Reviews of Urban & Rural Property Services

D. M.

The team at Urban and Rural were terrific from the start. They took the time and care you would expect from a leading estate agency. Nothing was too much trouble and when a buyer pulled out, they had others ready and waiting meaning we didn't lose our dream home. Glenn did a super job on the valuation, and provided advice on offers from some prospective buyers, then Katie and Daniel worked hard to ensure that the property was sold within a week. Once terms were agreed, Melanie made sure we were kept informed every step of the way even when other agents involved were less than communicative! All in all, the experience, although stressful at times, was made easier by this team and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them as an agency.

Am in the process of selling my property and puchasing a new home both through Urban and Rural Bedford. They have made the whole experience easy and straightforward, I feel very supported by them and trust their guidance. I have mainly dealt with John and Alex, both have been friendly, have excellent knowledge and have made what is normally a very stressful process feel incredibly simple. I would highly recommend using Urban and Rural.

Urban and rural have been very professional as well as extremely helpful whilst we were looking for our new home. From giving us contacts to help us to with our mortgage arrangements, to fitting viewings around our busy schedule, suggesting relevant properties we had not come across previously and much more to help us on our way! Would highly recommend using this company when searching for your new home.

Urban and Rural were amazing for start to finish. Communication was superb and we always felt part of the process. They understood what we wanted from the start and were very understanding of our requirements, never pushing us to drop price or negotiate the sale price. Melanie in particular was incredible when it came to difficulties with our solicitor, she was so helpful and reassuring. We couldn’t recommend Urban and Rural enough!

D. M.

Extremely positive experience selling our property with Urban & Rural Bedford. Throughout the process Gareth was very helpful, informative and professional. Melanie was second to none keeping us informed of progress and conveying messages to our buyers! My wife and I would thoroughly recommend Urban & Rural for a pain free house sale.

We recently brought our house through Urban and Rural and they provided a fantastic service. We were selling through a different estate agent who were really unhelpful and Melanie, in particular, kept us sane, helping with chasing everybody and keeping things moving. If we were to move in future, we would definitely use Urban and Rural and have no hesitation in recommending them.

The service I received from Urban and Rural was exceptional. Tony provided very helpful advise and his valuation was spot on. All the staff in the office were very helpful. I was notified of all appointments by text and email and received feedback on all the viewings. Tony was also very pro-active once the chain was complete and he put in a lot of work chasing solicitors and the other purchasers to help speed things along. Special thanks to Julie who worked very hard on the day of completion providing regular updates. I would thoroughly recommend Urban and Rural.

If you are looking to sell your home - I would highly recommend Urban and Rural. They were the first agency and the only one to respond to my online request for a valuation - they gave us a good picture of the local market, understood our situation entirely and took some beautiful photographs of our home. The added value they gave was impressive from a very competitive commission rate to included featured property on RightMove. Our house was on the market less that 24hrs, we had 8 viewings booked. All the visits were 100% Covid compliant - masks, overshoes, sanitiser and social distancing. The first person through the door made an asking price offer. What more can you ask for?

We chose Urban & Rural Bedford to help us sell our property as they demonstrated confidence they would sell our house and they did... THREE times!! We placed our house on the market mid October last year, and sold in January, we were so excited since the viewings had fallen over the Christmas period. Unfortunately our buyers buyer pulled out so we put our house back on the market and in March we sold again, it fell through. However in May we sold and finally completed in JUNE!!! Thank you Sharon for completing the majority of our viewings and selling our home! Once sold, the aftercare was brilliant, we were not let down by Glen, Melanie, Sam, Sue and Sharon.. We did have a few bumps along the way, however all issues were faced with empathy and professionalism. We went through a rollercoaster of emotion... we even nearly changed to another estate agent, but are so GLAD we didn’t. On the day of completion we were so pleased we were able to share the experience with those who had worked so hard to help get us there. We thank God we chose the team at Urban & Rural. We especially have to thank GLEN who spent hours of his time, even personal time listening to our worries and concerns - we certainly shared a lot of laughter through it all and we couldn’t think of anyone else we should have shared the experience with... he has become more of a friend after all we went through together! A big shout out to all of the team is deserved so here’s to you: Glen, Gareth, Sharon, Melanie (her voice always makes you Smile!), Sue, Sam and David. We Most Certainly Recommend the Urban & Rural Bedford Team!

We recently purchased a property with Urban and Rural and they were amazing, very professional and helpful. Sam and Melanie were so helpful during the whole process and nothing was too much for them even when ringing almost every day during the final week! would definitely recommend!

We purchased our house recently through Urban and Rural and I just have to leave them a 5 star review - They were professional, responsive and kept us fully informed through the whole process. A special thank you needs to go out to Melanie who went above and beyond to help with any query and enquiry we/our solicitors were struggling with. Would highly recommend and thank you all again.

I was delighted at all times with the service from Bedford branch of Urban & Rural. Firstly they got the valuation spot on, not too high to put viewers off and not too cheap to loose money. Great advice on conveyancers and energy certificates. A steady stream of viewings. Sold on second week of listing. Highly recommend.

J. S.

Fantastic experience using urban and rural and highly recommend to anyone requiring an estate agent. Gareth was always available by email and phone and sorted any issues or queries I had. Would have no hesitation using in the future

Urban and Rural recently helped me with the selling of three properties in Bedford. As I live in Devon, I was concerned that selling properties at such a distance would not be an easy matter. The fact that it was not the stressful drawn out process that I feared is very much down to Gareth and the team at Urban and Rural. They were approachable, friendly and enthusiastic and were able to quickly grasp the situation and to present me with a tailor-made plan. At all points Gareth and the team communicated and kept me informed. It was apparent that they had an efficient and well organised system in place. What I liked most about Gareth’s approach was his creative and flexible approach and this was seen particularly when we had to make changes and rethink plans. This is really important when selling a house as there can often be setbacks and changes that are out of the seller’s control. In these cases, the plans were adapted so as to keep us on track and achieve a good sale.

H. O.

All very efficient from the start, when my home was valued. The agents kept me updated throughout liaising with all in the chain and made a significant difference with the progress of the sale and purchase.

G. H.

It took some time for my property to sell, a price reduction increased interest and an offer was made. After this the process was quick and seamless. Melanie kept me updated throughout.

J. W.

Tremendous team, John, Matthew, Erin, Melanie and all of the team are just brilliant! Sold and purchased with them and they made a stressful experience as easy as possible! Couldn’t recommend the team more highly.

T. S.

Alex was very COVID sensitive, quick and professional as were any of the office team with any query. We sold asking price first offer first viewing so couldn’t be happier.

Great service. Very professional and pro-active with both the purchase of a new house and the sale of our old one. Far better than other estate agents we've used previously.

Wonderful service from all the staff, especially Glen (valuation), Gareth (on the second sale!) and Melanie (for keeping us cheerful when all seemed lost). Highly recommended. Rob & Mel

I have been fully satisfied with the service received from Urban & Rural (Bedford branch) during the recent sale of my elderly father’s property in Bromham. Making a move from what had been the family home for over 55 years was a big step for him. I found Glenn to be calm, straightforward and professional from the word go; even before we had definitely decided to go to market, there was no hard sell and Glenn was happy to leave things with us so we didn’t feel under pressure. We were given sound advice regarding the marketing strategy but, again, we didn’t feel in any way coerced into taking a particular course of action. The viewings in mid January were all arranged over one single weekend. Coincidentally these took place during the period of huge upsurge in COVID infections so understandably we had our concerns. Nonetheless everything went smoothly: we left Sue on her own in the house to manage all 17 viewings from which 12 offers then followed - very quickly! Communications during all stages of the subsequent sale process were timely, clear and efficient. What I appreciated most from both Glenn and Sue was the fact that they showed respect for the property: they never forgot that it was still my father’s home until the point of completion. I would like to thank them and, not forgetting their other colleagues, whom I didn’t meet in person, for their excellent service. I would have no hesitation in recommending Urban & Rural to others or to return to them myself should I look to move house in the future. Many thanks!

Had a great experience with Urban & Rural whilst purchasing our first home. All estate agents were helpful and friendly whilst viewing properties. The service we received from Glenn, Gareth & Matt was excellent. Glenn kept us in the loop of the process and gave us all the informations we needed. Will use Urban & Rural in future and recommend to friends and family. Thanks guys.

I am so impressed with Urban & Rural, all the staff were helpful, friendly and highly knowledgeable about the area and market. From the first time I meet with Alex Keeble everything went so smoothly, the photos and floor plan of my property were fantastic. If I ever buy or sell again I will definitely use Urban & Rural.

J. D.

We used Urban and Rural to sell our previous house 5 years ago and we were so pleased with their service we have chose to go back to them recently. Erin was very professional and helpful when I spoke to her on the phone and Glenn was also very professional and helpful when he came to our house. He was very informative and answered all of my questions. We wouldn’t use anyone else and I highly recommend using them.

O. W. N.

Urban & Rural were excellent estate agents during the purchase of my first property. They were responsive and professional and very helpful throughout the entire process. Would thorougly recommend and will come back to them when I sell.

P. S.

Outstanding service, end to end, by outstanding people. We experienced Glenn, Alex and Melanie on our house sale journey and this trio were so dynamic. Always on the front foot, always in control, always ensuring we had taken the next step. They deliver their work with such pace and quality, alongside being exceptionally warm and engaging, it’s nothing short of first class. These characteristics of their service enable you to feel so confident in the eventual success of the process. They’re an asset to Urban & Rural and Urban & Rural are an asset to Bedfordshire. We cannot recommend them highly enough. It’s clear that my partner and I will, without thought, sell our next house with them after our superb experience.

S. B.

Selling to relocate after 20+ years in one home was daunting but Alex and the team at Urban and Rural (Bedford) made the process as stress free as possible. Excellent support and fast reply to any queries we had. In addition to Alex's assistance, particular thanks to John and Sam who supported us through to completion.
