing slipped through the cracks. It genuinely felt as though she cared about the outcome as much as we did.<br><br>Having bought and sold several properties over the years, I know just how frustrating and drawn out the process can be. This time, however, was different. Thanks to Annabel and the team at David Phillip, the sale and purchase were handled smoothly and professionally from start to finish.<br><br>Moving home is often said to be one of life's most stressful experiences, but Annabel's support, knowledge, and determination made a huge difference. She is a real credit to the company.<br><br>Thank you, Annabel, and thank you to everyone at David Phillip Estate Agents. You've made a potentially stressful move feel straightforward, and for that, we're incredibly grateful. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend you to family and friends.... Read more

We bought our house from David Phillip estate agents and the entire process was seamless from beginning to end. Lesa and David were always proactive and extremely helpful and made the buying process stress free. We would strongly recommend their services to anyone wishing to buy or sell their house. Their local knowledge is second to none. Thank you so much David and Lesa.... Read more

Absolutely appalling. The worst experience I have ever had with an estate agency.<br><br>We viewed the house in March 2025 and put an offer in just 48 hours later. Despite chasing repeatedly, we couldn't even get a simple answer as to whether our offer had been accepted or rejected for over a month. Through this time we were repeatedly informed a decision would be made the next week but to no avail. Goal posts continued to be moved throughout, 'you need to be on the market' then 'you need to sell your house first' and then finally 'you need to be selling to a cash buyer'.<br><br>Eventually, we moved forward, paid our deposit and got to the stage where the solicitors were dealing with everything. You would think the estate agent's involvement would be relatively straightforward at this point. Apparently not.<br><br>Towards completion, we started receiving up to 5 calls a day from David and Lesa telling us to chase our solicitors and get the purchase completed. This went on for weeks. We both work full-time and were constantly being interrupted by calls and emails from them demanding that we chase professionals who were already dealing with the transaction. We obliged but we should not have been placed in this position.<br><br>We were also repeatedly told that the house would be put back on the market if completion wasn't progressing within days. This was particularly frustrating because, at the same time, the seller's own solicitor was not ready to complete and necessary building documentation had still not been obtained.<br><br>The constant pressure, warnings and attitude throughout the process were completely unnecessary. Buying a house is stressful enough without an estate agent making the situation even more difficult.<br><br>It is also worth mentioning that the seller was a family member of David Phillip and this may have influenced the way the situation was handled. On multiple occasions, the estate agents actively argued in support of the seller's position. This included telling us that the retention was immaterial because the outstanding works would be completed, and separately endorsing the seller’s attempt to increase the agreed price unless we completed within days. Despite repeated assurances from David that he was being objective, the advice and commentary we received was consistently one-sided and far from independent.<br><br>And then came completion day — the absolute disaster that summed up the entire experience.<br><br>Contracts had been exchanged. The sellers had received their money that morning. All we wanted was the keys to the house we'd just bought.<br><br>I spent the entire day calling Lesa and David trying to arrange the key collection. Every time there was another excuse. Eventually, at around 8pm (10 hours after funds transfer), after spending the entire day chasing them, the seller was supposed to meet me at the property. Instead, the keys were left under a rock. To make matters worse, not all of the keys had even been provided, with the garage fobs omitted entirely (and were never subsequently delivered).<br><br>The developer was ultimately responsible for providing the keys, but after all of the pressure the estate agency had placed on everybody else throughout the transaction, I would have expected them to ensure that something as basic as completion-day key handover had actually been coordinated.<br><br>From start to finish, this was an unnecessarily stressful, poorly communicated and deeply unprofessional experience. I would strongly encourage everyone to avoid this agency.<br><br>Do your research, ask about relationships between the seller and the agent, and think very carefully before trusting this agency to handle what is the biggest and most stressful purchase of your life.<br><br>I sincerely hope nobody else has to go through what we did. And I genuinely hope that the level of professionalism and “objectivity” is better when they're selling a property that isn't being sold by a family connection.... Read more

After having been listed with an alternative agent for over 12 months, we switched to David Phillip and they took us from listing going live to completed sale in just 9 weeks!
There are estate agents and then there is David Phillip. They are at the cutting edge of their industry; they don’t just list your property they actively market it. Their process is fantastic, from the ariel photography, 3D tour and digital marketing tactics through to their personal and professional approach.
Lesa, Trudy and David made it their mission to get our house sold and I am convinced that it was their proactive communication and personal nurturing of every viewing that resulted in the fantastic offer and super quick completion that they achieved for us.
We really cannot thank you guys enough. If you’re looking to sell your home in and around the Bramhope area, you’d be mad not to use David Phillip.... Read more

Absolutely fantastic service from start to finish. We have moved house a few times but have never had an estate agents who were so invested in making sure we sold our house for the best possible price. Once we had sold STC, Trudy was excellent, always responding to phone calls promptly and going the extra mile to ensure we completed. Thank you to all the team, we wouldn't hesitate to use you again.... Read more

I would just like to say a very big “Thank You” to David, Trudi and especially Lesa for an absolutely fabulous service. As always, there were trials and tribulations throughout the process, but Lesa was there at all times, even on her days off, to help and keep the sales process well on track. I was kept fully informed at every step of the way - she really did a very professional job throughout a very stressful time. Thank you so much. I have and would recommend anyone selling their home to use David Phillip Estate Agents in Bramhope.... Read more

We came to be selling on our properties in Harrogate which had £1M+ value - and we wanted to seek out an agent with fresh ideas, solid credentials and enthusiam throughout the whole business. Certainly no impersonal call centre roulette. We found David, Lesa and Trudy to be absolutely superb and our house sale was agreed at lightning speed with the whole process managed very efficiently. I would not hesitate in using them again and would recommend this business to anyone wishing to market property in North Leeds and Harrogate. I already made one recommendation and a house sale was achieved within weeks.... Read more
