Called them out to have a valuation of the house, the lady apparently want to have a quick sale of our house, she give a price of 220k later On we find out the worst area and a lot smaller house sold price are all above 250k, while we are in the best areas and our house is twice the size, avoid this company they rip you off first before you put on market What’s the point using them,scammers
Hi Karl. We are sorry that you have not had the experience we expect from our team. Can you provide us with some more information, like the property address? We take into account current market conditions our valuer should have prested evidence of this. We would never scam anyone of our customers. We offer a no-obligation, completely free valuation. Kindly share information with gdpr@pattinson.co.uk so we can investigate further.

If I could this review a zero stars, i would.
We are sorry to hear that you feel the service you received did not meet your expectations. Prior to bidding, all prospective buyers are advised to carry out their own due diligence and ensure they are comfortable with the process and terms before placing a bid, as doing so enters them into a legally binding contract. Any funds relating to reservation fees and deposit liability are clearly outlined within the auction terms and conditions, which all bidders are required to review and accept prior to participating. Once the property has exchanged, any matters relating to failure to pay or complete fall between the buyer and the seller, with our role being to facilitate the auction process on behalf of the vendor. We can also confirm that this matter was previously reviewed and addressed prior to this review being posted. While we regret that you remain unhappy with the outcome, we must highlight that the process followed was in line with the legally binding contract and terms that were accepted at the point of exchange. We appreciate your feedback and wish you the best moving forward.

TrustpilotAwful company for tenants
Awful company for tenants. The issues I had with this company are too many to mention The highlights are having a delayed move in date. Moving into a filthy home that hadn’t been cleaned. Living with leaks and holes in the ceilings that were not repairs for months. And when they were repaired … it was like they were repaired by cowboys. Such as using gloss paint to patch up a ceiling so it stood out. Finding out I had 2 months notice from the sold sign outside my home. To taking 5 weeks to return a deposit and illegally hanging onto it. The company lack any focus on tenants and quality and desire to resolve issues. Please avoid them. My like has dramatically improved now I know I never have to have any contact with them.
Hi Helen. We are sorry that you have not had the experience we expect from our team. Can you provide us with some more information, like the property address? Kindly share information with socialmedia@pattinson.co.uk so we can investigate further.

TrustpilotSale and purchase both through Pattisons!
Friendly, professional service.We chose Pattisons for the sale of our house as we had our eye on one of theirs to purchase, fees were competitive and loved how the house featured on all house apps and web platforms. House sold within 2 weeks and offer accepted on purchase soon after. No complaints for the estate agents and Dean was monumental in ensuring the sale complete and both my buyer and onward purchase ran smoothly.The only gripe I have is with the solicitor that was recommended, Bideman solicitors acted on my behalf for both sale and purchase and they were truly terrible. Had taken on more work then they could manage with emails and phone calls being missed or not replied to for weeks… I would definitely use Pattisons again should we move but will definitely be finding our own solicitors. Huge thanks to Dean and team for all their hard work and efforts in these uncertain times! ⭐️

Excellent service from beginning to end.Phil came out, valued my home and was very personable. Property sold within 24hrs. Faith was amazing in handling the viewings and the sale of my property. Keeping me updated all the way through what could have been quite a stressful process. Would highly recommend pattinson. Thank you

TrustpilotUnethical Auction Practices - Blyth Branch
What a difference 18 months make. After a recent incredibly poorly managed auction by the Blyth branch I no longer trust this company to carry out a fair and transparent transaction. Moving auction dates, giving no time for the legal pack to be checked, allowing other bidders to drop out at the last minute, and allowing lower bid increments than listed in their T&C’s. It’s all very suspicious and it’s not the kind of business I want to be dealing with. If (and it’s a very big if) I purchase any further properties through Pattinsons it will be via head office not the branch. *** Previous review from Jan 2020 ***We have bought a number of properties from Pattinsons over the years and their service just keeps getting better. Our latest one with the Blyth branch was a breeze. It was an auction property we bought before auction, and unlike some others we looked at had reasonable fees attached to it. Caroline was an absolute pleasure to work with and Terri holds the Crown as my favourite estate agent. Keep up the good work guys. We will be back for more!

TrustpilotVery unprofessional
Very unprofessional, told us our offer was agreed and vendor was happy and property would have no more viewings and then suddenly they said they had a higher offer. Depends who you speak to, some staff seem very inexperienced. Must be one of the only estate agents who allow viewings once an offer has been accepted. However when I went to buy a property they wouldn't let me view as they said the offer had been accepted, so contradicting themselves, even when I tried to explain this, no apology just said this was usual practise!!!

When we made the decision to put our home up for sale we were instantly put at ease by Rachel Ratcliffe. She made the process very easy, kept us well informed and her communication meant we knew what was happening when. She really is a peoples person and is very good at what she does. She also helped secure our offer on our new home! Thank you Rachel
