Wouldn't recommend anyone but Whitegates!

We used Whitegates to list & sell a house in the Barnsley town centre area. Having chosen these from many other competitors it was safe to say we chose the best in the business! We were never disappointed and the service we received was impeccable!We dealt with Beth & Darren for the sale of this house. Beth was brilliant to have on side and was highly informative every step of the way! Taking a lot of the stress away! Her attitude, knowledge and professionalism was exceptional, credit to the team, would highly recommend Beth to anyone who is buying or selling through Whitegates!Darren dealt with the valuation of the house and we could not be happier for the price we received for it! His advice and wisdom in the property sector is definitely worth listening to and because of this brilliant service the house was sold in less than a week!We would highly recommend Whitegates to anyone who is wanting to buy/sell a house.

Lovely, professional and motivated team

Recently moved after being in quite a long and often complex chain. Debbie, Terri and Beth have been amazing and worked extremely hard to keep it all together. My hubby wanted to pull out a couple of times (due to issues and delays along the 5 person chain) but I convinced him to carry on as I was impressed with the sales team’s service and efforts to keep it moving along. I’m so glad I was right and that the sales team were so brilliant! It was clear at times to see that they had to deal with a lot of pressure and stress with our buyer, vendor and their solicitors (and probably even us!) - even right at the end on completion date (thank you so much for that Debbie, it was getting a little fraught so appreciated your work with the solicitors that day!). I’d like to say that Steve who did the valuation and subsequent brochure was also really nice and clearly knew the market well. We were really impressed with the brochure and the pictures he took. Compared with other EA photos we’d seen we think these really stood out. I’d definitely come back to Whitegates if I was moving again.

Whitegates recently sold a property for us in Barnsley, the service from beginning to end was fabulous and communication was outstanding. Debbie at the Barnsley Office was particularly helpful and was a fabulous communicator between myself and the purchaser, nothing was too much trouble for her and this progressed a sale which had started to falter. I truly believe that Debbie's progression of this matter has concluded a sale quicker than it would have completed without her involvement. Well done Whitegates it was a pleasure dealing with you all and a big thanks to Debbie, she is definitely a great asset for Whitegates.

I recently worked with Whitegates Barnsley for selling and purchasing a property. The team, including Will, Sarah, and Steve, were professional, friendly, and efficient, helping us navigate through a challenging time. They managed to sell our house quickly, which was impressive. However, the conveyancing process recommended by Whitegates was frustratingly slow, dragging on for months with unclear updates. While the team itself was supportive, the drawn-out and confusing conveyancing left me somewhat disappointed. Overall, a mix of great personal service but hindered by process delays.

Erin · 6 December 2024

Dear Erin, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're thrilled that Will, Sarah, and Steve provided professional and friendly support, ensuring a quick sale. We're sorry to hear the conveyancing process didn't meet your expectations. Your insights are invaluable and we're looking into improving our recommendations to ensure a smoother experience in the future. We appreciate your patience

Thank you to all the team at Whitegates. From our initial valuation with Darren, we felt that Barnsley Whitegates were the right estate agents for us. Honest and never pushy, with great local knowledge and friendly approach to selling houses. Francesca and Debbie arranged all our viewing very swiftly and we sold our house within 5 days of it being on the market. Nothing was every too much hassle and a special thanks to Debbie and Terri for chasing all the way through, especially when our solicitors were slow off the mark. Would definitely recommend. Thank you again!

Amazing! We have rented a property from Whitegates for over 2 years now and could not wish for a better landlord. Rachel and the team are all so helpful, friendly and reliable and have always been there when we need them for absolutely anything. Very professional service and we feel highly valued as tenants, which is something we haven’t experienced as tenants with other agencies in Barnsley. Thankyou so much Whitegates!PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

As first time sellers we were naturally apprehensive about the house moving process, we needn't have been with Whitegates Barnsley. We had four agencies value our home and Darren was by and far the most clear and professional of the lot. We felt his advice and approach was honest and fair and the package that Whitegates offered was the best value for money of the agencies we met - and by a significant amount. Nothing was too much trouble when it came to marketing the property - new external photographs were taken on a sunnier day, without us prompting, and the brochure really helped present the property in its best light. Anyone we spoke to in the office was really helpful and friendly when arranging viewings and when the offers came forward we felt well equipped to proceed. In fact, you sold our home at the asking price within three weeks of going to market - completely exceeding our expectations. It's been a real pleasure dealing with you - it's felt a breeze, the most stressful aspect of this process has been hoovering the house before any viewing! I think that's a good enough sign that you have chosen the right estate agency. Should we be buying or selling in the Barnsley area again, we would have absolutely zero hesitation in dealing with Whitegates again.

We dealt with Graham, we signed for a property but unfortunately due to a problem beyond anyone’s control our house became inhabitable so we had to cancel. Graham then went out of his way to try and find us a house. Unfortunately the houses we saw weren’t right for us but Graham was amazing.

Will is a superhero😀

This is the second house that I have sold with Whitegates Barnsley in the last 12 months . Great service. No typical estate agent ‘hype’ . Just down to earth good old fashioned service. They always return calls promptly and remember your circumstances and chase solicitors when things appear to be going slowly. They’re in your corner. Similarly both my buyers had said how good they’ve been with them too. Finally what can I say about Will - apart from he’s fantastic. He’s so professional, knowledgeable and above all one of the good guys. He tells you as it is and gives great advice. When Steve valued the house he was honest and took the time to explain his decision to me. He didn’t try and inflate the price just to get my business. Yes it cost me money to sell the house - but my goodness they earned it and took a huge weight off my shoulders. Thank you

Rented a property managed by Whitegates for 18month. The team there have been fantastic. Especially Rachel who we have dealt with the most. Always quick at getting back to me, even out of hours. All team always friendly and always happy to help. Only moved out as I purchased a property and based on my experience if I was ever to sell my property it would be through Whitegates.
