Unhelpful, unfriendly and quite frankly there must be better letting agents out there, it wouldn’t be difficult. Fully managed gets you very little and within the contract is a fee to terminate, so yo... See more

Howards ! An example of profit and arrogance over customer compassion. To ridicule people in a vulnerable position of grieving. Hang your heads in shame, insufferable people. God forbid... See more

Just pulled out of buying property…

Just pulled out of buying property through Lowestoft branch, dont support buyers at all, poor communication and have not even contacted us to ask if they can help resolve issues that they are fully aware of, or to see if they can assist with finding more suitable property, GO ELSEWHERE if possible

Just a quick thank you to all the team…

Just a quick thank you to all the team at Howards Property Management at Gorleston on Sea branch for all the help during these difficult times. Particular mention to Sarah Baldry for all her assistance in sorting out problems with the houses and finding tradesmen, getting quotes etc. All done with efficiency and a big smile, nothing too much trouble.

Excellent Agent

The Sale Sales Negotiator, Rachael, has been very nice and responsive to the concerns of buyer. She has followed up closely with all the parties involved, including the solicitors.

Unbelievable!!!

Unbelievable!!!! Phoned and explained I was looking at a property on-line, but was unhappy at the price as the lay out clearly required remodelling. Called "sir" even though my voice is clearly female. I hung up.

Bought and sold through Howards

I purchased my property through Howard’s and had such a positive experience that I decided to sell with them too. The team at Howard’s sold my property in just a couple of weeks. They provided thorough feedback after every viewing and made the process stress free with their excellent communication throughout the whole process. Couldn’t recommend highly enough - thank you!!!

Five star service from Lowestoft team

Just wanted to say that anybody looking to shift a house in the Lowestoft area need look no further than the team at Howards. The advice, attention to detail and market knowledge provided was exemplary. We used two other Lowestoft estate agents (who were shockingly awful) before turning to Howards, and to say the difference in service level was a million miles apart is an epic understatement. The upshot is that, thanks to Howards, my partner and I have been able to secure the house of our dreams. While the whole team deserves a pat on the back, a special big up should rightiy go to the Manager, Mike Smith, for his efforts in assisting us.

I would definitely recommend Howards…

I would definitely recommend Howards and in particular the Gorleston-on-Sea office. Jacquie Skipper, Head of Property Management, and Lynne Lawne, Property Manager, were more than helpful. We rented a property and they both were efficient, friendly and extremely reliable. The communication was always prompt and on point. There was never a bad surprise and everything was always clear.

Definitely recommend Howards in Great…

Definitely recommend Howards in Great Yarmouth! While a bit more expensive than their competitors, we decided to use them to sell our house as they were way more 'upbeat'. All the staff were easy to talk to and very helpful throughout. Carina gets a special mention for her never-ending enthusiasm, persistence and excellent negotiating skills. A big thank you to all. :-)

Make buying a house hard

Tried to view 3 different properties that we were very interested in. The first we got a call to say there was a problem with the footings but despite the fact that we are in a position to make repairs this was not established by them and no viewing offered. The second time, we asked for an appointment but heard no more. The third time we were told the vendor would show us around, we turned up 5 minutes early but no one showed. Called them to be told they were sending someone to show us around. No one turned up so we rang and cancelled as it was a hot day and standing around outside was too much. Then received a call to ask why we had not turned up. Incredible inefficiency and lack of communication. Hoping the next house we like is up with a different agent.
