Blackshaw Homes
Every town has a variety of styles of estate agent, from the soulless "corporate" agency driven by figures, to the one-man band; from arty-contemporary to pushy-salesy. Each type tends to appeal to a specific sector of the property-owning community, and rightly so - buyers and sellers alike need to be comfortable working with an agent that reflects their own values.

So perhaps it's time we actually spelt out exactly the type of approach we strive to adopt. Certainly many have commented that our offices and website has a pleasant contemporary feel, but what does this actually say about the people behind the business, and how would this impact on you as a buyer or seller.
Services
Whether you are letting a house or flat for the first time or are an experienced landlord with a portfolio of properties, there are different services we offer to suit your needs. Our dedicated team of professionals also offer extensive local knowledge, as well as a friendly, attentive service at all times.
After my Mother moved into a residential home, we had to sell the home she had lived in for 66 years, not a process we were looking forward to. Thank goodness we found Blackshaws. I can't praise Rob and his colleagues highly enough (if there were a 6th star I would add it). We had lots of viewings very quickly and a few offers which were communicated to us immediately.
Ensure that you get your finances in order and know exactly how much you can borrow, with an "in principle" agreement from your lender. Always speak to an independent mortgage adviser to find the best rates (we can help you with this) See preparing to buy for more information. To speak to our independent mortgager adviser or to arrange a free meeting call our office on 01702 462 455.
For homeowners wishing to sell their property and buy another, it's the classic dilemma - which do you do first, buy or sell? There is probably no all-encompassing answer. Typically, people initially investigate the market to find out what they can buy for their money. Inevitably, during this research they fall in love with the "ideal" property.
The overall shortage of housing stock in relation to demand could mean that unprepared buyers risk losing out on their dream home. You can bet your bottom dollar that if you instinctively like a particular property, other buyers will as well. It's therefore extremely important that you are in a well prepared and proceedable position before you start looking.

If you are in the market for a great estate agent look no further than Debbie at Blackshaw! Debbie is professional, responsive and extremely efficient. Buying property has never been easier since I started using Debbie. I have always been delighted with her service. Debbie goes beyond what you would expect of a normal estate agent, she often responds out of hours and on weekends to ensure transactions are as smooth as possible. I would highly recommend Debbie and I would never use another estate agent again.

They say moving house is one of the most stressful thing's one can do in their life time! But, using Blackshaws is most definitely one of the best thing's you can do to take away that stress!
From start to finish there is nothing they won't do to help. They get to know you and what your requirements are. Debbie is extremely helpful, as well as friendly and nothing is never too much trouble, however large or small your question/problem may be.
Definitely recommend them!

Debbie was attentive, friendly and proactive in helping us to buy our house. We had a strict deadline and she was able to work with that and help keep things moving. She was a pleasure to work with. Thank you Debbie!

Perry assisted us with the sale of a house and was incredibly helpful, professional and responded quickly to all of our enquiries. He went above and beyond to help us and we couldn't be more grateful. Would definitely recommend Blackshaw Homes to anyone in need of their services.

We chose Blackshaw Homes to sell our flat as we didn't have a great experience with the previous estate agents. Debbie was amazing throughout the whole process and she couldn't of done any more to ensure our sale went through quickly and efficiently. We were very impressed with the service from Blackshaw Homes and would like to thank Debbie in particular for all of her help.

As a landlord looking to rent out my property I approached Blackshaw Homes as they were most local to the area in Southchurch. I spoke with Linda the Lettings Manager and she was very responsive, enthusiastic and helpful. She viewed the property (this even included a walkthrough recorded to DVD so as to avoid any future disputes) and in less than a week she had found me the perfect tenants! It has been pleasing and reassuring that Linda has also been very responsive to my emails & phone calls throughout & she has liaised on my behalf with external professionals and the tenants to address a couple

I really don’t know where to start with our experiences trying to offer and secure a property through Blackshaws in Eastwood weekend of 21st June.
I truly believe we lost because we were discriminated towards by the agent due to my occupation!
Calls not returned when colleagues said they would. I was told of you want this property and you Don’t… get a call by 9.15 call us. No call so I called at 9.20am to be told colleague now out for the day and there was no answer about my offer.
We increased our offer numerous times. Not once was we called to give us feedback as to what the

There is a real benefit when moving something as substantial as your home, to using a team that take the time to understand you, your needs and desires.
Debbie and Amy took the time to understand us and to really work with us, keeping us fully updated of every step of the process.
I really can’t thank them enough and they both deserve the recognition that it is service like theirs that makes Blackshaw Homes what it is.

I called Blackshaw homes when we started to think about selling our property. We weren't sure what our house was worth or even if selling was definitely the right choice for us but Blackshaw homes couldn't have done any more. There was no pressure and they were so friendly and helpful. All the staff work well together as a team and there's always someone to help. I like the fact it's a family run business and has all the personal touches you sometimes lose in the bigger chains of estate agents. I would recommend them to anyone!

I've been with a few agents as a rental tenant and I have to say blackshaw homes have been the worst! Unprofessional! Left us for weeks with no lock on front door and smashed window on main door! The property had mice.. Nothing was done! The property had damp.. Nothing was done! We were also left with no gas as the boiler broke.. They told me to try and fix it!! When I said I couldn't they then sent one of their staff (office worker) to have a go!! I would avoid them at all costs!
