Professional, approachable, accountable
From the initial valuation, photos, marketing & house visits through to sale & completion, Hodders have been both professional, approachable and accountable.
Nicola's handling of a more complicated chain to completion is of particular note. I would highly recommend their services.

Hodders were very friendly & professional, I would definitely recommend Hodders, Chertsey
Hodders were very friendly and professional. We only had a couple of viewings and got an offer straightaway which we accepted. Nicola the Sales Progressor chased everything to ensure everyone was in the loop and the move went smoothly, from liaising with the chain and the Solicitors. I would definitely recommend them.

Going the Extra Mils!
I’m not a great fan of Estate Agent services in 21st Century. All seems a little formulaic and impersonal.
Hodders are not hugely different however as is often the case Nicola Elson has been exceptional!
Good if not great communication to start with but when it really mattered very good.

Aaron has been absolutely brilliant in helping me find suitable tenants for my recently refurbished property. He worked quickly and efficiently, keeping me updated throughout and making the whole process really straightforward. What stood out most was his friendly, approachable, and helpful manner — nothing ever felt like too much trouble.
Abby was also fantastic to work with. I’ve worked with her before and, as always, she brought great energy, a good sense of humour, and a real focus on getting the job done. She makes the process enjoyable and always delivers.
I’m extremely happy with the service I received and would highly recommend both Aaron and Abby to anyone looking for reliable, proactive, and genuinely lovely letting agents. Thank you both!

First time buyer experience: fantastic!
Stuart in Sales was a pleasure to speak with. He helped me find properties that were tailored to what I was looking for, particularly as a first time buyer. He was very kind over the phone and made every effort to keep me informed during the initial stages.
I then met Nicola in the stages of when buying the house and she was always prompt with her responses, allowed for open and honest conversations between us, and was always there to help with all my queries. It’s been so easy to work with Nicola.
I’m grateful that my first property buying experience has been with Hodders - they’re a great company with some fantastic employees!

WATCH YOUR DEPOSIT
This company at Walton on Thames clearly sides with the landlord on post tenancy inspections . They allow the landlord to interfere in the inspectors report claiming wear and tear issues, claiming things the landlord and myself had agreed on previously and taking a very large portion of the deposit .. clearly on the landlords side for obvious reasons .. watch your deposit unscrupulous landlords will rip you off as nd hodders will back them

Although our sale didn't end up completing, Hodders were great throughout.
Nicola in particular was outstanding through the process. It has been a particularly difficult journey with the stamp duty demand, and our seller's solicitors lack of response and Nicola supported us incredibly. I felt like the purchase was in good hands with Nicola and she listened to our concerns and put our minds at ease that she was on top of everything, which she was. Super proactive, responsive, empathetic, responsive and a generally a great person.
I look forward to dealing with Nicola again for when we decide to purchase.
