I had to re let my rental property and took advice from Stafford & Johnsons. Sadly very poor advice was given and it took 3 months to re-let my property with a number of failed credit check applicants. I had given Johnsons 3 month notice before the end of tenancy, nothing was done until after the tenants had left, causing unnecessary delays. The company had no possible candidates on the books, Didn't advertise until a week after property was vacant. I had lost 3 months rent, This was unnecessary to be so high, costing myself over £4.5K I have taken extensive advice sense from multiple options, this should not have happened to such a significant amount.

Property Management and Sale

Stafford Johnson managed a property for me for 11 years in Goring-by Sea. They also have recently sold it on my behalf. Their knowledge of the local rental and sales markets is exceptional. They managed both on-going rental and the sale with the highest degree of professionalism and attention to ensure matters were always attended to with the best possible outcomes.
I would thoroughly recommend them.

Outstanding service!

Lovely to do business with, great local knowledge, always contactable and willing to go the extra mile - I could not have asked for a better estate agent. Richard Davis is the epitome of first class customer service!

Highly professional service

A highly professional, polite and friendly service from Ian and his team.
They had an impressive list of prospective buyers and were very helpful throughout the process, especially with the additional problems caused by Covid.

Make Stafford Johnson your first choice...

We would not hesitate to recommend Stafford Johnson for both selling our property and buying our new home. The entire team go above and beyond and offer a top quality ,personal service.
Great communication both with regular email updates and by telephone.

We had a lengthy conveyancing process and one issue after another.
Nothing was too much trouble and the end result is that we have secured our dream home.We could not have done this without all the efforts made by Ian and his team.

A big thank you to Ian and his team

A big thank you to Ian and his team, for their professional approach, market knowledge, hours of effort, patience, good humour, tenacity and positive outlook employed to sell our mother's home. It has made what is a stressful time in life a lot easier to cope with.

Alway use the best - use Stafford Johnson

Ian and the team are always professional and understand the this area probably better than most local agents.

Having had the experience of internet agents I would alway sell my house using a local agent and they don't come better Stafford Johnson.

Highly reccomended

As a buyer I would highly recommend Stafford Johnson and would certainly use their services if I came to ever sell my property and would recommend them to family and friends.
All staff encountered were professional and friendly, Ian was very helpful in negotiating the purchase and any issues that came along. He helpfully arranged necessary quotes for works and also arranged them access to the property. I found the company very professional at all times, and was pleased to come across a company with honesty and integrity.
Thank you all

Highly recommend this company

Would highly recommend this company. Many thanks to Ian for his efficiency, constant help and patience during the sale of my elderly parents' bungalow. His sense of humour, especially during my numerous phonecalls, was greatly appreciated! Very professional and friendly company. Thank you to both you and Richard.

Ian Johnson

Ian Johnson, a director of this company, was assiduous in managing a very disparate chain of seven buyers and their attendant solicitors and estate agents. We observed first hand as he skilfully negotiated a veritable minefield of problems with consummate skill but with his unique velvet glove approach to diplomacy. Without Ian’s input in managing the middle of the chain of seven, and for which he had no direct responsibility as he was dealing with us at the top of the chain, we doubt that everyone would have completed successfully.

Richard Davis, Goring manager, and Louise Gowing, who accompanied us three times to our new home, were both sincere and very helpful.

If you want good, old fashioned service, with the feel and substance of integrity, look no further than Stafford Johnson, Goring by Sea.

Good honest people who were extremely helpful in our desire to sell the property as soon as possible. No real issues just seemed the market was a little slow at this time.

Stafford Johnson were a breath of fresh air and stand head and shoulders above the other estate agents I have used over the years. They provided a professional but friendly service that I felt I could trust with all aspects of my sale.
