Great experience with Prospect on our recent house sale. Would definitely recommend. Beth and Michael pulled out al the stops to get us over the finishing line.

Beth and Bekah were brilliant at helping us to sell our home and purchase our next property. Our chain was quite hard to keep together at times and I think would have fallen through with another agent. They were easy to communicate with, positive and proactive. If we move again I would not consider using anyone else. Thank you!
Great work from Beth and team. Moved into flat in just over 6 weeks from start to finish!
Beth and Michael supported with both the sale and purchase and were excellent at both ends. Our property sold within a week and when buyers pulled out twice they secured new buyers very quickly and smoothly. At the other end Michael managed the chain superbly under many challenges often as a result of the poor performance of our solicitors, Melia Mumford. His communication was great at all times and he managed and controlled the chain very well. I would recommend without reservation.

Outstanding service from Prospect Estate Agency! Kate Smith, the lettings manager, was proactive and professional throughout my tenancy. She made everything seamless - handled complete repairs and renewals. Her dedication and expertise made a big difference. I'd highly recommend Prospect for a stress-free experience." Commission well spent!
Beth was excellent at keeping us informed throughout the whole selling process and chased where necessary off her own bat. Always happy to take out calls (and we were constantly pestering) and we certainly had a far better experience with Prospects than our vendors did with their estate agents
Beth and Michael were very supportive during the purchase of our new property. They kept us well informed of progress and were very supportive on the day of the move too. Thank you both!
Michael and Beth were great when we bought our flat through them. The seller’s Solicitors were dreadful to say the least. We are grateful to Michael for steering us through this and recommending tradespeople.
We had an excellent experience working with Charlotte from Prospect. From beginning to end, she was professional, approachable, and consistently supportive. What truly stood out was her attention to detail and the way she kept us informed at every stage of the process. Her communication was always clear, timely, and reassuring, which made the entire experience smooth and stress-free. Charlotte added a personal touch that made us feel well looked after throughout. We highly recommend her and the service at Prospect!
Outstanding! Beth & Michael were brilliant! Beth’s warmth & sincere nature made the process of looking at houses actually enjoyable instead of stressful, thank you so much for just being you! Michael managed a very long process very well! Thank you guys! I have already recommended you & will again!
Subject: Unprofessional Conduct and Mishandling of Property Viewing Dear Sales Manager, Prospect Estate Agency – Reading I am writing to formally raise a serious concern regarding the unacceptable handling of my recent property viewing and the unprofessional manner in which the follow-up communication was conducted by a member of your team—Luke (possibly Lee). I had a confirmed viewing scheduled for 360 Tilehurst Road, RG30 2NG on Saturday at 13:00. Due to an unforeseen road accident during my journey, I contacted your office to advise that I would be approximately 10–15 minutes late. I had already traveled more than halfway through a two-hour journey at that point. Luke initially hesitated but agreed, after some discussion, to speak with Beth (the viewing agent) and confirmed back that a delay of up to 10 minutes would be acceptable, beyond which Beth would need to leave for her next appointment—which I completely understood. Shortly thereafter, I was informed by my cab driver that further delays of 5–10 minutes were likely due to continued traffic issues. I immediately called back to inform your office and requested Beth’s contact number so I could keep her updated directly. Luke declined to provide her number citing privacy concerns, which I respect. I then asked if we could be shown the property later the same day should we miss the current slot, even offering to wait in the area for a couple of hours so as not to disrupt other scheduled viewings. Despite my efforts to proactively communicate and offer reasonable solutions, Luke was inflexible and made no effort to accommodate or offer alternatives. Following this disappointing experience, I submitted feedback through your website. The next day, I received a call from Luke. Unfortunately, his tone during this call was dismissive, condescending, and entirely unprofessional, suggesting that I had been dishonest in my feedback. He appeared more concerned with defending his position than listening to or addressing my concerns. At no point did he acknowledge the inconvenience caused or offer a rescheduled viewing. Instead, the conversation left me feeling accused and disrespected. While I fully appreciate the importance of punctuality and scheduling, what I encountered was a complete lack of empathy, flexibility, and professional courtesy—particularly concerning given the effort I made to keep your office informed and to propose constructive solutions. I expect this concern to be taken seriously and addressed appropriately. This is not the standard of service one should experience from a professional estate agency. I also expect a formal acknowledgement of this and to be informed of any steps taken to ensure such issues are not repeated in the future. Thank you ! Further Update – Ongoing Disappointment and Possible Breach of Conduct Following my previous review, I followed up today ( Thursday) to reschedule the property viewing that Prospect Estate Agent had originally promised to arrange. No one from the agency had contacted me to do so, despite assurances since Monday. Now I’m being told that because an offer has been made, they can’t arrange a viewing — even though the offer hasn’t been accepted by the seller, and the property is still showing as available online. This feels less like standard procedure and more like a personal vendetta in response to my earlier, honest negative review. I’ve now been told that if the seller doesn’t accept the current offer, my details will be passed to the front office to arrange a viewing. So I’ll wait and see — but if nothing comes of it, I’ll seriously consider raising this issue with The Property Ombudsman or the NAEA, as Prospect’s behaviour appears to be in clear breach of their code of practice.
Charlotte has been really supportive and understanding responding to emails and messages effectively. Definitely felt relaxed talking her.
It's been a long time since I sold property and I was rather nervous. Well I couldn't have been supported by a better team especially Dexter and Shaun. They always kept us up to date and were proactive in nudging along our buyers. Happy to recommend the team at Prospect.
Charlotte Morgan has been very helpful through out this stressful process. Would recommend.
Charlotte was brilliant and very helpful. She was friendly and informative we fell in love with the property instantly. Unfortunately we couldn’t secure it due to our circumstances, but it was honestly amazing. We will definitely contact Charlotte again in the near future and go back to the agency for more rental flats.
Beth has been absolutely amazing – always super friendly and incredibly quick to respond, even outside of working hours! We had a wonderful experience with Beth during the purchase of our first home. She made everything so easy and smooth, and it really felt like she genuinely cared. Beth was a pleasure to work with, and we’d happily recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a home!
Beth Murphy was simply amazing keeping us up to date with our house purchase. I can't rate her highly enough. Without her working tirelessly in the background I don't feel we would have had our successful house move. She went above and beyond and is a real asset to Prosoect Estate Agents. Thank you Beth.
Charlotte was a great support to find our new home for the family. The process has been very organized.
We had a wonderful experience with Beth during the purchase of our first home. She was on top of everything and made sure we completed by our expected date. Beth was a pleasure to work with and would recommend her to anyone looking to purchase a home
Beth and Michael teamed together to drive our sale through. Beth targed the correct clients and positioned our property at the right level to sell. Michael coaxed the sale to the end making up for our buyers poor solicitor performance and helped to keep the chain moving to closure. Overall, a great team performance by Prospect Estate Agency.
