What Our Clients Say

Testimonials
Joan, Leigh on sea

I was at my wits end with my property. I had let it out to a local professional thinking that all would be ok. But within 6 months he had left owing 3 month’s rent and having destroyed my former home. I just could not afford the thousands of pounds to put the house back together but at the same time I couldn’t afford to keep paying the mortgage on the property. I really thought I was going to have my house repossessed until I heard about Joanne and Essex Property Angel. Within 2 days I had met with Joanne and she had listened to what I needed. A week later Joanne started dealing with my problems and finally I could start to sleep at night. 3 months on and I now don’t have to think about my property at all because I know I has all been taken care of. Thank you so much.

Trevor, Basildon but now Southend

I had to sell my house as my wife had fallen ill and I couldn’t afford to keep it on my own. Joanne, bought my house and then arranged for me to move in to one of Essex Property Angels flats near the Cliffs Pavilion. Once I had sold the house I was left with lots of debts and Joanne and Sarah helped me deal with all of those and helped me negotiate them all down so I only had to pay a fraction to clear them.

Paul, Rayleigh

Essex Property Angel were buying our house and we phoned Joanne on the day before we were due to move, during the conversation we mentioned we had run out of boxes for packing. Within the hour Joanne had delivered all of the boxes we could have needed. It was those small things that made a big difference in our immigration being stress free and simple.

Chris, Chelmsford

I rang Essex Property Angel after hearing about them through Facebook. I had bought my house just before the crash and so when I came to sell I realised I owed more on my mortgage than my house was worth. I called a couple of estate agents but no one could help me. I really needed to move as my wife was pregnant again and we had run out of room. Joanne worked out an arrangement with me where she paid more than the house was worth and my family and I were able to move on with our lives.

Gill, Southend

I had found my dream home in Ipswich but unfortunately the person buying my house dropped out. It looked like I was going to lose my perfect bungalow. Then I received a leaflet through the door from Essex Property Angel. From making the call Jo gave me an offer and my house was sold and the money in my bank within 3 weeks. A brilliant service, I would often call at 8pm in the evening when I had finished work and I was always able to speak with her and know what was happening.

For landlords, the conversation has largely focused on legal changes, notice grounds and possession rights. But behind the scenes, councils, housing providers and support services are also adapting to an entirely new landscape, one that could have significant consequences over the coming months.

We are happy to provide references from professional bodies that we work with including solicitors and surveyors. We can also give you a list of previous clients who we have bought houses from so you can get their opinion on our Angels service.

We also don’t charge you any fees, along with the fact we pay any fees you incur, including solicitor fees and costs for energy performance certificates.

  • As quickly as you need us to. We have bought properties in 24 hours although this is not the norm. We will get the sale completed in a time frame that suits you. Quite often when we are buying people’s houses they say to us that it is going too quick and so we slow everything down. We are guided by you and what you want.

  • Absolutely. We have bought houses that were literally falling down. So there is noting that we haven’t seen. So please don’t be embarrassed and give us call or fill out the contact form today.

  • Yes we will. We quite often will buy the house with the tenant in there, which means you will receive rent on the property right through until the day the sale completes. This means you don’t have to give the tenant notice to be able to have an empty the property to carry out lots of viewings.

  • Make contact with us straight away. We have often stopped repossessions with less than 24 hours to go, and will do it if we need to. But the more time we have the better.

    We will contact the lender and go to court to stop the repossession to allow us the time needed to buy your home and put in place the solution needed to help you.

  • Many sellers have found that estate agents have generously valued their home just to get them on their books. You may have already found your estate agent has suggested for you to lower the price a few months down the line.

  • It’s ok. One of our Angels will help you with this. We own numerous houses and flats that we rent out around Essex. Quite often people whose homes we have bought move in to one of our properties. That way you know you are safe and you know who your landlords are!

    If we don’t have somewhere suitable we have plenty of contacts within the letting agency world that we work with regularly, so we are able to help you find somewhere to move on to.

    In the event that you are able to claim housing benefit or universal credit to help towards your new rent payment, we will also help with this.

  • We would normally terminate the services of the estate agent. We may exchange then delay the completion of the purchase to ensure that the estate agents terms and conditions are met. If you are under threat of repossession, the process of exchanging contracts is normally enough for the Court to suspend the repossession order. If needed we may also just pay your estate agents fees.

  • It very much depends on the property and what it lends itself to. Most properties we keep and then rent out. Other homes may be renovated and sold on. If we do end up doing any work on your home we always invite you to see the end result if you wish to.
