Battle Testimonials

"Cannot fault the service and quality of advice. Would not have wanted to go through the process without the support and guidance of Wendy and the team in the Battle office. Would have no hesitation to recommend Batcheller Monkhouse."

"Excellent personal service throughout."

"I moved to Batcheller Monkhouse from another estate agent where my property was not being sold. Quickly it was sold with the help of Carl from the sales office. Many thanks."

"The team at Batcheller Monkhouse provided a first class service! They valued, provided advisory services, marketed and sold my late parents' family pile. A high value Listed property which had been in the family for 50+ years. I would say the service was “a cut above” what I had expected. Very professional, sensitive to emotive aspects of selling a family home, evidently experienced with the sale of high value Listed properties, easy to work with, naturally consultative, absolutely not stuffy and stuck up like some of the national agents, resilient and persistent. These are some of the qualities that come to mind."

"Never believe that all Estate Agents are the same. BM know what they are doing and how to get over problems. They were absolutely superb when we had some very sticky moments with the need for retrospective planning and managed to renegotiate a price after the purchaser had an over-the-top survey report done. I would recommend this firm and everyone in the office for good old fashioned negotiation and keeping me informed."

"I just wanted to say a massive thanks for all your support and help during this process! We are in the house and most importantly the kids absolutely love it - I’m sure we will make many amazing memories! You pushed the sale forward at pace and updated us regularly so thanks again for being so wonderful. You seriously provided top class service and if I ever sell you will be my first port of call!"

"We've been tremendously impressed with the service we received from Batcheller Monkhouse, in particular Carl Underhill. Always patient and proactive and extremely experienced in the market. Excellent all round and would highly recommend to anyone looking to sell their property."

"Very happy with Batcheller Monkhouse! Wendy was an absolute star from start to finish. A lovely woman and a great agent. Very approachable and superb communication. Can’t fault a thing about the whole process. 5 stars."

"Thank you to the team at Batcheller Monkhouse Battle - professional, helpful and supportive from start to finish. Selling houses can be an involved process and I very much appreciated their positive and calm approach, despite a few unexpected hitches. "

"I have been thoroughly impressed by the focus, professionalism and support provided by Batcheller Monkhouse. I highly recommend this Estate Agency, sellers and buyers alike are wonderfully looked after."

"We bought through Batcheller Monkhouse nearly 30 years ago and they've patiently given us un-pushy advice on many occasions as we considered selling. Now we've actually sold our complicated property we can't fault their negotiating skill and empathetic support throughout. They showed a deep understanding of what living in the country is about and our only regret is that they cannot find our next house for us, many miles away."

"We would like to thank Wendy and her colleagues for the highly professional service we received in selling our property in Robertsbridge. We recommend the Battle team without reservation."

"I found Batcheller Monkhouse wonderful to work with. In particular, Wendy Stirk. I found her straightforward, honest, efficient and knowledgeable. For me it was really a great experience. I will definitely be recommending Wendy and all at the Battle Office. Thanks very much to all."

"Recently bought a property with BM and was very impressed with their service throughout. Special thanks to Carl, who was FANTASTIC and an absolute pleasure to deal with."

"We changed to Batcheller Monkhouse after having no success with another agent and were impressed by their continued enthusiasm, professionalism and determination in a difficult market during 2020, when our lower chain broke 5 times! Wendy and Robert were stoic in the face of these setbacks and steered us to a successful sale and exchange with our original buyers, over an 8 month period."

"This is now the third sale that the rather marvellous people at Batcheller Monkhouse have handled for me. As usual it was a seamless transition from valuation through to completion, all managed with professionalism and expertise and that little bit of magic that other agents seem to lack. Huge thanks to the wonderful Lisa and Wendy at the Battle office. I look forward to our next transaction."

"Really excellent service. Their professionalism made the emotional experience of property transactions become pleasant. I would recommend this office to anyone!"

"A huge thank you to Batcheller Monkhouse for selling my home. Special mention to Wendy for her negotiation skills and to Lisa for her efficiency. A very professional Estate Agency."

"I would like to take the opportunity once again to say a huge thank you for all the hard work that you have done for us all with regards to this sale, it really is appreciated and who knows if / when we decide to move we will definitely be giving you a call as we all feel that your service and attention to detail has been exemplary."

"We used Batcheller Monkhouse to sell our house. This was quite an extensive property with large formal grounds that we thought may prove slightly problematic when lockdown came into force in March 2020. However, we found Batcheller Monkhouse to be highly efficient and very professional. Everyone we had contact with was intelligent, courteous, understanding and, as I mentioned, professional. Their attention to detail when asking about the house and land was very reassuring as was their sympathetic approach to viewings during lockdown. Having looked at other properties ourselves - sometimes with other companies - we thought there was little to compare with the way viewings were handled and feedback given: Batcheller Monkhouse was by far the superior agent. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend their services."

"To Carl and his great team at BM. Best house sale we've ever had (and we've had a few!) Well done."

"What can I say apart from awarding several gold stars. This was an emotional sale of my late husband's house which had been on going for over a year with another Agent. Frustrated by Brexit, floods, and Covid my stepson and I handed the sale to Wendy Stirk at the Battle branch, and a sale was secured within a few days. This went through despite glitches in the chain, as speedily as possible thanks to Wendy's indomitable hard work in chasing varied extra firms of Solicitors who "popped out of the woodwork", along the way for our buyers' mortgage company. Thank you so much to all the team and particularly Wendy in achieving an excellent outcome. I have also used BM in my recent sale and purchase of two other properties, thank you Matthew for a record breaking time scale and I am happily settled into my new home. "

"May we take this opportunity to thank your team for making the sale so successful. Your service has been excellent and most professional."

"My wife and I cannot praise Wendy Stirk highly enough for the way she coped and handled the sale of our property."

"I am sure you are aware of the excellent asset you have in Wendy Stirk. During the sale it was clear to us that she was doing an exceptional amount of work behind the scenes. Her cheerful professionalism gave us great confidence and comfort and I am sure that it speeded and ensured a satisfactory outcome."

"We have sold and purchased through Batcheller Monkhouse 3 times. For us they are the 'go to' Agent, they always have a great range of superb properties and are always approachable, being involved right the way through what is nearly always not a straightforward process. In our experience there is no other Estate Agent in the region that comes anywhere near the standards of professionalism and attention to detail that the partners and staff observe at all times."

"Batcheller Monkhouse were attentive throughout the process, from the production of the sale particulars through to completion. Their advice on pricing was bang on and we were able to generate plenty of interest, whilst still achieving a strong asking price. When our original buyer dropped out at the last minute, Batcheller Monkhouse had us straight back on the market even though it was early December, we were under offer again before Christmas!"

"Batcheller Monkhouse offered the scale necessary to market a property successfully in this age, together with the professionalism and local knowledge seldom shown by larger agents. The personal attention and professional expertise really set them apart and at all times during the sale I felt fully supported by experts with my interests at heart. Their commercial pragmatism and good humour were of enormous cheer during the sale process."

"Thinking we needed an agent with a London office to sell our house we spent several fruitless months on the market with no viewers. From the moment we instructed Batcheller Monkhouse we felt in safe hands, their total professionalism and realistic advice on value were just what we need to achieve the sale of our much loved family home."

"Batcheller Monkhouse were head and shoulders above the competition when we bought our house through them, naturally we trusted them when it came to sell. They were also more optimistic in terms of value than the other agent we consulted, which they then exceeded. With a proactive approach throughout, including managing a last-minute hitch with great tact, I would not hesitate to recommend them."
