First class service from friendly, helpful and efficient team. Robin and Hannah were particularly helpful and worked hard to achieve a quick completion. I would highly recommend this company if you are looking for a 5* Estate Agent.
Sam H
Robin, Jackie and Hannah were fantastic throughout the process of selling our house. They were never pushy or demanding, they shared a wealth of experience and expertise throughout but ultimately left decisions to us which made us feel reassured and supported. We cannot recommend Nesbits highly enough!
Thank you for all your help and support 😊
Long-winded process!
What a team! Great service all round. For us, our purchase turned out to be a very long-winded process, they stuck with us keeping all sides informed and up to date at all times. Everyone we dealt with was friendly and knowledgeable and we would certainly use them again.
First time buyer
Bought my first property through Nesbits and Jackie and Hannah were great. My mortgage company and solicitors on both sides messed up on day of completion and Jackie was amazing at dealing with this and so kind. Hannah was so kind too and very helpful at answering any queries I had. Really recommend Nesbits to anyone buying a property. Professional, friendly and all round great experience.

We purchased our home through Nesbits in 2015 and when the time came to sell it was an easy decision to sell through Nesbits. Jackie, Robin and team brought a calm, professional and caring approach to what can be a stressful process.
It was a pleasure working with them, they guided our sale to a successful conclusion.
Recommended!
We have recently completed the purchase of our new home in Southsea with Nesbits and were very happy with the experience. Robin Evans and Hannah Prichard were very easy to deal with on the sales side - both knowledgeable and proactive/responsive in coming back to us on the inevitable queries. Other members of the team who arranged additional viewings were always extremely helpful and considerate of the fact that we were not local buyers. A good experience and Nesbits have continued to be helpful since we arrived. Recommended!
Efficient and fuss free
I had a tenanted flat I'd owned for many years and asked Nesbits to auction it. The whole process was efficient and fuss free. The flat sold before auction and completed a month later.
A quality service from Robin who guided me through the auction process always keeping me well informed. He had excellent communication with my local solicitor making the whole process easy. There was little disruption to my tenant who continued as a tenant for the new owners.
If you want a professional, friendly and quality service then I'd thoroughly recommend Nesbits.
Genuine, nice, friendly people
The team at Nesbits are extremely genuine, honest, reliable and professional. During my sale/ purchase they have been so supportive, kind and helpful.
I've come across so many salesy, pushy, dishonest estate agents it has been so refreshing to work with Nesbits who are genuine, nice, friendly people. I cannot recommend them enough, If I could give 50 stars I would!! Thank you so much to Jackie, Robin and Hannah!

Appreciate their professionalism
Jackie and Hannah have been extremely helpful, always available for me, even after the purchase was completed. They never tried to manipulate me into using recommended brokers, solicitors or any other service and were always willing to help. I believe them to be always very respectful and understanding, which was quite reassuring. Above all, I appreciate their professionalism. Couldn’t recommend highly enough. Thank you Jackie and Hannah for your support through the purchase.

Long established firm which is obvious when efficiency and accuracy is required. Customers are valued and service is excellent. I wouldn't go anywhere else.
