Thank you all!

I was delighted with RMS and how they supported us through the conveyancing process and how they kept us informed. Our mortgage advisor was fantastic and went above and beyond for us, thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Amazing Alistair - Ashington branch

Alistair at the Ashington branch was amazing throughout our first mortgage experience. He was always available whenever we needed to question something or needed some advice. We would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for mortgage advice. He always tried his best to put us at ease and make the whole process stress free as possible. The ladies at the branch were also very friendly whenever we needed to call into the branch.

Friendly and Helpful

Even though we never completed on the property we wanted to this was no fault of the agent. We were always made to feel valued and not just treated as a number. Stephanie in particular was really friendly and helpful throughout the process and I would definitely recommend them to anyone.

Competitive fees, prompt response and follow up to queries. Anne Brodie and her team provided everything we could have asked for. From the excellent photos and marketing of the property, dealing with buyers and follow up, they were first class in all respects.

We purchased a property through RMS and I'd highly recommend them. They kept us updated frequently and were contactable when needed. The team at Morpeth are very friendly. We're hoping we won't need them but we would use them in the future if we did!

He patiently guided me through each step, ensuring I understood the complexities of the mortgage process and the intricacies of the property market.Neil's proactive approach and attention to detail were truly commendable. He consistently provided valuable insights and valuable information that helped me make informed decisions. His prompt responses to my queries and concerns were reassuring, making me feel supported and well-informed throughout the journey.I cannot thank Neil enough for his professionalism, patience, and genuine commitment to helping me find the perfect home.

As buyers, we found Rook Matthews Sayer, Whitley Bay to be friendly and helpful, and proactive in keeping all parties in the loop. In fact, throughout the process, we had more frequent and meaningful communication with RMS than with our solicitor ( thank you Suzanne, and all the team!). Would recommend them without hesitation.

Agent replied · 14 June 2024

Thank you so much Gill for the kind words towards RMS Whitley Bay. We know how hard it can be to get updates from solicitors, this is why we have dedicated sales progressors to help take some of that stress or uncertainty away. We shall pass on your lovely review to our team, we're sure Suzanne especially will be delighted to receive this.

My wife and I decided to sell our house in early 2022. We met with several Estate Agents but decided to use RMS in Whitley Bay after meeting Alison and being assured of the service they would provide to us. I can say now she did not overstate the level of service they would provide or the competent way they would advertise and handle all enquires for our house. We found a buyer after one week on the market, we actually had 6 offers in during the first weekend's viewing and nearly 20 actual viewings. Alison and the girls, especially Jan kept us fully informed of progress. Unfortunately our potential buyer dropped out due to personal reasons when we were quite a way down the process. I think the RMS staff were almost as upset as we were. The stress of the fall through of the sale badly affected my wife and I so we took our house of the market. We decided to try again early this year, although the market was radically different to the one in 2022. We had no hesitation in putting it up again with Alison and the team About 5 weeks ago we completed the sale of our house. Alison, Jan and everyone else kept us fully informed of progress once again and worked with us to ensure, as best they could, nothing went wrong this time. The team in RMS Whitley Bay are second to none. The customer service is first class and I cannot recommend them enough. Thank you Alison, Jan and everyone at the branch.

I highly recommend Rook Matthews Sayers West Denton office for your house sale. It’s a personal place to deal with. My sale was dealt with very professionally. The staff were friendly, helpful and courteous at all times and helped me through the process, which took some of the inevitable pressure off me. The pictures that were taken made the house look very attractive and I’m sure helped generate interest. Edits to the sales information were done with the minimum of fuss, which was really helpful. The staff got it! If I had to leave a message, this was always returned promptly at all times, which is what you need. Full marks.

Excellent service from Neil Walton in Gosforth Branch

We’ve recently moved into our new home and are grateful to Neil Walton from the Gosforth Branch for guiding us through the mortgage process. Mortgage rates were going up at the time, but Neil was able to get us the best deal possible. He was very proactive in completing the application and chasing it up, and he kept us in the loop the whole time. I would highly recommend Neil to anyone looking to buy a house.

Fantastic mortgage advisor

Would highly recommend Alistair, the mortgage advisor at the ashington branch. He kept us updated throughout the whole process, was always available to us and explained everything clearly. Alistair made the process of remortgaging as stress free as possible given everything going on in the housing market at the moment will definitely be using him again!
