Very highly recommended. These guys helped us navigate through a tricky sale. The sale has been completed in a very timely fashion. The constant and consistent communication was superb and kept us reassured as to what was happening and that things were progressing. Unbelievable service - especially when you consider this was achieved whilst in lockdown. The staff also friendly, knowledgable and accommodating.

I rang palmers and partners at aroundb5 in the afternoon panic stricken because I was about to be homeless. I spoke to kate from lettings who completely understood my problem, she showed me a property at 5.50 that evening. Kate went out of her way to pull all the stops for me, and I am thanking her once again for her hard work and time. I can not reccomend Palmer and partners highly enough for dedication and treating you like an individual.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

I have been a customer of P&P for the past 4 and a half years. From day one they treated with the care and respect anyone should deserve. They went beyond what was needed in my time of need. In a way I wish I could take them and my landlord with me. The lettings team are amazing. John is already proud of them and so he should be.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

We have a history of being impressed with Palmers. We bought through them 8 years ago and so when we came to sell they were the natural choice. We were not disappointed : they found us our buyer quickly and were very tenacious in helping overcome the various hurdles that one faces in this process.

Cannot thank the team at Palmer & Partners enough for their fantastic service throughout our sale and purchase. The sales team were great from start to finish; Alfie the valuer was great, Tyler and Amy for all of their hard work organising a huge amount of interest straight away and finally Hayley for pushing constantly for us to get a sale through incredibly quickly in a very busy market! Overall, the team have been incredible to work with and I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone! Five star service!

We recently sold our home through Palmer and Partners and I couldn’t recommend them highly enough. The team were fantastic at getting viewings booked in and providing us with prompt feedback. Once we had sold our house (which, to our surprise was not a long wait at all), Amy progressed our sale and was fantastic. She was so helpful and kept me informed and updated every step of the way. Nothing was too much trouble from start to finish and in general the team were a pleasure to work with. Selling a house isn’t always an easy process but it was made so much easier by having a professional and responsive agent to work with. Thank you Palmer and Partners for your help and support with our house sale.

Phoned up Thursday morning to view a property and was told there were no appointments available that day so booked a viewing for Friday evening. Come Friday morning I received a text to say the property had been let. Phoned up to check and another woman told me there were in fact viewings all day and evening Thursday and the property was now let out. The woman I spoke to on Thursday morning, when I mentioned the property would be for myself and my partner she only asked about his work details, after booking the viewing time I asked if she needed my work/wage details to which she said along the lines ‘oh I didn’t think you worked’ which I find seriously unnecessary and rude - why wouldn’t I be working because I’m looking to move with my partner? Super unhelpful!!

Dear Maria, I am sorry we were unable to help. There was obviously some kind of misunderstanding as my staff are always going out of their way to help. The inbound enquiry numbers at the moment are several hundred per day which is putting an unprecedented strain on everyone. Please contact me personally, I will ensure you get what you need. Thanks, Jon. Jongallop@palmerpartners.com

I can't thank Palmer and Partners enough for the service I received when selling my property. Friendly, professional and communicative, they worked extremely hard from listing to completion. I always had a number of different contacts to call should I need an update or advice, and knew I could rely on them to chase up the rest of the chain and keep things moving. I would definitely use Palmer and Partners in the future and will be recommending them to family and friends.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Great Agent, could not fault them, they have worked so hard to sell my house and finally it got sold, it took a long time as it fell through three times but they assured me all the way along that they would sell it and not to worry. The girls kept me informed all the way along and pushed the solicitors all the time. They also got me my rental flat and even there it was a very smooth transaction and faultless all the way. Hats off to you guys! your the best.

Superb service from Palmer & Partners. I have used P&P before and returned as their service was very impressive. With the country in 'lockdown', the service remained superb. Professional, understanding and reliable. Special thanks to Simon and Claire who have been our key contacts.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Completed on a flat sales today, which quite frankly would probably never have happened without the hard work and responsiveness of Claire. The sale itself was straightforward, but the legal side with the solicitors has been an absolute nightmare and taken six months in total. Claire from P&P has been amazing - chasing up solicitors, keeping us updated. I'm pretty sure the transaction would never have completed if it wasn't for all her hard work. Thanks Claire!PositiveQuality, Professionalism
