I would like to say what wonderful agents Strakers have been, assisting me with sales over the past months. Selling your house can be so stressful and people so unpredictable but they are sensitive and consistent in their approach to move the sale forward and work through issues which there usually are to some degree. We had quite a complex chain involved with our sale and it was taking a while to get responses from our buyers solicitors. The good thing about the Straker's team is that they have staff allocated to the case and when asked questions if they do not know they will find out and get back to you. The sale has now gone through and from start to finish Strakers remained focused and helpful. I would not hesitate to recommend them to future buyers and sellers. To me they are the best in the area and I did alot of research on this beforehand.

Strakers are dreadful. So much miscommunication and they deny what has been said.
Not good value for money as you still end up managing your property yourself.
I would not recommend them at all they have very poor attitude.

I have been letting my property through Strakers for over 10 years, not because I enjoy letting through them, but because I recieved the house with a tenant, whom is a lovely lady and gives me no grief whatsoever, and strakers had originally organised the let. ...

The worst lettings/estate agency I have ever had the misfortune to deal with. All staff dealt with have been incredibly unpleasant, contentious, arrogant, unprofessional, unknowledgeable and unhelpful. This includes the practice manager who failed to respond appropriately or professionally to a complaint. I am ...

The process of buying and selling a house as everyone knows, is immensely stressful. Partly due to the unpredictability of buyers/sellers and the changing local market. We have used Devizes Strakers partly because they have the best record of success in the area, but ...

Awful experience selling. Was told to sell with them so they could represent more firmly to a house we were interested in buying. Absolutely untrue! They asked nothing about our property and were unable to respond to queries. They left our property unlocked over a ...
