GoogleI recently purchased a property through Clifford Smith Sutcliffe, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. As soon as the property went on the market, I got in touch, viewed it within a few days, and had my offer accepted shortly after.
Scott showed me around the property, and it was great to see a familiar face, I’ve viewed several properties over the years and often seemed to cross paths with him! Hopefully I won’t be seeing you again anytime soon, Scott!
Keelie kept in regular contact throughout the process while things were progressing with the solicitors. She was always polite, helpful, and brought a really positive, vibrant energy to every interaction. Having her as my main point of contact made the whole experience much more enjoyable. I’ve noticed other reviews mentioning Keelie as well, which clearly reflects how valuable she is to the business.
It’s just a shame you don’t offer lettings services, as I would have happily continued with you for the next step too!

GoogleWe recently bought a house listed by Clifford Smith Sutcliffe and we can't thank them enough. They were professional and kind from the beginning of the process to the very end.
Keelie was lovely, reassuring, always knew her stuff and would go above and beyond to help get things sorted. We also had some contact with Peter who seemed just as great.
The firm as a whole was efficient, well-organised and experienced. Everything needed from their end happened quickly and seamlessly.
We absolutely recommend Clifford Smith Sutcliffe.

GoogleI recently purchased a house from Clifford Smith Sutcliffe. Holly, Scott and Keeley were all great when it came to arranging viewings and Holly especially was great in answering any questions about the property.
The communication between Holly, the vendors and both sets of solicitors was fantastic which enabled a quick completion.
I am looking to collecting the keys today and moving on with my new house.
I would certainly recommend CSC .
Thanks again to Holly and the team.

GoogleCan’t fault this business…
From the initial house viewing to having my offer accepted, the service provided and communication from CSS has been impeccable. Peter has a lot of patience with his clients and will spend time ensuring you understand everything before proceeding. Peter is always happy to answer any further questions you may have.
Scott gave a really good viewing of the property and had answers to any questions we asked.
I get positive/genuine vibes from these guys , which is hard to find within this field of work. They truly do care about you! Such a fantastic team of people! I look forward to buying my first home with CSS!
Thank you guys 😊

GoogleKeelie has been amazing throughout the entire buying and selling process!
We previously bought and sold back in 2020/2021 through a different estate agents and it was such a long drawn out stressful process which took over 18 months to complete. Which made us nervous about going through this process again.
However Keelie and Darren walked us through every step and we actually accepted an offer before the house went on due to Keelie knowing what potential clients wants and needs are in the housing market, we then completed on our new house in under 12 weeks!! A fantastic team all under one roof and I could not recommend Clifford Smith & Sutcliffe enough!
A huge huge thank you to Keelie in the Estate Agent side of the business and Darren on the solicitors side of the business.

They went the extra mile with various things to ensure completion was quick for myself and the seller of the house. I even got an extra box of chocs. So thanks all for making my first house purchase so smooth and easy.

GoogleWe recently sold our property with Clifford Smith Sutcliffe and could not recommend them enough! The service was brilliant! Everything was clearly explained, we were kept updated throughout and had a full asking price offer on the first day of viewings! All the staff were lovely, very friendly, professional and knowledgable. We mainly spoke with Peter and he was amazing, he always followed through on anything asked, nothing was too much trouble and always responded as soon as possible, we were never kept waiting long! Communication was fab!
We also used their solicitor service and again the service received from Debbie was just as good, could not fault it at all, everything was swiftly dealt with! We did purchase the property using their Solictor service (Debbie) and had no hesitation in returning for the sale! Debbie is very on the ball and gets things done!
Thank you to the entire team, you made the whole process very easy and stress-free!
Highly recommend them for both purchasing and selling!

GoogleAfter having a terrible time with Hilton Horsefall, Clifford Smith Sutcliffe were a dream. From the 1st call, Peter was so friendly, helpful and reassurring, which was ideal after the awful experience we'd had prior to coming to them. Peter talked us through everything and kept those lines of communication open through the the moment we exchanged keys. Scott realistically priced our home, took lovely pictures, and was so respectful of our home.
The team were great and helped us to find the perfect buyers; not only that, but they sold us our perfect forever home too.
Would highly recommend Clifford, Smith, Sutcliffe...thank you so much x

GoogleFantastic service from Scott, Keelie and Peter.
Our house sale was dealt with professionally and we received the best sale price thanks to Keelie’s fantastic negotiation skills.
The whole team are great and really efficient, however Keelie in particular was tenacious in pursuing the whole chain to ensure exchange of contracts.
The chain should have been simple but thanks to solicitors further down the line, it became unnecessarily complicated and frustrating. Despite this, Keelie made sure we sold and that’s exactly what you want in an agent - Kind, considerate, tenacious, and great negotiation skills. She went above and beyond.
Would highly recommend.

GoogleI want to start by saying a huge thank you to Scott, Peter and Keeley for their help with the sale of Mums house. What could have been a difficult procedure was made simple, efficient and altogether more straightforward by their patience and understanding natures. It’s been a pleasure to work with people who understand people. Having a solicitor attached to the estate agents is a genius idea. Steven was easily contactable either directly or through Peter and again dealt with the legal side confidentiality and effectively. I have already recommended your services to a friend who will need you in the future, and I will shout your praises to anyone who will listen. Many thanks again, you’re a wonderful team.

GoogleI scheduled a viewing to visit over the bank holiday long weekend. I made Clifford Smith Sutcliffe aware that I would be travelling from the south coast for this visit. After booking this I had no communication at all. I arrived at the property that we were very keen to put an offer on but the home owner said this had been cancelled and the estate agents told the owners they had informed us via email and phone call this was cancelled. I checked all emails and my call history and other than the initial booking I have had no contact. I have since emailed to clear things up, I emailed Kara to confirm the cancellation and what the homeowner had said but my emails have been ignored. Its really disappointing to have driven nearly 7 hours to be told it was a waste of our time. I would have appreciated a heads up so I didn't have to leave at 5am to make the appointment.

Firstly may I apologise for this oversight on our part.
Unfortunately Kara is no longer with our company though this is not an excuse.
Given it was a fortnight since the appointment was made, the buoyant market locally and the distance you were travelling, we would recommend confirming the appointment over the phone before travelling.
We understand your frustration however and again please accept our apologies. We are proud of our reputation and the positive reviews we receive. My colleague has also tried to contact you by phone this morning if you could return her call.

GoogleAny one looking to sell a house with this agent be warned that they DO NOT TAKE ALL OFFERS TO THE VENDORS… yes this is a legal requirement and an offer for a run down house was refused to be put forward, I deal with a large number of investors and this agent has potential cost the owner thousands…
Thanks for the response Scot… the offer wasn’t 20k under the asking price was it? I would show you the offer but unfortunately your company refused to take the offer to your client. You also mentioned they had given you instructions to refuse any offers of a certain value, this wasn’t told to us and we have the recording of the phone call, so I would appreciate if you didn’t try and change what happened on the call. Also my clients was told you are not part of the TPO yet you have there logos on your website, they said due to not being part of the TPO they didn’t need to take the offer, again this is wrong… it’s worrying a company can get it so wrong when it was a phone call to your clients that would of taken 5min max, then an email ti confirm the offer, I do wonder what else is missed in your company? I would be having a long chat with your staff and informing them of the legal duties if I was you…
You also say your “professional” position, shame you don’t also uphold your “legal” position…

Chris, this review seems a little unfair.
As was explained to you over the phone this afternoon, either yourself or your colleague who lives down South would need to view the property. We have had our fingers burnt before so I am sure you understand.
These are also our sensitive-clients instructions who is aware of the ‘run-down’ condition of her late father’s property.
Our client has also asked us to decline offers below a certain threshold on her behalf, particularly those twenty thousand pounds below the current asking price.
We are still happy to let you view the property and hope you understand our ‘professional’ position therefore.
