GoogleMyself and my brother recently had to sell my mum's house after her death. We had already had a stressful 18 month journey through probate and a few months of the house on the market with a not very proactive other agent.
Due to frustration we gave Rook Matthews Sayer a try. They immediately had viewers and an offer, that sadly fell through but straight away they had more viewers arranged and we soon received another offer.
They were in constant communication throughout the process and when there was an issue with first surveyor undervaluing the property they really went out to bat for us and the buyer to get this resolved. They responded to any queries quickly and made the whole process of selling as stress free as possible.
My dealings with estate agents in the past both buying and selling have not been too positive so this was a revelation. I would definitely recommend this Ashington office to anyone in the area.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

Rook Matthews Ponteland staff handled our house sale extremely well and were very professional in their full approach to the transaction.Whilst in the end we did not proceed with the sale this was entirely due to us not being able to find suitable alternative accommodation even though Rook Matthews had found us an extremely patient buyer.It is now our intention to look for another smaller property in a few years when we are a little older and we will have no hesitation in using Rook Matthews Ponteland again.

TrustpilotThe most helpful estate agent known to man!
From the absolute beginning of my house sale journey I have been treated with the upmost respect and nothing was ever a bother. I explained my current situation and the reason why I required such a quick sale and the staff took everything on board and acted promptly. Within 3 days of putting my house up for sale it was sold. I had interest from the very beginning. Michelle and Kate guided me throughout the sale process and we’re very helpful had I needed anything clarified, Dawn also supported as she chased the buyers solicitors on several occasions for answers. Thank you to everyone who helped and supported me along this journey. After using a previous estate agent with no luck I really wouldn’t use anyone else. Yous are all amazing and deserve the absolute world!
