Excellent communication throughout, even with a buyer dropping out last minute, it was on the market the next day and 3 viewings arranged and sold within 2 days

All staff that I spoke to were professional and keen to work to help me with the buying process. Even when solicitors were slowing things down, they called and advocated for me to ensure a quicker process was achieved. Good communication and very friendly staff. Would definitely recommend.

I have been using their service for few years, and I must say, it exceeded my expectations in every way! If you're considering them, here's why I think it's worth it: Informative: The description and guidance provided by them were spot on. Everything was clear and well-explained, making the process (or setup) straightforward even for someone new. Polite Service: From my interaction with the team, it’s evident that they genuinely care about their customers. They were patient with all my questions, making me feel valued throughout the experience. Helpful Guidance: If you’re unsure about where to start or how to get the most out of this, don’t worry, they offer incredible resources and step-by-step support. This helped me make an informed decision without feeling rushed. I highly recommend them if you’re looking for something reliable, user-friendly, and backed by a team that truly supports you.

Me and my partner are very happy and pleased with the customer service by Stephenson Browne. Especially, Sharon Warrender was very helpful and great at sorting everything for us that we needed to be able to rent our property, highly recommend. Her communication was prompt and clear, addressing all of our concerns and keeping us informed at every stage. We are now happily settled in our new home.

The sale of my mother's house (family home) was handled efficiently, communication was very good, everything was done very considerately and respectfully, the sale went through smoothly, it was made as simple as possible. From first advertising to completion of sale was less than 3 months. Very pleased amd would definitely recommend the firm.

We needed to get a tenant in to our property as the old tenant was moving out. I contacted several estate agents and Stephenson Brown just seemed more genuine. We needed the agent to manage the property as we no longer live in the area. From our first contact with Sarah all the staff we have spoke to Sharon, Heather and Pam have been great. Nothing seems to much trouble and they are always willing to help in any way. We were a little sceptical at first dealing with an estate agent as we have had in the past a bad experience with another agent who promised the earth but did absolutely nothing. Stephenson Brown lined up tenants and vetted them to worm out time wasters as well as doing background checks. They showed the tenants around and reported back to us how everything was going. We needed to get some trees cut lower in the rear garden and Sarah went to the property to take pictures for us so we could see what the workers had done. Going forward we just hope all goes well working with the agent. So if you are looking for an agent who is up front and honest and who does what it says on the tin, then dont look any further. There costs are good also.

Well this will be the easiest review I will ever complete as Stephenson Browne made the selling of our property somewhat less stressful and any problems that did arise were dealt with swiftly and in a timely manner. As a first time seller Stephenson and Browne guided me through the process from day one to the very end. Their response to emails was second to none no chasing up for updates. Response was same day or even within the hour. Would I recommend Stephenson Browne without hesitation special mention to Ellie Forrester, Toria Mallaburn, Natasha Walther and Samantha Stone. All of you were friendly, honest and professional throughout, Samantha was especially outstanding dealing with the completion of the sale I look forward to working with you all in the future should I need to buy or sell my property.

Kelly was fantastic. She understood that our home was not your standard beige box and marketed it well to appeal to tenants that would treat it with respect. We've met the tenant and they seem lovely. The process was swift, straightforward and Kelly was always available to talk us through and questions we had.
