Christian was the most helpful person…
Christian was the most helpful person that I had to deal with during my move process. From start to finish he was always willing and quick to answer any questions and help chase and check on the progress, even when things went a little wrong! We can't thank him enough as we are now happily settling into our new house.
First rate small agent
Chris has years of experience in his field and worked very hard for us to complete what proved to be quite a complicated sale. He had to sell our house twice, in fact, and the second time he secured an excellent offer in a matter of days. He was always instantly available for advice, courteous and efficient. We are happy to recommend him without any reservations.
First class service…
Christian was very helpful and extremely professional. He provided peace of mind and gave us the utmost confidence that we could leave proceedings in his very capable hands. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to sell their home or buy one.
Bought and Sold with Labram
We have recently bought and sold properties through Christian at Labram Holmes and was pleased with the overall experience.
Having had previous experience with corporate agents, I knew this was something I wanted to avoid due to the nature of their tactics, Christian offered exactly that. He was honest with us throughout the process and straight to the point rather than spinning the usual lies you would get from a high street agent.
We met Christian when viewing a property he had on the market. Ours was not on the market at this stage but he was still very accommodating with the viewing. After viewing we invited Christian round to our house to provide us with a market appraisal and subsequently ended up listing with him and purchasing the property we viewed.
Having worked in the industry for a high street agent, I was a bit apprehensive of Christian’s tactics of “guide price” and working the buyer up to the price we needed to achieve but he achieved exactly what he set out to do.
We went from initial viewing to completion in just under 4 months. Christian remained professional throughout, responded to any question/queries outside of “normal” working hours and always kept me updated with the sales progression.
We have now purchased our “forever home” but if we were to move again, I would be more than happy to use Christian and Labram Holmes and would highly recommend.
Outstandingly professional and always…
Outstandingly professional and always attentive
Chris and his team at Labram Homes were instructed to market two local building plots with planning permission to local developers. After having numerous other local estate agents value and quote, I was impressed from day one by Chris’ professionalism, always being very quick to respond to any contact by phone or email, and also valuing the plots at the correct market price which he achieved. Chris went above and beyond in helping to resolve the usual legal issues arising and would highly recommend Labram Homes. Will definitely be using in the future. Thank you very much Chris and the team.
Very professional and helpful
Very professional and helpful . Somewhat protracted due to complications associated with overseas buyer but kept us informed and facilitated when appropriate . Easily contactable and responsive . Thank you
Trustworthy, knowledgeable Estate Agent with personal attention
Having not experienced any luck with two estate agents, we decided to give Labram Holmes a go, especially as they had sold several houses in the village very quickly.
From the minute we met Christian, we knew we were in safe hands. One of the things Christian does is to explain the selling or buying process in lay man's terms. Straight forward and to the point. He listens to what you want with regards to selling and gives you straight forward advice.
All my calls, messages and emails where answered in record time and to be honest Christian went above and beyond what I would expect from an estate agents. I chose to show buyers around our home but still had any support required from Christian.
Having an estate agent who owns their own business means that everything they do with the selling or buying process matters. We highly recommend Labram Holmes to sell your home in record time.
Thumbs up for Labram Holmes
Had a good experience working with Chris, from start to finish.
Chris was attentive, honest and at the business end of the process, knew what levers to pull to ensure momentum, in quite aggressive timescales.
We found Chris to be well connected with other agents, and was able to drive the process and share updates at pace.
Thanks Chris.
We have had a fantastic experience…
We have had a fantastic experience buying our first home with Chris. He was very communicative, professional and brought a wealth of expertise about both the market and the property we were purchasing. We couldn’t be happier with the service and support we had from Chris and wholeheartedly recommend Labram Holmes.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Truly Exceptional Experience
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Truly Exceptional Experience
Chris has been nothing short of incredible throughout our entire journey of selling our old home and selling the new one we absolutely love. From the very beginning, he was there for us — not just as an agent, but as a genuine, caring person who truly wanted the best for our family.
Nothing was ever too much trouble. Every question we had, every worry, every late-night message — Chris was always there with clear answers, reassurance, and a level of professionalism that made the whole process feel easier and far less stressful than we ever expected.
He guided us through every step with patience, kindness, and expertise. We never once felt alone in the process. Thanks to Chris, what could have been a complicated and overwhelming experience became an exciting new chapter for us.
We are now in a home we truly love, and we owe so much of that to him.
Chris, you didn’t just help us move — you helped us move forward.
We will always be grateful.

Highly recommended …
We found Chris from Labram Holmes to be helpful and knowledgeable. We appreciated how quickly he dealt with all aspects of the house sale. He was clear, honest and upfront so you always knew where you stood. From our experience, we would highly recommend using Labram Holmes.
Exceptional experience for first-time buyers
We’re currently buying our first home through Labram Holmes, and working with Christian has been an absolute breath of fresh air. He is genuinely down to earth, approachable, and wonderfully informal in the best possible way. Communicating over WhatsApp and voice notes made the whole process feel like chatting with an old friend rather than dealing with an estate agent. He never made us feel like we were bothering him, and although we didn’t expect replies at all hours, the fact he was always willing to respond just shows the level of dedication he has to his job. He’s charming and personable without any of the pushy sales vibes and because of that, we trusted and liked him instantly.
The photos and marketing of the property were exceptional. This house was the first one we viewed and the one we ended up choosing. After seeing it, we browsed Labram Holmes’ website and were honestly blown away by how standout the marketing was across all of their listings. We hadn’t heard of the company before, but every property looked so professionally presented, with images that genuinely caught our attention. The pictures of our home were stunning yet still an honest representation; beautifully captured without being misleading. If we ever come to sell in the future, we would choose Labram Holmes without question.
As first-time buyers, we had plenty of moments where we needed things explained, and Christian held our hands through every step, often providing clearer advice than our solicitors. He handled all of our “silly questions” with total professionalism, mixed with a little humour and a light-hearted approach that made everything feel so much easier. It was genuinely a pleasure dealing with him.
Throughout the process, he kept in regular contact, offered honest advice, and pushed things along swiftly. Without his effort, we would never have secured a completion date before our baby arrives, and the entire experience would have been far more stressful.
Overall, the service has been fantastic - modern, refreshing, and miles ahead of any other agents we encountered while viewing other properties. From the very first viewing, we knew this was the home we wanted, and even though we looked at others just to be sure, no one else came close to the level of service Christian provided.
We couldn’t recommend him or Labram Holmes more highly.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Brilliant Service
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Brilliant Service from Start to Finish!
I first met Christian from Labram Holmes when viewing another property he was marketing and I instantly knew he was the person I wanted to sell my home. His friendly down-to-earth approach really stood out from the more traditional, formal and often less reliable, difficult to contact estate agents. Christian just felt genuine and refreshing.
From the very start, Christian was fantastic. He has a true 24/7 attitude to his work, I often received updates outside of the usual 9–5 hours, which showed just how dedicated he is to his clients.
The marketing of my property was exceptional. The photos and drone images were outstanding, so good they almost made me want to buy my own house! The listing write-up was professional, engaging, and really showcased my home in the best possible light.
Thanks to his proactive approach, my property attracted a lot of interest straight away and I secured a sale much quicker than I ever expected.
I honestly couldn’t recommend Christian at Labram Holmes highly enough. I have recommended him to family and friends in a similar position and he has secured sales for all of them. If you’re looking for an agent who combines professionalism with a personal touch and gets results look no further.
What started as a positive experience…
What started as a positive experience has unfortunately after many months of chasing and the issues raised being overlooked to now after 6+months being told the buyer has officially pulled out, we are extremely disappointed with the service. If you are happy to receive random messages or voice notes for communication that you have to follow up yourself to make sure they are correct then you will be happy with this estate agent, however, the customer service and follow up you would expect to receive for the their charges wasn’t met. All we can say is don’t just believe what your estate agent tells you: wish anyone using them the best of luck, however, we will not be recommending!
Straight forward purchase
Straight forward, excellent communication and support for the purchase of our new property, Chris ensured that the process did not lose momentum. Refreshing change from the usual estate agencies
Chris was professional and helpful in…
Chris was professional and helpful in the selling of our parents and family home after there sudden passing…a stressful and sad time was made so much easier…thankyou for your professionalism at all time we really appreciate it
Selling deadline
I found Labram Holmes through get agent. Christian was very enthusiastic and unique with his ideas from the get go. I had to give him a deadline that had to be met and he smashed it with bells on! His pictures and drone usage was second to none it really did the property justice. He was always on hand if advice was needed and his 24/7 attitude was what probably sold the house. I would definantly recommend.
Taken to see a property that was already sold without our knowledge
We went to see a property through Labram Holmes. We left the property to look at the surrounding area when we passed the house just 30 mins after finishing our viewing there was a sold sign up. We phone the estate agent and
In his words”we have just received an offer which has been accepted ”. In reality to give them time to arrange a sold sign they would have received an offer the day before our visit. I wonder if the new prospective owner knew he was showing us round their property with the hope that we would gazump them. I thought Estate agents had a code they were supposed to stand by but obviously this is not something that has been adhered to by these agents. As the previous one star review stated I question this agents ethics.

Son gazumped
Son gazumped. Did not realise this practice was still prevalent. He had his offer verbally accepted and put the wheels in motion for the building survey. Agent telephoned to advise a higher offer had now been accepted.
Son heartbroken and this agent's ethics must be seriously questioned.

Brilliant service
Brilliant service.
We would highly recommend Labram Holmes! Chris was brilliant from the outset. We initially met him when he showed us around our now home, and during the course of the viewing we mentioned we were looking for a valuation. Chris was over a few days later and gave us a helpful run down of our houses value. Not only this, the speed in which he took images of our house to sell, including a drone image from above, and had our house listed was frankly incredible. The listing and wording looked slick and professional. We were lucky enough to sell and buy the house of our dreams all thanks to Chris. His communication throughout was brilliant, he was easy to reach, friendly and approachable.
