GooglePurchase of Our first house and Palmer snell delivered a five star service. From the first call with Shahob to completion day, we had a great experience with Palmer snell. From Gavin(the mortgage advisor), Adam (the manager), Paula Barnes (the sales progressor), Shahob ( the sales negotiator) it was great service and experience. Our purchase of the property was a long journey with lots of ups and downs but at last we reached there, Hoorraaay. All the best for the future and thanks again.

GoogleAfter signing on with a local independent agent who had no time for late appointments, phone calls, or follow ups I gave these guys a go as Tom was my second choice. Knowing they work late and had an in house progress chaser, I decided it was worth the extra £600 in order to sell during the stamp duty holiday. Buyers came and went, solicitors were painfully slow and panic up and down the line set in for timely completion. Sadly though once a sale was agreed their once a week progress chase was not enough. Yes it was mayhem during a pandemic though Adam was hopeless and made things up and Tom was too busy. Kelsey however was the unsung hero, even though it wasn't her job, she thankfully took the reigns, so gets five stars. I probably drove her mad but she diligently bent over backwards to help my inexperienced buyer with a cheap as chips cowboy solicitor push things through. She went above and beyond to the point of ringing round on her days off. So well done Kelsey, you brought up the stars for this branch...all on your own.

GoogleI would like to express my sincere gratitude to Paula Barnes from Palmer Snell for her exceptional support throughout the sale of my property. The process was far more complicated and time-consuming than anticipated, and there were moments when I considered pulling out due to the frustrations along the way. However, Paula’s unwavering commitment and dedication made all the difference. From the moment the sale was agreed, she kept me informed with regular updates and worked tirelessly, especially during the final weeks, putting in more than 100% effort to ensure the sale was completed. I am truly thankful for Paula's assistance, and I have nothing but praise for her professionalism and support during this challenging time.

GoogleViewed a house we really liked, and the agent encouraged us to put in an offer, telling us we were in a strong position, even though there was already another offer on the table. We took time off work to go through their finance checks and speak to their mortgage advisers, only for them to completely ghost us afterwards. It’s clear they used us to drive up the other offer. Anastasia Ricketts handled this incredibly unprofessionally. Don’t sell your house through this agency, they don’t have your best interests at heart. Our offer was higher than what the house ended up selling for!

GoogleWhere to begin ... I had my property on the market with PB for 3 months, in that time I had 2 viewings. one day I get a hand written letter from Adam at Palmer Snell trying to get my business, I called Adam straight away and secured a package that worked for both of us. Before my property even went live with them, I had Shahob and Anastasia calling everyone they could think of and subsequently arranged 4 viewings within 2 days, one of which resulted in an offer today. It is still early days, but I have every confidence in the staff here that this will go through, or if it doesn't, then I know they will find someone else very quick. I wish I went here in the first place, they have been incredible from the start! I am soooooo grateful for that little hand written note through my door! Thank you all :)

GoogleI purchased my first home with Palmer Snell and I couldn't have asked for a more straightforward and stress free process. Amelia looked after me from the initial viewing right the way through to completion. She was quick to respond to any queries I had and was very professional throughout. It's a daunting prospect buying your first home, but Amelia and the team at Palmer Snell couldn't have made it any easier and made it an overall positive experience from start to finish - very thankful and wouldn't hesitate to use Palmer Snell in the future!

GoogleVery low level of customer service, my sale completed at 12.30 it took palmer snell 2.5 hours to ring me an inform me of this, not impressed with the attitude little to no interaction throughout the sale I would not recommend to anyone, if you find a property with them ask the vendor to put it on the market with another agent and you might get somewhere.

GoogleTerrible estate agents. So unhelpful and genuinely felt like they didn't care.
Viewed a property and showed alot of interest, made a call to make a 2nd viewing the day after was told I'd get a call back from Amelia and never heard. Sent an email that same evening asking some questions, still have never had a response to that. Eventually got the 2nd viewing booked and then when it came to the day I rang to confirm to be told it hadn't been confirmed with the vendor and that they would let us know when we could get booked in. Left it a few days and as hadn't heard asked my partner to call up as I was fed up of getting nowhere, to be told that it's been sold. Such a shame that the service wasnt what it should have been and don't want to deal with Palmer Snell again.

GoogleI trusted Palmer Snell with selling my property. On one of the viewings, without me being present as I had given them my key, breakages took place. This included cracking 2 tiles on my bathroom floor. A tumbler was also cracked so it was quite obvious this had been dropped on the floor. It doesn't take a brain of Britain to know it was Palmer Snell or somebody they were showing round. Adam Sarson came on the phone today and gave me a load of attitude and denied it was anything to do with Palmer Snell. I'm disgusted and will be taking this matter further! I would thoroughly advise anyone to give Palmer Snell a very wide berth!!

GoogleRude, arrogant and unprofessional. The manager Adam Sarsons and his lacky Tom have been marketing the property below mine and decided rather than using photographs of the garden belonging to that flat they would use photos of my garden instead. Misleading and a misrepresentation of the property they are trying to sell. When approached regading this they were rude, dismissive, arrogant, they lied and wrote a false statement to cover their own backs. Their area complaints manager made sure the photographs were removed after the manager lied serveral times and said it had already been done. They have now put a video of my garden up. Typical representation of all that gives estate agents a bad name! Avoid like the plague! Infact avoid like Covid!
