Paul Fox have been fantastic the whole way through the purchase of our house. They are more reliable for contact and updates than the solicitors we have. Always happy to chat, always free for follow up viewings or anything you need from the property. They couldn't do enough to help. The final exchange is still yet to happen but Paul Fox have been a lifeline throughout. Thank you so much

The team at Paul Fox Gainsborough are just the best. We would recommend them without a doubt. They were professional and helpful and nothing was too much trouble during the purchase and sale of our property. Thank you to everyone.

Communication at the Paul Fox Barton branch really does need some improvement. I requested to view a property in October 2025 and initially received a response advising that they had contacted the vendor to arrange a viewing. However, I received no further update until I chased it up.
When I did follow up, I was informed that the property had a leak and required some work, and that they would update me once they had more information. As you can imagine, despite chasing again, I never received any further response. Since then, I have seen that the property is now sold subject to contract, without me ever being contacted.
Paul Fox needs a better process in place to manage and respond to customer queries effectively.

Paul Fox sold a property for us. It turned out to be a very lengthy process with a fair few problems. We were kept informed every step of the way with their first-class service. Very helpful and friendly. Highly recommended, couldn't ask for more!

Paul Fox have been amazing with selling my mums house and I would recommend them again. Lyndsay has been friendly and efficient helping us navigate through the selling process and has gone above and beyond to help. The service they provided was excellent and I would be more than happy to use them again.

What a great company to deal with! I got immediate responses to emails from knowledgeable friendly staff. Everything necessary was carried out by them at my convenience and to my great satisfaction. During the relatively stressful time of selling up, it's a good feeling to know Paul Fox estate agents are there to help, guide and give support.

Very efficient and professional service from initial viewing to purchase and completion of property. Great communication throughout. We would highly recommend Paul Fox Estate Agents, Gainsborough. A big thank you to Sharna and Megan.

If I could give them a minus 1 I would! Absolute mercenaries without an ounce of pride in the job they do. We have listed our property on a modern auction style sale and it turns out they have nothing to do with it, they just passed our details to IAMSOLD which are nothing more than predators themselves! Our contact Ella, simply did not care how much we lost, she sold our property for a price that was nothing more than peanuts, and even when she sold it she made a clause in favour of the buyer!! So even now after day 56, the buyer can pull out and they will not lose their deposit! STAY AWAY FROM THIS TYPE OF AUCTION YOU WILL SEE YOUR HOUSE PRICE REDUCED TO NOTHING AND ESPECIALLY STAY AWAY FROM PAUL FOX EPWORTH AND IAMSOLD.

We used Paul Fox for our house sale recently, they were extremely friendly and helpful throughout the process. They encouraged plenty of the right viewings on our property resulting in a very quick sale. Communication with the office was excellent and they kept us informed of any updates as they happened. We would definitely recommend Paul Fox Estate Agents.

Michelle at Paul Fox has been brilliant, from immediate viewing feedback to sale progression - keeping me updated all the way. Very happy and the sale went through in a little over 2 months!! Would highly recommend.

Reply from Paul Fox Estate Agents
The team at Brigg are amazing. Throughout our sale and purchase they have been professional, courteous and respectful. They kept us fully informed throughout the process and were the lynch pin for communication between the parties in what became a challenging set of circumstances. Special thanks have to go to Becci who always went the extra mile, she went above and beyond to support us. Professional with a personal touch. I would highly recommend them.

Excellent experience with Paul Fox Estate Agents in Scunthorpe. Michelle has been outstanding from start to finish — clear communication, regular updates, and a professional approach throughout. They also have a great selection of properties to choose from. We’re really pleased with the service and will certainly be purchasing more through them in the future.

Where do I start? Paul Fox Estate Agents will definitely be my first choice if I am ever move house again. I recently completed the purchase of a property they were marketing, and from start to finish, I genuinely couldn’t fault the service. Taylor led the process and was outstanding throughout friendly, professional, and incredibly responsive. She kept everything on track and played a key role in ensuring exchange and completion happened promptly. Her communication was second to none, I was kept in the loop at all times with clear, timely updates whenever there had been any developments, Taylor also did a brilliant job liaising between both parties and resolving any issues that came up her proactive approach really did make a difference. I truly appreciated the effort she put in from day one. Based on this experience, I’ve already recommended Paul Fox to others and wouldn’t hesitate to use them again. It’s one of the first things I mention when talking about moving is how good they were. Thanks again, Taylor and the team at Paul Fox

Had this company value my house over 12 months ago with a view to them listing it. Their valuation was the lowest out of the three we obtained and their costs the most expensive. Needless to say we didn’t use them and sold the property for £55,000.00 more than they valued it. Recently we have sold our current house and their extremely arrogant surveyor was employed by our buyers to carry out a survey and valuation. He valued our house much less than the offer we had accepted! Crazy as Paul Fox had the very same house on their books for sale 2 years ago £20,000.00 more than they valued it June 2025 and now it’s fully renovated too! I would avoid this company at all costs! They are arrogant and think they are the font of all in this area operating under a false sense of superiority. Definitely DO NOT recommend.

Property prices have only increased since PF marketed the property two and a half years ago. That, together with the fact that significant renovation has taken place was not taken into account and you valued it 20K cheaper than you marked it almost three years ago, pre-renovation. There are no other like for like properties in this particular area to compare either. The property sold soon after it hit the market having three interested parties. A clear indication that it was marketed at the correct price.
This is our second negative experience with this company and we have every right to review. It’s worth noting that we have never done this sort of thing previously so the impact has been significant enough for us to do so. There are many other unhappy reviews on this platform I note you haven’t shared or responded to. Hence the ‘poor’ overall rating. I did try to speak to your company but was refused met with arrogance. And now you want to discuss. I have no desire to speak further! We have been disappointed and let down enough by this company.

Rude staff, poor communication. Was warned by many people before going with them but went ahead anyway. I feel like the staff are extremely argumentative.
Would rather spend more and go elsewhere. AVOID!

They made their first mistake by advertising the property for the wrong price. Instead of ‘offers from ..’, it was listed as if the minimum price was the asking price. This initiated a series of offers ranging from £25,000 to £5,000 below the minimum price (as agreed by their Valuer). This mistake was amended.
I mistakenly allowed Paul Fox to conduct all the early viewings. Eventually, by coincidence, I was at the property when a viewing took place. At about 4.30 the agent had to leave. I didn’t know why because the viewers still had things to see and questions to ask. I stayed to assist.
I was given a catalogue of complaints about Paul Fox: inability to book viewings, lack of knowledge about the property, viewing only available after 4.00 pm?, staff unavailable, transport not available……
A real eye opener. For the next viewing I made myself available and received the same complaints.
I was on the verge of ending my use of Paul Fox when they phoned with an offer £5000 below the minimum price. I was advised to accept but declined. The Paul Fox valuation was £20,000 above the minimum asking price.
The following day I received a satisfactory offer from the clients I had shown around. They too related the same issues with Paul Fox.
