TrustpilotGreat service from Robinsons Sedgefield
We couldn’t recommend Robinsons Sedgefield more - Ryan went out of his way to come out and take our photos after they’d closed on a Saturday and put our property on the market later that day. Nicola and Sharon in the office handled enquiries promptly and the team helped us to agree a sale and related purchase within 3 days of putting our property on the market. We were kept updated throughout and Robinsons Sedgefield helped the chain to navigate some practical issues that otherwise could have been very problematic.

GoogleBe warned! Unscruplous estate agent Sheila was hideous to deal with. No wonder the seller prev pulled out if our experience was to go by! Had offer agreed (reluctantly by sheila) paid for checks & sent all info that was asked then told to fill in forms which we did straight away. She advised we pay £1000 to start solicitors checks then called hrs later saying theyd had a higher offer. We renovate properties & know how things work & this is a terrible estate agency! We would have completed straight away as no chain so lets hope for the seller that this new offer isnt a pull out like the prev one! Its estate agents who behave like this who give both buyers & sellers a nightmare.

We are sorry to hear you are disappointed with the outcome and we do understand how frustrating it is when you miss out on a property.
To clarify a few important points, we act on behalf of the seller and are legally required to put forward all offers received. Although your offer was provisionally accepted by the seller, you were advised that the property would remain on the open market and that no sale could be agreed until the required checks and information had been completed.
At the time, there was still outstanding documentation and compliance information needed from your side, so the property could not be secured or withdrawn from marketing.
Identity checks are a legal requirement under Anti Money Laundering regulations and are not optional.
Finally, we would never ask a buyer to pay £1,000 to a solicitor. Legal fees are always agreed directly between clients and their chosen solicitor.
We understand how disappointing this is, but we must always act for our client and within our legal obligations. We wish you all the best with your onward property search.
Best Regards

Vicki has been amazing from day 1 with us! We are more than halfway through our time with this house, and every small concern or worry we have had has been solved immediately! It has been very easy to communicate with Robinsons, and they always send somebody out immediately. The house is amazing, the staff are all incredibly friendly, and Robinsons are wonderful!

We asked Robinsons the Sedgefield office to sell our property and from the first contact I met Ryan who valued the property and talked me through the process and everything went well from there Nicola and Sharron at the Sedgefield office were always on hand to answer any questions and and quickly resolve any issues when they cropped up I would say the office was managed totally professionally and would recommend them to friends and family and not hesitate in using them again.

We recently used Robinsons in Durham for sale of our old house and they were the agent for purchase of the new one. Communication was good throughout from Ann, Stacey, Keighley and Emily, while Keith was very knowledgeable valuing the house. Nothing was an issue throughout and would highly recommend.

TrustpilotThe world's worst real estate agent
I only reply to messages once every two weeks. When I inquired about room A, I was told that room A was no longer available, leaving room B and C. Then I sent an email directly to inquire about rooms B and C. Two weeks later, I replied that neither room B nor C was available. I am very speechless about your efficiency and service
Dylan · 6 August 2026
Agent replied · 24 September 2026
Thank you for your review.
We’re sorry to hear you’re disappointed with your experience. However, the rental market is extremely fast-moving, and room availability can change within hours or days, not weeks.
When you first enquired, you were advised that Room A had already been let, leaving Rooms B and C available at that time. Unfortunately, your follow-up response was received around two weeks later, and during that period both remaining rooms had also been secured by other applicants.
Had your response been received sooner and your search been a little more proactive, there would have been a greater opportunity to secure one of the available rooms. We cannot reserve accommodation while waiting for responses, on the off chance you might be interested.
We appreciate your feedback, but are very disappointed in your comments and don’t believe this reflects the level of service provided. We wish you every success in finding suitable accommodation.

TrustpilotRyan, Sharon & Nicola At the Sedgefield branch are wonderful
Ryan, Sharon & Nicola at the Sedgefield branch of Robinsons are all amazing. We’ve bought and sold a couple of houses with them now and they never fail to impress with their professionalism, attention to detail, efficiency and GSoH. The last house we sold got £10k more than we’d ever thought possible and both us and the buyers were over the moon.

TrustpilotHouse sale - 10/10 Service
We sold our house this year through Robinson’s Durham branch and we couldn’t be more thrilled with the wonderful service from the team throughout the process. Keith was a pleasure to deal with for the valuation, and Ann, Stacey, Keighley and Emily were exceptional for the remainder. The team went above and beyond, and communication was prompt and professional. We were delighted with the marketing of our property, and thanks to the team we secured a buyer very quickly. If anybody is thinking about selling their property, I highly recommend you choose Robinson’s Durham.

They kept me informed of the viewings booked & feedback afterwards. At all times I have found them to be very knowledgeable and helpful and they took time to answer any queries I had.

GoogleI bought my run down terraced property at Auction in Pelton County Durham Nov 2022. Big mistake . The world was in a bad state such as everything going up. It took us v long to refurbish cost a lot and poor workmanship let us down. We did quite lot of the work ourselves too. On top we were v far and took the gamble and didn’t see it. Also overpaid. Oh my god the problems didn’t finish even until the sale, when the sale happened through the modern auction method got a call from Robinsons saying there’s hole in the flat roof . Not my problem no more ! The person before us fixed ones before they died , we fixed it from top to bottom the man that gave the written guarantee called Philip Thompson with the company called “The roofer” and charge about 2 grand didn’t come to fix it after lying many times. And then the 3rd time Robinsons recommended builder called Joe Morrows with no company name which I found a little dodgy I went with them as Robinsons recommended them and previous parties let me down. He charge £2300 roughly fixed it with “rubber roof” that he said never went wrong with him and was v confident with it, he gave us a guarantee which was passed to the buyer. Not sure if they knew what they doing or it was some sort of a dark magic . Would I ever buy up north again NO . Poor returns generally . As well as many problems especially mining . Most people at Robinsons were ok. However when we eventually had a buyer (still to our loss) they wasted 3 months of our time and said the survey wasn’t favourable and ducked out honestly stupid rule that needs to change. We didn’t want to waste more time and money with a survey ourselves or rent it out as returns aren’t great, so we took it to the modern method auction. Their partner company “iamsold”.
The guy I had called Jack was a nightmare always had to chase him and I think he purposely was waiting for us to reduce the price so he had an investor lined up for the sale, this process took v long too. Absolutely avoid I’m sold as their fees are extremely ridiculous. Our buyer ended up paying around £8000 which was shared with Robinsons. Do i recommend Robinsons, I give them the benefit of doubt hence 3 stars do I recommend Iam sold no way . They also delayed the sale. With all the utility bills running .The whole thing from buying to selling took almost 3 years !!! Losing a lot on it too.

I have just completed my house sale using Robinsons Sedgefield branch and have to say the entire experience from first contact upto handing over my keys has been incredibly smooth and completely stress free thanks to Ryan, Sharon and Danni who have all been absolutely incredible! The Sedgefield team are a shining example to all other estate agents on how to be friendly, approachable and professional at all times! I would not hesitate to recommend everyone I know to use this agency! Thank you team Sedgefield for being absolute super stars and making what I feared would be a very difficult process into a total breeze!
