Reviews of Strike

I was advised by Elaine West and Lizzie Penny throughout the process of buying my new property in West London. They were very prompt in answering all my queries and I was able to secure an excellent mortgage as well as property and personal protection insurance. I would highly recommend their services.

Six months and numerous interactions with Strike later - I can say I've been really pleased with their service. Strike facilitated the sale of the house I wanted to buy.
They were very easy to communicate with in viewing the house, simply arranging an appointment with the seller - which was helpful in being able to get direct and detailed answers.
Admittedly they don't miss an opportunity in trying to upsell/cross-sell various services around the home-buying process (they have a partner for everything), but actually they weren't pushy. And perhaps after taking a recommendation (from my broker) for a solicitor who turned out to be disappointing - I should have taken Strike's suggestion.
Leeson at Strike was great at relaying communication between myself and the seller - both clear and responsive which helped enormously, particularly in the last two very tense weeks!
Even when Leeson was away, his colleagues were superb at ensuring they passed messages on and I felt I could trust the team at Strike.
All in all - fantastic service from a buyer's perspective.
Thanks to Leeson and the Strike team for their help and patience.

I usually don't write reviews, but I thought it could be very helpful to people that are looking for a reliable mortgage advisor (as I was a few weeks ago).
I contacted strike because they offer free mortgage advice and wanted to give it a chance, I was a bit reluctant at first and wasn't expecting a great service since it was free. But Paul Herbert (my mortgage advisor) was just AMAZING, we had an initial chat on the phone and he asked a few questions to assess my affordability and gave me an idea of how much i could borrow and what would my monthly payments look like. Once I knew that, I started my property search. I found my perfect home and called him back to let him know, he then set a phone call appointment to go through the different mortgage lenders an options and pick the best one for me, he explained everything to me in detail and answered all of the questions I had before making a decision. I picked a lender on that same appointment, sent all the documents that Paul requested (not too many) and he made the application in the evening of that same day. I received the mortgage offer in less than 2 weeks, Paul Herbert and Jay Jasion (special thanks to her as well) kept me updated on every step of the application, they just request a couple of extra documents that the lender needed but apart from that I literally hadn't to move a single finger, they did all the work for me and I can't believe I didn't have to pay for it, it was easy to get hold of them whenever I needed to and they even got me an amazing deal for my building and life insurance and got that sorted for me too. In conclusion, I recommend using strike's mortgage advise services 100% Thanks again Paul and Jay for your excellent service!

My experience as a potential buyer was excellent. They called me and emailed regularly to keep me update rather than having to chase them (which was a very refreshing change after dealing wtih most other estate agencies). The online portal to make offers and have direct contact with the seller was fantastic and made the process much more dynamic and efficient. The seller also said that they had been prompt and attentive in marketing and selling the house. Despite limited contact wtih them I am very impressed and would recomend this estate agency.

I can highly recommend Joanna Branc as a mortgage advisor. We were buying our first house. Joanna helped us to get a mortgage on the good conditions, she is extremely helpful, and professinal, has a knowledge, knows the current market well, answers the emails very quickly, which is all very essential. It was wonderful experience. If I be in need without no doubts I will use her service again.

I heard about Strike initially when I went to view a house via PurpleBricks I believe. I then had an initial call with Josh Legrand who was so helpful and took the time explaining the process and how it all works, and it was because of that call with him that I decided to use Strike to find me a mortgage.
After several calls with Josh he took all my information and was very helpful in guiding me through the process of buying my first home. I didn't know much so I asked a lot of questions and he was patient enough to just listen and then explain. He went above and beyond for me, he would update me all the time (which I asked for) and he would constantly chase things and be a total professional throughout the whole process. After finding the mortgages, he presented me with options from what I had told him and it could not have worked out any better. I really appreciate everything Josh has done for me he is a real asset to Strike and a real professional.
After applying for the mortgage I then worked with Barry Rylance who was in contact with the bank going back and forth sorting out paper work and documents that they needed and helping me and guiding me. Barry was great as I would receive a weekly email, even with the smallest of details which I really like as you never want to feel like you're on your own but these two guys made it feel very professional but always put me at ease and reassured me it would be fine.
I would really like to thank Josh Legrand and Barry Rylance for going above and beyond and really helping me with everything, they were fantastic! I have personally recommended people to use Strike because of the experience that I had with these two gents, absolutely fantastic!

Ajay Chudasama- Best mortgage
advisor
Everything started while arranging a viewing of a house through Strike Estate agents. During the discussion, they recommended us to consider their mortgage advisor and left the decision on us. But unfortunately before our scheduled viewing, the property got sold. However, mortgage advisor from Strike Mr. Ajay Chudasama still insisted on having a call regarding mortgage.
We had a call with him and he helped us to get the mortgage in principle in just two days. From Day 1 he was so helpful and so informative that we were never left with doubts. Fortunately, another property popped up and that too through strike. We put an offer on the property and the sellers accepted. We then had another call with, he applied for our mortgage and we got the mortgage offer within 2 days, yes you read it right just 2 days. He pushed us to apply for mortgage application faster due to which we were able to secure a better interest rate. For one moment we felt like he is bothered more than us about raise in interest rate.
He has supported and guided us at every step. Being first time buyers we had so many questions in mind, but every time he made sure that he tries to answer all our queries. He was the one who called back, replied and never ignored a single message or an email. He is the one who never rushes to finish off the meeting until all our queries are resolved irrespective of he being late to the next meeting. We can blindly trust him for the next mortgage deal in future. He has made our home buying process so easy by helping us to complete mortgage process so smoothly, quickly and easily. I would strongly recommend Ajay for any house mortgage related work. He is the best and the one who goes out of the way just to support his client.
We can’t Thank Ajay enough for all the support provided and helping us buy our new dream house. Thank you once again Ajay.

Absolutely amazing service!! From start to finish the whole process has been stress free, we had quite a 'complicated' application but it was easy peasy for Joe & Barry. Joe was our advisor who got everything together and applied for our mortgage, Barry has been the one keeping us updated and really chasing our lender, he's been absolutely fantastic!!! As first time buyers it is a pretty daunting process but honestly it's been stress free from start to finish. We did originally start our mortgage process with a different mortgage advisor who was just wanting bits of money here and there, and we could never get hold of him, we then was purchasing through strike and was asked if we wanted a chat, I said why not we hadn't anything to loose, it was the best decision I made! The whole service is FREE, yet they deliver the highest level of service from start to finish and been so understanding and patient (with us being first time buyers Joe and Barry went through every single bit of information even extra to reassure us and let us know about the whole process) I have been recommending the service to everybody I speak to as I couldn't be happier!!! Barry phoned me today as he knows I've been anxious, he phoned and greeted me with 'congratulations!!' I was buzzing from then, I feel I've had the best year and we're not even half way through! Literally we have been renting for so long & we are so overcrowded, I was feeling to give up with the prices of houses, the chances of us getting a mortgage etc but these guys have made dreams come true. Thank you thank you thank youuuuu Joe & Barry you are both incredible and have really made my family so so happy!!!!!
A. P.
Amazing service. Had weekly check ins with Joe Bignell who was great with explaining the ins and outs of a mortgage. Then got passed over to Josh Legrand who was great and found us a good mortgage and explained the pros and cons of each mortgages. Follow ups after mortgage application was submitted is brilliant and prompt. Available via email, phone and whatsapp which is handy. Great service overall and would highly recommend.

I sold my house via Strike in 2022.
I have to say I have thought for a long time about how to write this review. Ultimately the bottom line is that Strike did sell my house for free for a price I was happy with - a saving of several thousand pounds is basically impossible to not rate 5*, however that is where the positives end.
I found the experience of using Strike appalling. The initial proposed valuation was over £100k less than the final sold price, and although Strike were happy for us to list at a price we chose I feel this was a somewhat negative start.
We had our case manager randomly changed multiple times during the process. I have to say most Strike staff were completely disinterested - the experience of working in a central office vs working in a local office for commission I think probably reflects this difference vs a local agent.
My biggest issue, by far, with Strike however is their recommended conveyancer, "Strike Conveyancing". This is a front for Premier Property, a firm with a terrible reputation who in our case did such incompetent and useless work that the sale was on the brink of falling through until the other side (we did not use Strike Conveyancing ourselves) changed solicitors.
Overall I found it painful to progress the sale. I made over 100 phone calls to Strike in the course of the conveyancing, and only once I started talking directly to the other side did anything get moving.
I also lodged a formal complaint - and this was mostly ignored. I couldn't even tell if it was ever addressed.
In summary - a really awful experience, but one that ended with several thousand pounds saved. In reality I would probably be willing to use Strike again, because ultimately most people would accept some inconvenience for that level of saving. If however this is your first time buying or selling, or you lack the time and energy to progress the sale yourself, I would steer well clear of Strike.

No stress, No fees, They'll sell your house with ease..
We didn't expect that selling our property would prove to be such a nightmare until we discovered Strike who gave a stress free experience surprising us by introducing dedicated professionals with specialised expertise to expedite each step of the selling process offering advice and suggestions that definitely increased viewings which helped bring about the sale.
Strike's website gives you daily updates on your progress, the ability to arrange your own viewings and to communicate with potential buyers.
Customer service is extraordinary. Always available at the end of a phone line no matter who answers, they know who you are and how to help.
This is our 4th move and our experience with Strike was on a completely different and far higher level.
Every member of each team really went out of there way to understand and resolve our problems. Nothing was too much trouble for them and I hope they forgive me for not remembering all their names but
Special thanks to Rob, Terrance, Lee, Rebecca, John and Isis. You are all amazing.
We still can't believe that Strike offer a more comprehensive service than any agent we've used before and the whole package is completely free. I have no doubt they will soon become the agency that dominates the online housing market.
I. S.
We foiund the whole process of selling wiht Strike to be efficient at al stages. Each Adviser was helpful and on hand to assist with any problems. these included Alex, who dealt with the valuation, Chris Bovey, who took over for the viewings and Edward Voss, who helped finalise the sale.
my only suggestion for improvement, would be to have a personal number or what's App number for each contact, rather than the generic number, as it was not always easy to get to speak to the person dealing with the matter at each stage of the process.
However, overall a good experience and would recommend to friends.
Many thanks.

Sally and Jay from Strike have been extremely helpful throughout the process of acquiring a mortgage. Always available to answer any questions and very knowledgeable and friendly. Excellent value too compared to other brokers. Would recommend.
C. B.
Lauren and Charlotte have been nothing less than fantastic throughout the entire mortgage process. They are supportive, knowledgeable, understanding, engaging, thoughtful and really great at their jobs. They have made a complex and at times busy process, easy to navigate and their wealth of experience in guiding and making decisions for us in the best way for our future, has been brilliant, we would have been lost without them. I cannot recommend them highly enough, thank you for everything you have done for us so far!
M. H.
Our house selling process was so simple and very well supported. We’ve recommended Strike to every friend/family member since. The chain was unfortunately ‘difficult’ and Strike were always on hand to support the misunderstandings and chase the estate agents/solicitors to push the sell forwards. Even though it took 11 months to move (after we sold after 4 days of putting the house on the market), Strike were perfectly reliable in their service. Finally, the cost was incredible! We’ve cringed at the amount we paid compared to friends who have sold and paid % fees - we always advised them to use Strike.
T. C.
Firstly a hugh extended massive thank you to Siobhan from start to finish. Impeccable service going above & beyond with the purchase of my sale. Purchasing a new home was stressful to say the least, Siobhan kept all situations professional and calm.
Should anyone use this companies services, highly recommend Siobhan Wardle as your sales progressor.
Competent, enthusiastic and excellent to deal with.
Thank you so much, love my new home so much.
N. M.
Joanna helped us apply for our first mortgage and was very helpful and reassuring throughout this process. She helped us make the application before the interest rate increase which meant we were able to get the best deal available. She helped the process feel easy for us as first time buyers.
R. S.
From the moment we got our valuation from Lesley, Strike couldn't have been more helpful. In a week we had sold our house for over 30k more than a local estate agent wanted to market it at!
Throughout the process Shannon was great help and communication was excellent. I hope not to move again, but if I do, it will 100% be with strike.
A. B.
Strike were brilliant from start to finish.
Staff were friendly, knowledgeable and acted fast on any questions I had.
They were not pushy for me to purchase anything extra but provided me an oversight on all packages available to sell my home.
They even discouraged me to pay for extras at one point as I was being impatient my house did not sell quick enough.
Glad I listened to them as week 2 on the market I got asking value for my property.

I’ve had a fantastic experience with Strike. Jon Welling has been very patient and attentive from start to finish in finding me the right mortgage offer to suit my needs. When buying a house, quick responses are always appreciated and Jon and Daisy-Peach have been incredibly helpful, and professional and have provided exceptional customer service.
I sincerely highly recommend Strike and commend the company for having employees that are so friendly and effective.
D. P.
Staff were always friendly and quick to respond. We appoached a few brokers and Strike were by far the most helpful and didn't charge us a penny (like some of the others proposed to). Very approachable and made the experience as first time buyers much less daunting. Would definietely recommend!
E. C.
Brilliant. The service from start to finish has been very impressive and I would encourage anyone selling their house to use them.
Every person you speak with is professional and friendly, if you need to call, the phone is always answered, if a message is taken, they always ring you back. They keep you updated every step of the way through multiple channels so you never miss a message. We were supported from start to finish, right up to the day of handing our keys over.
We were allocated a specific person at each part of the sales journey and our sales progressor Mae Lake was a star at liaising with everyone in the chain and solicitors to ensure things ran as smoothly as possible.
Although not intending to move again....I would only ever use Strike from now on.
A. G.
Strike have been really good to deal with. Their smart phone system which helps them match your details and work out who you are really does improve their customer service, and they are easier to get through to on the phone than most estate agents. They are also all nice, helpful people who are reliable about passing in messages.
The highlight for me has been their sales progressor, Siobhan Wardle, who has been absolutely top notch through a rather difficult and complicated process. She has been so professional about working with both sides but also really friendly and understanding on a human level. She keeps in touch really well without being demanding, and she's also experienced, calm and knowledgeable.
If I am ever selling property I would choose strike and specify that I need Siobhan on the case!
P. J.
I used strike to market my property which sold within 4 weeks, I also decid to use strikes conveyancing services which were very fast and there digital platform was refreshing to use in the old proffesion of conveyancing. I just completed my house sale in total took 4 months from date my house was advertised to closing. Very impressed with the service, customer focus and efficiency of there digital platform. Outstanding
A. I.
Strike really did a fantastic job helping us through the mortgage process! Mike Szabo and Toni Jackson are incredible and we cannot thank them enough! Very knowledgeable, professional and friendly, it was a real pleasure working with them. The process was very smooth.
R. M.
This was my first property and through Strike it was a great experience. Often I was a little lost and unsure but the team were very helpful and understanding. Jade Sybray was my negotiator and when things weren't going well she did an amazing job of keeping everything on track. If it is wasn't for her the deal may not of gone through, so I am very much thankful and indebted to her help! Thank you for the help and time in getting me over the finish line and with my first property

We are purchasing a house marketed by Strike so haven't had an awful lot to do with them, however it was easy to settle the agreed sale, then through to progressions where we had a few people dealing with the sale until we were "given" SHANNON - she is the professional continuity we needed. She's a very friendly, proactive and very approachable person, I ended up filling in details of their sale (our forwsrd purchase) as she'd not been updated, however I was glad I could help. Shannon is an asset to Strike, if you get her on your team, you're going to be looked after. Team Shannon every time, thank you for helping us with our onward purchase, you know how stressful it is, but always there to help however you can. We're nearly there, so we'll be talking again soon but it's so great you're there. Thank you again

We are just waiting to complete on our purchase through Stike. We were assigned Leeson as our sales progression advisor. Leeson has been very thorough, answering our questions immediately and putting our minds to rest during the stresses that come with buying and selling houses. Leeson is always quick to respond and to chase any enquiries or concerns. Furthermore, Strike on the whole have been very easy to deal with. Their app makes communication easy and even making offers was a breeze.
I would highly recommend purchase with Strike.
C. G.
Whilst the purchase of my property has not been plane sailing in the slightest, and from my experience, I would advise not to use the solicitors recommended through strike, Claire Ingham has been really supportive and helpful throught the process. She kept me updated as much as possible, and really tried to get all parties to work together. She really is a credit to Strike. She explained all issues to me in a friendly and professional manner, and I really don't think she could have done more to help with my case. Despite all issues, thank you so much Claire for your pro-active and humorous attitude throughout.
J. D.
More just a review of Heather Bartlett-Izzard in her sales progression role than Strike as whole. She was very helpful in chasing solicitors/agents in the chain. She gave us frequent updates of the situation and was always willing to help us in a friendly and patient way.
We weren't a client of Strike but were buying from someone who was, so I was pleased with how willing they were to keep us informed.
C. S.
I sold my property through strike and got the full market value within days.
The new property I purchased was also free strike and it all went through no problems.
The only negative point is that they will not come and take the sign down even though the property has been purchased and we have moved in. I understand this is free advertising for them but when you buy a new home who wants to sign stuck in the garden still.
A. I.
Very happy with the service. Strike team is great. Milly Mbabazi is amazing, such a fantastic agent, always on track with our documents. The mortgage team is also incredible. Mike Szabo and Tony Jackson made the process smooth. They are incredible!
T. F.
I used to be an Estate Agent in the 90's and people buy people.
They buy on their own but the real test of a good agent is after their purchase or sale has been agreed...that's when Strike are streets ahead of their bloated, lazy, 9-5 competition.
I've been impressed from start to finish and I'm fussy!!
Their staff deserve the recognition and praise for a job well done.
I will proactively recommend them to anyone I hear is looking to buy or sell a property.
Thank you for everything.
A. M.
Strike have been absolutely brilliant. When they say we will sell your house for free they really do mean it. From Lewis who posted my property online to Roxanne who kept me informed all the way on progress of sale, the team at Strike are a asset. Thank you Strike, Lewis and Roxanne, you guys are legends
a. w.
So far, so much better than good! We thought we'd give Strike a go, thinking we could revert to a more traditional estate agent if needed. But so far, I have no regrets and nothing but praise for Strike. Alan, our valuer, was brilliant and a pleasure to deal with. The marketing went so well and we have had lots of viewings and offers. In under two weeks, we have accepted an offer, with fantastic support from our negotiator Candice. Communication has been superb. Fantastic service and a great result. Go Strike!
T. H.
The initial booking of the viewing as well as the document signing and identity verification after making the offer were extremely smooth and all done online via easy to use websites. For a first time buyer this made the process a lot less intimidating
F. F.
Strike enabled an easy sale of my property without costing me extra for services I did not need.
I'm certain the supplementary help and support they offer is carried out in a professional manner, but I didn't take advantage of this and was not charged for it either.
Their knowledgeable staff kept me informed of progress at every stage of the process end their professional advice was easy to understand.
J. T.
Just sold my house with Strike, very straightforward from start to finish, less than 4 months from going on the market to completion. I was kept informed of proceedings throughout the process. Edward Voss (Eddie) kept me up to date, he replied to my questions in a very timely manner, I was never kept guessing. A great big thank you to Eddie and the team. I would definitely recommend Strike to friend's and family
S. S.
Fantastic service by Strike. Michael Szabo was very prompt in getting me a mortgage at a good rate and very guick. I approaced Strike after L&C Mortgages wasting my time and saying 'no lender will provide that much based on your income'. Strike easily and quickly arrange for the same loan amount. Thanks to L&C I lost dream home but Strike did a great job.
t. h.
As a seasoned vendor and buyer, this is the first time I’ve used Strike, and I will never be using another estate agent again.
Sold the property in 2 weeks and excellent ongoing support to get the sale pushed through.
Very very impressed! A+
J. S.
Amazed what outstanding customer care Strike show. From start to finish they have exceeded all my expectations, I am honestly overwhelmed by their care, knowledge, support, genuine in every possible way. I am truly telling everyone I can what a fantastic service I received. They make local estate agents look like outdated dinosaurs!
L. E.
Dharminder and Lizzie were a massive help throughout the process. Few hiccups securing a mortgage along the way (not the fault of Strike) and they both kept me informed and gave advice. Excellent for a free service and would recommend to all
c. b.
To cut the the point, Toni and Jemma from the mortgage advisor team have been beyond great. They were always on hand to help, answer questions (no matter how stupid), quick to reply, and even answer the phone when needed. I'll be recommending them to anyone who listens.
M. S.
I can't understand how other estate agents are actually still in business when Strike are offering the same service for free. Good communication from all staff involved with our sale. Saved us a small fortune in estate agency fees. Everyone I tell about Strikes amazing policy can't believe it. We now off to Cuba to celebrate our house sale with the cash we saved win win.
S.
What an absolute pleasure it has been to have Strike sell our house. From the start to the completion, they have stayed in touch and kept us up to date and informed so that we always knew where we were up to. Extra thanks to Eleanor, Kay-Lee and Chris - you three have been absolutely brilliant!!! If you're looking for someone to sell your house - choose Strike! Stevie and Oona
Z. L. S.
Very happy with the service we received from Ajay and Sophie. Ajay was great with communication and helped and informed us throughout the process with anything we needed to know. He went above and beyond to spare his time for us and is also incredibly friendly and down to earth, which is just what you need when going through something as stressful and long a process as buying a house! Thank you for everything.
P. F.
Nothing but praise for Strike polite efficient staff. Whilst I had to take my house of the market because of my personal circumstances. Strike organised several viewings within less than 24 hours. If my circumstances change I would have no hesitation in using Strike.
A. R.
Strike sold our home for free in just a few days and the service has been impeccable! All staff are so friendly, helpful and hard working and they couldn’t do enough for us. Strike you were brilliant, I would definitely recommend all their services.
C. J.
Milli Lake, Strike Sales Progressor has been an absolute star. She is a true asset to the Strike team and I would like to thank her for all her hard work and support throughout the process.
A.
This is the second time I have used Strike for my house sale and was very happy with the service delivered again. Particular mentions go to Beth-Anne Rowley and Lucy Harris who went above and beyond to help push my sale through. Many thanks
C. L.
Adam and team could not have been better..
I am a first time buyer and had a lot of questions. He always responded promptly and with accurate information and genuine advice (which I am discovering is not freely offered by others in the industry throughout this process). Could not recommend more highly.
J. F.
Jenny, ,is a competent sales proggeser with a can do attitude great communication skills.
I must not forget an effective listener she does what she says. I have given her top marks.
Great work Jenny.
G. K.
Have bought and sold several properties over the years and strikes service is outstanding considering there is no cost to the seller or the buyer- I asked every viewer what they thought of the service when they viewed my property and the feedback was always the same- they wished they had used strike when they sold!
L. B.
Terri came to visit our home in Bolton ..she's FAB fab fab, she was super enthusiastic.. payed attention to detail , listened and spent time going over every detail. We are waiting for some personal news but if its positive we will defo be listing with strike. I felt Terri was like a friend by the time she left and she keeps in touch!!!
S. S.

Right from the start Strike's made me feel that I made the correct choice and now i'm at the end they were right, constantly being it touch, letting me know how everything was going and can they help I recommend them for selling your house.
K. R.
From start to finish Strike have been helpful, professional and supportive. They have been on hand to answer any questions and kept both myself and the buyer informed of any developments. I highly recommend Strike.
O. C.
Wayne thank you very much for making this remortgage come true, I do appreciate your great effort and hard work. You are a star and great in your job. Thank you once more and God bless your work.
B. S.
Managing viewings on the app was a game changer, it put me in control and it let me manage offers and gave me the information when I wanted it.
S. K.
We have been pleased with strike, Mae our sales progresser kept us up to date with the sale of our property, and went the extra mile to chase when needed.

Great service. Everything went smoothly. Does everything a high street agent does but without the exorbitant costs.
Thanks to Jacqi for seeing the purchase through.
E. B.
Jan was great and easy to chat to and within minutes had text to say someone will call me back. My kind of servicr
g. r.
Let's start off with the good!
Valuation: great online and fair offer for property!
Photographer: absolutely perfect thank you worth the £500
Viewings: fantastic I had 22 viewings in 4 days had to stop people coming I had at least 10 request after accepting offer aswell!
Negotions: 8 offers and advised to do best and final offers which helped achieve best outcome. However, I know they purposely put me of one buyer has he was not getting any products from them as both had same offer and he already told me he wasn't buying any products from them.
Hard sell: what they don't realised prior to hard sell I was going to use them for moving services however after declining use of solicitor and negotier trying to sell and telling me that's why it's free not a chance took my commission elsewhere thanks! Need to learn the art of selling!
After sale: didn't chase until I called them for update then emailed me to confirm information I had already told them!! Only chased day before completion to see what time set for they didn't need to know information just wanted off books so could close down!
Completion: advise to leave keys with neighbours!! As they are online service! No thanks solicitors handled that.
BUYERS! You don't need to buy a separate survey when you get your mortgage ask for the upgraded valuation from your mortgage company they will charge you a fee to get the full survey and doesn't cost as much as the companies they recommend as they will add a premium to pay for the kick back they give to strike! This also added 8 weeks onto the timescales and really annoyed me as a seller as I had to wait in for twice taking time off for both appointments!
Look at reviews for anyone they recommended and ask them about the comissions (bribes) as you are often pay for them! So tradition local solicitor are often cheaper and more responsive!
Also buyers tell them you will consider everything till you get offer accepted then you are free to go ahead and look for the best option for you
J. B.
A great experience when buying our first property.
Great use of online capabilities throughout, as well as the company using their resources to put you in contact with a range of different services from mortgage broking, insurance etc.
Siobhan Wardle regularly kept us updated throughout the process and provided an excellent service - a credit to the company!
Would use Strike's service when it came to any future property transactions in the future.
L. C.
Couldn't recommend Strike enough! We previously listed our house for sale with a local estate agent and the service was awful, we got no sale and decided to take it off the market and relist with strike.
We enjoyed selling our own house and found it very straightforward - highly recommend doing all your viewings on one day.
After we sold we were put in touch with our sales progressor (Jade Sybray) who was great! Jade was super helpful, got in touch at all the key stages to keep things moving and replied to emails/queries at the speed of light! Would 100% use them again and recommend to a friend. Thanks!

Many Thanks Jody for taking care on the sale process from beginning to end.🤩
L. P.
Fantastic service from start to finish, would highly recommend, lots of updates along the way and plenty of support.

Strike have been very helpful every step of the way. Jacqui Felton was our sales progressor and she was on the ball whenever called upon. I'll always recommend them if an estate agent is required.
D. H.
Strike have been really good overall, they did an excellent Advert and the support from start to finish has been great. We sold our house within a week and are due to complete soon. Mae has been great for the latter end of the process and Terri was amazing for the start getting the house on the market.

Natasha Scott- Strike’s Mortgage Advisor, has been absolutely wonderful in her support throughout my house buying process. She has been consistently professional in her approach and has fully explained the process to me at every stage. Natasha has taken time to reassure me when I have been worried, as a first time buyer this has made all the difference to my experience. I had previously put an offer in on another house, however the survey came back with a number of issues. Natasha took the time to talk it all through with me and also discussed the situation fully with my estate agent. This helped me make an informed choice to pull out of the sale. Natasha then supported me when making an offer on the home I am currently buying, by ensuring my new mortgage in principle was ready the same day. I feel that she went above and beyond in her approach, nothing was too much trouble and she answered all my questions. Natasha is a wonderful asset to the strike team and I can’t thank her enough. I would recommend strike to anybody looking to sell or buy a house. The whole process has been quick and the company are a delight to work with.
Kind Regards
Louise (first time buyer)

From the outset Strike have been fantastic! Initially I dealt with Daniel, one of the managers, was not only very professional and readily available, but he guided me calmly through the process of timing the sale of my property to suit my needs. Thank you! The photography was second to none and brought out the best features of my home. Brilliant job. I next liaised with Mae - who over the past six months - has been professional and patient - and has/is doing an excellent job of navigating the buyers' needs and mine... as I navigated a very difficult time trying to buy a property in a very competitive market! And the price for all this? A snitch of high-street estate agent. Incredible value. The only slight downside is that you don't know who will pick up the phone when you call. Sometimes you get lucky and get through to the agent dealing with your case, but the customer service is great, messages are passed on, and the agent you want to speak to, generally calls back that day.

Got a buyer within 2 weeks with no hard sale to use their other services but I decided to anyway as the quotes were competitive and my way of giving back for the 0% fees. I wondered if there was a catch but there is not. Perhaps the approach is working on our psyche and it is working.
Moving house after 30 years and the transitional process is made is smooth with an easy to use app and updates with all services under one roof.
Great innovative approach for the property industry in the 21st century and I wish them all the luck for the future.
Thanks to the ad campaign during Coronation Street I would have missed it otherwise and gone with the local estate agents.
For anyone who is sceptical, don't be! Would recommend highly!
T. C.
I chose Strike due to there presence in the market. As the fees are low I wasn't expecting the service I received from start to finish. Jade Sybray was a little super star and made sure that I received a weekly update every Friday of were my sale was up to. So Jade thank you so much. Moving is so stressful and you explained everything to me. Strike are lucky to have you.
D. R.
The best estate agent we have ever used. Highly recommend their service. Everyone we dealt with were so friendly and helpful. Special thanks to Nick Lodge, our Sales Progressor, who guided us through the sale with expert knowledge and endless patience. He made the whole process much easier than than we expected. Thank you all. Keith and Dorothy
L. H.
Siobhan at strike was very helpful as our sales progressor. The sale took longer than expected but that was to no fault of Siobhan as the delay was due to solictors and the land registry in relation to the previous sale transaction. She rang and chased the sellers solictors and both the previous sale transaction solictors at our request and kept us updated. Thank you Siobhan, all your hard work is much appreciated!
C. D.
Claire and the team at Strike have been so helpful throughout the whole buying process. They have been easy to get hold of and always polite and friendly. I have already started recommending Strike to friends and family. Thank you for everything.
P. H.
Excellent service. Agent Zoe valued our house on Sunday afternoon. By 9pm same day the advert was done and listed on zoopla, rightmove , prime location etc. 3 days later we sold. The app Is easy to use and all other admin staff kept us informed. I would use this agent again and highly recommend them
E. H.
I have had a very good experience of moving home using Strike and would very much recommend using their services. My sales progressor Megan Hewitt has been particularly helpful, from when my buyer was first interested until completion. Megan always gets back to you as soon as possible with any updates , in a friendly and efficient manner, which is so helpful in such a stressful experience as moving house can prove to be.
V. S.
Lesson Baker worked really hard for us to make our house move as smooth as possible, very helpful getting answers and updates for us. We are very pleased that we chose strike and would definitely recommend them.
g. s.
The whole team at Strike were brilliant with my house sale, from the valuation to completion. I especially had great support from Leeson Baker who dealt with the progression of my house sale from start to finish. Leeson always replied to my emails promptly and ensured there was clear communication between the solicitors on both sides, which in turn helped complete my house sale smoothly. Thank you!!
A. P.
Just completed on our first home and Strike where brilliant. Jonny our sales progression contact was excellent through the purchase. Chasing both sets of solicitors and constantly giving us updates.
c. M.
My house sold less than 24 hours after listing. It sold at the full asking price, and the Strike valuation was £10-15K above the three other established local estate agents.
Communications was first rate and everything was managed through the great app. I could even see how many search hits the house was getting.
Best of all, I didn't have to pay anything.... Totally Free!!!
A. G.
I'm very happy with the service provided by Mel Flack Sales Progressor.She was very professional and always responded in a timely manner, exceeding my expectations.
I would highly recommend her services to any of my family and friends.
D. R.
Michelle Ashton dealt with our sale of our property. We found her very informative and helpful regarding the smooth running of the property sale. She responded to all our queries and I feel all our needs were met by Michelle.
C. N.
I will rate 5 stars to Strike Financial Services. I really appreciate the excellent services from Bhavini Shah and Janine Aves and for tremendous help. A very big thank you to Bhavini and Janine. I will always recommend them to anyone buying/selling the house.
M. R. S.
My husband and I have had such an easy and FREE experience with Strike. Hats off to Leigh Rutter and Barry Rylance for steller service. Can't recommend this company enough for first time buyers.
P. B.
Very pleased with Siobhan Wardle at Strike. She has helped relieve our worries over our house sale and keeps us updated every step of the way, by reassuring us, when we need it. As it is over 36 years since we last moved, it feels really daunting, to be back on the housing market, but, we know that we are in professional and capable hands. No regrets whatsoever on choosing Strike for our house move.
M. Z.
We have used Strike to sell our residence for FREE. Whole process didn't cost us a penny comparing to other Estate agents. I will recommend their service to all I know. Thanks Rebecca and Jade.
M. B.
I found Strike to be excellent with their customer service. Comms were top notch throughout and they genuinely want to help even if you're not taking add-on services (which are not pushed hard at all - they're very respectful with their approach).
Saved me £2.5k and made the process largely effortless. Big thanks to all - highly recommended.
P. S.
Would just like to say thank you to Megan Broad for all her help and professionalism with the sale of Denton Terrace.
Megan kept us fully informed and updated throughout sale.
Good communicator.

Melanie Flack was amazing and very dedicated and very professional. I would highly recommend Strike to anyone - amazing service. Many thanks Melanie.
M. P.
Easy to work with, The website and app were great and having direct contact with the buyer helped move things along quicker. Customer service was great and true to their word it was entirely free. No hard sell on the products they refer. I would definitely recommend.
E. W.
Mae has been amazing throughout all of our selling process. Constantly chasing up different people and always keeping in contact and keeping us up to date. Thank you so much.
P. H.
I would highly recommend strike as a estate agent, been brilliant from start to finish especially my agent Siobhan Wardle, She was fantastic! Always got back to me right away and no problem to big. Thank you Siobhan for all your help and making a stressful situation less stressful. 5 stars
E. C.
From the first visit we felt comfortable with the valuation and the package options open to us without any hard sell. As we still had a lot of clearing we decided we should just list for six weeks and then upgrade after that when the house would photograph better.
However, we literally sold in 3 weeks, and genuinely for FREE.
Helpful, responsive and proactive - A new type of estate agent, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!
S. A.
I sold a property through Strike and the Customer Service I received was excellent - we were supported and kept updated throughout. Strike went above and beyond our expectations. I would recommend Strike to all my friends and family - thank you
A. F.
Shona Rooney at Strike has been an absolute pleasure to speak with; she is genuine and does not put you under any pressure to make a decision. We felt at ease speaking with her throughout the process. Thank you very much, and best wishes for the future.
A. B.
I used strike Mortgage team, Mrs Bhavini Shah and Janine. The duo helped and kept us in loop all the time. I am going to use their help again. Really good service and helpful. Well done.
R. W.
Sold and bought through strike. Very good service. Thank you
J. R.
My purchase was completed in 10 weeks. Great job and a great company!
S. J.
Good service all round, from all members of the conveyancing team and estate agents. Kept up to date throughout the process and all my queries responded to very quickly. Would definitely recommend.
D. J.
Said they would sell my house for free and they did. Benjamin Blakey and Beth Crosbie were really helpful - thank you for all your help with the sale!
G. Y.
Excellent service, from estate agent through to mortgage offer. Professional friendly service from Ajay and Megan.THANK YOU
J. K.
From beginning to end Strike have always kept me well informed and made the process of selling a house as easy as possible.
Megan at Strike has been superb and always went the extra mile to make sure things went as smoothly as possible.
A. P.
Saved us thousands! Less then £500 to sell our house whereas other estate agents wanted £3k+!!
The app was brilliant and meant that viewings could be made outside of traditional office hours (including weekends which suited us more!!) so more convenient for everyone!
The mortgage team we then dealt with were AMAZING!! James B in particular was fantastic and made the process seamless from start to finish! I’ve given him 3 referrals already because they’re brilliant! Cannot rate highly enough!!
A. H.
Strike were brilliant throughout the whole, lengthy process of selling my home, for free.
Each call I had to make, staff were friendly and helpful and always happy to chase up my buyer or their solicitors when required.
I will always recommend them to anyone selling their home.
A. E.
I can highly recommend Strike at a difficult time and after issues with our first buyers Strike and the staff assigned to us were on hand to assist and push the process along even interviening when the Solicitors on both sides were procrastinating and having their own problems. Anita our sales advisor was outstanding. We also had a vast amount of visits easily managed through the strike system on both occasions that the house was on the market. I will definately recommend their services.
V. S.
Strike were absolutely amazing from start to finish. Everyone I spoke to was very attentive, knowledgeable and really cared. From the valuation via WhatsApp, the sales negotiator, the sales progressor and the financial advisor. I really liked that there was no cloak and dagger 'can't tell you what the offer is'. It was so simple, those who were wanting to buy our house knew about the other offers and were able to put in an offer knowing what the others were.
Will definitely be using Strike when we next move. They're the best agents we've dealt with, hands down!
C. B.
We were first time buyers using Strike. We used their mortgage advice service and most of the other services they offered, to be truthful and they have been more than helpful. Steph & Claudia were our two main contacts and were both responsive and managed to make a stressful process seem much easier. Would recommend.
N. H.
Fantastic service! I am really happy with the service provided to me by Strike and in particular James Brown. He was really professional and helpful, and gave me great advice relating to mortgages and the process. James responded really quickly to me (even if it was later on in the day when most companies would have long closed) and adhered to any appointment times arranged. The mortgage offers he found for me were tailored to my needs and and he showed a real understanding of my preferences and concerns throughout the process. James was quick to get things moving for me and from submitting my mortgage application, I had a mortgage offer within 5 days! I also had dealings with Jon Welling who was really professional and again quick to respond to any queries I had making the process feel very easy and seamless.
I was really impressed with the service I received and look forward to using Strike in the future when changes need to be made to my mortgage. I would highly recommend them to others.
A. L.
Our mortgage advisor Joe was very professional and extremely helpful. He explained all products to us so we could make an informed decision on which product to use. He was completely transparent, honest and very helpful ensuring that the process was completed without any hassle. I would definitely use the service again.
A. K.
Jonathan at Strike been very helpful and great to find our first mortgage. I am very happy with the service I received from him, he helped us in every stage of our mortgage process and got us a very good deal. Thank you very much. Highly recommended.
J. O.
Despite not purchasing a property through Strike (I did have a viewing on one of their properties), they were still happy to give me free mortgage advice and sort out my application process which was a great weight off my shoulders. They were very efficient, quick and responsive and the team of James, Jon and Claudia worked really well and were always on hand (whatever the time) to give me constant updates on the application and fix any potential issues. I couldn't recommend them enough and will certainly use them in the future now when coming to market my property or remortgage as they have shown that their customer service is exemplary!
B. S.
Have used Strike before and happy to have used them again- money saved and Suzie proactive thanks
E. J.
Online estate agent with a human feel. I had conversations with people throughout the purchase, who I felt were knowledgeable and sensitive. Especially Siobhan Wardle and Jack Wilson. Buying a home is deeply personal, complicated and stressful. It’s never going to be plain sailing. But these feel like capable and no-fuss hands.
R. C.
After initially being skeptical about the whole "free" claim, I'm so glad i decided to use strike. They came round when agreed, took great photos, created the listing and using their app i was easily able to arrange multiple viewings and had an accepted an offer for my full asking price within a week. They have kept me informed when my solicitors and onward estate agents haven't and have indeed carried out their service completely free. Thanks!
D. I.
Each step of the sale had an appointed agent, all of whom were very knowledgeable and helpful and made contact with us immediately to introduce themselves. Even when we had issues with the buyer the team were incredibly helpful.
The process was easy from start to finish in terms of Strike's help and availability and we had a very difficult sale due to buyer (Not the agent's fault).
We would definitely recommend Strike and would use them again in the future.
T. N.
Experienced Strike as a buyer. The Hub is really useful as it gives quick access to the Vendor to ask questions & check any queries. Advisor Melanie Flack was quick to respond & never seemed to have a day off.
n.
James and Claudia were amazing. They were so helpful, reliable and knowledgable. They clearly communicated every step of the process, making the experience seamless and smooth. I can not speak more highly of the service they provided. We would definitely use strike again for our next mortgage.
R. ..
Very professional! Simon was our broker and he was great. We highly recommend them and few of our friends also started their application with Simon. Amazing service! Thank you
n.
We found strike to be outstanding however our experience was marred by Premier property lawyers failure to communicate after their cyber attack. We'd recommend strike, we most certainly wouldn't recommend premier proprry lawyers, even now we are having serious communication problems with them
A. M.
Leigh Rutter has been been an amazing mortgage advisor. She has made my process of attaining a mortgage as a first time buyer a breeze. She always kept me informed and acted very efficiently. I would highly recommend Strike and Leigh Rutter for the homebuying process.
O. K.
I would like to take the opportunity to recommend Strike company for everybody who plans to buy or to sell a house. They created completely new level of service that includes not only assistance in you purchase/sale but they also provide all range of services that help you to move. They will set your bills, will provide moving service and will even do such a big job like getting a mortgage offer with the best deal for you. The most important that all services they provide are absolutely free for you!
I would like to mention a Mortgage Adviser Michael Szabo and a Senior Case Owner Annie-May Cooney from Strike Mortgage department. They found the best mortgage deal for me and prepared my application in just 2 days! We applied on Friday and and I got my mortgage offer next week on Tuesday! It shows their very professional work with big attention to all requirements in preparing good application. Besides all of that it was a real pressure to communicate with Michael and Annie-May, they are very professional, friendly and helpful. Good luck to everybody in buying your dream house and the company Strike will be a great choice for you!
G. G.
I could not have asked for a better company for customer service. From the start to the finish of the sale it was made so much easier by the professionalism of all involved. We went through a difficult time with my mum dying during the sale proceedings, however the staff at Strike kept both myself and the purchasers up to date during the probate application. I would highly recommend to anyone the services of Strike.
A. G.
Fantastic service from Strike - I sold my house at a much higher price than what other estate agents proposed, and the whole process was super smooth and pleasant. Would certainly recommend it!
B. W.
Myself and my partner cannot thank the team at Strike enough for helping us secure our mortgage, they were very friendly and approachable, Simon and Jessica were amazing!
L. H.
Heather at strike has been very helpful with our requests this week! Our quick sale has unfortunately turned out to be a complicated one due to legal documents held by the previous solictors when our seller originally bought. Heather chased the previous solictors promptly and got back to us that same day. She understood our personal circumstances and urgency in moving into the property and suggested solutions wherever possible. Thank you Heather!
J. G.
James agreed to look into our situation with the view of obtaining a mortgage even though our situation was more complicated than the average. We had been rejected by multiple brokers and had been told that we would not be able to get a mortgage at present. James' deep understanding and experience was evident as he was able to approach the lender he thought would be able to help us and he was right! we have now received a mortgage offer and are very happy with the outcome! James and his team have been very responsive and professional throughout. They worked swiftly to ensure our mortgage application was processed as quickly as possible. Thank you!
R.
Megan Hewitt was in charge of the sale. She was very professional and we couldn’t have done it without her. The full Strike team was very helpful and organised. I would recommend to everyone to choose strike.
K. R.
I could not fault the service and professionalism of Jenna and Toni at Strike.
Everything was easy to do and was explained clearly to us. As first time buyers we were new to the whole thing and a lot of it was confusing and overwhelming, but we felt Jenna gave us clarity and was happy to answer any questions we had. And not having to worry about the cost is just another reason why Strike are great for anyone looking for mortgage advice, but particularly first time buyers. Thank you!
I. G.
A big thank you to Millie Lake who has been outstanding in keeping me regularly updated on progress. It has been a pleasure to deal with Millie, her polite and positive telephone manner has really helped to reassure me and my Dad during what, at times, has been quite a stressful process for us as a family. Today, Millie called me to confirm that exchange had taken place and that the move on Thursday this week would now go ahead, just what we needed to hear.
Thank you once again Millie, I am sure you will continue to go from strength to strength within your organisation, keep up the great work!

Adam and his team are great. Efficient and responsive, and helped smooth out a couple of unexpected bumps. Adam is very knowledgeable, gave me considered guidance, and was a real pleasure to speak with. Would definitely recommend him and the team.
A. M.
The team at Strike have been great, really helpful as first time buyers to explain the process. We could contact them anytime and they would respond promptly, nothing was to much trouble. Thank you for helping us buy our first home.
A. S.
Joana and Johnny were very helpful. A great all round experience. Saved loads of money and will Definitely use again if I sell my house again.
Why pay thousands to high street estate agents when you don't have to? This really is an excellent company.
Thankyou Strike!
s. m.
I was recommended to contact Adam White, when applying for my first mortgage. Adam's advice along with Marianne Manfredi has been first rate all the way through the process. They are extremely helpful and go further than the extra mile. Absolutely brillant.
T. R.
Good communication and very responsive throughout each stage of my recent purchase with them.
The Sales progressor Leeson Baker has been particularly helpful.
M. D.
We have been incredibly lucky to have Jenna Palfreeman and her team as our Mortgage advisor.
She has worked meticulously and tirelessly to get us the best possible deal on our mortgage. She has been fantastic from day one. She was open and honest about the whole process and what it would involve.
She has kept us updated and even when we were unsure about certain aspect, she was able to answer our questions and reassure us through the process.
The emails were always answered and she was prompt with all communications.
Jenna has gone above and beyond our expectations of a mortgage advisor and we would highly recommend her to friends and family without a doubt!
Thank you so much for all the hard work.
Best mortgage advisor ever!!!
Maria and Arturas
L. O.
Amazing! They were fab when we sold our house - we had viewings booked up immediately, everything was handled through the app and the staff along the way were beyond helpful. Julie our negotiator was so patient with us and really helped us get the best price we could.
K. R.
A very efficient helpful service from the whole team. My valuation was accurate, my sale was quick and dealt with very profesionally.
I honestly didn't pay a penny to them and their service was second to none. Carly Dixon our sales negotiator was especially helpful and went over and above for me when I encountered a problem with my onward purchase (through a different estate agent)
She went the extra mile to help me overcome somthing that was very stressful at the time. I would certainly recommend this Estate agent.
P. W.
Fast and efficient service. I was kept informed at every stage of the process. The added bonus was it was free
j. w.
Great service and Mae Lake has been brilliant assisting with the delays I've experienced with solicitors and has supported me every step of the way so thank you to her
K. B.
Siobhan Wardle has been who we’ve been in touch with. She went above and beyond to resolve a sticky situation. She was amazing and I would recommend her to anybody and everybody.
A. K.
Strike is a STAR!
Specifically the financial services.
I interacted with James Brown who was super responsive, very patient through the long engagement periods till we finally had our offer accepted.
The magic he & his team (Claudia White & Jon Welling) did in the background was amazing. They promised a timeline of 2-3 weeks & over delivered on it by 66%. The total turnaround was 6 days.
I have no words to describe how great and stress free the whole application process has been for us.
Cherry on the cake - Strike has all their charges attributed to the lending banks & we have been very thankful for this level of service at virtually no cost to us.
Would surely recommend James, Claudia & Jon to anyone who is looking to avail financial services. You WILL NOT be disappointed.
s. p.
Cant fault Strike. I had full choice and control of how to market my property. Super cheap and a service and professionalism that was second to none. A absolute delight to deal with and never stop to help you
M. S. I.
We received help with our mortgage from Strike. James was our first point of contact and he was extremely detailed about whole process.
In our first conversation, he informally collected some information over the phone and gave us a rough idea about what kind of interest rate I could get. He was able to gain my confidence after our first conversation, so I decided to send over my documents to him and he quickly scheduled a second appointment, where he patiently (took around 2 hours) explained me the whole process.
I am just amazed with the pace. From just getting advice to getting our hands on the mortgage offer was incredible fast. I would definitely recommend them to my friends and use their service again in future.
J. B.
I would definitely recommend Strike. This is our third house purchase and the first with Strike.Communication and everything to do with our sale was far better with them than past estate agents.Many thanks
D. S.
Fantastic support from James Brown and Claudia from start to finish. After having problems with our mortgage company James stepped in and sorted everything for us and kept us updated every step of the way. We would highly recommend the service. Thank you James and Claudia, we really appreciate all your hard work.
J. A.
Strike mortgage advisor’s have been a very responsive, professional and understanding team with Jonathan being a great help with every step of buying my first home. I look forward to using there services again on any future purchases.
D. C.
The best mortgage advisors out there! James and Claudia were brilliant throughout getting me my first mortgage. They explain everything clearly and in detail. They worked really hard behind the scenes and always kept me in the loop with what was happening. I would recommened Strike to everyone and will definitely be using them again in the future.
J. O.
Brilliant service! Absolutely no charges I took all the pictures myself and uploaded them to their website. I also did all the viewings myself. I had 4 offers in a week and sold my house in the same week for the full asking price. Strike contacted the buyers to negotiate for me and communicated back to me. I couldn't be more happy. I used their conveyancing service as it was also the cheapest quote I could find! Thank you strike highly recommended
H. A.
Joseph and Mollie made the process of getting a mortgage easy.
G. M.
Painless, and preferred by both us as the seller and the buyers who came to view our property. No unnecessary fees, no agents that know nothing about the property. We were able to manage the process and communicate with buyers seamlessly through the platform. Highly recommend.
L. S.
We sold with STRIKE - no fee - no fuss just excellent customer service. The whole experience was stress-free. Great service, very responsive and would highly recommend. We also used Strike conveyancing which was also a great experience from beginning to end. The eway portal makes the whole process so transparent and you can see the conveyancing process and the milestones reached. They warned us that completion may take 20 weeks (due to the pressures in the industry from the stamp duty holiday) but we completed in 10.5 weeks.
L. w.
Ioni has been an absolute star and has made the whole process of applying for the mortgage so easy and straightforward. Everything has been dealt with so efficiently and we have received such a friendly service. Ioni has been on hand to answer any of our questions and has explained the whole process so well that even we could understand! We have been receiving responses so quickly too we have never had to wait around or chase anything up as everything has been kept on top of by Ioni and Charlotte. We are so grateful to both of them and would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a mortgage broker.
C. B.
As first time buyers, we were incredibly nervous and lacked knowledge of where to start with our mortgage. From the very beginning Ioni at Strike was professional, welcoming and was practically at our beck and call. She was able to answer any questions we had, no matter what time of the day! This level of professionalism was maintained throughout the process leaving us with a mortgage offer which suited us perfectly! Charlotte was also a fantastic help and reassured us by giving us regular updates.
Ioni & Charlotte are a team of absolute angels. We owe them everything and more. I would have no qualms when recommending them to any of my friends and family. A very big thank you! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
D. B.
Both Jessica and Melissa have been superb with our mortgage (on both occassions) our first house purchase fell through unfortunately but they worked their socks off finding us our best deals. Luckily the second time round was straight forward but again both were very responsive, kept us informed throughout and were just fantastic!!!
M. D.
Great experience thanks to Debbie and Barry both have been very helpful and dealt with my impatience at times.
Thank you both.
S. P.
Strike's mortgage advice team were great! James Brown and team were super helpful and guided us through every stage of the mortgage process. As first time buyers we were reassured by their professionalism and prompt service.
M. B.
Absolute amazing assistance received from Jenna and Jessica alike. Would not have been able to do it without them. Super helpful, thorough and always thinking of the customer to get them the best deal! Cannot recommend enough. All for free! Unbelievable! Thank you for your support and efforts ladies! Keep up the hard work and all the best in future! Michelle and Chris! X
A. M.
Thanks prince .it's bean good to av u on board 😀😀
P. O.
I thought Strike worked well throughout the whole process and would definitely use them again. Well done guys, great coms made it easy to sell
D. S.
I was very pleasantly surprised with the professional service I received form Strike and sold my house quickly. With it being a free service I was quite skeptical, but the service I recieved exceeded my expectations. The online strike hub is really good and being able to view and organise your viewings and see your offers on your phone or laptop is excellent. All the negotiaters I spoke to on the phone seemed young but were all very professional/couteous and seemed well trained. The hard sell I was expecting, to buy other services did not really materialise either which was good. Overall I would highly recomend the Strike option over the expensive highstreet options.
A. S.
I spoke to a few agencies this week but this one is the best so far. Emilia is so nice and helpful which makes this stressful process of buying a property much easier. Very professional and answers every question. When you speak to her you feel that she really wants to help you to get the property best for you not just to tick the box on the list. Thank you.
r. B.
This is the type of service you want from any service provider company! Highly recommend them.
My husband and I can't thank Ioni Hornsby enough for getting us through not only during the mortgage application but even anything house related queries! Nothing is too small for her and when there was something urgent we needed she was on the case as soon as she could. Her support didn't end when we got our mortgage application approved. Charlotte Godding was there to support us too which is just great as we know we could count on both of them when we needed help or have queries. Thanks again for such an amazing service!
K. B.
We didn’t choose Strike for their low fees (that was just a happy bonus!), but because we wanted to control how we sold our house. Strike’s ‘buffet style’ option meant we could pick and choose what services we wanted to pay for, and which we wanted to do ourselves. As tech savvy and fairly outgoing people, we actually enjoyed writing our own property description, taking our own photos and hosting our own viewings. All our viewers also commented that they preferred to be shown round by the owner as they could gets answers ‘from the horse’s mouth’, and I think this is why we were able to get 3 offers in the first 24 hours of marketing. We loved the online portal and how easy it was to use. Would definitely use Strike again.

Charlie and the team at Strike are amazing, true professional service with all the important updates communicated in good time and nothing too much trouble with any requests.
Thanks again for the smooth ride!
S. A.
I am very impressed with customer service i have recieved from Kevin Jeevaruthnam from strike and very happy about the service thanks to Kevin's excellent customer service skills
E. W.
We have been really impressed with the service at Strike, they have obviously come up with an excellent business model for an estate agent which does not charge excessive fees to the seller. We felt entirely secure, informed and in control of the sale of our house, we've never sold a house before and it was so much less stressful than we anticipated.
d. s.
Excellent experience so far. Customer service is spot on.
R. M.
The team at Strike are professional and courteous and nothing is too much trouble for them. Even after your house has sold they continue to support you. You would not think this service is free. We have moved house many times now and never had an estate agent service so professional. Well done Strike!
T. T.
The best agent I've ever dealt with. They really went above and beyond every step of the way and I have recommended Strike to everyone thinking of selling. After dealing with high street agents who are not available at the weekends and are often too busy to get back to you, it was a breath of fresh air to have Strike take the initiative to keep me updated at every stage and if the person I wanted was busy, they would get back to me. Fantastic communication and first class service. Selling a house is so stressful but it was by far the easiest agent I've dealt with when selling, thank you.
A. O.
excellent but they don't put room measurements on the house details
L. B.
Brilliant service from start to finish. Outstanding customer service, very proactive and very fast. Communicated really well, and without any attempt at trying to sell me any additional services. I honestly can't rate Strike any higher, I literally sold my house for FREE!
A. M.
I bought my first home through Strike. Loved the simplicity of the digital hub, all the staff where beyond helpful, the free mortgage advisor service was ideal. If I ever come to selling a house, I 100 percent will with strike, its so much easier than other agencies we dealt with.
M. F.
I would use Strike again. They would be top of my list for selling a property due to zero fees and the excellent service I received after my property was sold STC. I did not feel service was lacking because it was free.
A.
Ioni and Charlotte have been incredible throughout my process so far. No matter how many questions I have, they are both onboard to answer and assist. They have both continuously acted professional and supportive. I have really enjoyed the process. I couldn’t have asked for anyone better to assist me with my mortgage application. I wish I could give more than 5 stars for the service I have received. Thank you both so much for everything you have done.

(Mortgage Adviser) Strike were excellent from start to finish, sorting out our mortgage and insurances for our new home. Our mortgage adviser, Steph, was friendly and extremely helpful, supporting us each step of the way, as did our mortgage case owner Claudia (Jon also helping us out at the start). A great free service, finding us great deals and making the process nice and easy.

I was very apprehensive finding a solicitor etc as this was my first time buying. Strike was recommended by the estate agents as the seller was also using strike throughout. From the get go, everything was explained and i felt comfortable to ask questions, even if they seemed silly to ask. I knew i could always contact the estate agent/conveyancer at any time and would always receive a reply or a phone call to talk me through things. The communication and app (both estate agent and conveyancing apps) were so good and very very helpful! I loved how i was able to message the seller when i wanted and it felt less stressful and so much easier than i anticipated. It gives me hope in the future if i ever think to move home again, that i know to go with Strike based off my experience this time and i know things wont be as stressful as i could have been if i had gone else where. I have sang Strike’s praises with family and friends! I would recommend to anyone!!
C. M.
I have dealt with several staff. All have been good - polite, helpful.
The three things I like most about Strike are :-
1. Anytime you call them, they ALWAYS answer the phone - there is always a human being there.
2. There is genuinely NO FEE for selling and advertising your property.
(They do offer other services which is how they survive financially.)
3. Because you are able to edit the website yourself, you can be right "at the helm" of your own sale.
A good experience all round!
P. R.
Very good, thought it was too good to be true to sell your house for free but I can confirm it wasn’t. It was completely free and I didn’t use any of the other services offered so all I had to pay was my own solicitor. The total cost from start to finish was just £500 to my Conveyancing solicitor and nothing to strike.
C. C. S.
Strike were professional from that start of my sale to the end of my purchase. Keeping me updated at every opportunity, chasing outstanding enquiries and going above and beyond to keep or sale and purchase on track. A fantastic company who I’d have no hesitation recommending. THANK YOU.
k.
We are very pleased with the service provided by Strike in selling our house. We would use them again in any future transactions.
D. G.
Strike have been spot-on for looking after our house move so far. James and Jon have been outstanding for the mortgage application and getting that pushed through - explaining everything in detail which has been a blessing for us who have never sold before. In addition, the estate agent we had, through to negotiations and sale progression, have all been exceptional - all through Strike. Highly recommend!
W. L.
My mortgage advisor Jenna Palfreeman and her assistant Toni were very prompt on dealing with the mortgage application. Thanks for their help we’ve obtained the best deal— a lot better than our own bank’s.
Thank you Jenna and Toni for the effort in helping us with the application!
M. H.
Estate agent and in app experience were great
M. H. A.
I would highly recommend using Strike as your agents, from start to finish they have provided excellent service and dealt with any enquiries that were put their way. Melanie has been extremely helpful and always there to respond to me and my questions or queries. I can’t thank her or Strike enough.
M. I.
James Brown and his colleagues at Strike have helped us with two mortgage applications now. They did a great job and both offers were agreed without a hitch. We felt confident we were in safe hands throughout the process, with good attention to detail and clear desire a to understand of our financial needs and address them.
E. M.
I have found Strike mortgage support to be an excellent service. I felt that Stephanie and Jon always had my best interests at heart and I really appreciated their honest and helpful advice and support when reviewing our options.
They have made the process of applying for a mortgage as smooth and straight forward as possible with no hard selling and regular updates and follow ups to help push things along for us whilst keeping us updated. Thank you both for all of your help and support.
The whole strike experience has been refreshing, and a much improved estate agent experience so I will be recommending them to friends and family who decide to sell in the future. As a seller it is great being able to control timings of viewings and contact viewers directly to make arrangements at any time of the day in order to make sure you don't miss out on any interest. As a buyer, I have found it so frustrating having to ring up lots of different estate agents to arrange a viewing and waiting for them to come back to me and confirm the time. It seems so long winded now I am used to Strike.
L. F.
I can't praise them enough. I sold my house for free and also used the legal service they recommend which meant that I paid no estate agent fees at all. I thought it sounded too good to be true at first but after realising how it works found it to be the most simple of services. I had only one niggle at the start and that was during COVID the person pricing up the property was full of a cold and did come across a bit salesy. I knew more about the area than he did and he was not local but when a service is free what more can you expect. Once the ball was rolling I dealt with other staff and also negotiated the price myself as I was in a better position to understand the situation than the agent, although they would have done this for me.
C. M.
Fantastic Service, start to finish. I only opted for the free package and had my reservations, but I found them to be more focussed on my needs than any estate agent I have ever used before. Why would you not use Strike if you are looking for a no-frills sale? I saved £2,000 and the process was seamless.
f. w.
When I saw a sign saying sell for free I thought there must be a catch however having completed our sales process I can confirm we sold for free it was trouble-free being able to arrange our own appointments take our own photographs and yet at every point of the way there was a professional at the end of the phone to help.
Thank you strike how I believe selling a house should be!
L. H.
A really good experience using Strike who made selling my home a simple and straight forward process.
Listing my house for sale was very easy, the agent was very professional in their work and even when I wasn't happy with some of the initial photos taken, Strike were more than accomodating in changing these for me.
Their online portal was intuitive to use and allowed me to manage my listing and viewings easily, and also accept an offer on the house (which sold within a week of listing!).
My sale was delayed due to the covid situation which meant I was unable to complete the sale in line with original dates as the house I was buying was also delayed, but Strike did an amazing job in negotiating an extension to the completion date with the buyer and they kept me up to date with any discussions taking place.
A truly great experience with Strike and I would use them again without a second thought.
K. T.
The people that dealt with my house purchase at Strike were amazing. I thought it would be stressful and they made it feel like a walk in the park. Very helpful and genuinely nice people to talk to. Incredible team.
R. J.
Ioni was excellent helping us with our mortgage! She was always available to help with any queries and was very open and helpful throughout the whole process. I would certainly recommend her to anybody, she was extremely fast at responding to the emails and always kept us informed!
Thank you very much
R. T.
We've just bought our first home!
The service we've received from Jade Sybray has been stunning from start to finish.
S. T.
Barbara won my trust from the first minute of our first appointment. She explained everything with much detail and she clearly changed the way I was seeing things as a first time buyer. She was always there to advice me and most importantly to support me whenever I needed her. Even when I was disappointed after a rejection of an offer, she was there to speak to me and support me first of all and then advice me for the next move. She answered all the questions I had, even if there were simple or not. She was always looking for the right deal for me and handle everything very smooth. Also, Andrew handled my mortgage application and always kept me updated with everything. His professionalism was visible from the first minute as he handled some complex issues about me and I couldn’t have asked for a better person to do it. He was always in contact with me and generally we had a good communication all the 3 of us. He took the stress from me and handled everything.
Barbara deserves to be rewarded for her work. She is the most helpful, friendly , and caring person I met. We spent hours on the phone talking about the process and she always made sure that something is right for me before we proceed further. If you are especially first time buyer, you should definitely ask for Barbara and Andrew to handle your mortgage application. It’s the best team.
J. B.
Strike were great but the Premiere Property Lawyers (PPL) not so good.
PPL had an IT issue towards the end of 2021 which doesn't reflect we on Strike. In general , I would shop with Strike again but would not use PPL for my lawyers.
All other services arranged by Strike were good and speedy (survey , bills forwarding)
A.
Strike have made the process of buying a home simple. I'm especially grateful to Michael, Annie-May, and Natasha for their help in securing our mortgage. It is a company I will use again in the future without second thought.
J. H.
I cannot rate Louise highly enough, nothing was too much trouble and I was kept informed of events at every step of the way. Louise went over and above to ensure that our sale went smoothly. What a little star!
K. J.
We had a great experience using strike for their mortgage advice service. James was extremely knowledgeable and helpful and was able to answer any questions we had. All in all a great service, we're very pleased with the outcome.
M. R.
It was a pleasure to work with STRIKE which helped me to sell my house. We only communicate over the phone or mail but everything went smoothly from the beginning to the end. Always there for me to help, answer the question or resolve the problem. I would always recommend them to my family or friends. Well done STRIKE!
s. w.
Had a great experience with Strike, they couldn’t be more helpful with everything and super easy to contact when ever I was having any issues. Would highly recommend
E. B.
I couldn't of had a better experience with Strike. Me and my partner were first time buyers and strike were so helpful and kind and guided us through the whole process, making things so much easier and less stressful. I couldn't recommend them more!
E. S.
Great Price and amazing service. It was one of the most frustrating sales ever (due to solicitor issues in the buying chain) and strike went above and beyond what was expected to help us deal with this. We honestly would have given up moving if it wasn't for them and in particularly Naomi. Cannot recommend them enough. We are not planning on moving anytime soon, but when we next do, we will definitely be using them again.
L. L.
I dealt with Ajay, Archie and Charlotte and each one helped me through every step, giving me advice and guidance ultimately resulting in me saving money and getting the best deal.
I will definitely be using this service again and have already recommended to friends who are getting on the property ladder.
S. W.
An all round fantastic service. We worked specifically with Charlotte and Ioni. They were super helpful, caring, kind, professional and persistent (with our lender where needed). I would highly recommend them to anyone. Thank you so much for your help. We are so grateful.
K. R.
We worked with James and Claudia to set up financing for our new home. They were amazing and so helpful all the way through the process. James took us through everything necessary, step by step and Claudia handled some of the chasing up and keeping us well informed. We would recommend Strike to anyone who is buying or selling their house.
B. J.
I am currently finishing buying my first house. Jonathan and the rest of the team were amazing at their job and answered all of my questions.
Would definitely recommend and will definitely use again in the future.
C. P.
The selling process with Strike/Housesimple including the solicitor they recommended was seamless, we had no issues. The on line solicitor E-Way dashboard was a simple fast efficient way to sell our house and buy our new one. The weekly calls from both the estate agent and the solicitor were very reassuring and kept us up to date through the complete process.
L. M.
They were fantastic from start to finish.What a great service and totally free too.Have recommended them to a colleague at work and will continue to recommend them to anyone I know
A. W.
In my experience the approach Strike takes works really well. In my opinion a great opportunity to save on some of the costs of moving. The team at Strike (Millie etc) were always really helpful.
L. S.
Really happy with the service received from James, Claudia and Jon. Really responsive, helped us get a great mortgage deal and kept us informed. Any questions and queries were replied to quickly and we received excellent customer service. Thank you.
P. H.
Fantastic service, brilliant staff
K. S.
Throughout the whole process of purchasing our property through Strike, the staff were so helpful. There were barely any wait times when trying to get through to speak to someone and every member of staff was able to help. One particular member of staff, was so attentive and really made the process of purchasing our home less stressful. Our solicitors weren't great and were so bad at keeping us up to date and the only person who kept us in the loop was Anita. She really went above and beyond to help us with the purchase and I cannot thank her enough for all of her help.
R. F.
Megan Broad was brilliant she was relentless in getting the job done, thank you so much you are amazing 🤩
F. E.
Very helpful team! I appreciate the support received during our purchase.
S. K.
Great service from initial valuation, through sale (we upgraded to premium package - £499 total), negotiations to move management. You get a specialist advisor at each point. We used Strike's conveyancing and financial services too.
J. S.
Used Strike as mortgage advisors and they have been utterly brilliant so far
Would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a mortgage advisor. I haven't used any of their other services yet but if they are as good as their mortgage advising then they will be the best in the game
C. J.
Strike were simply superb from start to finish. Everything was smooth and each member of staff informative. There was no pressure to buy add ons and would not go with anyone else again when selling a property..
N. B.
Sold my property through Strike, great customer service from start to completion.
L. H.
Strike's financial team were incredible!
I interacted with James Brown who was extremely accommodating and knowledgeable. kept me informed and updated every step.
Strike has all their charges attributed to the lending banks meaning the up front costs didn't happen and we still go the same rate quoted by other lenders.
Would surely recommend James, Claudia & Jon as the team who looked after us to anyone who is looking for mortgage help.
W. T.
I’ve just completed on the sale of my home with Strike. It’s important to be clear that what you get from Strike isn’t what you will get from a high street estate agent. The ‘local property expert’ comes and conducts a quick walk around and values your property in line with comparable properties in your area, you could probably do this yourself! They then get you on the market, you’re then handed over to a sales negotiator who keeps track of your sale, then on to an account manager once the property is sold. Throughout the whole process, I spoke to people from Strike on 3 occasions, all were short phone calls and they were usually always too busy to answer the phone immediately if you did need them.
All of that said, we paid £500 to sell our house which is unbelievable value in comparison to the £2k-£3k you’d expect from a high street estate agent. The £500 was for professional photos which were amazing quality. Your property is added to Rightmove & Zoopla for free, you get a for sale board outside your home and access to the Strike hub to manage viewings etc.
If you’re willing (and have the time) to personally manage the sale of your property, liaising with potential buyers, solicitors etc then go with Strike. Just always keep in mind that this is a hands off service, you don’t get the ‘nice to have’ bits but you do save yourself a decent amount of money.
M. L.
The overall service we’ve had from strike has been outstanding and better still - completely free. We can’t thank Chloe Warnes enough for finding us the perfect mortgage and the most suitable insurance. We’ll definitely be using Strike for any future sales.
S. M.
I did my own video fir my property and it was literally free to sell and they all were amazingly helpful I can barely believe it was free and I went with their solicitors too feeling that as it was free I wanted them to get at least referral commission for that and the solicitors turned out to be really good as well. I had been worried about negative reviews but I was wrong they were amazing for me.
S. B.
James and Claudia were absolutely fantastic throughout the whole process of buying a house and obtaining a mortgage and i would happily recommend them to anybody. Always happy to answer the phone and provide advice and guidance and the process, and then once we made a decision on a house the actual process of obtaining a mortgage was laid out fully, thoroughly explained, and made to be completely stress free by their professionalism and ability. The fact that this was a completely free of charge service just makes it even more incredible. I will absolutely be coming back when my current mortgage expires to have them find my next one for me as well.
A. B.
I was a first-time buyer, and the agents from Housesimple/Strike made the whole process really easy and straightforward for me. Apart from suggesting the best solicitors and explaining the steps I had to undertake to buy the property, they also offered mortgage advice which resulted in getting the best possible deal on the market, free of charge and without any additional stress related to the arduous process of bank interviews to obtain the agreement in principle and money. I was very happy with the process as a whole, and 4.5 months later I became a homeowner!
P. N. U.
I was very sceptical about Strike initially but so far they have proved me wrong. Their service has been professional and helpful. Brogan Mason (Mortgage & Protection Advisor) has been exemplary, finding solutions to ease the process all along.
A. E.
Great company. If you want to sell your property go with them. They don't charge and there is no hard sell to purchase an additional options if you don't want though I would recommend the professional floorplan and photographer option.
c. p.
Great experience, property sold at asking price on first day and sailed through to completion within 10 weeks.
Both buying and selling were chain free which did help but Strike provide great value for what they offer. Thanks
K. P.
Absolutely brilliant.
Hassle free and so easy through to completion, and the best of all it's FREE!
Would definitely recommend and use again.
D. A. R. W.
It was a seamless experience using Strike. The staff were up to date on what was happening with our case and whenever an issue arose, it was sorted immediately. They also supported with mortgage advisors, conveyancing, removals and more!
G. E.
Genuinely sell your house for free as long as you do your own viewings. Really good option and the online portal is fantastic
S. R.
Most amazing estate agents ever! Cannot fault at all! Especially Siobhan Wardle, thank you so much for everything you are doing for us 🏡
L. H.
We're first time buyers and used Strike's advisory services - because we knew very little about buying a house! The first time we spoke to our Mortgage Advisor Steph, she told us "no question is a stupid question" - and from that moment forward, she was so brilliant, helpful and responsive. And we did ask lots of stupid questions! We were able to contact Steph directly whenever we needed. We felt that she was always totally honest with us, always giving us the best advice, and we never felt mislead. As well as our mortgage, Steph was also able to help us sort our home and life insurance policies - which really helped make the house buying process as stress free as possible.
As we moved through the process, Steph's colleagues Claudia and Jon were also brilliant, keeping us updated throughout, and always easy to contact and happy to answer answer any of our questions.
I really can't thank the team enough for their help and advice - and we will be recommending Strike's services to all of our first time buyer friends in future!
Thank you so much! Louis and Ali :)
J. D.
Leeson, who deals with my sale and correspondence is always quick to respond to queries and provides updates as he receives them. Great service and would recommend Strike.
M. M.
It was a pleasure dealing with Strike's personnel. Everyone was so professional and efficient. I loved that staff were available on any day at any time. The on line platform was so easy to use and I always knew what was happening. No waiting around for offices to open. Using Strike saved us thousands of pounds.
R. V. (.
Second time I've sold a property with Strike (they were House Simple first time) and I've got to say that on both occasions they were very good.
Would recommend no problem
*.
Strike were fantastic. The whole team were friendly, helpful and professional. Unlike other agents they were available in the evening and weekends. Why would anyone want to use a traditional agent when Strike offer so much more. They were great!
S. Y.
As a first time buyer three things I’d like to leave a review on Strike’s service.
1. Mortgage service. Highly recommended, I am purchasing a property from Strike and used their broker. Ioni Hornsby has been extremely helpful. She always respond my queries timely - though I had plenty as a first time buyer.. she called me when I needed to speak to someone. And she helped me in any possible way, patiently and promptly answer all my questions even things that are out of mortgage scope. She helped me getting a mortgage offer in 10 days. I got her call telling me the good news first thing in the morning on my birthday, so it was brilliant. Unbelievably, the service is for free, I would give Ioni 6 stars if I could.
2. Negotiator. This was ok. When my offer got accepted. I was told that I’d be called to go through ID and funds check so that the property can be taken off the market. But no one contacted me for two days, and I had to call/email multiple times to chase to speak to someone and get it done.
3. Legal service. I did not use them simply because it was difficult to speak to someone - no one answered the call or gave a call back. So I chose to go with someone else.
Overall, Ioni made the experience with Strike brilliant and I really appreciate all the help she gave me. I hope the management team can see my review and give her a raise/bonus as she definitely deserves it! !😊
S. G.
I was dreading using an online estate agent when I fell in love with the house but it was honestly the least stressful thing about my entire house purchase/move. I was pleasantly surprised to say the least. I also thought it was great that it's not all COMPLETELY online, there are actual people you can speak to via phone if you do find yourself stuck.
If in the future I plan to sell I will certainly be returning to them. I was so impressed.
j. g.
I had the pleasure of working with Jemma and Tom and lately Toni Jackson on my mortgage.
I must say they were fantastic. Their responsiveness and attitude was outstanding, even though I had tons of questions i never felt as I'm bothering them. Jemma sorted a top-notch mortgage deal for myself and gave me great tips and explanation on things I thought I knew. I'm immensely grateful. Toni on the other hand stepped in near completion. My mortgage was about to expire and we had quite a few issues with the management company and we were not sure, if everything will go through in time. I send an email to Toni explaining my thoughts and frustrations and in a couple of minutes, she called me (the solicitors would usually need days), reassured me and sorted the issue (almost like a psychotherapist on top of her work title. She even reached out a couple of times, just to double check that everything is going in the right direction before the deadline. I cannot praise her enough. Thanks for all your help!
H. B.
The process was very simple and well explained. I felt supported throughout the process of buying my first home. The strike chat with the seller was helpful in us keeping in contact and ushering the process along.
C.
Great website to find a home. Easy to use layout. Makes life so much easier.
S. W.
Sell your property for free!!! I have to say I was on the fence with this concept but It’s been easy ! If you have a good camera, upload your own pictures, strike created the write up and floor plan for Free!!! It was on right move within a few days! Every step from validating a buyer, keeping me updating to completion. Seriously can’t get over the fact that we didn’t pay them a penny !
d. w.
Kirsty and Allie were amazing. Nothing was ever too big or small, and we were always greeted with friendliness, professionalism and understanding. If we could have employed them to be our solicitors as well, we would have, as feel they were more helpful than our solicitor, even on matters above and beyond what was expected.
I would recommend them to anyone.
Thank you so much for for helping us through a very exciting, but extremely stressful time.
C. C.
I am a first time buyer and Jemma and Tom have been so incredibly helpful, patient and lovely. Have already recommended them to friends looking at buying this summer, but would genuinely recommend them to anyone looking at starting the mortgage / buying process. 10 / 10 :)
J. L.
Valued my house the same as expensive estate agents, then sold in a week at just over asking price. Saved me about £5k on agency fee's. Was easy to use the app to view offers and chat with potential buyers. I feel Strike are utilising technology to provide a great service at low price and this will be the future for selling houses.
A. B.
Professional service, got us a great deal on a mortgage for a property we are buying with another agent. Talked us through all the details and handled all the paperwork for us, including setting up insurance. Really happy!
e. b.
I sold my house for FREE with strike. We completed the sale within 12 weeks. It seems to good to be true - but it isn’t. It was a completely free service and their online portal was great.
W. N.
Strike & our Agent, Nick Lodge, gave us absolutely great service.
We are happy to recommend them.
K. P.
The best Mortgage advisors are here. If you would like everything to happen fast and perfect choose Steph and Claudia. I don't have enough words to say how satisfied we are. Thank you Steph! Without your it wouldn't be possible. Wish you Good Luck and all the best in the future!
D. B.
James and Claudia, helped me find a mortgage quickly and were helpful in every step of the application. Helped me quickly identify any information I needed to provide, made the process easy for a first time buyer.
R. R.
Strike’s care for both parties in the buying and selling process as well as their mortgage advice and application support tool away almost all the stress that could be involved in the process. Highly recommend in particular James Brown’s support was exceptional.
b. w.
Although we didn't use Strike to sell, our buyer used them but they kept in touch with us throughout the process and chased our Solicitor's, they were far better than our estate agents and would recommend them.
A. G.
James took the time to answer all the questions that I had as a first time buyer and I am very grateful for his patience! He talked us through everything clearly and made me feel comfortable with the process. Thank you to the team. :)
B. A.
Simple and easy to use , just upgrade more often the situation for the properties.
