Balgores Property Avis 

I unfortunatly chose Balgores as my managing agent.
So many issues, nothing ever compleated professionally.
The two "ultra ideal" tenants moved five people in on day one (no checks)
The tenants gurantor was again not checked, later found to be dutch national, no chance of ever getting anything off him since brexit.
Landlord rent/legal protection insurance not taken out despite taking the fee for three years. When we came to claim, the company had not been paid. Balgores response was to cancel our management contract!!!!
We had to use bailiffs to get tenents out - cost a fortune in lost rent etc.
Even getting the ideal tenents deposite back was a fiasco.
We then took Balgores to court, they settled out of court so as no CCJ would appear against them.
This company is incompetant at a level that cannot be described, I have email addesses of 20+ different staff, staff turnover is a good indicator of a useless company. Unsurprisingly any problem was always due to someone who had left.
I ended up actually feeling sorry for the staff, the way you feel pity for alcoholics/drug addict and homeless people - lives out of control - people who need help to sort out the mess they cannot even comprehend.

If your a landlord - join NRLA - saved my life.

Abi and Mackensie have been a massive help to us whilst buying our first property, getting everything done so quickly as they were so on it. Answering all of our questions along the way, no matter how silly.
Highly recommend!

We just exchanged on our property in Elm Park.
Donna was instrumental in making this happen in such a short timeframe. She answered my emails and concerns quickly and comprehensively. Thank you so much, Donna and the Balgores team.

Attentive, communicative and professional

They really went above and beyond to get not just the acceptance of the offer but all the way to completion

This must be one of the shortest time to completion this year

Balgores hornchurch is a 100% must

This is the second time we have used Michael, Michael initially did our first mortgage 5 years ago and has just assisted with our remortgage. Michael had the difficult job of trying to secure us a good deal, this was challenging especially with the bank of England rising the rates, however Michael managed to find us the best rate at the time. Mackensie was excellent keeping us updated with the progress of our mortgage application. We will definitely use them when we renew in 5 years time.

While we didn’t use Balgores as our agent, we found Donna (Hornchurch Branch) absolutely fantastic in keeping us up to date and chasing through the exchange of our property and others in the chain. Reliable, professional and honest.

Good service and pleased with the proactive approach from the team, particularly Donna who helped drive the exchange for the chain.
Professional company.

We have just exchanged contracts on our house move via the Balgores Upminster Branch who we have thanked. We’d also like to thank Donna from the Hornchurch branch for her wonderful service in keeping us informed and upto date all along the way.
All the best from
David & Maureen Leech

Excellent service, staff extremely helpful, nothing too much trouble for them. I would recommend this company to anyone thinking of buying or selling a property. Thank you all at Balgores for everything you have done to get my property sold.

Michael and Mackensie were excellent. Michael is very knowledgeable and was able to talk us through all of our options in this difficult climate. He worked hard and on a short time frame to secure us the best possible mortgage. Mackensie was excellent keeping us updated with the progress of our mortgage application. We will definitely use them when we renew in a few years time.

Lewis was very helpful in breaking down the mortgage process and supporting all the way through to the offer and Hayley is always keeping me updated of happenings . They team made the process less stressful. I will surely recommend family and friends and will be using the services again.

Brilliant service from the Mortgage Advice Bureau - Gemma Doganca (Mortgage Adviser). Gemma has been by my side for almost a year from viewings and offers through to purchase! She's been a consistent ally throughout (including 2 mortgage applications and offers as the first purchase fell through!) and is highly responsive and incredibly knowledgeable. She is generous with her time and is always proactive and works with your best interests in mind. Her colleague Rohima has also been regularly checking in and helped keep things moving along. Thanks both!

Balgores Upminster were great at keeping me updated with the progression of my house purchase and were proactive in contacting other estate agents and solicitors. A special mention to Donna, Abbie, Chris and Claire. Peter helped me secure the best mortgage in these ever changing times and they all worked hard as a team to get me moved in!

Gemma & Rohima from.day 1 have been fantastic, dream team. Everything was simple with them. Thanks highly recommend.

Abi and Mackensie have been amazing. As first time buyer it was so lovely to have someone like Abi who could help us navigate things we were not sure about and she was able to get our mortgage offer submitted quickly!
Mackensie has been a huge help with things behind the scenes and worked very quickly to get an error corrected on our offer!

Great experience! For a first time buyer, trying to buy at a time when interest rates were increasing every 3 months was an added stress to an already overwhelming process, but I couldn't have asked for a better team supporting me than at Balgores, Loughton. They walked me through every step of the way, recommended some fantastic solicitors and brokers, and were constantly ahead of the game to ensure as smooth a sale as possible. Thanks Jack!

Christian and Rohima have been so helpful and always on the other end of the phone when needed! They are my go to and give the best service you could ask for. Highly recommend thank you

Our experience with Michael Gibbon was faultless. He went above and beyond to explain every step of the process and provide alternative options, it really felt like he cared about us and wanted to get the best deal possible to suit our needs. As first time buyers Michael guided us through the process step by step.He informed us of when to do each step so we wouldn't lose out on any money.

Michael even contacted us on his day off as interest rates were rising and he wanted us to secure the lower deal. He keeps us up to date with any decreases so we can move over to lower rates before signing our contract. I would recommend Michael to anyone looking to buy a house as he made the experience stress free and we felt supported throughout (even after the mortgage offer). We want to thank Michael and his team for everything.

The mortgage advice and service provided by Sean Londors has been second to none. He managed to secure a mortgage offer for us in 4 days, where I am still waiting after 5 weeks with another broker. Also, the teamwork between Sean and the team at Balgores Basildon has been faultless. Thank you so much for making such a positive impact so quickly. It has been a pleasure.

Can’t recommend Paul Young enough! He was brilliant in sorting mine and my partners life insurance, health insurance, income protection and everything inbetween. We found it really helpful to be able to talk to Paul on the phone and he talked us through everything we needed to know in a way we understood. He definitely got us the best policy for us and our needs and also took all the hard work and stress out of it. I’ve already recommend him to family members and they had the same excellent service. Thanks again Paul
