Organised and professional

Owning a portfolio, I spread the management across three agencies. Smith & Friends is certainly organised and professional. The departments are very well structured and the customer service is excellent. I would have no hesitation in recommending their services.

Friendly staff

All staff were so friendly and accommodating. They were easy to contact and always available to speak to us. Andrea was always at the end of the phone giving us an update and keeping us right with selling and purchasing

I had an issue where they randomly cancelled my viewing, causing much inconvenience, but thankfully I was given a full apology, reimbursed the transport costs, and given a full video tour of the property I wanted to view. They're decent people and have done well to make up for the mistake.

Dear Harry, I shall look into the reason for the cancellation by our client and come back to you during today. Kind regards Mark Smith Managing Director

Exceptional service

From the initial contact made to arrange a viewing to the completion of the purchase, everyone we dealt with at Smith & Friends was friendly and professional. The stress of buying a house was removed from ourselves as we knew we were in safe hands.

Top class Estate Agent

We have recently sold our house via the Ingleby Branch and to a man I cannot fault anybody in the office. Andrea and Manj mainly handled the viewings and sales progression but everyone was so patient and gave great advice whenever I needed it. As the house was empty we left everything to them including the viewings which made the whole process simple and stress free. I wouldn't hesitate recommending Smith & Friends to anyone who is looking for an agent to sell their house. Top class, friendly and knowledgeable service from a very experienced estate agency. Thanks again! NT

Hi, Olivia and the team were fantastic, had 5 viewings over the bank holiday weekend and could have had at least another 5. Property was re-let within a month of the old tenants moving out. Olivia sorted all the paperwork out very efficiently and quickly. Well done all, will be using you again.

Claire Aitken was really helpful showing us around the property I was interested in as well as telling me info about the local area as well as other opportunities that may be of interest to me.

PROPERTY SALE/RENTAL

I wished to sell a property and asked this company to handle the sale for me. I was unable to receive an acceptable offer so this company very quickly found me an excellent tenant/rental income. Everything was handled very professionally and I am delighted with the service given.
