Selecting from such a wide range of estate agents in our area is not an easy feat and you never know what to expect with an estate agent that is relatively new to the area. However, I knew of the guys at Open House and invited them to value our property. Although we met with other estate agents, these guys seemed the most genuine and honest. Also, they backed up their valuation with more than just a couple of examples of what had sold nearby for what price. They had obviously done a lot of homework and had confidence in their suggested market price. Although their valuation was the highest out of other comparisons, it wasn't a million miles away and was not the only reason I chose them. In under 24 hours, they had 3 viewings lined up. By the following morning, we had an offer. Chris negotiated well and before we new it, we had full asking price from a strong buyer. All went through without a hitch. The team at Open House were always contactable (sometimes away from normal office hours) and not once did I have to chase anything, unlike my experience dealing with other estate agents in the past. The whole process was the smoothest I've experienced with selling a property and I highly recommend Open House Worthing.

Quite disappointing trying to arrange a viewing .. kept calling, kept waiting more than 5 days to simply say, the property is not available.. of course not... But why then kept stating that it was? Just passing my details in every phone discussion, with the back call ...

My experience was completely positive. Friendly, efficient, professional, and honest, with none of the 'saleman's patter' you still get with some other agents... Our sale went smoothly and despite the competitive fee, we still got the the entire service that other agents charge a lot ...

We were hoping to buy a house through Open House but it was instantly clear that Chris lacked the experience to care for both sides of the house selling process and only had the sellers in mind. Because of his terrible attitude, I did not ...

What agent could do to change your mind?
Be polite and ensure you have an idea of vendors expectations so you can offer some level of guidance to the purchasing party. Being rude and difficult to deal with helps no one.Attached Filesnbsp;

We couldn't have been happier with the service provided by Chris and his team.
From the off, they had a hands on approach which included answering any queries we had, irrelavent of importance or time of day. They were very approachable, having a down to ...

We bought our home from a couple using Open House as their agents. While the move was not stress-free (what move ever is), we can happily say that Open House is probably the best agent we've had dealings with.
They were very easy to get ...
