We were very happy with the helpful & friendly staff (especially Sarah)who gave us encouragement at the start of our journey of buying our new home. Barbara helped to 'iron out' some niggling creases at the end of our journey, stepping in, hence, hurrying the completion of the sale: we were over the moon. Thank you!
We think the agent's fees were at a fair price.
Contact your local branch for details.

Kindly note that legally, letting agents need to publish information about their tenancy fees, government-approved redress schemes and client money protection schemes on their website and on third party websites (on which agents are listed). For properties to lease/rent in England, agents need to keep this information up to date and precise on allAgents or specify within the property description.

I decided not to continue to sell my property with Jan Forsters due to unprofessional conduct in both rudeness and feeling used by the company. Putting a sign outside my door when I hadnt agreed to sell and then trying to share some of the blame is unacceptable. I will not even view properties now... Read Full Review

Jan Forsters fees were originally higher than another estate agent we used, however they matched the price of the fees we had been quoted from the other estate agents.
