Abbi, acted as the Lead sales agent in my complex and drawn-out property purchase. Throughout the process, Abbi demonstrated outstanding communication skills, kept all parties informed, aligned, and reassured me despite evolving circumstances and a few delays. She showed consistent attentiveness and persistence, even when my confidence began to waver due to a protracted and not fully understood probation-related process on the seller’s side. One of the standout moments was when Abbi proactively mediated a direct conversation between myself and the seller, helping to surface and resolve mutual concerns and rebuild trust. Her ability to strike the right tone - professional yet empathetic -played a key role in keeping the sale on track. Even during the moments of uncertainty, Abbi remained committed to managing expectations, maintaining momentum, and protecting the interests of all involved. Abbi’s role was instrumental in seeing the transaction through from viewing to completion. I would happily recommend Abbi for any future sales, particularly where sensitivity, clarity, and stakeholder management...
Read moreI took a day off work and traveled 2 hours and 30 minutes for a property viewing that Churchill rigidly scheduled for a Monday morning - an inconvenient time for anyone with a full-time job. Despite being told that the next step would be receiving an application form, almost two weeks now, and I have yet to receive it. Worse still, my follow-up email inquiring about it has been ignored.
The viewing itself lasted less than five minutes - I know because I arrived 10 minutes early and was finished before my scheduled time even began.

This makes me wonder if in-person viewings are insisted upon so that potential tenants can be judged based on appearance before being considered for the property.
Unfortunately, the experience felt prejudiced. Katie, who conducted the viewing, barely acknowledged my presence when I initially walked it - I greeted her so friendly but was ignored until she was ready for me.
I’m used to witnessing and experiencing treatment like this, but professionalism and basic respect should not...
Read moreAbsolutely fantastic Estate Agents. We went through them first with a sale we had to walk away from and they were always professional and reasonable, completely understanding our perspective and we never felt under any pressure. We then successfully bought our house through them and couldn’t be happier with the service received. We have found other Estate Agents in York at times dishonest and often far too much on the side of the vendor as opposed to the Churchill approach which seems to be a genuine and fair intermediary, keeping everything calm and smooth. We have instantly trusted everyone we dealt with at Churchills. At all viewings we were shown round by Abi who was very personable, professional and knowledgeable. Amy and Louella were also then incredibly helpful in helping us achieve a smooth sale. Thank you to everyone involved in our house purchase, I hope my review prompts more people to view properties listed by Churchills and find...
