TrustpilotThank you Gabrielle and Beth
The team at Pattinson’s Sunderland Branch were great with helping and advising me on buying my first home. Gabrielle and Beth were the two main team members belong me and both were exceptional. No question was an inconvenience for them (even when I asked more than once) and they always got back to me whether than was via an email or by phone. The last week of exchanging contracts was very stressful but the calmness and informative nature of both Gabrielle and Beth kept me sane throughout. I would definitely recommend Pattinson Sunderland Branch if you’re thinking of buying or renting a home in the area. Thanks again ladies, you were great 😊

TrustpilotDarren Tynan, Pattinson Estate Agents, Alnwick
It's been great dealing with Darren Tynan from Pattinson Estate Agents based in Alnwick, Northumberland. We were selling our property and he expertly guided us through the process, his knowledge and experience was greatly appreciated. He was always calm, friendly and professional, which is what you need when going through such a process. We would highly recommend Darren, and Pattinson Estate Agents. Many thanks, Steven and Michelle.

I just want to thank Carly at Washington Pattinsons. It was my first time renting and she made the whole process run smoothly. She was very professional and had a lot of knowledge. She really listened to what I was looking for and made me feel very comfortable. She is an asset to your company and I look forward to purchasing my first home with her very soon. Kind Regards,

TrustpilotNot the best!
Not sure where to start with our experience. But will keep this review short. In summary communications and keeping the customer updated is not the Alnwick branch’s strong point. Mini email breaches to me which was obviosuly meant for another customer, emails to be in the wrong customer name (and then apology emails sent with the wrong name again), lack of response with regard to specific questions and concerns. What can I say. I have never had an experience like this in all my house purchases so am sure there are worse out there…. But this experience has not been good at all.

I have been in touch with Carly List at the Washington Galleries Branch recently.From my first contact with her, viewing a property with herself, and the follow up contact with her, she could not have been more helpful with the process of buying my next property. She has taken extra time to keep in touch with myself and the vendor of the property I am hoping to buy. She has been very keen, helpful and polite at all times.Thank You Carly, and hopefully I'll be settled in my new home soon.

Just want to say a big thank you to all the staff at Pattinson’s in Heaton.... especially Hayley who has been an absolute star! Without their support I think I would have gone completely mad and probably never got to the point of being able to move house. Thank you for all your hard work

TrustpilotThe BEST!!!!
Carly List put my house up for sale on Monday, booked 11 viewings by Tuesday morning and sold the house by Wednesday morning. There is nobody more dedicated, invested or hard working than the girls at Pattinsons Washington, if you’re debating which estate agent to use to sell your property let this be your sign, they’re amazing and I can’t praise them enough. Will never use anyone else again.

TrustpilotTerrible Estate Agent to Work with (West Road Newcastle)!
I put an offer for a property in Newcastle (NE4). I was told that it was the best and highest offer. They asked me to send agreement in principle and then mysteriously wasted lots of time (three weeks)until someone put same amount of offer and their offer was accepted! Everything was very fishy. The staff are miss connected!

TrustpilotThank you to Consett Branch as well as Wendy Burbridge
Pattinson’s Estate agents were great from start to finish. In particular I’d like to mention Consett branch, and in particular Stephen. I felt all of the staff there were enthusiastic about the house and were always willing to help at every stage. After a sale was agreed the case was looked after by Wendy Burbridge, and she kept everything ticking along nicely, exerting polite pressure on solicitors etc when necessary. Thank you to all involved.

Trustpilotbenlaw grove no longer interested
We were supposed to have a viewing today and it got cancelled 20 minutes before because they misplaced the keys. Absolutely ridiculous after having to leave work early having financial impact. Not to mention a 40 minute drive.It affected another potential sale, who also arrived at the property along with us.And unfortunately has put us off the sale of the Benlaw Grove property.

I asked to go see a bungalow in Carville Durham,, but was told no as I had not put my house on the market and I had not had an offer on my property. I told her how do I know if the bungalow is right for us if I don't see it so then I could put my property on the market,,Is this the way estate agent sell property now. Thank for you reply.

TrustpilotEven if you tell them you're not interested, they'll still call you!
We were interested in viewing a property via Pattinson, we saw it and thought it had potential but we were too early in our selling cycle.Instead we asked to receive a property valuation, although this all went according to plan, upon receiving the email valuation this felt different to what was actually said in person and in the end this was a very different experience to the two other property valuations we received.Anyway, we completely lost all confidence in Pattinson on the whole from this experience and asked not to be contacted again. I have now received 4 additional calls from them to 'check in with us' and advise us that we can still ditch our current agency and sell via them. Honestly, would never use them to buy or sell, especially with the pushy sales techniques. A GDPR 'forget my details' request has now been sent because it's beyond a joke to keep calling when you've already been told we are not interested!

Throughout the buying process, Helen and her team have been extremely pro-active, helpful and friendly in the way they handled matters.

TrustpilotPoor Communication & Unsafe Living Conditions
I'm very disappointed with the handling of this issue. I collected the property key on the 4th april 25 and completed my inventory, during which I noticed the boiler/gas system wasn't working. Despite emailing, I received no positive response and had to follow up with a call. It's now been 13 days without gas or heating, and I have a toddler. I was advised to contact Northern Gas Networks myself. Fortunately, a contractor arrived within 30 minutes and confirmed an internal pipe leak. The report has been forwarded to the maintenance team, I sincerely hope this is resolved urgently.

TrustpilotAmazing staff
If it wasn’t for Wendy Burbridge, this wouldn’t be a 5 star review.Wendy is amazing and an absolute credit to the company. I cannot express how greatful we were for her help.However, Pattinsons recommended the solicitors we used who were absolutely appalling. Like I say, if it wasn’t for Wendy, this wouldn’t be a 5 star review and I’d be ranting about how we were stuck with ignorant solicitors for almost a year because of your recommendation!Please do not recommend terrible solicitors. It will only decrease the trust people have in you.

All the staff at Pattinsons in Consett but in particular Steven worked tirelessly and successfully to sell numerous properties for me from my rental portfolio. I can not emphasise enough of how much personal attention and professional effort they put into everything. I can without doubt thoroughly recommend them to anyone seeking an effective estate agent service.

TrustpilotAbsolute cowboys
Absolute cowboys, they have been mismanaging my property for a long time. First they didn’t get the contractor to repair as agreed and completely ignored my instructions and at times they approve repairs without even informing me. I would say definitely read the clauses on the contract, you can’t stop the management during tenancy tenure. sent a letter Susan Moore and she failed to even get back, horrible company!- replaying to the reply: that’s a lie I can attach the amount of time I’ve email and even sent a formal letter to your CFO Susan Moore. Absolutely shameless!

Agent replied · 5 June 2026
Hi Phil, We’re sorry to read your comments and that you feel dissatisfied with the service provided.
At Pattinson Auction, all vendors are required to review and agree to our full terms and conditions prior to entering into an instruction. These clearly set out all fees, including any applicable withdrawal charges, along with the circumstances in which they may apply. There are no hidden fees and all Pattinsons costs are transparently detailed within the contractual documentation.
It is also important to note that, whilst a property remains under an active agreement with us, certain obligations apply regarding marketing. These terms are also clearly outlined within the agreement signed at the outset.
We always encourage clients to carefully review the full contractual terms before proceeding and where necessary, to seek independent legal advice to ensure full understanding prior to instruction.
That said, we take all feedback seriously. If you are willing to share your details directly with us at reviews@pattinson.co.uk we will be happy to review the matter further with the team involved to ensure everything has been handled correctly and appropriately.
