Would have liked to give a better review but feel let down was told that the cash buyer for the sale of the property would like to complete asap 4 months later with a lot of chasing on our part it finally happened. Poor correspondence unless it was to get us to reduce the price think they forgot they were working for and being paid by us to secure the best possible price in the shortest time frame for us the client. This is a Shame because we believed they are the best estate agents in Ashington clearly they are notNegativeValue

Hello Alison, We are very disappointed to read this comment, we do take our customer service very seriously. I have spoken to the branch and confirm that as the purchaser regularly buys through Rook Matthews Sayer Ashington the staff were aware that the purchase was through a mortgage, furthermore they were under the impression that you knew this. Perhaps the confusion may have stemmed from the buyer wishing to complete quickly. While we appreciate the time constraints you experienced, the branch staff regularly chased the mortgage lender, who apologised for the delays and stated they were due to Covid-19. A further delay was incurred due to the purchasers’ solicitor moving house, which prevented the funds being released until the address was updated. We understand the frustration you felt due to the price reduction, however, due to the results of the survey the purchasers’ felt as though they had to reduce their offer in order to complete the work required. We have received confirmation from the team that your brother was updated at all stages of the sale and received contact at least twice a week, the staff were informed that he would be the main point of contact and not yourself. We are disappointed to receive this review after you visited the branch upon completion and thanked the staff personally for all their hard work and determination and did not mention any of the aforementioned concerns or issues. We’re sorry you felt you needed to leave us this review. We are very well known for our excellent customer service and it is just one of the reasons why Rook Matthews Sayer sells more homes in the region than any other estate agent. If you would like to discuss the matter further please feel free to email marketing@rmsestateagents.co.uk and we will be able to assist you further.

Great service. Really friendly staff and very professional. House was put on the market and within 24 hours we had viewings booked throughout the week. It sold within 9 days. Even through we were right in the middle of selling and buying when lock down happen and also having a buyer who lived aboard the Amble team went above and beyond to get us moved as soon as possible. They chased up solicitors to help move things on more quickly. Hannah and Hayley were great , no task was too big and they always kept us well informed. They are a credit to the company. Thanks for all your help. Claire & Tony

Brilliant service from this branch. We have just purchased our first house and everyone went above and beyond to help us through out the purchase. Kept us up to date constantly and even chased up solicitors on our behalf. We can’t believe how quick the sale was. Thanks very much! We are now very happy home owners!

Rook Matthews Sayer have restored my faith in rental agencies after it had been completely shattered by the utterly dire Groves Residential. RMS are efficient, proactive, reactive, organised and display good communication skills. The application process was a very easy and smooth transaction and I was kept informed of progress. I now have a place that I'm proud to call home and with a brilliant landlord.  Thank you so much Cristy and Summer!
