Country Houses in Kent

We started house hunting soon after deciding to move home from the US to the UK and quickly realised it wasn’t practical to do it without help. Rupert was great to work with throughout the process - proactive, always quick to respond, and good company. Thanks to his contacts we were able to view a couple of properties in central Kent/East Sussex borders that weren’t yet on the market, including the one we ended up buying. During the process, we were so glad we had Rupert to represent us. He went above and beyond helping us with the practicalities of a long-distance move, including after completion.

We feel very lucky to have had Rupert to help us find our home. Being new to the area, having him on our side to share his local knowledge of the market and locations was invaluable. He worked tirelessly to help us find the right property for our family across a wide area, screening properties ahead and developing a short list. Once we had found the perfect property, he did a phenomenal job negotiating the purchase on our behalf to help secure the deal. Rupert was also exemplary in resolving any issues along the way, acting as a superb facilitator between parties and was able to solve any issues swiftly and efficiently to ensure a positive result. Rupert could not have been more helpful and went out of his way to ensure the whole process ran smoothly and we’re thrilled with our new home. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Rupert, he’ll help you save a lot of time and find a home that you love.

We had been looking for somewhere on the coast on and off for a while but finally decided to do something concrete about it by asking Rupert Connell to help. He was very responsive and proactive right from the beginning and understood exactly what we were searching for - he tirelessly chased down leads until he found us an extraordinary property right on the coast. It wasn't for sale but his charm and diplomacy won out and we now have an amazing project to work on. We couldn't recommend Rupert more!

We are delighted to be settled into our new home but we wouldn’t be here had it not been for the insight and deep market knowledge that Rupert Connell brought to our search. He patiently accompanied us to viewings of properties we thought we’d like, even though he knew they wouldn’t be right and when he suggested a property that was not in keeping with what we (thought) we wanted, we were sceptical. But it was - and is - a wonderful home for us and we are so grateful that he suggested we give it a once-over. He then helped us immensely through the process and negotiations and was pragmatic and supportive throughout - nothing was too much trouble and he was always in our corner. If you’re buying a property in Kent or Sussex, his encyclopaedic knowledge of the market and excellent attitude are absolutely indispensable.
