We were thoroughly impressed with Tom and his team. From the first valuation to completion, they were organised, responsive, and consistently went over and above. We were kept fully informed at every stage with clear, prompt communication. We were outside the country during the process, yet their regular updates, quick replies, and practical help with viewings and paperwork made everything straightforward. Their advice was clear, the marketing was effective, and the turnaround on the sale was quick. First-class communication, excellent follow-through, and a smooth experience from start to finish. We would recommend Tom and the team without hesitation.

Very poor service from when we signed the letting agreement, was offered a discount only for the agent to put on extras so this voided any discount. The contracts were drawn up and sent out wrong twice to tenants. Never replied to emails or phone calls, if you a stress free service I would definitely avoid Palmer & Partners.

Not great. Slow and communications are shoddy. Unless you’re paying them money they’re very poor to deal with

Personally I have never had any time for estate agents because of there attitude. The Ladies I have dealt with at Palmers are the total exception, very honest, caring and extremely helpful.

Buying a house through them, Jess was able to instantly clear a logjam with my conveyancer with a single phonecall, and now I'm about to reach completion 2 months earlier than my conveyancer suggested! Always courteous, helpful, and reachable on the phone. Good estate agents deserve the credit.
