Estate agents sometimes get a bad press, but Ashtons in Hitchin have been just brilliant handling the recent sale of our house.
They proposed a sensible pricing strategy which generated plenty of interest, arranged photography which showed the property to its best advantage and then efficiently handled the many enquiries and viewings.
Once it was under offer (after only a couple of weeks), the team navigated us through to a speedy completion with professionalism and good humour.
Couldn't be happier with their service, and wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

We were shown round a beautiful old barn, Alex made the space feel really magical walking us round but then also let us explore the property ourselves! Ended up being slightly out of budget as we would want to do Work but so in love with the place!

We had a great experience when looking to purchase our next home. The office were all really friendly and efficient and Julie went out of her way to accommodate us on viewings. Couldn't recommend any more!

We sold our Harpenden house through Ashtons and would highly recommend them. In particular, Jonny whose advise and knowledge getting the house on the market was invaluable, and also Willow for her hard work keeping the sale process moving after we'd accepted an offer. Both were brilliant at keeping up regular communications with us so that we always felt in the loop. A huge thank you to you both and the whole team!

If you need to find a rental home or need to let your property definitely speak to Kirsty @ Ashtons in Harpenden. Absolutely brilliant

My initial experience with Ashtons was not very positive. However, once my son, who had previous knowledge of estate agency became involved Communication and general effort improved.

Used Ashtons as was a prospective buyer of a property they marketed. Not so many issues with the office but the sales progression team were always quite slow to respond and could never get through to the assigned person to my case.
Additionally used ashtons to sell my property and I feel compelled to share my deeply disappointing experience.
The problems began immediately. The agency provided an initial valuation to secure our business in July, only to suggest a £25,000 price reduction after just one week, admitting there was no interest.
Despite agreeing to the reduction, it did not correlate to an increase in activity which would lead to questions around marketing and resource as Ashtons list a lot of properties. By September, they had only managed to secure two viewings. We received absolutely no feedback from either of these viewings, despite requesting it, leaving us completely in the dark.
Lastly thier fees are quite opaque and if youre new to selling read through everything very carefully. In the non flex fees there are baked in withdrawal fees that ensure ashtons get paid regardless if they sell or not. Which gives them little incentive to really push your property in my opinion. The alternative is you pay money up front to them to sell your property which is preposterous. Fundamentally all the agents use rightmove to market your property and that's where most people go to find houses.
In summary: an inaccurate valuation, negligible effort, a complete lack of communication, and a devious fee structure designed to charge you even when they fail to perform.

Initially Ashtons overvalued our property, but have since reduced the price to the true market value, with our agreement of course.
