I changed letting agents because my previous agents were a large national company and I though the service was poor. I have found all the staff at Sarah Mains helpful and conscientious. ( they always ring back) My flat was let within three days of going on the market. Thank you Scott, Elliot, Heidi and the rest of the staff at Sarah Mains.
Many thanks for your five star review John. Sarah Mains

From listing the house we had more than one buyer within a week. Which is incredible. I am regularly taking advice from Paula and the team with regard to the property I am buying - as its not straightforward. I am able to say that the help and guidance is appreciated, I almost feel like we are friends rather than them providing a service.
We really appreciate your five star review. I know that Paula is delighted with your comments, many thanks Sarah Mains

My family engaged Sarah Mains to sell a much loved family home. The service we received was fantastic from start to finish. We immediately felt that we were in safe and confident hands from friendly, knowledgeable and above all professional people who cared about giving the best service possible. We were kept up to date every step of the way and received invaluable advice on how to proceed - especially important for those of us who have not had property market dealings recently. Special thanks to Donna for ensuring we got over the line and sincere thanks to Manager, Susan and all her team for everything- you are brilliant!
Thank you for taking the time to leave this fabulous review Deb, we really appreciate it. I know that Donna and Susan are thrilled with your comments. Sarah Mains

Struggle to give one star. I was supposed to be buying a property through auction at Low Fell branch. I won the auction and paid my deposit this was end of March. At this time I had sold my family home and was going through a separation. I was told that the property had a problem with the freehold. I was also told that the property had been sold twice before on the open market but had fallen through because of the freehold. After taking advice from the auction manager, he explained to me that an indemnity insurance would solve this problem and any high street lender would give me the mortgage. I took his advice as these people are supposed to be professional. The freehold had still not been resolved but the owner of the property agreed I could still move in and rent the property until the freehold was resolved. I did move into the property in April. Then weeks later my solicitor informed me that the indemnity insurance was not acceptable as the actual freehold did not even exist, meaning the property was not registered at all. This was going to take a long time to register the freehold. Cut a long story short, I came back off holiday on 15th September to a section 21 notice from the owner. This was giving me two months to find a new home, bearing in mind I had stupidly spent thousands on the property as I was continuesly told the property would be mine eventually. I have made numerous calls to the auction manager and the branch manager and even sent an email to Sarah Mains the director, she has not replied. I\'m now thousands of pounds out of pocket on antidepressants suffering from stress and anxiety. It has taken me weeks and weeks to get my deposit back which I received on 1st November. I am now expected to find a suitable property in 6 days. I will keep you updated and thank you for taking the time to read this. Joanne New review
I am concerned to see that you have left a one star Google review Joanne. As you are aware the Auction Department were advised by the seller's solicitor that this property could be offered for sale by auction. All information from the seller's solicitor was conveyed to you in good faith. In order to assist you an agreement was made allowing you to rent the property until completion took place. Issues came up during the conveyance that we were not aware of which meant that completion did not take place when expected. I have been on annual leave but I will now respond to you personally in writing. Sarah Mains

Five stars is not enough. In an awful housing market, Kelly who deals with offers became like a friend (because we had offered on so many housesβ¦.) she was always warm, kind and so helpful. When we eventually had an offer accepted we dealt with Donna. Sarah Mains wasnβt our estate agent, but the estate agent of the lady we were buying from, so there was no need for Donna to go above and beyond for us, but she did, all the time. With difficult solicitors, Donna was an absolute god send, none of my daily (sometimes multiple times daily) phone calls were ever met with anything but loveliness and professionalism. It has been six months of stress and sleepless night that would have been a hundred times worse without Sarah Mains and their amazing team.
This is a wonderful review Carolyn which we really appreciate. I know that Kelly and Donna are thrilled to be recognised. Many thanks. Sarah Mains.

Bought a house with them it's hard to get in contact with sales progression once your offer is accepted I just sent emails in the end as that was the fastest and easiest way to get a reply, Rebecca was very helpful with the purchase and made sure we were kept updated in general it was a very smooth sale from both sides and sarah mains were a really helpful estate agents, the only thing we were unhappy with was being dumped with a broken fridge to dispose of and the estate agents and solicitors not taking any responsibility so beware if you buy a house through sarah mains and someone leaves it dumped with stuff inside you will have to deal with it out of your own pocket even though they made a profit off of you, when you bought the house
Many thanks for taking the time to leave your Google view. Your feedback is extremely useful to us and I am sorry that it was difficult to contact Sales progression, we will certainly be looking at that. Also, apologies that you were left with a fridge to dispose of. I hope that you are now settled and will be very happy in your new home. Sarah Mains.

We completed today and must say the service from Sarah Mains has been spot on from start to finish. Totally modern, thoroughly embracing technology which is essential but, equally important, providing a level of service that is all-too-often hard to find these days. You feel properly "owned" and valued by one of the team at each stage of the process. Special thanks to Rachael, Andrew, Kelly and Donna in this regard but, really, thanks to every one of the team for their part in making a very stressful time go particularly well.
Many thanks for your wonderful review Ernest. I know that the Newcastle team are delighted with your comments. Sarah Mains
5/5
Simply excellent. Donna Bell in the completions team is the only reason why my sale completed and whole chain was able to close. She went above and beyond with every buyer, agent and solicitor in the chain and even when everything went sideways, she was at hand and knew exactly what to do to get the sale (at any point in the chain) back on track. I simply can't thank her enough... And whilst I initially baulked at the "completions service" as a justification for the extra 0.1% of the sale service charge... I am so glad that i went with Sarah mains rather than another agent who didn't include a completions team. Forget other agents in Whickham and the surrounding area... Sarah mains is the only one I would recommend. Unless Donna Bell moves to another agent :-DPositiveProfessionalism, Value
Thank you for your wonderful review Vicky. Donna is delighted with your comments and I am sure she will be staying with the Sarah Mains team! Sarah Mains

I called Sarah Mains to check out a property I was interested in, but instead I was sent to voice mail and they promised to call me back. And they did, even if it was to inform me that the property was already rented out. I know that replying back is just a simple expectation, but nonetheless I'd like to make my efforts to applaud for that after I was treated with no replies several times from other agencies.
Thank you for taking the time to leave your review Ayumu, I really appreciate it. Sarah Mains
