I have recently worked with Mr Mark Hammond of Castledene Bishop Auckland on the sale of buy to let property in the North East. I can report, he is worthy of my 5 * review as I found him a pleasure to do business with and would not hesitate to recommend him to others.

Excellent company. We had troubles with previous managing agents and Castledene was like a breath of fresh air. They managed property renovations for us, letting and sales and we feel we achieved our objectives thanks to them.

Really pleased with the service we recieved from Jodi and the Bishop Auckland team. They sold our lovely home at Trimdon Village within a few days for over the asking price. Very efficient through the whole process making the selling experience very straight forward. Would definitely use again. Thankyou.

I would not recommend anybody going with this group of unprofessional people , they dont respond to problems then say they have . I lost half my deposit because i did the house up i was living in to a far better standard than i got it in . The house was filthy and rats was present i had a cannibis farm in the loft which they never removed when told but told me they have . In there eyes ignorance is bliss , there liers and they use cowboys for builders . They said the house was looking better than when i moved in but still took half my deposit because of colour of a few walls . without any confirmation i handed in my notice and handed keys back. I wasnt aloud to even change colour back due to incompetence. They can keep the money just so i dont have to carry on dealing with them . DO NOT GO WITH THESE

Absolutely blown away by the efficiency of Louise at Castledene Hartlepool. After bringing a long standing family friend back to the town - Louise was able to get the wheels in motion to begin to get himself settled back into life in Hartlepool again. Thanks for all your support Louise - itβs greatly appreciated !!

I had a dream but needed a network of people to help me fulfil it - then God blessed me with Louise Wray! To be able to let go of a very secure and lucrative income and go full time in my dream job of helping people heal I wanted to build a small portfolio of good quality buy to lets and have a team on hand to run them. Louise and her team have literally been the facilitators to my dream from speccing potential through to arranging tenants and all the legal boring stuff. This month I achieved this goal in a little under 2 years!! Without Louise and Castledene "going the extra mile" it would probably still be merely a dream! Thank you is not enough Louise !

Jo has been phenomenal. We have sold our house in France and we're worried we wouldn't have anywhere to live when we come back end of September. This wonderful lady has made it happen. We have done everything via the Internet and she has liased with our daughter to make this happen. She has made what could be a stressful situation easy. We cannot thank her enough.

Very pleased! Alex Matis has been extremely helpful and professional. He has helped my partner find his first flat to rent and has checked in with us regularly with updates and offered guidance whenever needed. We really appreciated that he wasnβt too pushy when viewing. Well done Alex - great service!
