Whilst dealing with the staff at Poole Townsend I was always treated with respect and courtesy. I cannot speak highly enough of the girls that helped me through often difficult periods and details that I am not conversant with. I cannot praise them all highly enough. I would not hesitate to recommend dealing with Poole Townsend. My gratitude to you all Ladies.

We used Poole Townsend to sell our house earlier this year while we were overseas. They were very responsive to emails, kept us updated throughout the process and went out of their way to help us. The sales and legal team were very professional and efficient, ensuring that everything went smoothly. A couple of the staff went above and beyond what was expected to help us with some of the issues that we had during the sale during COVID and we were very grateful for that. We thoroughly recommend Poole Townsend.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

Poole Townsend are exceptional in all they do. They sold my property in Dalton, recommended homes to my father when he was moving, sold my mum's house and I can highly recommend, in fact I ALWAYS recommend as after a week of my recent property being freshly on the market with Poole's it sold! Thank you! Thank you! Great Team! Well Done!

On the whole very pleased with you selling our house. As it was a one way sale it was quite straight forward. The reason why I haven’t given 5 stars is because there was a mistake in the written details of the house. And a couple of times after ringing and leaving a message no one got back to me . Very nice staff friendly and helpful, apart from one member of staff who showed people round in about 2 minutes and didn’t seem to know much about it ,

Many thanks to all the staff at Poole Townsend in Kendal. Ours wasn't the most straightforward house to sell but they persevered and we got there in the end. One particular point of praise is the communication received from Poole Townsend throughout the process. I could not have asked for a better service.

Very easy for me to leave a 5 star review having recently purchased a new home for me and my family through Poole Townsend in Kendal. A special mention to Carol, Cally and Becky for putting up with me throughout the process and making what can be a stressful move really quite fun. Very lovely and approachable people. Having dealt with several agents in the local area previously I have to say the service received from Poole Townsend was far superior. Thanks again.

Solicitor was always too busy and never researched anything. We did most of the work for him and as soon as the court day was over he kept bumming us off and didn’t follow up.

Poole Townsend have been a pleasure to deal with during the selling and buying of our properties both recently and over the previous years. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable and kept us up to date throughout the process. I would definitely recommend them to anyone wanting to sell their property in the area.

I wanted to say how impressed I am with the service we received from Poole Townsend when selling our daughters flat. After a terrible experience with another local estate agent and the property sticking on the market for over a year, we moved to Poole Townsend who secured a very quick sale. The negotiators kept us updated every step of the way and the solicitors worked very quickly. I would definitely recommend them to anyone wishing to sell in the South Lakeland area.

Very impressed with the Kendal team from the initial valuation with Nikki, to the superb photography by Craig, quality brochure, and excellent friendly service from Cally, Becky and Carol in the office. Keep up the good work!

I don’t often review many things but Poole Townsend seemed oblivious to my situation. After being on the housing market for a number of years with Poole’s. I decided that after a whole twelve viewings (which am assured is a lot) and comments of modernisation being required. Combined with the continual insistence from Poole’s to lower our asking price I decided to redecorate. I temporarily withdrew the house from the market and saved my money and began redecorating which took me over a year to complete. On my return to the market I was informed that I would need a new evaluation of the property due to the length of time off the market. I could appreciate the need for it the house had been on the market for years and things had changed. I had noticed other properties similar to my own had stagnated. The market had slowed down in my area and I knew the implications of this and understood that Poole’s and myself would have to lower the asking price. On the day of the evaluation I was prepared to see some facts and figures and be given some examples of why the property had to have a lower asking price. However the appraiser had a different strategy this was to find the negatives in the property for example. The substandard decorating in some of the rooms, outdated rooms, Age of appliances and the list continues with the only redeeming fact being the one thing out of my control which was the size of the rooms. I found this approach to be insensitive and derogatory. Then with a pleasant smile removes ten thousand pounds from my original asking price. However what was strange was the perplexed look on the appraisers face when I defiantly defend my original asking price. At least the final comment from the appraiser was something that we could both agree on β€œPoole Townsend is not the estate agents for me”. This was my own experience with Poole’s everything is fine until you become a burden. Then it’s comply or be removed.

Would highly recommend Poole Townsend if you are looking for a rental property. The lettings department at Ulverston couldn't have been more helpful and everything was completed in the timeframe we expected.
