Absolutely incredible!!!

Absolutely incredible!!!After finding a house in September I called and first spoke to Yasmin. I have never spoken to someone so positive and enthusiastic. She booked an appointment and was there for the viewing. After viewing the house I explained that I have a house to sell in order to purchase. Yasmin said what became a regular word for her “no problem“. Yasmin came to the house with her colleague Luke. Both Yasmin and Luke were amazing in the advice they gave. Due to their dedication and professionalism the house was sold in 12 days and a price agreed on a purchase.Yasmin and Luke did everything to secure the house sale and purchase. Sadly complications arose but Yasmin and Luke did everything to reassure and help. I have bought and sold properties before but never has the support been so incredible.At any stage the guys were there to answer calls, emails, WhatsApp even in the evening.Thanks to Yasmin and Luke everything has worked out so well and we moved in before Xmas. I could write another 10 paragraphs to explain how amazing they are.Simply the best - cannot recommend enough 5 *

Excellent Service From Seymours

Excellent service from Seymours in the letting of my rental property. Always helpful. Viewings were arranged with the minimum of fuss and I always got feedback quickly.The contract process was really smooth and straightforward with questions and issues resolved quickly.I have experience of other local lettings agents but in future I will only use Seymours.

Seymours left us stranded when we had signed and paid for our rental property and everything set up, only to find out the owner had agreed to sell through ankther Seymours office post our agreement. An apology doesnt secure us a property. Very unprofessional to say the least. Our property was still be advertised after we had signed and paid. Not acceptable to say the least

Joss is highly knowledgeable

Joss is kind, welcoming, highly professional and extremely knowledgeable. He is understanding towards confusing situations for the seller. Always happy to take one through anything. Has made this process easy and has kept me well informed. I would most certainly choose to sell with him again - 100%.

Poor Service

Throughout a three year rental, all admin for problem resolution was with the tenant with lack of support from the agency. A shattered window remains unresolved after nearly 4 months with blame attributed to the external contractor they selected. After ending the tenancy the viewings process for new tenants involved daily emails from multiple team members requesting access within 24 hours

Good experience

Good experience. I needed to find a 4 bed detached property in lightwater quickly. Jonny showed us round 3 suitable properties at short notice. They all matched our requirements and I put in an offer on one, which was subsequently accepted. Jonny was polite and personable throughout, plus he was very knowledge about the local area.

Yesterday we managed to secure a tenancy on a lovely property through Seymours. I would like to praise the team particularly Jason who phoned me on the morning the house came on the books, booked a viewing that day. Jason and the team then sorted out a potential stumbling block the next day which resulted in the offer being accepted. Well done guys very professional and great customer service

Awful morals and ethics avoid at all costs! We have previously experienced awful moral practises after placing best and final bids on a property. A week later after we won the final bid on a property. Seymour’s called back to advise competing offer had since offered over our asking price! HOW is this ethical?? I

Sophie · 18 August 2025

Agent replied · 23 October 2024

Hi Sophie, we can see how frustrating this experience must have been. To clarify our process: we use “best and final” offers to try to create a fair framework for all interested buyers and the seller. However, we are legally required to submit every offer in writing to the seller, right up until exchange of contracts (unless the seller has given us written instructions to the contrary). Ultimately, the seller makes the final decision, not us. It’s their home and their choice. That means if a higher offer is received after a final deadline, we are obligated to pass it on and the seller can choose how to proceed. We appreciate this can be disappointing, and we’re sorry if our communication didn’t make these legal obligations and the implications of final offers clear enough. We’re reviewing how we set expectations.

Communication could have been better

Communication could have been better. There were a number of issues throughout the course of the sale which could have been handled more professionally. They did eventually get the sale over the line but it was all somewhat last minute and stressful.

Selling your house is a daunting…

Selling your house is a daunting prospect. That said, Seymours was the first choice to guide us through the process.I met Simon who came across as friendly and really knowledgeable about the local market with many years of experience in this field. The sales guide price was pretty much as expected. The pictures were taken a few days later by Mark who made a great job of the brochure. The whole team at the office were on board with the marketing of the house and, to my surprise, 7 visits were arranged within the first full week. The communication from the office was amazing. Emails arrived detailing every visit booked and there were regular calls with feedback and updates from the office. Overall a great service was provided by the whole team. The house was under offer in no time. Again, the background work carried out at the office, was extremely thorough and they constantly updated us on the situation.Whilst the wait for completion goes on, the whole team could not have done more to help with the process of selling a house.With the service received so far, it's no wonder they are the leading agents in the area by far

paid for professional dishonesty & guinea pigging!!

As a seller, I paid them to negotiate the best price for me. However, I was not buying my next property through them though they tried to sell very very hard from their catalogue. Hence I believe I was made the scape goat to do price reduction to complete the sale !.

Firstly Forget your deposit

Firstly Forget your deposit, The professional end of tenancy clean is a joke. Even though the property was deep cleaned it was still not good enough, it has to be on their terms and will cost £300+ for the smallest of properties we had (Par excellence cleaning) . Still waiting for that deposit, 6 weeks and counting, i had to chase ! God knows what a larger property will cost. Throughout my 3 and a half years of renting i never missed a payment, maintained the property to a high standards even though there was a constant mole issue which was never resolved and some scam cleaning company comes and takes your hard earned cash. When it comes to maintenance and tenant issues It’s always someone new you’re dealing with & no clue what previous issues were. Good luck you will lose at least 50% of your deposit probably sitting in an end of year xmas party pot.

Poor attention to detail, delayed purchase

I completed the purchase of a property in June, having had an offer accepted in February. A large part of this delay was down to the poor attention to detail by the agents at Seymours. When I viewed the property they were ignorant of some basic details (heating system, parking situation, ground rent, building maintenance arrangements) which other estate agents (such as Bourne) had on hand when viewing similar properties. Despite having made it clear to Seymours that, since the property was a leasehold flat, it was very important that I be able to see the terms of the lease as soon as possible, they dragged their feet in getting hold of it, with the result that the purchase was delayed considerably when my lawyer found problems with the lease, especially with the buildings insurance clause which the seller and Seymours actively misled me about.I still went through with the purchase, after securing a reduction in price and some indemnity insurance, but the purchase took far longer than it should have done simply because of Seymours showing a lack of attention to detail and not having accurate information at the time of viewing and after making an offer.Having viewed other properties listed with Seymours I encountered the same lack of basic knowledge about the properties by the agents (I often knew more than they did, having done basic research such as looking up the EPC certificates beforehand), and I generally got the impression of agents who were only interested in getting an offer accepted for the property and then ceased to be interested in putting the effort in to get the sale actually completed.I don't know how much commission they charged the seller but whatever the commission was it was too much for the service provided. If you're selling a property go with a local competitor like Bourne, who at least show an attention to detail.
