Very professional, helpful and friendly. We like how the agents that took us around our viewings were not at all pushy and gave us time and space to look around. After our offer was accepted, Stephen... See more

Treated with respect

After the death of my Mum in April 2026, I dealt with Joe Oakley in Worthing. He showed compassion and was very responsive to my many queries about ending the tenancy on her property. There were also some issues after the property was returned and he supported me through this. I then dealt with another member of the team, Jonathan Tonks, who was also excellent. I experienced some issues trying to obtain the deposit back from TDS and Jonathan was extremely supportive in a very painful process. They are both a credit to Charters and I had a really positive experience of being treated with compassion at a very stressful time.

Impressive Sales Progressor

I have been extremely impressed with the service provided by our Sales Progressor - Stephen Henry. His communication was outstanding throughout the entire process, keeping all parties informed and ensuring that everything moved forward smoothly and efficiently whilst being friendly and approachable at the same time. Thanks Stephen!

Helpful and informative …

Stephen helped us through a process that was long, and sometimes complicated. He always did his best to be helpful and to keep us informed. You can rely on Charters to do their best for you.

Personable, supportive and professional

The team were really supportive and communication was prompt. Initially I instructed Brand Vaugh however they were in the process of merging with Charters. This was seamless and a credit to their professionalism as they were, no doubt, going through the trials and tribulations of significant changes. One thing I would do differently is I would use my own solicitor rather than the one recommended by the estate agents. I found this service unsatisfactory.

Just a note of thanks to Ella

Just a note of thanks to Ella. Who went the extra mile to support finding a property. Ella is a person who displays a professional and attention to detail that makes the difference to a positive customer experience.

Charters Estate Agents

I have been dealing with Harry Fisher in relation to our rental property. He has always responded promptly to enquiries and helped out where he can.
Harry and the team at Charters are head and shoulders above the competition in the area.

Responsive and helpful staff

Responsive and helpful staff. Great at sending through potential properties of interest that match your search criteria. Occasionally can be difficult to get ahold of someone by phone but staff are generally good at following up missed calls. Overall made what can be a stressful experience a positive one! :)
