I chose National Residential

I chose National Residential, from an advertisement. Of course I had concerns but they were soon put at ease. I was given the name of staff members, whom l could contact and they kept me informed throughout the sales process, even the boss was easily accessible and very helpful. I have nothing but praise for the company and their professionalism. Thank you again.National Residential.

We bought our first property with National Residential. Their methods of contacting you are quite unusual for an estate agent but we found texting to be much more efficient in the end. They were always very friendly and very active in chasing up details. They are not your every day estate agents but they got the job done quickly and efficiently.

I was very happy with the professional manner it was handled. Selling my house.managing my Tenants. Agents. And 3rd parties. No one was disturbed. And all the work..paper work was managed by them. I had to do the minimum. I would recommend National Residential to all my friends and family who are looking for solutions. The communication was very clear and timing was perfect.

You only find out how good a company is when things don’t go to plan. My sale should have been straightforward but it was anything but. Nat Residential helped every step of the way. Even contributing some of their charges to ensure the deal finally went through.

Liers and cowboys, agreed to sell our house on the 28 day auction, said it was with an investor then said they were going to arrange an open day the following week then said we dont want to sell it as theres no interest and if we dont sell we dont make anything all this in just seven days 🤬🤬🤬 AVOID …

CRichard · 13 June 2019

Hi Richard. Firstly it should be noted that you are not a client of National Residential and you are not the property owner. After conversations with the property owner, it is clear that information has been miscommunicated to you. We sell all our properties via a modern online auction. As with any auction, and with any estate agent for that matter, it is impossible to sell 100% of properties. Sellers set a Reserve Price and we do our best to achieve it. We sell 50-60% of properties. Not 100%. Your Reserve Price was set at £155K. We listed the property on Rightmove and Zoopla and our auction site for 14 days and not one buyer registered interest. A clear sign it is overpriced. We spoke to the local estate agent “Lovelle” to ask their opinion and they advised that the property would sell for £140K and the market for Terrace properties like yours is not great. Therefore, rather than tying you in to an extended contract like other estate agents do, we advised we cannot achieve your price and cancelled our agreement. You incurred no costs and we were swift, allowing you to sell through other means. Tom Bates, our Sales Manager spoke to you about your concerns and you advised you would speak with the property owner and be back in touch, however we have still not heard back from you. This is unfortunate as it is clear to that you do not understand our auction process. We have written to the property owner, enclosing the actual offer letters sent to her by email and by post that states with clear transparency: “*Please note we are unable to guarantee a sale price when selling through our auction. All sale prices are subject to receiving offers from buyers and sellers do not have to accept any price lower than the price they have agreed” We even offered the owner £50 in M&S vouchers as a gesture of good will. We would still welcome the opportunity to speak with you further, however in the meantime I believe you should detract your statements as they are unfounded and incorrect. I wish you the best. Many Thanks, David (Director)

Stress free sale…

National residential handled everything to do with the sale of the property. Unfortunately it all took rather longer than expected but this was outside our control. Once everything was in place the sale was completed and money transferred in a timely manner. At every stage there was good contact with National Residental. Using National Residental certainly reduced the work and stress involved in the sale.

Straight forward auction property purchase

I would definitely recommend this Agency. I purchased a property that was up for auction but we agreed a price and it was sold to me before the end date. The whole team were helpful and efficient and kept me fully informed and chased up solicitors to speed up the process.

I recently bought a property through national residential, having not dealt with them in the past or hearing that much about them I can’t stress how professional and easy the whole process was, from start to finish I couldn’t fault a thing. Every question I had was met with a quick response and they regularly updated me on where we were plus I could complete on the property much quicker than usually. 5 stars thank you. Stephen
