Staff dealt with our sale very efficiently at all times, with courtesy and professionalism. Our queries were answered quickly. Unfortunately our sale fell through due to the buyer pulling out, but Angela informed us with tact and kindness. Special mention to Wendy, Angela and Lily. Highly recommended agent.

House Purchase

House PurchaseSian and Shannon at the Ponteland brach were brilliant. Our house purchase was stressful, to say the least at times.

We would like to say a big thank you to Bruce, Claire at Rook Matthew Sayers, West Denton. They were very professional, helpful and knowledgable. The sale was unfortunately delayed and made difficult by the solicitors but Claire remained calm and patient, and was the one to push the sale along for my late fathers property. Everyone at West Denton Rook Matthew Sayers were very supportive and nothing was a problem to them and I would not hesitate to recommend their team to anyone.
