Selling a property and moving home can be a stressful experience at the best of times but the Durrants team in the Halesworth office were nothing short of a breath of fresh air. They remained professional throughout the long drawn out process and were exceptional in all communication and delivered exactly what they promised. I couldn’t recommended them highly enough but I’d like to single out the sales manager Gabi Wones as her tireless effort and focus on a complex transaction ensured everything was completed in a timely manner, thank you Gabi.
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.
Excellent polite service, chased when relevant.
Durrants in Halesworth sold my mothers property. Gabi Wones was very professional with very good communication. Thank you.
Both my wife and I wish to thank all the staff at the Harleston office for the support and help show to us for what was an extremely prolonged and difficult purchasing process. At all times they would go out of their way to provide us with required information, and did so willingly. Their professional approach at all times to meet clients’ requests is to be applauded.
Many thanks to you all, we greatly appreciated everything you did for us.
We used Durrants to buy from – first sale fell through but no fault of Durrants and they tried all they could to keep it alive. The house we have now exchanged on was also bought through Durrants and the second time was just as positive. Koryn was magnificent – she kept us up to date constantly, was calm, professional and exceptionally helpful. Thanks to Durrants as a group and Koryn in particular.
I have to say the service and determination we received from Imogen was exceptional! She worked so hard on the sale of our property, keeping us informed throughout the process, we would highly recommend Durrants and are very grateful for all their hard work.
Amazing professional service keeping us informed throughout. Especially Lily who communicated every step to ensure completion. Well done Durrants.
Jasmine was thorough, very helpful and the whole process ran smoothly.
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.
We purchased a property via Durrants, they provided very friendly and professional service, would recommend to anyone in need of their services.
The whole experience was excellent from start to finish. Roberta handled my purchase in an efficient and friendly manner. Well done Durrants, I would not hesitate to recommend you again.
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.
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.
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.
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.
The team were helpful and efficient throughout the whole transaction of my sale.
All the Team were so helpful, friendly and kind at a really stressful time. They guided me through the whole process of the sale and more. Thank you for everything.
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!
I was very impressed at the level of service I received from Durrants. Myself and my wife know the Halesworth office and there has always been a friendly and courteous staff. The person who introduced me to the property was Tom who tragically died a short while later. Gabi Wones has been very efficient and overall I am much impressed by Durrants in general.
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.
During purchase of house the staff at Durrants in Halesworth were always very helpful with any requests for information that I made. Happy with their service.
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!
Everyone at Durrants were very helpful and Gabi especially helped to speed things along with the respective solicitor’s and the vendors thank you.
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.
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.
Excellent team and company. The girls we dealt with Roberta and Imogen who were incredible. Imogen met us at the property and is very knowledgeable and professional, once we negotiated a price with our vendors the girls were excellent no matter who we dealt with they kept us up to date with every step and helped us along the way to buying our first ever home together. The process was smooth and the team made it really easy to understand everything and explained anything we weren’t sure about! We would 100% recommended this estate agents really lovely team nothing is too small or big of an ask. We are now settled in our first home and it’s all thanks to the team at Durrents. Thank you!!
Gabi Wones in particular, went above & beyond expectations, without her intervention our sale would have fallen through, can’t recommend highly enough!
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.
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!!!!
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.
I recently sold a property through Durrants Southwold and had the pleasure of dealing with Lily throughout the process. Despite operating in a particularly challenging market, Lily remained consistently professional, proactive, and supportive. She kept me well informed with regular updates on viewings and was always ready to review the strategy or pricing when needed. Her clear communication and dedication made a potentially stressful experience much smoother. I’d highly recommend Durrants Southwold, especially Lily, for anyone looking to sell in the area.
Excellent polite service, chased when relevant.
Excellent – very efficient and professional.
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.
Anna has kept us informed at all stages, the written survey was emailed to us promptly. The survey you provided was comprehensive and constructive. We will be able to progress with the purchase of our future home with the knowledge that although it needs some further investigations and improvements, we know exactly what we are buying, and are able to more accurately plan our time and finances moving forward. I would certainly recommend Durrants.
Excellent service from valuation to completion on my parent’s house. Always helpful to both ourselves and the purchasers.
Provided excellent service from Lisa originally valuing the property and the dedicated help from all the office staff during a particularly long and complicated sales process
As ever, I’ve been really impressed with the service Durrants provided. August, our point of contact, has been faultless throughout the transaction. Professional, friendly, helpful — we couldn’t have wished for more. Thanks guys, it’s been a pleasure working with you again.
From start to finish Gabi was very efficient and helpful in the purchase of my mum’s property. Highly recommend.
Very thorough survey report. Excellent service throughout.
George, August, Toby and Hannah provided a first class service from start to finish. Always polite, easy to get hold of, proactive in calling with updates and happy to give honest, accurate advice. I honestly can’t think of an area in which they could improve their service. Thank you very much, we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to family or friends.
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!
Gabi was so helpful and efficient throughout the purchase of my house. Thank you so much, very professional team.
The Halesworth Durrants team are highly recommended. Imogen & Roberta are lovely to deal with & very professional. Imogen has just got my first property for sale with them over the line & dealing with her last year over my late fathers property I knew the sale would be as seamless as possible & she always kept me up to date. The exchange day was very stressful for Imogen & things were out of her control to get it over the line but we got there in the end with her wealth of experience & great communication, a true asset to Durrants. One sale complete & one to go. Thanks for everything you’ve done for me, it’s greatly appreciated.
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.
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.
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!
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.
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.
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!
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%.
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.
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.
I had great personal service from start to finish selling my house through Durrants. I was lucky enough to have the wonderful Lily as my agent. Skilful, imaginative, dedicated, always absolutely on the ball and lovely to deal with. I felt thoroughly looked after during a very stressful time.
We have recently sold our property through Durrants in Beccles. I have to say the service we received from Koryn and her team has been second to none. From the moment the house went on the market to the moment of completion nothing was too much trouble and they were always happy to help with any queries we had. Would definitely highly recommend.
Purchased house that Durrants were selling. They were very helpful and flexible when arranging viewings and also swift with assisting negotiations. A friendly and professional service was always displayed by Gabi & Imogen. A pleasure to deal with.
Really friendly and helpful. Always kept us informed and our house was sold really quickly.
Durrants of Halesworth are highly recommend. The whole team were excellent. Imogen kept us informed throughout the whole process, very knowledgeable and extremely helpful.
Was all very easy from the Durrants end, they did everything in their power to get everything across the line for me and my partner.
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!
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.
I was very happy with the service provided by Durrants throughout the recent sale of my mother’s property. The circumstances were difficult and we were working to a tight deadline. The property was marketed quickly, the advice on price was sensible, realistic and guided by a good knowledge of the local market and potential buyers were swiftly contacted. Viewings were conducted sensitively and efficiently and in the sometimes tricky period between receiving an offer and exchange of contracts communication was exemplary. Many thanks to those in the Halesworth Office for carrying out small services and favours, whether checking on a vacant property, providing the occasional packing box or forwarding the odd item of important mail. A special mention for Gabi Wones who was businesslike, efficient and supportive throughout. I would not hesitate to recommend Durrants to other sellers.
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 !
I could not fault the professionalism, support and delightful staff. They went the extra mile to ensure the exchange could take place. Their valuation was realistic, and property details were attractive. Totally recommend.
Excellent and helpful services. Dealt with any queries or questions promptly. Would recommend.
Excellent service, especially from Lily. Thanks again!
Always a pleasant and professional experience and I would recommend Durrants.
Excellent service and good communication.
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.
Ms Gabi Wones has shown herself to be an excellent manager of the purchase process. Her attention to detail and her ability to follow up with all parties was exceptional. Without Gabi’s help the sale of our house would not have been possible. She is a credit to your organisation and I would not hesitate to recommend your agency as a consequence.
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.
Excellent staff and wonderful team. Helped all the way through from the first day to the last.
I highly recommend Durrants estate agent. Everyone is a complete pleasure to deal with.
They are all knowledgeable, professional and courteous and they all have that essential sense of humour and are reassuringly witty. Well done.
Superb service from Koryn and Caroline. They had a very difficult to deal with finicky seller and they managed the sale extremely well.
We sold our house through Durrants, they have been really friendly and helpful, an excellent sales brochure was produced along with really good photographs. Prospective purchasers were mostly accompanied visits as we had requested – our house sold quickly and we are very happy with the service we received, thank you.
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.
Gabi has been very professional and a huge help in helping us through the whole process, would not hesitate to recommend them.
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.
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!
Excellent, friendly, knowledgeable estate agents.
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.
Koryn, Caroline and the whole team were effortless from beginning to end.
I would even consider buying another house just to keep up the fantastic working relationship fostered between my family and Durrants Beccles.
A brilliant service, and I will be back.
I found Durrants to be proactive and helpful. In particular, thank you to Gabbi for negotiating a deal on my most recent property purchase.
The cottage I chose was with the Harleston branch. They have been helpful all the way along. It is empty, and there was so much I needed to check, which they had to come out to every single time……and there have been many, but always, they happily drove out to let me in. Nice people to deal with, I have no complaints, and would recommend them without hesitation.
Friendly, personable and professional service.
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.
As a landlord I have dealt with Durrants for many years. Wendy has been our contact for a number of those years overseeing our properties. She always handles every situation with commitment and professionalism. Wendy is a great asset to Durrants with her comprehensive knowledge of the letting side of the business and would recommend her to anyone who is thinking of letting their property.
Alison is calm, efficient and a complete pleasure to deal with. I have rented out my house with her on several occasions now and the same consistent level of service is always provided! If you want an enjoyable rental experience then Alison is top of the list!
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
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 .
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!
I went with Durrants Beccles office for the purchase of my new home, Both Koryn and Nick went above and beyond to help with my purchase. A most professional service, would definitely use if I ever sold.
I’ve dealt with Wendy who was super friendly and helpful! Helped me find the perfect property and has gone the extra mile to make it more personal for me 🙂 Now happily have a flat with them.
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.
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.
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.
Alison at Durants has been so helpful from the start to moving into our property. Nothing is too much trouble for her. She’s such a lovely lady I cannot recommend this estate agents enough. Everything has been so easygoing. We also got a lovely little card and pot plant on moving in. Thank you all so much, especially Alison. Great work, much appreciated.
Thank you for great service from a fellow guitar player!
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.
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.
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.
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!

Her clear communication and dedication made a potentially stressful experience much smoother. I’d highly recommend Durrants Southwold, especially Lily, for anyone looking to sell in the area.
