We chose the local office of Durrants as they know the area & market very well. They are very professional arriving on time and giving us advice on the properties presentation and strong points. We were delighted to find potential buyers and we accepted the best offer recommendation given by our Agent.
Due to covid and the financial climate, the actual time before we moved became extended but we were continually updated on progress until we completed. Overall a stressful time but it helped along with such considerate and professional staff.
Would recommend Durrants Halesworth office. It is a win 10/10.
The team were helpful and efficient throughout the whole transaction of my sale.
Excellent staff and wonderful team. Helped all the way through from the first day to the last.
We’ve had our fair share of bad estate agents, but Durrants (Particularly Georgia, Lily, and Fiona) have been amazing. Friendly, professional, and willing to help with all our needs. Couldn’t recommend Durrants enough.
Durrants in Harleston made our moving experience easy and hassle free. Staff are very professional always quick to respond. Amber was extremely helpful and polite. Thank you for all what you did.
I wish to bring to your attention, the excellent service and support I received from the staff at this branch. Nothing was too much trouble and they always kept me so well informed of the process of my purchase. Strongly recommend.
I bought a house through Durrants, their service was fantastic and they weren’t working for me as such. All girls were happy, smiley, and nothing was too much trouble .
Imogen has been amazing from start to finish in the sale of our property. There was various complications with the sale but Imogen kept us fully informed all the way through to the day of completion. We cannot thank Durrants & Imogen highly enough for the sale of the property & we would highly recommend their services to friends & family. Thanks again.
The service I received was invaluable. I live over 160 miles from the property in Ditchingham but it never felt like it. A very professional company with a personal touch. I would recommend Durrants to anyone looking to sell or buy a house.
Trevor Musk is incredibly thorough, highly professional and, a very courteous man. Anna is also very professional and thorough. I received my Homebuyers Report Eight days before I expected to receive it and the report was very detailed but, easy to understand.
Well done to both of you!
Durrants were very amazing and helpful throughout the selling process. When I went to the office to sign paperwork, they were very friendly and helpful, and even made me a coffee. With their experience and expertise, they were able to get the property onto the market and sold very quickly.
Amazing professional service keeping us informed throughout. Especially Lily who communicated every step to ensure completion. Well done Durrants.
Very helpful through all stages of the buying process – highly recommended.
I have bought 2 properties, from Durrants, I have dealt with August, who has been nothing but very helpful and always keeping me up to date on how things are progressing – after purchasing my first property, I only wanted to deal with August again to look for a 2nd property. Wendy has also been helpful with renting out of my first property. I can not thank them enough.
Outstanding service from a very professional team, I would highly recommend, I can’t express how happy we are that we have finally found our perfect home. Thanks again team, we are looking forward to completing our purchase!!!!
Alison has spent a great deal of time showing me various properties in the local area. I managed to secure a property which I move into April 2025. The whole process was smooth and very stress free and nothing was too much trouble, best wishes, David
Excellent, friendly, knowledgeable estate agents.
Excellent – very efficient and professional.
From start to completion can not fault the service, nothing was too much trouble and all queries from myself were answered quickly and professionally.
The day I walked into Durrants in Harleston I knew my late mums house I needed to sell before I had to return to Australia was in professional hands. George and Amber helped me step by step during a difficult time and within a few weeks mums house was sold. I would recommend Durrants to everyone who is thinking of selling their property.
We contacted Durrants in December after having had poor service from another Letting Agent in Diss. Eleanor Adcock was very quick to visit the property and to advertise it after giving us advice on the best way forward to find tenants who would be suitable. The previous tenants had left the Barn in an appalling condition and we were hesitant and concerned about not having to face the same issues. She answered all our questions, put our minds at rest, advertised the property and very quickly found new tenants who have just moved in. Her professional attitude is excellent and we are grateful for her help. Thank you.
Really pleased with a friendly service in difficult times.
We have just exchanged on our house and I honestly can’t believe how straightforward it has been. From the valuation all the way through to exchange, Koryn and the team have been such an asset. Response times were fantastic and they were always updating me. Any questions or worries I had were answered swiftly, making the whole sale stress free! Koryn was also consistently chasing our buyers and the solicitors for progress, which ensured we met our target date for our new build. 6 weeks in total from start to finish! Would highly recommend selling through Durrants!
All the staff I dealt with were very helpful and kept me informed at all stages.
Our experience purchasing a property through Durrants has been excellent. Roberta has managed our case from start to finish, from arranging the initial viewing to guiding us through to completion this week, and she has been amazing. As first-time buyers, the process was entirely new to us, but Roberta’s clear explanations and consistent updates made everything much easier to navigate. Always available at the other end of the phone, she has gone above and beyond to assist with solicitors and ensure our case progressed smoothly. Her professionalism, combined with her approachable and friendly nature, has made this journey an incredibly positive one. We can definitely recommend Durrants Halesworth to anyone in the area looking to buy or sell a property. Thank you, Roberta, for your amazing work!
Excellent customer service. Great communication and really lovely staff to deal with. Thanks so much.
Very friendly, good humoured and helpful staff. They all worked tirelessly to sell the property and went above and beyond to help out countless times as the property was a distance away from my home. Would recommend!
Koryn has been so helpful through a very hard emotional rollercoaster of a ride, thanks to her kind caring personality which has reassured us along the way. We didn’t sell through Durrants, we purchased a property with them. I can safely say she went over and above to help. I would recommend Koryn at Durrants in Beccles 100%.
This was the third property sale Imogen had to deal with for me in the past 12 months & it was by far the most challenging. Imogen always kept me updated on the sale progress & did everything she said she would do in which I cannot thank her enough for all her hard work & effort. I highly recommend Durrants & especially the Halesworth office with Imogen & Roberta. Thanks again for everything you have all done, we got there in the end.
Eleanor is always very helpful and makes sure we are looked after if we have any problems with our rented property.
Durrants staff at Southwold with whom we liaised were Alisha, Lily and Fiona. All were extremely helpful and there was a good balance of enthusiasm and experience. The team were professional and reliable and easy to communicate with. Well done to Alisha in particular as it was one of her first sales. We were kept up to date with viewings and feedback. Everything went through smoothly when it came to exchanging contracts and completing. We would definitely use Durrants again if the need arose.
A huge thanks to all the team at Durrants, especially Lily and Fiona. A very professional firm, who go out of the way to make sure you are kept in the loop. I highly recommend them.
Excellent service through a quite protracted and difficult sale. All Durrant’s staff involved could not have been more helpful.
I would like to thank Durrants estate agents Halesworth for our recent property sale. Gabi and her team were very helpful and efficient.
From the moment I started the process I knew I was in good hands.
Selling your house is a daunting prospect but the guys at Durrants were amazing – in particular Koryn, who kept me updated throughout the process.
I would highly recommend Durrants and the team at Beccles. Both for selling and buying a property. They really care about their clients and that makes a real difference when you are making huge decisions in your life like houses. A massive thank you guys.
We cannot give enough praise to Jasmine Philpott for the excellent service she has given us regarding obtaining planning permission. She has worked tirelessly, diligently and speedily throughout .
We have had complete confidence in her abilities to achieve a successful outcome due to her exceeding professionalism and obvious passion for her work. We have felt that she has always been available with sound advice and realised very quickly that she has outstanding knowledge of the planning system and it’s laws. Jasmine has obviously built up a good rapport with a wide range of people with whom she has to work alongside and this all contributes to her ability to provide such an all round service. We feel we have been very fortunate to have found Jasmine who has been such a pleasure to know and to guide us through the sometimes difficult pathways of the planning system.
We can thoroughly recommend Jasmine to anyone wanting the “perfect” professional person in her sphere.
We needed to sell our parents house which was originally purchased through Durrants some thirty years ago. Following other valuations we settled on Durrants, feeling comfortable with the valuation and representative.
There were a number of viewings prior to the property marketing going live, and a buyer secured within a short time period.
All the staff have been professional, responsive and super helpful, we couldn’t have asked for more.
We have just purchased a house through Durrants and without the continued help and assistance of August the purchase would not have been possible. Thank you so much August.
A big thank you to Amber and George at Durrants Estate Agents, Harleston. The hardworking team have worked tirelessly to secure two successful house sales for us this year. Quite an achievement in these challenging times. Their professional dedication to providing a first class service to both buyers and vendors has taken the stress out of moving house. We had constant feedback with viewings and a smooth transition to completion with attention to detail in liaising with all parties involved in the chain. I highly recommend using Durrants Estate Agents.
Gabi was so helpful and efficient throughout the purchase of my house. Thank you so much, very professional team.
It doesn’t get better than Durrants! This team have been absolutely exceptional at every turn, and a complete and utter pleasure to work with. Thank you Team Durrants for being so wonderful!
Fiona was everything you could hope for in an Estate Agent. Patient and never pushy. Knowledgable and never patronising. And then throughout the whole buying process she kept us informed, helped connect us with the sellers and kept us reassured throughout. Thanks for everything.
I would like to thank Toby, August and the team for providing us with such a good service during the sale of our house. They were friendly, professional and approachable throughout the process. They were always available to answer our queries and kept us updated at each stage. I would highly recommend Durrants and would certainly use them again for any future sale/purchase.
Thank you!
Alisha (and colleagues) at Durrants Southwold office have been nothing but professional. She has been, from the first viewing (of a different property) to the end stage of completion of the house that I bought, very efficient, conscientious, friendly and cognisant of both buyer’s and seller’s needs throughout. I would be very happy to recommend Durrants from my recent experience.
To put is into one word…. Simply “OUTSTANDING” !! Caroline Starr was a real…”STAR” … Although she was not “Our” agent as we were the buyers of the property… She worked with us from beginning to end…She never failed to answer our questions and provide us, as first time buyers, the helpful guidance and information we so very much needed to make the buying process as smooth as possible. We will be ever grateful to Ms. Caroline and her help to get us into our new home. Caroline is a “keeper” !!!
Although my property has taken a long time to sell I’ve been very pleased with the service provided by the staff – particularly Fiona, Lily and Alisha – who have continually kept me updated on viewings and feedback. It has been a pleasure to do business with you. Thank you all.
Everyone dealing with the sale was both courteous, efficient and communicated developments promptly. I am very pleased with the outcome and would come back again if the need arose.
Throughout our purchase we mostly dealt with Amber, we also had contact with others from the office. Amber was very professional and helpful at all times, she always returned our calls if she was not available and the Durrants team were always friendly, polite and helpful; there was also a nice surprise for us upon completion !
An excellent Service. Gabi Wones and her team worked above and beyond to help us with our sale. They kept us informed of all that was happening.
I can’t express enough how grateful we are for the incredible service provided by Imogen and the entire team at Durrants, Halesworth. Throughout what turned out to be a long and complicated process, Imogen has been nothing short of extraordinary. Her hard work, professionalism, and thoughtfulness made all the difference in getting our sale through, and we honestly never thought it would happen. Imogen went above and beyond to ensure everything went smoothly, and her dedication truly transformed a stressful situation into a much more manageable experience.
We appreciate all the effort from the complete team, and we hope it’s a while before we need your services again – though we wouldn’t hesitate to return if needed. Thank you for making this journey so much better for us!
We had to sell my mother’s home in Halesworth and chose Durrants.
We were assisted by a very polite and knowledgeable young lady called Gabi Wones, who handled our sale meticulously and very professionally. I would recommend Durrants at the drop of a hat. Well done Gabi.
I would like to thank you Wendy and Durrants for a smooth process. Wendy has been very responsive and polite throughout the initial stages for obtaining the property. Additional services maybe to provide logistics advice especially for those people with disabilities, as I have. I have previously experienced staff at Halesworth and Harleston and found all staff very helpful. Thank you.
Durrants of Halesworth are highly recommend. The whole team were excellent. Imogen kept us informed throughout the whole process, very knowledgeable and extremely helpful.
Absolutely fantastic service from Imogen.
Amber from Durrants, Harleston has been an amazing support with the purchase of our new house. She has tirelessly followed up solicitors which has made the buying of our house a smooth process. Thank you Amber for being a superstar. Would recommend Durrants and would use them again!
Gabi Wones in particular, went above & beyond expectations, without her intervention our sale would have fallen through, can’t recommend highly enough!
I can’t recommend Durrants enough. Great customer service, very helpful and professional. I would definitely use Durrants again.
Koryn was so helpful throughout the whole purchasing process. I was kept up to date regularly throughout the process and couldn’t ask for a quicker response to email enquires. The Beccles team were amazing at solving any issues I had and kept the house purchase on track and completing on the house within 3 months.
Fiona and her team were a pleasure to deal with. They were proactive, always helpful and responsive.
Roberta and Imogen have been friendly and courteous but also efficient and professional. They have kept us well informed and provided reassurance and support. We very much appreciated their expertise, thank you both.
August from the Diss office was very helpful in keeping us up to date in the selling of our barn and kept us informed and filled us in and really a lovely person so kind and would go above and beyond and was very reassuring and kept me calm she held the sale together from all angles in a very professional manner.
We recently purchased a property with Durrants – Imogen handled our purchase and was always incredibly helpful and quick to respond to anything needed to make sure the process went smoothly. Thank you!
We have just completed on a house sale with Durrants Beccles office. Koryn and team were professional, personable and accessible throughout the whole process. Their initial feedback prior to instruction was well informed and showed the benefit of good local knowledge. As a result once on the market the property quickly attracted good interest from serious prospective buyers. Excellent communication with Durrants throughout helped matters progress successfully to completion. We would thoroughly recommend Durrants Beccles office.
Really friendly and helpful. Always kept us informed and our house was sold really quickly.

Thanks to all the staff in dealing with our recent house sale, a special thanks to Roberta for her professional approach and admirable perseverance! Very good communications throughout the process, highly recommend.
Would not hesitate to recommend Durrants Beccles office, after looking after my sale and purchase, which was far from straightforward! Communication was excellent throughout. Koryn was my main contact who was extremely professional and informative and managed to get my purchase over the line. When she was not available the other staff in the office were very helpful and were always aware of what was going on. Thanks so much for getting this over the line.
Roberta at Durrants has been amazing. She has been helpful and supportive throughout the time our property was being marketed and sold. A pleasure to deal with, we would definitely recommend her.
Gabi has been very professional and a huge help in helping us through the whole process, would not hesitate to recommend them.
Good service – John dealt with the sale of our property and were always efficient and professional.
We are finally awaiting collection of keys to our new home in Barnby and would never have been able to get there without the fantastic help and hard work by Koryn and her team at the Beccles branch. She really went the extra mile to ensure our dream came true and we will be forever grateful to both her and Durrants.
5+ star review. We are currently coming to the end of the process of buying our first home through Durrants, Southwold. We couldn’t have done it without Alisha, from start to finish her knowledge, support and attention to detail allowed us to find our perfect first home. Alisha is patient, professional and goes the extra mile, a real asset to the Southwold team. Thank you.
We were very pleased with everything they did for us.
Kept us up to date, always at the end of the phone for our questions, made welcome any time to their office.
Very reasurring towards the end of our purchase that everything was being done for a smooth and succesfull outcome.
Staff were great.
Would recomend.
From start to finish an absolute pleasure to deal with on my house sale. Communication throughout was great & it felt like a very friendly & personal service, like I was their only client. Wouldn’t hesitate to use them again & would highly recommend them. Thanks Koryn, Lisa, Caroline & team.
An absolute delight all the way through, Imogen was helpful, reassuring and super attentive, always at the end of the phone. The process took a little while, no fault of Durrants, but with weekly phone calls and updates I had no worry or stress. Imogen you’re a star!
Durrants in Halesworth were fantastic, especially Roberta who communicated regularly and progressed the sale efficiently and proactively. We cannot thank her enough for her vital communication which is sadly lacking in other estate agents. We highly recommend Durrants in Halesworth.
I can highly recommend team Beccles at Durrants, Koryn was brilliant at communication and holding our hands through out a very complex sale. They were truly professional. Thank you Team Beccles, especially Koryn.
From start to finish Gabi was very efficient and helpful in the purchase of my mum’s property. Highly recommend.
Very good service with regular updates regarding the sale of our property. Prompt and efficient exchange of contracts and completion.
Excellent polite service, chased when relevant.
We are really happy with the service provided from Imogen at Durrants. She kept us up to date throughout the sale of our property all the way through to exchange, and she was only ever a phone call away if we needed anything. Durrants have provided a very professional service overall. Would highly recommend!
From start to finish, Koryn has provided a friendly but professional service, keeping a long and rather tricky sale process on track and over the line, communicating well and keeping everyone informed of progress, finding solutions to issues as they arose and providing invaluable support and advice throughout. Highly recommended.
Lisa and Koryn got us over the finishing line of quite a journey. Many thanks to them.
The service we received was fabulous. Everyone was so understanding of the reasons for my mother’s move and related with her in a sensitive way. Durrants made what was a stressful move, so much easier. Thank you.
We bought through Durrants in Halesworth and the team really looked after us. Gabi kept us informed during the purchase and also kept in contact with the solicitor to keep the process moving. We recommend Durrants and we would use them if we ever move again.
Durrants are professional, communicative, friendly and honest. As a buyer you often feel they are only working for the sellers interests but buying with Durrants felt like keeping both parties informed and happy was at the core of the companies ethos. It is a very emotional roller coaster trying to find the right home (especially within a certain budget). I would like to say a special thank you to Gabi Wones for making my cottage sale finally happen and for being so supportive along the journey. I would also like to say thank you to Imogen Garrard for always being so friendly and responsive in getting back to me when I had questions. I have no hesitation in recommending Durrants.
I recently purchased a property listed by Durrants of Diss. From the first viewing through to the final move, August was brilliant!! There were a few problems on my sale, but throughout the whole process, she couldn’t have been more helpful. Along with the rest of her team in Diss, she would always respond to my queries quickly and efficiently. Whether you are buying or selling, I would highly recommend Durrants.
I have both purchased and sold properties through Durrants Halesworth. The Halesworth office has also been managing lettings on my behalf. I have always received excellent service from the office and recommend trusting this office with all your property needs.
Gabi and the team were very professional throughout. They worked hard to get us a good price for our property and then worked very hard indeed to progress us through to exchange.
Alison has been an absolute pleasure to work with. She is very professional and has been so patient with us. We would 100% recommend and look forward to working together again in the very near future.
Alisha (and colleagues) at Durrants Southwold office have been nothing but professional.

Thank you for great service from a fellow guitar player!
Excellent, polite and efficient service once again, thanks Gabi
Excellent service from valuation to completion on my parent’s house. Always helpful to both ourselves and the purchasers.
Generally, I don’t like estate agents, but all the staff at Durrants were absolutely brilliant and really went the extra mile to help the sale to go through smoothly. Highly recommended!
Durrants in Halesworth sold my mothers property. Gabi Wones was very professional with very good communication. Thank you.
We have just purchased a house through Durrants and I have to say that without the continued help and assistance from August, the purchase just would not have been possible. We currently live in Australia, which has created many obstacles, and without August’s help in overcoming these obstacles the purchase just would not have taken place, so thank you August.
We were grateful for rapid help to be able purchase our house in Newby Close after a sale cancellation of a property in a nearby close. We realised it was also around that time that there was a sudden death of a manager of the Halesworth branch so not the easiest of times. Nevertheless our sale was completed and all was well.
Superb service from Koryn and Caroline. They had a very difficult to deal with finicky seller and they managed the sale extremely well.
Excellent service from August and rest of team during our purchase. Always friendly, communicative and very helpful. They addressed all issues promptly and professionally as well as establishing a good relationship with all parties involved in the process. We were confident in their service and they were nice people to work with.
We have just completed on a house sale with Durrants Beccles office. Koryn and team were professional, personable and accessible throughout the whole process.

Very pleasant staff. Thorough when ever asked a question. Always quick to reply. Amber was predominantly my point of contact. And as said should I sell again Durrants Harleston would be my no 1 choice of Agency.
We have just purchased a house through Durrants and without the continued help and assistance of August the purchase would not have been possible. Thank you so much August.
