Had an amazing experience with Peter from Lextons. One of the most informed and helpful estate agents in Hove. Always easy to get hold of and made the selling and buying process easier then the normal. Would highly recommend.

I have had dealings with Simon Caplin for a couple of years now and have always found him to be extremely knowledgeable, helpful and an absolute pleasure to deal with. Delighted to continue this relationship now that he is with Lextons.

I was really pleased when I heard that Simon Caplin had joined LEXTONS. He has a level of skill and professionalism that will dovetail really well with the team at LEXTONS. He has sold many properties for me over the years and has always been there to offer sensible advice as to the best time to sell to achieve the best price.

I have been dealing with Simon Caplin…

I have been dealing with Simon Caplin in regard to Lettings and property matters for over 15 years. His knowledge of property in the Sussex area is , in my opinion , unrivalled and his sound advice and help has stood me in good stead on many occasions. I would whole heartedly recommend Simon and the superb customer service he provides.

Recently bought a property in Hove via Lextons, our agent Claudia was really great, knowledgable about the local area, always happy to help and liaise with our sellers to ask questions and clarify things for us. Also put us in contact with a local solicitor and mortgage broker which really simplified the process. Would highly recommend Lextons if your looking for a friendly local agent in the Hove area. Thanks again Claudia!

Personal Service that helped make everything less stressful!

Me and my partner went to Lextons to help us with buying our first home together. The online pictures and floor plans were great and it was very easy to arrange viewings. From the moment we put an offer in and it was accepted we were supported. Peter deserves a special mention, he was fantastic. Very easy to contact throughout the entire process, and he was extremely professional. Buying a house is stressful, there is no denying that, but I felt like Lextons tried their best to reduce the stress. I am now a proud owner of my first flat! Thank you Peter!!

First Class Service

Oli Lucraft handled the purchase of the flat. From the outset Oli was professional, polite and friendly. In the current climate, Oli maintained good social distancing whilst we viewed the property. He communicated with us at every step of the process, making, what is usually a stressful experience, extremely enjoyable. He was always contactable and was clearly working with both parties to ensure a smooth transaction. We would highly recommend Lextons and will seek to use them in the future.

Not an easy purchase

The puchase of my flat was not the smoothest to say the least however Peter at Lextons went above and beyond any other estate agent i have dealt with! He is very professional and knowledgeable and would highly recommend.

A class act from start to finish

A class act from start to finish...

I would highly recommend Oli from Lextons. It goes without saying estate agents have a reputation for being “typical sales people” and judging from the first few I met they sadly matched those stereotypes, which is why it was so genuinely refreshing to meet Oli and experience his honest, calm and considered approach at every point throughout the negotiations. Timely, organised and a true gent. I very much hope he stays in the business as, if I ever come to sell a property in the future, I will be calling him first.

Honest and reliable!

Oli at Lextons recently managed the purchase of our dream house by the sea! He was patient and helpful to us as first time buyers, and offered advice and support throughout the process, acting as a great conduit between us and the seller. He really helped push things over the line at the end with our solicitor, and was there at all points to keep momentum up in the process. We would absolutely recommend his services to anyone who needs an honest and reliable estate agent!

A great personalised service received in both sale and purchase. Claudia looked after us throughout the process, with great communication, help through the normal sticking points and a real diligence in making sure that we were happy with how the process was going. If and when we buy our next home, we would pick up the phone to Claudia first for sure.

Avoid, A Rude Dishonest Agent!

Avoid, Avoid, Avoid! Having viewed a property previously the same week with Lextons I was amazed to be told whilst on a viewing we would not be considered for any offers made unless we list our sale with them as opposed to an alternative estate agent. The sales man Oliver was incredibly rude to my wife and I too when we refused to consider his ultimatum, he even swore at us. We were also told the property we were interested in had multiple offers on but still remains on the market a month later, bonkers! I'm sure the seller of the property would love to know that Lextons booked us in for a viewing and didn't even let us view it when we turned up.

Lextons went above and beyond

Lextons constantly went above and beyond to try and create a smooth buying experience. Sadly, the purchase had a few ups and downs but Oliver remained professional and calm, often helping to weather the storm and get us past the finish line. Could not recommend him highly enough. Thank you!

Excellent service, highly recommend

From our first viewing with James we were really impressed with Lextons. Buying our house during lockdown was stressful, however throughout the whole process Peter was there to reassure us, provide really helpful advice and ensure we were kept informed every step of the way. A really friendly & professional business, we would use them again, and highly recommend them.

Recent property sale

We recently chose Lextons to sell our property, and we would have no hesitation in recommending them. Peter was fantastic with us from start to finish and kept us informed all the way through - offering advice and support. Delighted with the friendly and professional service he and Lextons offered.

Friendly, efficient & helpful

We found Lextons helpful, honest and efficient throughout selling our property and purchasing our new property. The whole team were very friendly and sold our flat very quickly.

We will certainly use them again in the future and recommend to friends and family.
