James Kendal estate agents have been fantastic from start to finish. I have been very impressed with there communication and attention to detail. Being in a group chat was really useful especially for those quick questions ( we are first time buyers). What we found great was the whole team knew the progress and at what exact point through the journey to moving we were at. Having everyone on the same page made our lives so much easier as we never had to repeat ourselves or re ask questions. Highly recommend using James Kendal estate agents! Big shoutout to all his amazing staff and team.

James Kendall were the agent for the house that we were purchasing, and we found the whole process with them smooth and easy. Chloe showed us round the house and communicated our offer etc - she was lovely, gave us some good tips and info. Other members of their team (Sandra and Matt) were also exceptionally lovely and helpful. Even though they weren’t our agent for our sale it always felt like we could contact them if needed, they were always willing to help us. Would definitely recommend them!

Both Richard & James are a breath of fresh air compared to other agents. They are passionate about what they do and the brilliant video tours really help to sell and is definitely the way forward when selling your home, as well as the wonderful video tour of the village and surrounding area (this brought a tear to my eye, lovely video with beautiful accompanying music). Other agents would send a different person around on each viewing that had never been to the property before and one didn't even know where the front door was. So glad we ditched them and went with James Kendall. They keep you up to date on everything via a group WhatsApp message. They are friendly and down to earth with a refreshing approach to selling your home. Highly recommended! Thanks to Richard, James and Sandra 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🌟🌟🌟

I have dealt with a few estate agents over the years, and have never really been 100% happy. So to have found James and his team who have made the selling of my parents house such an easy professional experience made the whole thing more bearable. All the staff especially Chloe and Sandra were a delight to deal with, nothing was ever any bother and response to anything was immediate, which I have to say these days is so refreshing. I think the group WhatsApp was so beneficial and we were all kept in the loop at all times.
Whatever your needs selling or buying, I really wouldn’t bother with anyone else, I fully recommend James Kendall as an excellent estate agent.

Professional and really helpful right from the start, James Kendall showed our house in the best possible light and attracted serious buyers. The ongoing support all the way through to contract exchange and completion by Sandra was phenomenal! Without her help we would have been lost - she made the typically most stressful time much easier to cope with as she was the determined link between us, our Solicitors and our buyers. Would thoroughly recommend James Kendall and his fabulous team, thank you Chloe and Matt and a huge thank you Sandra, you made our dream come true!
M. H.
James Kendall and the team are truly amazing!! From the moment we contacted them, the communication has been outstanding for a property we were looking for, and when we made a decision on our beautiful home a fabulous communication was set up between James Kendall us the buyer and the seller an amazing family felt group where all questions were answered immediately! An excellent Estate agent that we would definitely use again 😊 Just to add we love their live video tours too. Thank you all for the amazing experience with you 👍😘

Extremely satisfied with my experience with James Kendall Estate Agents from start to end. Very professional and approachable. Sandra, the case handler, has been amazing in supporting me with my house sale, going above and beyond to help in all the ways she could. Nothing was a bother. Thank you very much to all the team.

An estate agency like James Kendall Estate Agents is rare. With over a decade in and around the property industry, both myself and my partner have never come across such a knowledgeable, professional and honest agency. During one of the most difficult times in anyone's life, the whole team were well and truly there for us. Firstly, in terms of finding the best price and the best buyer for our home, with exceptional marketing and unmatched liaison. And throughout, by Sandra's absolutely outstanding work. When looking for an agent, it's hard to factor in the bumps along the way when you don't know they're coming, and Sandra navigated with energy, tenacity, and kindness throughout - a truly priceless service! James himself is the perfect leader, instilling passion and communication to everyone, and we couldn't be more grateful for the relationship built during a challenging half year. Thanks for making our garage and garden dreams come true!

James Kendall estate agents have been amazing throughout from sale to completion. They maximised the sale value with a high quality and moden listing, strategy and expertise with Chloe. They were in constant communication throughout the sale, progressing a complex chain through exchange and on to completion. Sandra was amazing and it would not of happened without her being on top of everything and everyone. We would thoroughly recommend James Kendall and are extremely pleased we went with them for our house sale. Absolutely brilliant service.
C. F.
We purchased a property through James Kendall and found Richard and Sandra to be incredibly helpful. We were impressed with the viewing experience with Richard and Sandra was brilliant throughout and especially supportive and proactive during negotiations and the completion stage. I would definitely use James Kendall to sell next time too.
J. C.
James Kendall provided a top rated service along every step of my journey. Sales to after sales agents were efficient and informative. The support they offered was second to none and I cannot thank the team enough as they worked so hard to move the sale/purchase along as quickly as possible.
100% recommend.
Special thanks to Sandra.
D. W.
From beginning to end and even aftercare the team at James Kendall have been nothing but amazing, any question day or night the guys are quick to respond and would always go the extra mile. James Kendall’s listing of our property was perfectly done with the photos, online YouTube tour and even a digital viewing online which saw our house sold within a week! They went the extra mile to help secure our new home and even helped to get us moved in within 4 months! Can’t recommend the team at James Kendall enough! Thank you all!
W. R.
After being let down by another estate agent we chose James Kendall for several reasons: a) they do not tie you into a contract so you can leave whenever you wish without penalty if you are unhappy (never needed to though!) b) Reviews were incredibly favourable c) Sales videos, especially by Richard, were superior to any other estate agent we researched d) they use WhatsApp for communication to make it easier (vital when buying/selling a house). From the moment Richard came round for the initial discussion until the end of the sale process, James Kendall were as good as the other reviews stated, if not better. We had 3 offers for our house within a week of going on the market (the previous estate agent managed no viewings at all in 2.5 months!), the quality of the sales video that Richard presented was fantastic and, perhaps the most important thing, communication, usually via WhatsApp, was excellent (big shoutout to Sandra and Chloe). Having endured the pain of one estate agent and then experienced James Kendall's professionalism, I wholeheartedly recommend James Kendall if you are considering buying or selling your property.
Z. P.
James Kendall were so helpful and exactly what I needed when purchasing my first property. Communication was brilliant and they always responded so quickly. Matthew in particular was great in providing all the information I needed, happy to answer any questions I had and helped me to get exactly what I was hoping for my first home. Would highly recommend.
P. A.
I can’t thank James Kendall and his team enough, particularly Chloe and Sandra for their hard work and dedication to the recent sale of my existing property and purchase of my new home. This was my first move in almost 30 years and to say I was a tad daunted and nervous by the whole process would have been an understatement but I needn’t have been as both Chloe and Sandra were amazing, they were there every step of the way, guiding me through the process and providing regular updates.They were always on hand to answer any questions I had and their responses were always very quick, concise and crystal clear. From start to finish the communication and support I received was outstanding, going above and beyond what was expected. A warm, friendly and professional company, putting customers first. If you’re considering moving or purchasing a property, look no further, you’ll not be disappointed.
F. G.
Seamless experience from start to finish. Extreme attention to detail and great communication throughout the whole process. Felt like a personal service and you can really tell they care about their clients. Would highly recommend buying a property with James Kendall.
T. D.
Initally we chose James Kendall because of their very up-to-date and modern attitude to selling houses.
Video tours, virtual tours, even a whatsapp group to keep everyone in the loop throughout the whole ordeal.
Matt was the one who sold our house, he done a great job. Listened to our opinions whilst also discussing his own plans he had for selling our property.
Once it had sold, Sandra took over - her efforts really made the move 10x easier.
We ended up finding a property that JK were selling so we were buying and selling with JK.
Me and Sandra had many phonecalls discussing the usual hiccups you face when moving and she was always accommodating and enthusiastic. Even on her days off!
We would definitely recommend James Kendall.
C. M.
The entire team at James Kendall really made selling our house an enjoyable experience. We needed to get our house on the market quickly in order to secure our dream home, Matt came round to value our house and straight away put us at ease and most importantly spoke about doing what was right for us, not what was right for them or trying to talk other estate agents down.
Within two days they had created a high quality video, 3D tour and professional photos. Within 24 hours we had viewings booked in and had sold the following day.
As soon as we went with James Kendall they set up a WhatsApp group to keep us informed every step of the way. It's such a simple thing but it really made a difference. No question we raised was too silly, and they always responded quickly and promptly and with good humour too!
Sandra worked incredibly hard on our behalf to chase the solicitors and keep us updated on the chain.
All in all we couldn't fault the service we received from James and the team. If you are thinking of selling your home, do not hesitate to go with James Kendall.
M. H.
The team at James Kendall were so helpful with an otherwise long and tough buy/sell chain. Kept us fully updated and went above and beyond with their service and can’t recommend Matt and Sandra (and of course their colleagues) enough. In a time where customer service is generally falling, they really are keeping their standards high
J. D.
I have found my wife’s dream property through James Kendall. Richard and Sandra have been wonderful from the beginning. I now can’t wait to get moved in. So impressed with their professionalism and empathy to my wife’s situation. Cannot thank them enough.
N. L.
Excellent service from start to finish! Chloe & Sandra were very helpful along the way & did a lot of extra work to help everything move forwards where the solicitors weren’t pulling their weight! Very friendly team with clear & easy communication. Thank you!
L. C.
James Kendall and his team have been so amazing throughout the sale of my house. Their client communication and support is second to none.
We unfortunately lost a couple buyers due to covid issues however the team were always so positive and got straight back on marketing and we obtained a new buyer almost straight away. James really knows his stuff and his team are passionate about what they do which makes you feel really cared for. I would 1000% recommend James and his team to anyone who is buying or selling a home - you will not regret it. We can’t thank you enough.
C. L.
James Kendal estate agents team were great from start of our purchase to the end Very helpful and quick to respond to any queries or questions. Friendly and smiley☺️
J. G.
We had planned to sell our house early in 2020. Following lockdown lifting, we originally marketed with a different estate agent. It was an incredibly difficult time with little interest and we lost confidence in being able to sell our home and take advantage of the stamp duty savings. We also missed out on the original property we wanted to buy.
The experience with James and Matt was a breath of fresh air. They immediately provided honesty, transparency and created superb photographs, video and 3D scan of the house. Within 3 days we’d had more viewings booked than we’d had in 4 months and we had 2 offers within the week, one of which we accepted. Matt and Sandra kept in direct contact with us throughout the process up until completion.
We chose to use the onward negotiation package, which proved to be extremely valuable. We had one purchase in mind that was overpriced and James guided us in reconsidering what may have been a poor investment. With James’ help we found a more suitable property and he closed the negotiations for us on the day, saving us a reasonable amount of money on the asking price.
Moving home is no doubt stressful, but in interacting with James and team we had full transparency on our sale at all times. We would 100% recommend the first point of call for anyone selling in Bedford would be James Kendall.
K. A.
Excellent service given by Chole and the team. Chole kept us up to date throughout the sale up to completion. Questions asked were responded to by return. Highly recommended to any future sellers or buyer's.
G. R.
We can't rate James Kendall Estate Agents highly enough. A very unusual, personal, situation did occur at one point during our sale but James was extremely helpful and we gained great confidence in him. Sandra has been an absolute Trojan in the office and is extremely diligent, competent and helpful in her role. It has been a pleasure dealing with this Estate Agent and my husband and I can recommend using them without any hesitation at all. The next time we move, James Kendall Estate Agents will be the first people we contact.
I. M.
Nothing is to much for this company who helped us resolved one of the most traumatic completions so we could move it. Their tieless chasing and poking of solicitors, etc up and down the chain was the only thing that got us in. Thank you Sandra.
C. R.
Excellent service. Our house was on the market just as we were about to go on holiday. They handled all the viewings and kept us completely up to date with what was happening. House sold in a week. Had a change of contact shortly after sale, but new contact, Sandra, was excellent. She kept us informed every step of the way up to exchange and completion. Always returned calls and was wonderful at “chasing” solicitors and sellers of the property we were buying to get things moving. On completion day she was always available to speak to. Highly recommend James Kendall , and Sandra. Thanks to her, the sale and move were as stress free as moving house can be.
S. L.
We cannot thank James and his team enough. The service was fantastic and each member of the team we had contact with went above and beyond to help us with our move. Matthew communicated with us throughout and made the selling process as easy as possible for us. He kept us constantly informed at all times and was always on hand to offer advice to help us get a sale. After selling our property, James, Matthew and Sandra were all on hand to help and guide us through the process of moving. Sandra supported us with communicating with other agents and solicitors in the chain to make the process as easy as possible. The communication from the team was fantastic and we are truly grateful for everything. We would definitely recommend James Kendall estate agents! Nicola & Simon
K. R.
The team at James Kendall were always available to answer any questions which was a great comfort as a first time buyer, and anytime there was a concern they always had a suggestion or plan of action to remove it.
L. J.
James Kendall were excellent; we purchased our new home through them this year. We primarily dealt with Sandra - who was outstanding in every single way and we can’t fault our experience with them. Sandra was continually on the ball, communicated regularly, so kind and friendly to deal with, and - as far as your typical (sometimes confusing and mildly stressful) home buy/sell process goes - this was as smooth as possible, thanks to Sandra and the rest of the team there at James Kendall. Overall, 10/10 and so grateful we had a great estate agent to liaise with!
K. S.
Cannot recommend James Kendall enough! Chloe Edward’s in particular has been utterly fantastic through the sale of my property. All the team are knowledgeable, friendly and genuinely care about their clients, a breath of fresh air!
Such a smooth stress free experience from start to finish. Thank you all and thank you Chloe for all your help. Superb team you have James! Well done
A. A.
James Kendall are absolutely the BEST estate agents around. Richard was incredible, somehow pulling off what seemed impossible and finding us the PERFECT house (in the one and only village we said we’d move to which made the search quite tricky!) and selling ours within a couple of days! And we also can’t thank the amazing Sandra enough, who managed the whole chain through such challenges and bumps seamlessly, she was so kind and worked like an absolute trooper to get it all through for us. We’ve recommended them to everyone we know, they are all incredible! We can’t thank them enough.
J. R.
Fantastic service provided by James and his team. They were very professional, accompanied all viewings, acted in Covid Secure way and made sure we had regular feedback. They did a great job of securing us an excellent buyer and price. Sandra was outstanding in the support between offer and contract exchange and went above and beyond to support. Would thoroughly recommend
M. M.
Funny how things work out!! thanks to Matt who let us view this house despite the owners saying they only wanted to show people who were ready to buy. One impulse viewing and we put in an offer and now have it!!
Sandra was frequently on us to see how the sale was progressing. Originally I thought she only was representing and looking after the seller but soon realised she had our interest at heart as well.
She really looked after us due to the stressful time that comes with selling in a chain.
Sandra was like glue with the different solicitors and constantly hounded them to ensure things moved as fast as possible. A friendly warm person but with a personality and determination like steel!!
Thanks for everything.
R. J.
We chose James Kendall Estate Agents because we liked their professional videos. The marketing and viewings were managed very well. And Sandra, the Sales Progresser, was tenacious and instrumental in the whole chain completing. We highly recommend James Kendall Estate Agents.
D. R.
All the way from arranging the viewing to collecting the keys, it was a pleasure to work along side James Kendall. The Sales team made the house buying process so smooth, we were also kept updated throughout. I would recommend to Friends & family.
D. H.
The house we were purchasing was being sold by James Kendall Estate Agents.
The tour was very professional and helpful.
The team went above and beyond to keep the chain progressing. Communication is very responsive and Sandra was very quick to respond to any queries.
M. W.
We bought through James Kendall Estate Agents and have been very impressed with the communication we have received throughout the whole process. Always very helpful and quick to respond to any queries. Would definitely recommend and wish we had used them to sell our property
P. G.
James came to us with a very different sales process to other estate agents - he used an awesome set of photos, videos, 3D tour and copy to engage with prospective buyers online and vet a queue of the best candidates in advance of viewing. This avoided time-wasters and gained a set of strong offers from just one day of back-to-back viewings. The process was very simple and James and his colleagues were always enormously approachable and helpful in guiding us through. It seemed like he was also trusted by the buyers. We would have no hesitation in using them again.
A. E.
The team at James Kendall really changed my perception of estate agents; no cheesy sales pitch, no hidden costs at the last minute, no radio silence when things got manic - they're a breath of fresh air in a world where good customer service is so often overlooked.
The listing process of our home was straightforward and the photos looked very professional - viewings were arranged and managed seamlessly by James & Matt.
Once we agreed a sale and the wheels were in motion, Sandra was absolutely fantastic throughout the entire process through to completion - She kept us well informed at every step and always considered our position whilst trying to keep things moving, especially when we experienced delays and were very nervous - a credit to the company!
Having also sold another property with James prior to the most recent sale, I can confirm this was equally as smooth and seamless - this sale was a emotional one as followed a close family member's passing and I was very grateful for James and team's sensitive approach throughout the process.
Overall I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending James Kendall Estate Agents and cannot commend their customer service, market knowledge and professionalism enough.
Top job - thanks again!
S. M.
After a not so great experience with another agent we came across JKEA and we are gutted we didn’t find them sooner!
James, Matt and the team offer a professional, friendly service with realistic valuations and goals. They reassured us and kept us up to date at every stage.
The communication from start to finish was excellent, they was always someone available at the end of the phone. They were quick to answer any questions and sold our house within a couple of weeks!
Thank you so much guys!
K. M.
Tim from James Kendall took the effort out of our hands: he understood the local value of properties and set a realistic and achievable selling price - neither under nor over valued; he also did the showing around and the negotiation with the buyers. We were impressed with his detailed explication of the selling process, and his suggestions about small details that could be changed in order to stage the house effectively to make the best impression. Kendalls also offered the best photographic package of the four estate agents we considered - including an interactive video tour of the house which really helped market the property.
Sandra (in the office) kept us abreast of the progress of the sale in a friendly and efficient manner.
James Kendall were pricier than the competitors we considered, but definitely worth it.
K. f.
My partner and I are looking for our first house to purchase together in Bedford. We found a property with James Kendall, and although we ended up putting an offer in for another house with a different agent, we wished that the house was with James Kendall! By far Chloe, who showed us around the property, is the best agent we have worked with. Very professional, but not so much so that she was cold, instead she was very personable and friendly. She gave us a lot of her time and didn't make us feel rushed when viewing the property even though she had a full day of viewings before and after us! She was very knowledgeable and any question we asked she ensured she had an answer. She was very informative as to the competition we would be facing with the property and gave great advise as to how we could evidence that we were attractive buyers. She even followed up on the Monday as we had not yet contacted her to let us know that other offers had come in so we would not miss out on putting ours in. Had we not fallen in love with another property we certainly would have, which she was very understanding about and was nice enough to wish us well! Thanks again, Sam and Karen.
A. H.
The team were a very helpful and organised team to work with. As first time buyers they offered great assistance and support through the process. The setting up of a Whatsapp group for any and all questions was very good to keep in touch throughout the process.
Special mention to Sandra, who was very friendly and prompt during a time where the house market was moving quickly.
We would definitely recommend James Kendall, and if the times comes to sell the house, will definitely look to work with James Kendall again.
t. n.
Supported by Sandra and the office team, Richard and James were hugely attentive and engaged through out our sales process - from initial marketing phase to tidying up loose ends on exchange and completion. I would very much recommend the team at James Kendall to manage the sale of your home.
N. M.
We recently purchased through James Kendall and had a great experience with Richard. He was responsive, supportive and we felt he was genuinely interested in us as buyers. He has enabled us to find our dream forever home and the team have been a pleasure to interact with throughout the whole process.
R. F.
James Kendall has a good record locally in our village. They were noted for getting results quickly. However, I felt they did not have much experience in more expensive properties, so we briefed 3 estate agents and they were the last of the 3 to pitch their services. Despite being a little sceptical of their capability before the pitch, they completely won us over. They had done more preparation, better understood the house and its merits and were orders of magnitude better informed on the role of social media and the internet. They prepared an excellent video that got 28,000 hits within a week. They managed the whole process very smoothly and sold our house for a little over the asking price within a couple of weeks. They kept us well informed throughout the transaction, that led to a worry-free sale. We cannot recommend them highly enough.
J. P. S. C.
We recently sold our property through James Kendall State Agency and, after the experience, I would definitively recommend James Kendall as State Agency.
The process of advertising the house was done with a minimum of disruption for us and the photos, 3D images and video showed our ex-home on the best of lights.
Showing the house to buyers was also done without much disruption. All visits were done on a Saturday and it was easy to plan in advance to be out of the way for the day.
Matthew Bandy and James Kendall kept us informed during the process and were always available to discuss any doubt we may have had.
S. R.
My house had been on the market for six months with no offers. I contacted James Kendall Estate Agents and they gave me some honest not-really-what-I-wanted-to-hear advice. I did what they suggested, then let them at it. The agreements were all electronic so there was no need for paperwork. My house sold after just one day filled with viewings. I only needed to leave the house once, and I'd got more than the asking price!
Once we had the offer, JKES set up a WhatsApp group with all the key people involved in my sale (a highly skilled admin, the big boss, my charismatic agent, the photographer, the videographer, all sorts of people I never met) so that I was instantly informed of progress at all times. When I contacted my solicitor to arrange the sale of some household items (oven, lawnmower, etc.) I got nowhere for weeks. I tried the JKES WhatsApp group instead and had an agreement from the buyers within half a day.
Once the buyers' survey results came in, showing some issues with my house, JKES were helpful, courteous, and professional. They were able to negotiate with me and with the buyers to quickly reach an agreement. I really couldn't fault the service I received. I've bought & sold quite a few houses over the years and this has been my favourite by far. Very impressive, and highly recommended.
L. K.
Brilliant Estate Agents! James and Matthew were just fantastic from start to finish with the sale of our property. We both work full time so having a WhatsApp group to arrange viewings and share updates made things so much easier than phone calls.
Whenever we had queries both Matt and James were brilliant and so responsive. They also helped with chasing solicitors and keeping the chain together. We are so pleased that we used James Kendall to sell our home. You might find cheaper but you wont find better, highly recommend.
Z. K.
An outstanding service from start to finish. We were daunted by the whole process as this was the first time we were selling property, but James took the time to advise and support us throughout. No pressure was applied (which we had experienced from other potential agents) and the service was personal - we didn't feel like another house on the conveyor belt! Advertising and marketing was of a high quality and along with the intelligent use of social media, we were able to sell our property within three weeks. Communication with both James and Matt was excellent from start to completion. We will definitely be using James Kendall Estate Agents in the future and highly recommend to anyone else.
N. W.
We recently used James Kendall to sale our house. Our estate agent Richard and the rest of the team were great from start to finish. Our house sold quickly and the whole process was easy and stress free. Great communication throughout. Highly recommended!
F. M.
We sold our house in Bozeat through James Kendall and I couldn't speak more highly of them.
Richard assisted with advice, pricing and securing a sale which happened within a matter of weeks from listing (may have even been sooner!!). Every time we spoke or met he was extremely knowledgeable, caring and easy to work with.
Sandra handled our sale from the point of sale through to completion and to put it lightly, it was a nightmare experience due to our solicitors! If it wasn't for Sandra, I'm sure we would have lost the sale.
Sandra was informative, understanding and persistent in helping us through and I honestly felt like she was a friend by the end of the process.
All I can say is thank you to everyone on the team - an excellent service and a business I would 100% recommend to anyone requiring an Estate Agent in the area.
C. G.
Brilliant service. Richard sold our house very quickly, Sandra is the office was fantastic and kept us up to date every step of the way. If you are planning to sell your house, use James Kendall. They really do look after you.
S. H.
Excellent service from start to finish. Good solid advice with various situations. All the staff are very professional and friendly. The group WhatsApp is very useful. Would not hesitate to recommend.

Moving house is stressful but not with James Kendall estate agents.
Brilliant , knowledgeable, realistic, friendly and get the job done. We had a wonderful experience from beginning to end, this company do everything an agent should and more, they have great relationships with everyone. agents, solicitors and surveyors.. I would recommend this agent to everybody, other agents should watch and see how it should be done. Thank you James, Matt and team you made it happen!
S. M.
I can not reccomend James kendall estate agents enough, very professional and were always there to help with and questions I had and made the whole process stress free
Thank you all for your hard work
N. T.
Having not moved house for 21 years we are grateful that James Kendal were such a professional team managing our purchase. Until recently I was an Estate Agent for 23 years. JK have done the profession proud. Best wishes Nick & Sarah
L. V.
I cannot recommend this company highly enough. Their estate agent Sandra was invaluable in helping at all stages of house buying and selling - surveyors, chasing the chain, solicitors, removals etc.
She also responded immediately and honestly to queries and never left us in the dark. She had the perfect balance of professionalism and friendliness and was unfailingly cheerful, helpful and efficient in ensuring a quick and smooth process.
She went above and beyond to help. I would definitely use this company again.
L. H.
Many thanks to Richard Sandra and the rest of the team at James Kendall Estate Agents. Moving house is not easy particularly in a Global Pandemic but their professionalism, tenacity and unwavering optimism is what has got us through. It has been a pleasure to work with them and the occasional light hearted banter has helped ease the stress. Would highly recommend.
K. G.
We sold our property through James Kendall throughout summer 2020 to spring 2021.
Throughout the whole process we had no complaints. James came over and discussed our potential sale, what to expects, fees, the process and the team. As soon as we decided to go with James Kendall, a WhatsApp group was set up which was the BEST idea I think an estate agent has come up with. It was so easy to be in a group with everyone to discuss viewings, times, feedback etc all in one place, especially if we weren't available at work to take calls or if we had bad signal. Having the WhatsApp group was by far the beat and most efficient thing ever.
Matthew always gave us feedback after viewings and was always available to answer questions on viewings or offers etc. And Sandra is brilliant. Towards the end during exchange was a stressful time and Sandra was brilliant and so efficient at helping us with questions, help move things along and kept us up to date always. The team were fantastic.
Throughout the whole process of viewing, offers, and the sale right up to completion day, James and the team kept us fully updated, whether that was via WhatsApp or calls when we could take them.
They were all extremely friendly and professional and made the whole process a breeze. We would definitely recommend and would use again! 👍
Thanks guys!
M. H.
I recently sold my late fathers house, James kendall estate agents provided a first class service. I would not hesitate in recommending them to anybody. Being such a difficult time, they kept me in the loop constantly, I never had to chase the sale of the property, and they went above and beyond to achieve the sale price that I wanted.
James and his staff were extremely professional. Overall a fantastic service
V. G.
Fantastic service from James and his team, who went over and above to secure our sale/purchase and communicated at every step of the way. They have been quick to respond to queries and offer what feels like a bespoke service. Would highly recommend

We instructed James Kendall late November 2020 to sell our home. James and Matt were highly professional from the start (all the necessary Covid rules were followed). Superb video and photographic images attracted a lot of interest right away and we had two offers from the outset. The whole process with JK was very smooth.
As we neared Exchange and Completion, Sandra was like a trojan, pulling all the strings together, chasing solicitors and communicating with buyers/sellers!
I would certainly recommend James Kendall if you are considering selling your home!

Fantastic service from start to finish. All the staff at James Kendall were friendly, professional and efficient. James was fantastic in making sure the photos of our house showed it at its best. We were kept up to date with clear communication every step of the way. A great company.
J. M.
The WhatsApp group set up at the beginning of our dealings with James Kendal was amazing, it enabled everyone to keep up to date with what was happening and any queries asked were answered very promptly. We experienced problems with our conveyancer during our house move and Sandra Bloch was instrumental at resolving the issues so that we could progress to exchange and completion….she is an asset to the company.
S. J.
The team at James Kendall where totally on the ball. They where calling with in an hour of me posting interest. From there it only got better. Beautifull images of our home. Honest advise and we had sold within a few days of our first open house. They even
helped recommended good reliable solicitors. Also I would take the virtual tour option. It was great. Thanks guys. Sam n Les

We have had a great experience with James Kendall estate agents. Especially Matt who has been with us every step of the way. We have never felt pressured and Matt has always been quick to respond to any query we had (which is a lot as first time buyers!). Would be happy to use them again for moving in the future. Thank you very much!
P. B.
Quite simply modern day professionals with an exceptional 5* plus service. A faultless, personable and first class approach compared to other local agents that we have used in the past.
We interacted with every member of the team at James Kendall, and were confident that each member of staff had the drive, enthusiasm and knowledge to sell our house. They quickly got to know us and marketed our property superbly in our opinion, they clearly took the time to get to know everything about our property and we felt like we were listened too throughout.
Excellent communication and always on hand to answer any queries we had, and what was good is that we would always have honest feedback provided to us. House moves can be tricky and stressful, and we felt the team at James Kendall did their upmost to take away those stresses and did their absolute best to sell our property, nothing seemed too much trouble for them. Even throughout some minor setbacks out of their control, they stepped up to the plate and still provided the great service we have now come to know from them.
We have confidently already recommended James Kendall Estate Agents to family, friends and colleagues alike, all of which have had similar positive experiences. We cannot thank James and the team enough for the service they have provided throughout the process, from day one they have shown that a 5* review is well deserved.

We used James Kendall Estate Agents to sell out house and also bought a house through them at the same time. I cant speak highly enough of James, Matt, Richard and the rest of the team who were brilliant from the start of the process right through to the protracted end.
From the initial quote and subsequent listing everything was covid secure and done to the highest standard. If you can, use the 3d house walk through, it's amazing and definitely helped us when searching for our new home.
In a world where most estate agents are not the sort of people you'd like to spend more than 5 mins with normally, it was really refreshing to meet James and his team, showing that you can both sell houses and be nice people too
I would thoroughly recommend these guys to anyone and will use again if ever required
O. P.
Using James Kendall for our house sale was the perfect choice. Extremely professional service and always on the ball. James and Matthew were always happy to help and go above and beyond to be as useful as possible.
Not only were the photos that were taken excellent, showing the house off to it's best; the 3D Scan/Model walkthrough was a great marketing tool, allowing people to look round and get a feel for the space ahead of a physical viewing, really useful in these difficult times.
We highly recommend the team and will be using them in the future, no doubt! Thank you.
e. a.
I highly recommend Matt at James Kendall.
He has been extremely helpful and professional throughout our house purchase and nothing was to much trouble.
Sandra from the office has also been brilliant.
A lovely team of people to make the house look move as easy as possible.
C. H.
We are buyers of one of James Kendall’s for sale properties. Usually its odd to leave a review as we did not pay for the service, but we felt it was important that others should know.
Before this tortuous sale - which took 7 months following several drop outs and threats from buyers to pull out - we have finally exchanged. This experience has left us realising the value of an excellent estate agent and we only wish we had sold with James Kendall ourselves.
They prevented our sale from collapsing on more than one occasion, and did not just limit themselves to accommodate the needs of their seller, the move would simply not have happened without them.
We used purple bricks and the sale aspect was mostly fine, but we had issues up and down the chain from day one. Purple bricks were a string of unanswered calls and silence, while Sandra (James Kendall’s shrewd, affable and experienced Sales Advisor) was constantly checking every part of the chain while heading off or alerting us to problems.
We often got calls from Sandra before our own estate agent or solicitors when issues came up, they were always on it, answering phones constantly, acting with urgency but courtesy, helping us directly pressure and compel our own ambeling solicitors. They negotiated and advised us on negotiations with our buyers several times (even though this was purple bricks role - we could not get hold of them at various and critical times).
When we could get hold of purple bricks, the advice often favoured a quick sale and to speed things up so it was over quicker for them (because we paid up front and less overall, their incentive had gone) they would often advise we took lower offers and we would need to push for them to go back and regonotiate. They even managed to give my private email address directly to our buyers on accident following a tense negotiation. Something they still haven't apologised for.
Simply put, there is a reason why traditional estate agents like James Kendall are doing well in a world of low cost line estate agents, and that's because they are outstanding, knowledgeable, avaliable, effective and comprehensive - none of which we got with purple bricks.
We regret going with purple bricks despite the saving, and without James Kendall and the almost superhuman like efforts of Sandra, we honestly would never have moved. As it happens, we are now packing and looking forward to being in our new home next week.
Thank you Sandra, James and the rest of the team too. We are forever grateful for your help.

We received a great service from James Kendall, Matthew and the team!
We had plenty of viewings and they were always prompt at keeping us up to date with everything that was happening. They helped us get a great price for our house and offered invaluable advice in a friendly and professional manner. Would definitely recommend!
E. R.
Well what can I say? From the get go, you know you are not with the stereotypical estate agent. Warm friendly associates but not patronising, realistic valuations to achieve the best possible Price for your property, great true to life pictures and such great promoted advertising of your home. Especially during the pandemic they made viewings safe and convenient for all . Regular contact with us with clear updates and advice. Once, Promptly sold and offer accepted they were on the case throughout the sale process with our solicitor and all of the chain. Regular updates given and any question we had weren't too much, right down to exchange day where their contact was invaluable.
I can honestly, recommend james Kendall Estate agents. 100% and will only ever recommend them to others and use them in the future. 👍
J. E.
I have recently sold my house through James Kendall Estate Agents and I couldn't have made a better choice of agents. My sale wasn't without it's complications, but everything was handled absolutely professionally and the customer service I received was second to none. The staff at James Kendall took so much stress out of the whole process as they were so reliable and always at the end of the phone to deal with any query, however small. Also they offered me a lot of advice which I always found to be spot on. If you are about to sell your property, look no further than James Kendall Estate Agents! It was the best choice I could have made during what is always a stressful time.
K. B.
James visited our home last week, had a thorough look around each room and commented on how homely it felt when he came in the front door.
I would recommend James Kendall Estate Agents as having pride in what they do. Good quality Professional team.
V. V.
" East or West James Kendall estate agent is the best"
James and his team has helped me sell my existing property and also find my dream house. Very helpful, kind and understanding. Very hard working. They are so good at their Job and deliver what they promise. The process has been so smooth, effortless although all the efforts are taken by the whole team to give me 100% satisfaction. Me and my family are very thankful to James Kendall Estate agent for helping us out and being so nice. I would 100% recommend this team for buying or selling their property.
Good luck to James and his team for future ventures.
K. R.
James Kendall helped us sell and purchase our new property. The work they did to create the sales brochure and accompanying virtual tours etc was first class and I’d recommend them to anyone looking to sell or buy in the area
R. D.
Tim was our Estate Agent & was brilliant from the start. We knew straight away, that we wanted to sell our property through James Kendall EA. Tim was
Caring, when our original buyer pulled out, he made
Sure our house was re-marketed as soon as possible & we sold again really quickly.
The rest of the JKEA team are also fab. Would definitely recommend James Kendall EA to anyone looking to sell. Thank you
M. P.
We've recently moved to Bedford (first time buyers), both Sandra, Matthew, and the team were exceptionally helpful and reassuring (and patient!) throughout the entire process start to finish. Always able to pick up the phone and answer any questions (big or small) and absolutely put our minds at ease. Very grateful for the service, especially as first time buyers.
Would absolutely recommend to any buyers, first time or otherwise.
R. P.
We have so much praise to give James Kendall !!!
They have worked so hard as and as a result we are moving within 3 months of viewing a property whilst selling our own home.
Thanks to the private WhatsApp group it is so easy to communicate and someone is always on hand to respond to any questions
They consistently remained in communication with all relevant parties so you always felt like that they had your back.
They are all a friendly, patient, helpful and professional group and I am forever recommending them to friends.
Many thanks James Kendall !!!
J. L.
We were looking to buy in the area and, based upon a very strong video tour, booked a viewing with Richard Bray of James Kendall in November 2020. Richard responded promptly and professionally to all our queries pre-viewing. He was at the property on time and welcomed us when we arrived. He was knowledgeable about the property and was able to answer all of our queries. He gave us the time to investigate the property fully and we never felt rushed or pressured. We felt that he listened to us and appreciated us as buyers. I would thoroughly recommend Richard to sell your home. He is a star! Thank you Richard.
R. P.
If you are looking for an estate agent in the Bedfordshire area I cannot recommend these guys highly enough. We recently sold our home whilst being stuck half way around the world and they have been excellent. What I have admired most is that they are genuine, honest, professional and supportive throughout the whole process. If we every plan to buy or sell again in the future we would choose them again without any hesitation. Thanks again Matthew and James.
G. H.
Sold my house with James Kendall Estate Agents and I could not of been any happier with this decision as the whole process is done with 100% care, effort & dedication to the seller by the whole team. Firstly with James himself turning up to assess the house, giving good feedback to us as to how to dress the house up for sale, which genuinely make a difference to any sale. The 360° interactive virtual tour is brilliant, viewing house without actually going out is brilliant in this day and age especially with regards to his photography and social media marketing which gained us huge interest. From hearing our house was officially on the market we had interest within the first hour! Brilliant! And it didn't stop there phone calls and viewings came in regularly and so did the offers, which again I feel is good for the market being on a guide price rather then an over inflated price where all that happens is you keep getting knocked down in price, but with a guide price they kept coming in higher and higher. I have started to see other
agents use form of pricing, this is obviously a winning formula for the seller to maximize a potential profit. You're always in the know, we were on holiday when we agreed our amazing offer and that's when the team stepped up again to get the deal complete, the amount of work they do behind the scenes is applaudable, our buyer was in a different country and the work they put in from talking to everyone involved, to us, the solicitor, and buyer to get this deal done was top notch. It's our first time selling and you hear horror stories and house being sold with multiple agents and that for us is probably because the other agents don't work hard enough and for the buyer which James Kendall Estate Agents certainly does.
Would just like to thank the team and James himself on making this so easy for us and getting us the best deal possible! Thankyou
N. H.
James Kendall the Estate Agent and his Team were AMAZING!
They stayed on track and they did everything that they promised.
D. E.
Chloe was extremely helpful and informative, even though she wasn’t our agent she reached out and kept us informed about the large chain.
A. I.
I have recently purchased a property through James Kendall Estate Agents, I would like to thanks James, Matthew and Matt for arranging the viewings, and support during the sales and contract exchange process, - all were done so swiftly than expected. James and team are extremely professional and approachable, I would definitely recommend James to my contacts - they are a great team!
D. B.
As a developer its been great to work with an estate agent that is well connected and embraces technology to deliver my product to market. I found the staff to be professional and charming with my prospective buyers its been an absolute pleasure working with these guys. I found their professionalism was a good fit with my high quality product
K. F.
As first-time buyers, we can 100% recommend James Kendall Estate Agents. Their Sales Progressor Sandra was extremely friendly and helpful and even though we had a few complications she made sure that we were well informed and positive. All in all, we received a very professional and responsive service from start to finish!
S. D.
Tim was excellent and highly professional. We do not live locally and a house sale from a distance was never going to be easy. Then there was COVID-19 and the lockdown which meant we could not visit. Tim put a great deal of effort into our house sale, checking the vacant property, arranging access when it was required, securing some items, and communicating regularly with us when some of the other professionals weren’t. We chose James Kendall as our estate agent based largely on first impressions created by Tim; we were not disappointed. Wholeheartedly recommended.
J. M.
Had the pleasure of going through James Kendall for my property purchase. Very responsive and all in all a seamless process from viewing, bidding and completion aside from a lengthy probate! But credit to Sandra, she was always very helpful chasing the different parties for me and doing what she said she would. Very professional and huge thanks!
M. D.
We have recently sold our home with James Kendall. After meeting with several different estate agents in the area. It was very clear to us we wanted to choose James Kendall. In a competitive environment it isn’t always about costs. For us we had a gut feeling JK was The right choice. Right from beginning meeting with Matt he made us feel comfortable and happy with the whole process. JK do an amazing video and mapping of your home. This 100% created all of the interest! And we received several offers within same day! I have zero hesitation to whole heartedly recommend JK and the whole team (special thanks to Matt and Sandra)
r.
I recently sold my house through James Kendall Estate Agents’ Bedford branch. Matt and Nathaniel (agents) did an excellent job advertising the property, and it only took a just over a month to agree a sale - and slightly over the asking price.
Nathaniel kept me well informed and did a great job keeping the ball rolling once the solicitors got involved.
I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again - something you don’t hear much these days when it comes to Estate agents!
t. w.
I have been eager to write this review as it’s so rare to be on the receiving end of such superior service and professionalism.
Before Christmas we decided to ‘test the water’ and market our home. I did my due diligence and sought valuations from four reputable agents from Olney to Bedford. I happened across James Kendall as I had noticed a surge in their SOLD signs in my local area. In honesty, they were unknown to me so they were going to be for comparison purposes only and were the last to appraise our home.
When Richard arrived I had an instant rapport with him. He was enthusiastic and complimentary about our property, his energy was infectious. Richard was unfazed that the property was a self build project under taken by us ten years ago and as such had no sales history. He exuded confidence and knowledge of the local market and the portfolio for his marketing campaign was second to none. He was the only agent able to instruct (within a matter of days not weeks like the rest) his own in-house professional photographer and videographer to produce truly stunning photos and the Matterport scan. At the same appointment Richard recorded a detailed and informative ‘walk through’ tour. Having all these services performed on the same day was invaluable as it limited the disruption to us as a family all working from home currently.
To give an indication of timescales, Richard appraised our property on Tuesday afternoon, Thursday, all the photos, scans and tours were recorded. Draft details were received and approved by us Thursday evening and that same evening we were live on Rightmove and across all James Kendall’s social platforms.
That’s right three DAYS not weeks, now that’s a motivated agent plus their fees were the most competitive too!
The response was staggering.
Richard accompanied all seven of our viewings back to back on Saturday. By Monday we had four second viewings booked (again Richard accompanied these) ending with three offers. Richard’s calm and knowledgeable advice helped us secure the best buyer and price.
Throughout the conveyancing process Richard, James and the team were on hand with advice or chasing where necessary to reach completion. They were pro-active and sought swift resolutions to the invariable obstacles selling/buying a property can bring. I never needed to ask for updates, they were always one step ahead of me and I felt fully informed.
From start for finish the whole process was completed in three months, throwing in Christmas and a few lockdowns for good measure!
I couldn’t recommend James Kendall Estate Agents highly enough. Their approach to marketing is modern, fast paced and client focused. The days of time consuming, long wordy booklets is over; social media is the way to go. They have a wealth of experience, state of the art approaches and professionalism to take the stress out of the selling and buying process.
Thank you again Richard and The Team.

We wouldn’t use any other agent. James, Sandra & the team are constantly on the ball and communication is second to none. Our house was sold within 3 weeks and we couldn’t recommend James Kendall Agents enough. Thank you all for your hard work.
G. T.
The service we received at James Kendall was above and beyond our expectations. Matt Bandy dealt with our property sale throughout and worked hard on our behalf, providing regular and timely feedback and was entirely dependable, but every member of staff we dealt with was courteous, informed and diligent. It is refreshing to see a young business adhering to old fashioned values of offering great customer service. We would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending or indeed using James Kendall Estate Agents again in the future.
I. S.
I had three estate agents come to value my home; James Kendall and in particular Tim Anderson, were the easiest decision I could make in going with them. Tim demonstrated a high level of professionalism, had a strong understanding of the market, especially the area of my home, and clearly set out my expectations of the whole buying and selling process.
Tim arrived within 24 hours of me contacting him, revisited the following day to take 360 degree walkthrough photographs. These are fantastic, they fully document each and every room in high detail. The property was listed and we had two viewings within a few days of listing and sold within one week.
Tim provided ongoing support and communication throughout the entire process and provided help and advice for the purchase of our new property.
I have no hesitation in recommending James Kendall - especially Tim Anderson.
C. A.
After originally purchasing our house through James Kendall, we have just sold it (6years later) through him too.
A top notch, outstanding service. Fantastic pictures, eye catching yet not overselling prior to viewing. Advice and communication thorough and to the point throughout! Had an offer witching 5 days of going on the market. Would recommend in a heartbeat!
A. G.
Our sale has recently completed with James Kendall Estate Agents and I have been really impressed with the level of service. From the beginning when we met Michael, everything that was suggested in terms of sales process has worked. The 3D walk through is a great idea and the managed sales process provided us with a lot of confidence. I have no hesitation in recommending James Kendall estate agents
K.
Highly recommend Tim Anderson from James Kendall Estate Agents. As a developer I have used a number of estate agents over the years, Tim has been the best. He is very responsive, friendly, professional and proactive. He has ensured the whole process went smoothly, from getting high quality photos and marketing the property to arranging viewings and chasing solicitors to get to that all important completion, Tim has been wonderful.
B.
We bought out house with James Kendall three years ago (back before he had an office!). He was by far the best estate agent we used. Polite, professional and always replied to messages and emails promptly and politely.
Not overbearing or trying to push us into something we weren't interested in - very supportive throughout the whole process. Trustworthy, polite and efficient. Far better than some of the more established estate agents in Bedford (who were atrocious.)
I would not hesitate to use these chaps again and when it comes to selling our home, would entrust them without hesitation.
L.
Very good agents, always answered queries. Can't recommend the service that Sandra offers highly enough. She is a pure gem , nothing is too much trouble for her. Whatever her salary is , its not enough. Sandra was always professional and always went above and beyond anything she was asked to do.cant recommend her enough.
N. F.
James Kendall Estate Agents marketed and sold our house in early 2018 and throughout the whole process I was extremely pleased with the experience. From the initial contact through to the eventual completion of sale, the team at James Kendall kept us up to date regularly and were proactive in managing what proved to be a tricky lower chain. Forget PurpleBricks - the extra money paid for a knowledgeable agent and a professional service is worth every penny.
J. P.
I choose James Kendall Estate agents because I wanted a local company who could offer excellent customer service. They went above and beyond ! I can not recommend James Kendall Estates enough !
They were very professional and explained the whole process. With their wealth of experience they answered all our questions and concerns. Nothing was too much.
At every stage of the process we were kept informed on a daily and weekly basis.
Having had dealings with other estate agents large and small nothing compares to James Kendall Estates agents customer service & professional service.
If your not with James Kendall Estate agents then your doing it all wrong.
J. M.
First class service from beginning to end. Matt Hammond was fantastic handling the marketing, viewings and sale of my property. They gave a personal service always keeping me informed every step of the way. A great job definitely a company worth 5 stars and I would have no hesitation in recommending them. A great team.
J. W.
I've used James kendall estate agents three times to sell my property's and I would recommend him every time. He's on the ball with prices, always at the end of the phone to help, or gets back to you as soon as he can. His prices are very competitive and his advice was always spot on. I have no qualms in recommending James Kendall to anyone whether your home is large or small.
N. S.
James and his team were brilliant. They sold my house within 3 days. Everything from the valuation, the photos taken and communication throughout were perfect. They made it all very easy. I genuinely could not have asked for more. Superb service and I highly recommend.
J. F.
James Kendall estate agents are the market leaders in estate agency around Bedford. The services they provide is second to none because they make you feel relaxed theouout the house selling process by keeping you informed of the current situation on a regular basis.
The way they drum up interest in your property is by giving you honest advice on how to make your house a better prospect for potential buyers. It just means you may have to move a bit of clutter to make your home more promising to others, which I have found other estate agents reluctant to comment upon and without a doubt this made my house more appealing for others to come and visit.
I had one day of viewings in which 16 people visited my house, by the end of the day we had received three offers all above the asking price. The house was sold STC days later, by far the easiest process I have ever experienced in selling a home.
A. B.
James and team went above and beyond my expectations to Sell my house, And Help us find our forever home!
As with all moves it had its issues, But we were kept informed the moment any news occurred, and any issues quickly resolved.
In the past I used Wilson Peacock to sell, They made me never want to sell a house again with their lies and lack of communication
I can safely say I will never use another estate agent other than JKEA.
W. B.
James Kendall and his team recently sold my property and I couldn’t have been happier with the whole experience.
Throughout the entire process they were always on hand to offer their guidance and advice regardless of the time of day or how silly I felt the question was.
I was kept informed at every stage and even in-between which made for a stress free experience enabling both myself and my wife to take a step back from the process.
This is a firm I would highly recommend to all, there were no pushy sales techniques and no hidden tricks or costs unlike many other agents.
I have since recommended them to several other friends and family in the area, all of whom have had positive selling and purchasing experiences.
Overall, a flawlessly efficient, professional and business like service with the feeling of a small family run enterprise, Five Stars all round.
D. M.
We cannot speak highly enough of James and the team. They went completely above and beyond on so many occasions with regards to both our sale and purchase earlier this year. The desire to deliver the best experience was evident immediately and they acheived that and more, which is a real breath of fresh air. If we move in the future we will be using James Kendall again without any hesitation. Thanks for all you did.
R. H.
So.... where to start? If you are looking for an agent with nothing less than great attributes to offer the market then these are your guys!
From my initial email with JKEA to selling my house took all of approximately 12 days....
James could not be easier to work with if he tried....!
I was kept in the loop every step of the way and had no concerns whatsoever and was kept totally at ease as i was updated constantly with exactly what was going on and i cannot possibly think of anything negative to say about JKEA, there services or the process!
If you are looking to sell your home totally stress free then look no further
I cannot thank James and his team enough for the fantastic services they offer!
D. B.
The service and communication provided by James Kendall was fantastic from start to finish. I felt extremely valued as a customer and they made our transition of selling our home very easy!
C. R.
James and Richard make a great team. James made our house look stunning through his photography and video expertise. Richard is so enthusiastic and a fantastic salesman. Their energy and professionalism along with their innovative social media marketing approach made a real difference to most traditional estate agents.
R. M.
From start to finish, thoroughly the best experience I have had with any estate agency. Professional, thoughtful and sold my house within a week. Cannot recommend highly enough
A. C.
Finding a good estate agent is rare, and these boys are up there with the best! Very professional, happy to advise on any question you may have. James has a great team! Sold the house within 72 hours of listing for the money I wanted! Highly recommend
M. P.
An estate agent like no other. Excellent business model, highly effective marketing and proactive sales progression. Leaves others completely in the shade. Engage them with confidence.
T. M.
As usual we went to a few estate agents to sell our property. James and the team stood out from the start, they are punctual and reliable from start to finish. They are very professional and will go above and beyond to help and support. Ultimately they sold out house with no issues (even through Covid lockdowns) highly recommend.
B. W.
Richard from James Kendall E/A has been amazing! He is professional, likeable and delivers all promises! The whole process of selling our home has been stress free and easy. I would highly recommend Richard and James Kendall to anyone looking to sell or buy!
D. L. C. S.
Great service from the start to the very end!
I have used James and his team now on 2 properties and a communication is 2nd to none I wouldn't hesitate in recommending them have used many estate agents over the years I can honestly say these are one of the best. Thank you guys and see you on the next move.
E. R.
James and Michael sold our house in Kempston in July 2015, within 2 days being on the market. They were both very professional throughout the process, even though our purchase was a little difficult at times. Nothing was too much trouble and even provided assistance with the property we were purchasing. I highly recommend James Kendall to anyone wanting to sell their property. Thank you to you both.
L. B.
These guys are amazing! It took 6 months to sell our house due to buyer's pulling out. We also had 6 months of consistently of the agents. Always felt important and always kept communication going between all parties. Would 100% reccomend
J. P.
James and Tim have changed my perspective of Estate agents completely! From the beginning to the end they have been fantastic and on the ball, and I have no hesitation in reccomending them to anyone. Thank you so much for everything you have done, we are forever grateful for you making this the least stressful house sale and purchase!
R. B.
We have used James Kendall Estate agents twice now. Not only did they meet our expectations with the selling price they also go the extra mile to make sure the sale goes through as smoothly as possible. I would and do recommend these to anyone looking to buy or sell.
T. F.
I would thoroughly recommend James Kendall, professional, always upfront, always called when they said. Sandra Bloch went above and beyond the call of duty for us and got a very difficult chain to completion. I'm pretty sure without her efforts the chain would have collapsed: five stars!
L. Y.
I would highly recommend James Kendall. The what's app group they set up was a great way to receive updates and I always received a response to my queries quickly. James and Matthew were helpful and sold my house extremely quickly!
D. W.
I needed to sell my house, so I arranged for two high street Estate Agents and the independent James Kendall to value my house and provide costs.
Upon meeting Tim Anderson from JK, it was evident he was head and shoulders above the other two in terms of professionalism, knowledge of the current market, advice and guidance. Despite giving a lower, albeit realistic property valuation and their fees being slightly higher, Tim was the man for the job.
And he didn't disappoint. Superb photography including 360 video ensued, followed by numerous eager viewers with feedback given after each viewing. Four weeks later I'd sold.
Tim even offered a 'Buying Service' on the house I was to buy, using his knowledge and bargaining skills to secure the house for well under the offer price.
Moral of the story... you get what you pay for.
J. R.
We found James Kendall Estate Agents to be very professional, personable and proactive in marketing our house. They succeeded in securing us a sale in a difficult market place where other agents couldn’t !
O. B.
I would like to express and share our experience with James Kendall, they were very professional and prompt in responding to any enquiries you had. We communicated directly with Matt and he was amazing! always kind and helpful , we would be happy to tell our friends and family of this amazing service!
K. S.
Couldn't have asked for a better estate agent. We had 5 viewings booked on our house within 48hours of it going on the market and had a very good offer within a couple of days of the viewing. I had do many questions to ask and I never felt like I was an inconvenient or that my questions were stupid. Would highly recommend to anyone. It's nice to be known on a name basis and not just seen as a number
M. C.
A very helpful and proactive team who supported us through every stage of the purchase. They were always happy to answer our questions and to pass on communication between ourselves the other parties involved.
K. B.
Fantastic job of getting our house on the market, making it look amazing and selling it within two weeks. All of the team did a great job keeping us updated.
We would highly recommend James Kendall Estate Agents.
R. W.
James & his team have been perfectly professional, efficient and considerate during the entire process of selling our property. I would recommend them to everyone. They realise its a very personal thing and do everything to make you feel at ease with advice and assistance every step of the way. A great job well done. Thanks Team JK :) *****

I approached a number of agents to sell my mother's house. It was in the middle of the first coronavirus lockdown and James was the only agent to respond. Very professional and kept me informed along the way. Responsive to questions and he has a sense of humour too. I would recommend James.

JK Estate Agents always put customer needs first. Nothing is ever too much trouble and they go above and beyond what is expected of an estate agent but they will say they are simply delivering the service that you are paying for. They're a great team, friendly and professional and I recommend them to anyone looking to buy/sell their home.

Not the experience I was hoping to have.. Having looked into the reviews and made my own judgement I was hopeful that I had made the right choice of agent going with James Kendall, but sadly it didn't work out and I decided to give another agent a try. Very impressive technology when it comes to the contract being paperless and the look of the FB page and instagram is very impressive.. Sadly after over 2 weeks of being with James Kendall I had to ask for my property to be shown on these sites as it wasn't already on there. The thing that disappointed me the most was, after having a disappointing number of viewings we had an enquiry about a viewing on a Saturday. Due to family event we were unable to let anyone into our house that day but we said we would be able to do the Sunday. The people wanting to do the viewing were also avaliable on that day. However it was made very clear to me that we would have to do the viewing as they don't work on Sundays.. This was fair enough but I was hoping for a bit of flexibility on their part as we had had a slow start (to say the least). We were preparing to do the viewing and I had a text to suggest that I take the kids out while we do the viewing.. I found this annoying and patronising and this was the straw that broke the camels back. I decided to go to another local agent and I am glad that I made that move but I am regretting making the wrong decision in the first place. There is no doubt looking at the other reviews there have been many success stories and as mentioned at the start there is alot to like about this agent but sadly it didn't work out for us.

Best experience from an Estate Agent ever, knowledgeable, passionate and they actually care! Full asking price offer in 4 days. Will defo use again.
Whatsapp group used for comms. They beat all the stereotypes and were honest from the first phone call.

From the very start, Tim has been extremely professional, helpful and friendly. He’s super knowledgeable too. He’s made the whole process, which can be incredibly daunting, totally stress free and easy and we would not hesitate to recommend James Kendall to anyone.

Wow! The BEST! The lads at JKEA were 2 steps ahead throughout the whole process, calling us 'just to let us know'. We felt completely in the loop and didn't have time for questions or chasing because they were there. 2 steps ahead, every step of the way. Furthermore, JKEA were so friendly and personable, whenever i returned a call, they answered the call by addressing me by name - if that isn't service that makes you feel valued, I don't know what is! I would NEVER move without these guys again. You were fantastic and we are extremely grateful for all of your hard work. Finally, moving made easy! Thanks to James and Matt. Kind Regards,
The Hubbard-Jones Family

I cannot praise these guys enough ! The process was simple and seamless, everyone I spoke to throughout the sale knew exactly what was going on straight away.

A brilliant and professional service, helping us to sell our late parents home. Tim went above and beyond in helping us to see the sale through to a successful conclusion as we had to manage the sale from a significant distance.

I was so happy with Chloes service, she was amazingly helpful, right from the start of sale through to the end, I would recommend this Estate Agent to everyone, personal service was excellent
L. B.
I can not recommend these guys highly enough. After having no success with another agent, they turned things around really quickly. We moved to the US a few weeks after the house went on the market with them and they really did go above and beyond the call of duty to ensure we were kept fully informed and everything ran smoothly.
L. T.
An amazing company to deal with ! Assisting in every way to ensure we moved into our dream home for Xmas
