Palmer Snell in Taunton is an absolutely dreadful letting agent. When they are organising the contract ok, however when it comes to issues with the property such as heating not working leaks, water ingress, cooker not working and dangerous and many other issues, things DONT get dealt with.Weeks without heating or hot water, nothing done repairs promised and don't happen.Absolutely useless Letting agent

I recently rented a flat with Palmer Snell in Bournemouth. Normally finding the right place and moving can be challenging. However, this was not the case with Palmer Snell. Kayleigh was fantastic from the start arranging the viewing considering my availability and making sure my move went smoothly. I would highly recommend this agency. Thank you:)

TrustpilotDO NOT USE
We placed a house to be sold with Parker Snell Bournemouth. After the initial flurry to sign us it was noticed that they had not advertised our house to the market and we were told that this was due to illness. A buyer did come forward, however Parmer Snell were not proactive in any way and the sale fell through.

GoogleI called on Friday to arrange a viewing of a flat for the Saturday and was told I would receive a confirmation text soon. Later that day as I had not received this I called and left a message to confirm the viewing but received no call back. On the Saturday we waited outside the property ans no one came so I called and was told sorry it was not booked in. I was told the person I need to speak with was not in to book this in and they will call me back later this has not happened. I would avoid buying from them but also definitely not sell via them as they don't seem in a hurry to sell properties.NegativeResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

Another Estate agent that will lose you 50k to 100k by selling undervalued properties! It appears that most Estate Agents in Weymouth are probably the worst in the country, they clearly do not understand the local market in particular Chickerell. They don’t do their homework and will lose your hard earned monies by giving your houses away!

GoogleHaving recently bought a property through Auction with Palmer Snell, I was assisted in the latter stages by Branch Manager, Conor, who was able to pull all parties together and drive the exchange through within a 48 hour period. Great Agency work - getting all parties to focus on the outstanding points and get the deal contractual. Would recommend.

TrustpilotAbsolutely disgusting service
Absolutely disgusting service. After being told on Thursday 28/3/24 I was accepted for a rental property at close of working day. It was a bank holiday weekend so couldn’t contact with the information they needed. After trying constantly phoning from Spain to repeatedly get answer machine no call back or acknowledgment from them in any way. After finally being able to speak to the person dealing with it to be told that they are sorry owners have decided to go with someone else. A bank holiday is out of anyone’s control. I feel this is disgusting on palmer snells behalf .. could never recommend them.

GoogleWe have had a terrible experience with Palmer Snell Westbourne. We have been trying to sort out an issue with a letting since the end of May. I have had to call multiple times, most of the time I get a message service, and send multiple emails, many of my emails go unanswered. I would not recommend them at all!

TrustpilotIf you’re renting, don’t use Palmer Snell
Would I choose to rent through this company again? Absolutely not. They rented me a house with some of the owners belongings still inside, not advertised, and then expected me to look after and store them. I have had an issue for over a year with continued new ‘property managers’, each one not dealing with the issue and saying the issue was never passed over whilst continuing to raise the rent. As soon as a property comes up in the area I will be quickly jumping ship.

I just booked a property visit. Meeting at 16.45, I don't have a car so I took the bus from work, got out 1 hr earlier, bus late 10 min, I told the miss that would lead the visit that I would be late, just to be called a liar on the phone after 5 minutes, crying herself that she waited in the rain and closed the call. I didn't even bother to get down from the bus.

TrustpilotAWFUL SERVICE THROUGHOUT
CHRISTCHURCH BRANCH - AWFUL SERVICE, I WOULD AVOID AT ALL COSTS - I asked for my home to be valued. Firstly, I was given the wrong time via e-mail. However, I waited in for the appointment, and waited.... 40 mins later called the office and waited a further 20 minutes for a call back and explanation. I was then called by the Assistant Branch Manager (Amanda) who came across as very arrogant quoting office procedure and saying she'd called (which she hadn't). She didn't even apologise saying 'people often aren't in' Ah so you just don't turn up then? I won't be using the services of this amateur organisation.
