Reviews of Phillips and Still

R. C.

Phillips and Still were recommended to me, and I'm so glad I went with them! Ollie & Richard did an amazing job as my sales agent and achieved the full asking price, saw the sale through from start to finish and were very communicative and helpful throughout. They were extremely professional from the outset and had my property valued and marketed within a few days. There was email feedback after each viewing within a couple of hours which was very useful. I am so pleased I chose Philips & Still and I am delighted with their achievement and quality of service! Highly recommend!

A. W.

One word to describe Phillips and Still, Amazing!! From day one they took on board what we wanted and helped us achieve our goal in selling our house. They were professional and kept us in the loop every step of the way, which for us was so important as the whole process of selling a house was very daunting for us. We would absolutely recommend these guys and if we move again we will be knocking on their door.

D. N.

Phillips and Still came highly recommended and I would like to thank Chris and his team for their professional manner throughout the whole sales process. I received constant updates throughout and I received the full asking price. Very happy and would use this company again without any doubt.

These guys are by far the best estate agents in Brighton and hove, we have had a flat on the market for a while most couldn’t sell it or just gave up. Chris Still though, absolutely amazing guy and businessman will look after you from beginning to end look no further than Chris at Phillips and still !!!! Amazing service.

A. P.

P&S were recommended to me by a friend. It was a very smooth process from start to finish. I mainly dealt with Richard who was very polite and respectful of my needs as a seller. Would recommend them highly for professionalism and integrity.

F. S.

Really great service, particularly from Josh. He went above and beyond, arranging additional viewings and surveys that were required - all without any fuss, and I am eternally grateful for all of his help! Wouldn’t hesitate to use Phillips and Still in the future, and would definitely recommend them.

A few months ago I was (inconveniently) placed on a strangers table at Gin Tub. That stranger happened to be Chris Still. After a couple of shots we got talking about Properties. Since then he has helped tremendously. his expertise, straight to the point un salesy approach was freshingly honest. Not only has he helped with a smooth process but was efficient and assisted with all things property related. Could not recommend more highly. Turned out to be a rather (convenient) Tomcat mango.

After over 20 years in our home, it was time to move and we chose to go with Phillips and Still on the back of its recent ratings in Brighton as the "best sales branch of the year". They made an excellent job of presenting the property on their website and soon came up with plenty of prospects, managing all the viewings for us. The second quarter of 2021 was a frantic time on the property market, coming out of the pandemic and a with a looming deadline with a stamp duty "holiday" due to finish at the end of June. A good solid buyer was soon found. Things had gone well so far but it was then that P and S really earned its keep. Senior negotiator Ollie Solomons was our main contact and impressed us during price negotiations with the buyer, doing his hardest to get us the best deal. After 20 odd years we were both pretty out of touch with the mechanics of property sales and he took time to keep us well briefed on where we were and helped and soothed us through what turned out to be a stressful couple of months, with all the uncertainties and ups and downs that seemingly everyone has to endure at that stage. Anyway, to use an Ollie expression, he "got us over the line", with a few days to spare in fact. I'm aware that estate agents don't always have the best of reputations but there are some out there who will go the extra mile for you and do genuinely care about their clients. We certainly had one here. I'm pleased to recommend Phillips and Still and if I were ever selling a Brighton property again (heaven forfend!) I would certainly go back to them!

K. K.

We have worked with Philips and Still a couple of times now once on a flat purchase but most recently on our flat sale. They were fantastic from start to finish. Chris and Ollie have made the whole process seamless. Their communication is second to none and we felt supported and informed throughout. The sale progressed at pace because of their approach and we were happy with how they handled it. Ollie was exceptionally speedy in all communications and went above and beyond numerous times. We genuinely believe the sale wouldn’t have been so quick and seamless without them. Through our work we interact with a lot of estate agents across the city and we would 100% say that Philips and Still are the best there is. They are friendly and welcoming but at the same time tenacious and knowledgable. You really won’t regret using their services.

A.

We bought a property through Phillips and Still. From our first viewing all the way through to completion, they were professional, approachable and knowledgable. We loved that it was one of the smaller, more independent estate agents and Ollie looked after us brilliantly from the start of the process all the way to completion.

T. T.

Highly recommend Phillips & Still for buying & selling property. My transaction was handled very smoothly, professionally and with excellent communication and customer service. Lucy was extremely friendly, knowledgeable, helpful and honest and made the process as stress-free as possible.

B. B.

Chris and the team where kind, respectful and very patient. I have no reservation in highly recommending them!

A. J.

Brilliant service - highly recommend. Chris made the process 10x less stressful than it could have been. He was also incredibly quick at resolving any problems and there was constant, good communication. Thank you!!

L. R.

I instructed Phillips & Still to value & sell 2 properties for me. Chris Still handled this for us from start to finish. He found a buyer for both properties very quickly & liaised very efficiently & consistently with all parties throughout. I’m very impressed by Chris’s work ethic & professional attitude. He worked tirelessly & went above and beyond to secure completion. I would thoroughly recommend this company based on my recent experience with them & wouldn’t hesitate to use them again.

A. G.

If you want to sell your house, make sure you use Phillips and Still! They are brilliant! Forget big name estate agent chains with hefty fees and impersonal service, these guys are the business! Chris, Richard and their team offer a truly first rate service with a personal touch. Put simply, they are the best agents we have ever come across. We sold our house and purchased through Phillips and Still and we found what should've been a hugely stressful experience, actually very smooth and stress free! They are totally professional and kept us well informed at every stage of the process. Their fees are highly competitive and the photographs of our house looked amazing! We sold our house within days of being on the market and I think that's down to the excellent sales particulars and fantastic service they offer. They are a talented team and you really feel that they care about you and your move.

B. C.

Phillips and Still (P&S) have recently been involved in the sale of our current property and acquisition of our new property. Their level of service has been outstanding throughout. I should elaborate on this a little as it was far beyond my expectations. From the outset P&S worked tirelessly with us to ensure we marketed our property just how we wanted. They cared about our input and that collaborative experience really shone through at the end. All of their staff are extremely friendly and we were regularly provided updates on viewings immediately which is exactly what you need when you are in the process of selling. The stand out piece was the personal service. Chris Still was involved from Day 1 and continued to be involved daily all the way through to the end. This is a business which really cares about the client and I would recommend their services to anyone in Brighton. Their fees also being extremely competitive which I know matters to all. They want to grow their business and build upon what they really believe in............. They are going the right way about doing that and I wish them all the success they deserve.

T. S.

I chose Phillips and Still for three reasons : Professionalism, credibility and enthusiasm. I was not disappointed. After finding a suitable buyer, they continued to communicate well, be both receptive and responsive and always showed real motivation - they clearly enjoy and take pride in their work. The end result : from offer to exchange in just two months. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending them.

j. m.

I recently sold through Phillips and Still and they were absolutely fantastic. I have used other estate agents in the past and to say the experience was very different. From the start of the entire process they were professional. I mainly dealt with Richard and Chris but the entire team were excellent and not only did they get me an excellent price but the fee they charged was very good for the amount of work put in. I would highly recommend them to anyone who asked for a local agent. Thanks very much James Mortimer

S. D.

I was very pleased when using Phillips and Still to sell my property. I found that all members i dealt with worked extremely hard to make sure my sale went through as fast as possible while ensuring the process was carried out in the most professional manner. I would definitely recommend them.

C. C.

I have been through many estate agents in Brighton the last couple of years, and this is by far and away the best I have used. The attention to detail and desire to do the utmost possible was really refreshing. The agent that helped me, Oliver, was absolutely fantastic and nothing was ever too much hassle for him. It was nice to have an estate agent who cares about my individual needs, not just finding me a property as soon as possible for financial gain. A credit to the company. Would absolutely recommend

A. C.

Phillips and Still were recommended to me, and they were great from start to finish. They were very communicative and helpful throughout. Can definitely recommend.

T. J.

I have just purchased my property from Phillips & Still, and they were fantastic. Richard was professional and loyal throughout the process. He certainly went the extra mile to obtain vital information to complete on my purchase. I highly recommend this agency. Great service, professional and friendly too! Many thanks Richard.

L. S.

Philips and Still have just handled the sale of our property in Hove. All the team are highly professional and personable and we got on well with them all which was a quality we liked. Their photography and marketing is first class which really made our flat stand out. We were impressed with the amount of quality viewings and we were under offer in no time even in these interesting times. Communication throughout was fantastic and we were always given feedback the same day after viewings. A really great and modern company to deal with. Also a special thanks to Alice who took the stress out of selling.

C. G.

We used Phillips and Still to buy our flat and to sell our house at the end of 2014. It was refreshing to use a truly independent firm of estate agents. What you see is what you get. They offer great service and are friendly, responsive and respectful to vendors, buyers and viewers. I would recommend Chris, Richard and their team to anyone thinking of buying or selling a home in 2015.

G. M.

Richard at Phillips and Still has been so helpful in finding my good friend a property. He held his hand all through the process, and communicated with both with my friend, the buyer, and the seller. Not sure all agents are like Richard, and I am sure my friend would not brought a property unless Richard was so professional in the purchasing process. I am now using Phillips and Still to find me a property.

L. D.

Chris Still at Phillips and Still came very highly recommended by a colleague in the Brighton and Hove property business and I can see why. He and his team handled all the modern bureacracy of property transactions with efficient skill, personal attention and just the right amount of pressure when needed.

S. L.

Amazing company, hard working were delighted by everything Chris did from the moment he first came in through the door. He quickly saw the positives in our house and helped us gain the maximum amount to give us the best opportunity to buy our new family home. He was always there to help, advise and support us throughout the entire sale process, as stressful as it was he always made things smoother. Our family home is now a forever home, thanks to all the hard work from everyone at Phillips and Still

O. A.

They are by far the best agency I have dealt with. Even during difficult times they managed to secure me a buyer at an excellent price. Richard, Chris and his team went above and beyond to get the same through and I doubt without them this sale would have gone through to a successful completion. Thanks very much Olly A

c. B.

The staff are completely transparent, honest and communicate at all times. I would recommend Phillips & Still estate agents to all potential sellers and buyers. Selling a house in one day I would not of thought it was possible until I saw with my own eyes. They know Brighton and East Sussex, being local Brighton Estate Agents, right in the heart of Norfolk Square. Furthermore they truly care about selling your home, they come from the heart. The very best estate agents in Brighton they are truly awesome. Thank you for giving me confidence when choosing an estate agents in Brighton, Hove I will always call Phillips & Still. :)

A. M.

Phillips & Still handled the sale of our house when we bought through them moving from Elm Grove area to Preston Park area of Brighton. Alice handled the open day and subsequent viewings with great flair and the feedback she gave from each viewing was thorough and very useful. She is a real asset to the company and is a great starting point for any sale. Richard and Chris dealt with the sale, which was a bit protracted due to the seller, with a high degree of professionalism and positivity. I cannot stress enough how important it is to get the right agent to handle your sale and Phillips & Still provide an excellent, personalised level of service to get things over the line at what is a very stressful time! Highly recommend these guys.

E. I.

These guys are the best. I've known Chris for over a decade, having bought my first property through him. Both Chris & Richard are excellent at what they do, and offer something that many estate agents don't - a truly end-to-end service. They're always there at the end of the phone and offer far more expertise, help & support than many other agencies. Highly recommended.

A. S.

Very helpful Estate Agency. Responded to every enquiry I had were always welcoming when I went into the office with more questions never once did they not have time for me. Abbie went above and beyond for me. After reading lots of good reviews on google I knew I had picked the right agent to sell my home of 20 years and I wasn’t wrong, they did so with no fuss. A straight taking and professional outfit. I don’t normally write reviews but wanted to put my thanks to Chris, Richard and the team in writing for their efforts and communication. Thank you very much Arth

L. M.

Alice from Phillip and still was fantastic from start to finish. They were relaxed in their approach but knew exactly what was going on and pushed hard to make the sale go smoothly and on time when needed. They were not at all salesey which I hate!! Everyone was very polite in the branch, and knew who I was when I came in to collect keys. I was able to view the house 4-5 times with builders which they were totally fine and happy to accommodate. Alice is an asset to the company and will be happy to recommend them to people in the future!

D. C.

Rich and Josh made the process of selling our house stress free. They always updated us and chased the rest of the chain on a regular basis. We wouldn't hesitate in recommending Phillips & Still to any of our friends and family!

J. W.

Josh at Phillips and Still managed our flat sale and he was really excellent throughout the process. From his first visit to do the valuation through to completion he was an absolute pleasure to deal with - professional, personable and smart.

C. P.

I just sold my house through Philips and Still and am delighted. They were not only professional and supportive through the whole process, but they also got me a decent price quickly in this uncertain market. The best estate agency I have used.

A. S.

Very happy with the professional and attentive service from Richard Phillips and the team. By far the best estate agents I have dealt with, they sold my property to the first viewer and were very helpful in making the transaction go through smoothly. Would highly recommend them.

M. B.

We have bought and sold a couple of properties with Chris and his gang at Philips and Still. We found them approachable, responsive and above all honest. None of the usual sale nonsense just honest simple advice.

A. K.

Richard and Chris really went out of their way to make things go as smoothly as possible for us. We were so impressed with their service when they showed us around a property to buy that we went on to sell two properties through them - one in Hove and one in Hurstpierpoint. They were extremely hard working on our behalf and always responded to emails and phone calls very quickly. I've already recommended them to friends.

r. D.

Friendly, helpful but honest estate agents? Oh yes, they really are. Richard Phillips and Chris Still are absolute legends and I can honestly say that without their help throughout the 9-month drama that was moving house, I think I might have lost the plot altogether. We had our flat on the market initially with another agency who turned out to be absolutely useless. I called Phillips and Still on the off-chance and Richard was absolutely convinced that he could sell the flat for £25K than the previous agency had recommended. I was slightly dubious but figured that there was nothing to lose and a couple of weeks later he was proved right and we had to cancel the planned Open Day because it had already been sold! Throughout the whole difficult, drawn-out and tedious process they both remained calm, helpful and were always happy to answer questions, no matter how often or how silly they might have seemed. I really cannot recommend them highly enough.

s. k.

A very professional branch of this company (particularly Oliver Solomons) who gave us a brilliant support, help and advice. I couldn't recommend any better agency than this team.

J. M.

The sale of my property was long and complicated but Richard, Chris and their team worked and negotiated tirelessly and I have no doubt the sale wouldn't have reached completion without their hard work and perseverance. Phillips & Still are a shining example of what estate agents should be and I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending you to any and everyone.

F. B.

Excellent estate agents in Brighton. I have received a 1st class service every time I have used them. Very professional and friendly team, totally dedicated to delivering quality and satisfaction to their clients.

A. R.

I recently completed on a purchase in St. Michaels Place. From first viewing to moving day Josh provided an excellent, friendly and professional service. Great communication skills and quick response times definitely reduced any potential stress. I can highly recommend Phillips and Still.

m. c.

It was Alice who showed me around the second flat I looked at - and I loved it. But I needed to sell my house to buy it, and because Alice had been so helpful and easy to get on with I did that through Philips and Still too. Good decision! I'm sure my old home is in good hands, and I couldn't be happier with my new one.

S. H.

Chris Still Is a consummate professional who has worked tirelessly to help us sell our house. He is also an extremely nice person. If you are selling then I would have no hesitation in recommending Phillips & Still to anyone! My wife & I wish them every success in the future.

G. S.

Working with Richard Phillips really changed my perception of estate agents (especially coming from my experiences in London), he was so extremely helpful, and went way beyond expectations at every stage in the sale process, including trying very hard to help me find my onward purchase. I really can't recommend them highly enough.

m. P.

If you are looking for an estate agent with high integrity, working for your interest with no sides, being patient with clients and their demands, then look no further. This has been my experience with Phillips and Still, and I can highly recommend them for their expertise and care. You will not regret it. M. Prior

M. J.

Richard Phillips was absolutely fantastic throughout our purchase and although it was a long and painful process because of the chain it would have been far worse without him!!! Always happy to talk on the phone, answered emails quickly and helped out wherever he could. Could not recommend him enough.

A. C.

I highly recommend Phillips and Still. Chris Still was involved all through the process, and that level of dedication made the process of buying and selling easy. The whole team were a pleasure to deal with. Your search is over, just ask Chris to market your property.

R. D.

We had a very tight deadline in which we had to move and Chris couldn't have been more helpful. He was available to us and really helped push the move through on time. Thanks Chris! Its the best experience we have had with an estate agent and we cant recommend them highly enough.

J. N.

Really thorough and efficient. Worked very hard on our recent sale, and achieved the price we needed. Highly recommend them. Josh kept us updated at all times, he was fantastic to deal with.

G. S.

The staff at Phillips and Still are great. They go above and beyond to be helpful. I really appreciated that they called me even if it was just to say "we're still waiting for this info" - they are excellent at keeping you in the loop at every stage.

K. P.

Chris negotiated the waters of a tricky sale excellently. As a first time buyer I was nervous when things started to get a big rocky but he kept in touch with me throughout the process regularly acting as a go-between between myself and the seller, would thoroughly recommend the agent.

J. O.

The team did a great job with the purchase of my property. They did the hard work so I didnt have to. The kept on top of an issues that came up and made the process stress free.... words not often used when buying a property. Very happy with the outcome. Thank you

E. H.

Very impressed with agency, worked hard and have very strong connections with local solicitors. Found them efficient, competent and proactive that got us a good price on the sale. Would definitely recommend them.

A. S.

Fantastic customer service all the way through the process, would highly recommend. Thank you.

H. H.

Alice was a real hero with our purchase. It was an absolute nightmare due to issues on the sale of our property and further up the chain, and only rescued with Alice's help. Thanks to Alice for helping us buy our dream home, pretty sure it would have fallen through without her help.

P. S.

Couldn't have asked for a more attentive and professional service. Made the transaction stress free and simple despite having its complications. Fantastic guidance on appointing other services such as pre completion works, solicitors and mortgage advisor.

D. S.

From start to finish I received a first class service from Abbie and Chris. All of my emails were responded to on the same day and all my requests were met. They also called me with important updates and I couldn't have asked for anything more. Thanks.

R. F.

So happy with the service! Massive thanks to Alice for all her help!

A. B.

Bought several properties through these guys and have always been very pleased with the service, I usually deal with Chris but the rest of the team are very accommodating. Not your typical estate agent!

After a dreadful 3 month experience with a chain estate agent I turned to P&S who found me a buyer within 5 days. Cant fault them at all, they give estate agents a good name for once.
