Really happy with the service provided by the team. Lisa went the extra mile for us in the Sales progression team. We dealt with a relatively simple chain, but there were broken lines of communication between the conveyancers. Lisa worked extremely hard here (along with Emily P too) to build a bridge between each party involved. This made the process soooo much easier to deal with.
Great communicators from the outset with Jim, the visit from Mark (he gave us the confident we needed right away and didn't bother with other estate agents), the photographer did a great job and the girls did amazing

We have recently just sold and purchased through Harris + Wood, and if I end up moving again, they will be the first ones I call! Extremely professional, a modern agent with a different view of marketing, and fantastic communication, to name just a few!
I had had my home on the market with others for some time with no luck, but within a couple of viewings with H+W, the offer was in! They even ended up selling it to someone who had sold through the previous agent.
I have to make a special mention to a few key people, firstly, Marcus, is brilliant, he remembered me from a telephone conversation

First impressions after getting out house on the market today and we are really impressed!
One thing I wasn’t expecting is the quality of the photographs of our house… WOW! James not only did a fantastic job, he is also a really friendly guy!
Thanks for snapping some lovely pictures of our dog too! Even more impressive, considering he will not sit still 😆

I have been very impressed with the service Harris + Wood delivered with the sale of my flat recently. They are a very professional team and their communication was excellent. I would highly recommend them and would definitely use them again in the future. Lisa worked especially hard in the final part of the sale, and I am very grateful to her. Thank you

The lettings team of Harris + Wood have been an absolute pleasure to work with from the start!
After viewing our rental address and making an agreement, our tenancy paperwork moved very swiftly and the team were very accommodating to any questions which we had during this time.
At present, we rarely experience any maintenance issues in our property, however when there are matters of concern they are handled both efficiently and professionally by Nancy, which we are very thankful for.
I would strongly recommend this company for anybody looking to move property and cannot thank them enough for

I am very pleased with the process so far for selling my property. I have been in contact with many members of the team who have all been very attentive, efficient and professional. I was very impressed with the care and attention to detail with the photography, not to mention the doggy pictures which is a very unique idea! The stunning photos have really helped to reassure me for what can be a stressful experience moving home. Thank you to all at Harris and Wood.

I can honestly say from experience that the team at Harris + Wood are the best estate agents in Colchester. I can't recommend them enough! Their personal touch and care throughout the sale process and through to completion is incredible. We had some issues in completing the sale, completely unrelated to Harris + Wood, but Emily and the team were a huge help and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you so much for everything and if we ever sell again the future we will definitely come back to you over anyone else.

Just had my property valued and listed with Harris Wood. Really good advice from their recommended mortgage broker and Paul the estate agent.
Property viewings are ongoing but the lady that came out was friendly and good at showing people around.
Amazing photos of the house, with the added bonus of a pet photo shoot with James Bouckley :)

Harris and wood sold our property within a matter of days and the team there were great with arranging viewers and showing them around. We were kept updated with any information we needed to know about the sale and we were even given information on a recommended mortgage broker. We wouldn’t hesitate on using Harris and Wood again and would recommend them to anyone who is thinking of going up for sale. Thank you to all the team for their help.

I have had a bad experience with a previous estate agent, so I went into the viewing of a house with low expectations if I am honest.
However, I was pleasantly surprised with the whole process.
Alfie was the person I met at the property and he was very polite, upfront and professional, and also a sense of humour (not too serious or up his own) was a breath of fresh air to be honest.
Marcus was another I spoke with who was also straight with me from the get go.
Can i just mention it was only 3 days from viewing to being accepted to solicitors involved (Really fast)
Very professional team all
