Valuation services- very professional. Punctual, honest and helped a lot!

Utterly poor. I was interested in a commercial property and spoke with William Downing who told me that the property was no longer available and hadn't been available for over a week. I told him that the property shouldn't be listed on a 'live' website if this was the case, yet instead of actively listening, acknowledging that the problem is real and apologising for the trouble, he just said it's an IT issue. Three days later, the same commercial property is still listed as available to rent. Pygott & Crone and William Downing are a perfect example of bumbling incompetence. Avoid!

Excellent service throughout

Excellent service throughout. We have found Pygott and Crone extremely good at marketing, advertising and communicating with ourselves. Pre sale all the way through to completion has been seemless. Particular thanks go to Fiona Hodgkiss for her expediency, clarity adn friendliness throguhout and Aiden Turner for his advice and photo skills whilst putting the brochure together.

Pygott & Crone are absolutely amazing

Pygott & Crone have been absolutely amazing from start to finish, if i required any information they don't hesitate at all to find things out and help. I personally dealt with Fiona at the Grimsby branch and she has been so helpful. The whole team that were involved were very helpful and i would recommend massively.

Poor Customer Service

Too many issues to list all of them, however, key ones includes: Never answering the phone despite calling on different days and at different times. Response to emails were typically longer than 24 hrs and in most cases 48 hrs. Lack of understanding of offer details I made by the Branch Manager! Incoherent final email from the Branch Manager to inform me another offer had been made that was accepted. This was not an auction property, I would have thought the agency would have given me the opportunity to increase my offer, no such luck. Will avoid contact in the future.

Disappointed and poor service

Disappointed and poor service. Property wasn’t pushed, no feedback given from viewings, sometimes weren’t even informed or viewings. When I collected the keys to go with a new agent they gave me the wrong keys!

Do not engage with this company

Do not engage with this company, there is a £300.00 fee whether they sell or not, and as they take on everything they can, this is how their money is made!!

Do not engage with this company

Do not engage with this company, there is a £300.00 fee whether they sell or not, and as they take on everything they can, this is how their money is made!!After all the enthusiasm and "feelgood" of thier initial visit and instruction, it is almost impossible to get their attention. It began with every reason imaginable given why the "sales" team could not come around after the instruction, and they failed to arrange even one viewing from the eight they claimed to have matched to the property; ultimately the number of potential buyers they claimed to have was the reason for engageing with them. When we questioned them some time after instruction why it was that we had not had a viewing more excuses continued; every excuse from it wasn't what their clients were looking for, to it being too expensive! Based on this feedback we instructed them to return to the potential purchasors and offer it at £100,000.00 less. Having removed all the 'obstcals' there was still no response, and they became increasingly difficult to contact, to the point that we attempted to speak with four of their directors, none of whom were available. Ultimately we were told by a receptionist to stop contacting them. When we finally contacted Craig Stones, Branch Manager, he told us that he had to get his head together (?) and that he should never have taken the property on. We agreed to give 28 days notice, but discovered that they had ceased all marketing immidiately, and are now looking for £300.00 which they feel they are entitled to as it was in the contract. A contract goes two ways so off to Court it trots!! They had done nothing and stated to us that they should have never taken the instruction on. This is one fact that we are in agreement. Furthermore the fact that they are looking for payment for taking it on is not only ludicrous, but offensive. It was the highest valued property on their books and it was a clear case of P&Crone confusing ability with ambition as it was way beyond their capability to SELL a property. Save your time and money, put it on Rightmove yourself!

In a period of house price drops and slow sales. Pygott & Crone did us proud. How often can you say that the photos and sales pitch look to good! We had viewings and a sale well in the time frame expected. I would deffinately go with them again if we were to sell in the future. Thank you and service is not a thing of the past, Purple bricks is not for us.

Shocking. Was going to let the poor communication go because property completed and I no longer needed to deal with them. I am missing keys so I have contacted… apparently I have lost them! No responsibility taken for anything! Should this review get a response I expect it will contain further justification for their poor customer service and accusations of inaccuracies rather than solutions.

Me and my husband would like to thank Tom, Demi & Luke at Pygott & Crone (Grantham Branch). From start to finish we received an excellent service. We would also like to thank Alisha Hate (Lincoln Branch) for all her help with our buyer's solicitor.

Excellent service from start to finish. Fraser came round to value my property and it then went on the market. After 3 weeks I had a buyer. I had never bought or sold a property before and was out of my comfort zone, but Fiona dealt with all my queries and kept me up to date with progress. Fiona knew I was anxious and she went above and beyond to keep me sane. She dealt with queries from my buyer promptly and I was confident to leave matters in her hands. I could not have got through the whole matter without her. If Fiona was not available to speak to then another member of staff would help or pass a message to her. Everyone in the office was friendly and there to help when needed. I cannot praise Fiona highly enough for getting through the process.
