They kept me informed at every stage, answered all my questions promptly. The entire process, which can often be stressful, was made smooth and seamless.If you are looking for a reliable and efficient letting estate agent, look no further.

Lovely, friendly staff & stress free …
Everyone I’ve spoken to at the Ingleby Branch has been amazing. Victoria and Andrea especially have been lovely & helped throughout the whole process. It was a long 7 months so the help was very appreciated during the ongoing stress. They happily reached out to contacts for me when I struggled to get responses so kept things moving. Overall great experience :)
Thank you for your fantastic review Emily. Our Ingleby Barwick team will be delighted to read your kind words. Best Wishes Mark

I would not sell my house with these…
I would not sell my house with these people badgered while I was buying advised by one not to have a survey to realise when I bought the house ive water leaks everywhere and drains not covered for sewage ..no pipes going into drain from boiler ive had a plumber out who also noticed all this aswell.unhelpful unless they are pushing a sale don't care about the buyers so if I sell it won't be through these .I would like to add some of the girls are lovely and was helpful and did do a lot while I was buying but the attitude of some of the others that's caused this review
***update 12:26pm 2/8/24***Email sent to Karen with copies of notes offering a survey referral to Trew Surveying.I have advised I will review the call log on my return from annual leave and contact Karen with my findings. Mark SmithHi Karen Thank you for your review. I shall be looking into this and listening to all calls on return from annual leave as I am surprised we have advised not to have a survey. If you can email me with a timeline of events and who advised not to carry out a survey and I shall contact you on my return. My email is marksmith@smith-and-friends.co.ukWe do care about our vendor and buyers as you can see from many previous reviews.I look forward to speaking soon.Kind regardsMark SmithManaging Director

Outstanding customer service
From the moment our house was put on the market to the day of completion we were so pleased that we asked Smith and Friends to sell our house. Everything about the selling process was expertly and professionally explained to us in person. The advertising of the property was superb with extras such as drone footage. Throughought the sale we were kept up to date of proceedings by the diligent, courteous and friendly staff. Altogether a positive experience and recommend Smith and Friends for your next property sale/purchase.
Thank you John for your wonderful review of our Stockton team. We all greatly appreciate your kind words and thank you for using our services.Kind regards Mark SmithManaging Director

Overall good service
There was a good number of prospective buyers. Staff arranging viewings were efficient but also had time to chat. Staff liaison with my legal firm was good. I should have been notified that the EPC was out of date and that it was not their responsibility to do this.
Thank you for your 5 star review. It is greatly appreciated by us all.Kind regardsMark SmithManaging Director

Disappointed
I was a buyer in this process.Not enough staff to allow us to view the house when we wanted. Viewing staff pleasant.Sales staff very helpful with negotiation with vendor. Sales progression could have communicated more frequently and did not seem to know very much about vendor details or timings. I had the impression she was totally overworked.When we picked up the keys the staff member I spoke with was unhelpful and dismissive. Disappointing experience.
Thank you Mr & Mrs R for your valuable feedback. As you can see from previous reviews this standard you have experienced it’s the standard we deliver. I shall contact you directly as I would like to know more a little about the viewing scenario as we have 3 outworkers who can undertake viewings. Kind regardsMark SmithManaging Director

Great Communication
Robinson’s were our first experience with estate agents and they made it such a positive one. Great communication throughout, from viewing properties, to listing and selling ours. Nicola was very helpful, easy to get hold of and generally made the process feel less daunting. Will definitely use Robinson’s again.
Thank you for your fantastic review Emma.Best WishesMark SmithManaging Director

Well done Steffi!!
I had a lousy solicitor,one of your recommended ones but Steffi Hughes kept me informed of the progress,or lack of it by being in contact with solicitors on each side of the sale and keeping me abreast of her findings, nothing was too much bother!!!

Whilst the experience with the staff at…
Whilst the experience with the staff at the Marton branch was good, as far as we were concerned the iamsold team were part of the bigger team and our experience with them was frustrating. Initially we were told that the auction process would take up to 56 days. The initial offer was accepted on 9/1/24. Completion did not take place till 23/4/24, 103 days later. The delay cost us financially due to the changes in CG tax. We later found out that the buyer wanted to purchase as a business that was not even registered till the end of January. This was the reason for the excessive delay. The communication throughout from iamsold was poor with emails from our solicitor often not being responded to. Unfortunately this reflects on your business as this is who we signed the contract with.
Thank you for your review. I am sorry to read your comments regarding the auction team, I have passed your comments onto them.Kind regardsMark SmithManaging Director

Smith & Friends Hartlepool- excellent
Smith and Friends Hartlepool have sold two of my properties now and each time I felt that the experience has been excellent. The staff are knowledgeable and nothing is too much trouble. Their pricing is competitive and they make sure to keep me informed every step of the way. From valuation to setting the completion date they've been professional and trustworthy. Thank you to the whole team.
