GoogleRetties are absolutely amazing! A brilliant team of Rob, Mary and Emma. From our first meeting with Rob to discuss selling and marketing our mother's house to the completion of the sale; they have been so professional and knowlegable in their approach yet at the same time, they are so friendly, supportive and helpful. They respond quickly to emails and calls and no question is too trival. They really took all the stress out of the process for us and managed our short chain of buyers and sellers very effectively. Retties do go the extra mile for their clients and are there for you every step of the way. I can't recommend them highly enough. If you want a very personal service that gets the job done rather being just another client with an estate agent then Retties are for you!

★★★★★ 5/5
GoogleI sold my flat with Rettie at asking price less than 48 hours after it went on the market. They were a breath of fresh air versus other estate agents I spoke to - did not pressure, gave a valuation that was fair and did not guarantee a very quick sale for them. The team were all honest and transparent which I appreciated greatly. They stayed in touch, were friendly and approachable and I would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone.

★★★★★ 1/5
GoogleAwful disrespectful estate agents. We were in a bidding war with another buyer. They didn’t communicate with us for 7 DAYS that the seller had accepted the other offer. No update. A Week later they call telling us their buyer had dropped out. The sole reason we weren’t interested is because of this company handling it. Sausages

GoogleGreat experience with Rettie with both the purchase of my house (2019) and its subsequent sale (2024). Rob and Claire have a great understanding of the local area and were helpful and easily contactable throughout both processes.

GoogleI was very impressed with Rettie, who I dealt with when purchasing a new property. I liaised directly with Claire and Mary who were both very personable and extremely professional. Nothing was too much trouble for them and they kept me informed throughout, which helped with the smooth running of the process. I would not hesitate to recommend Rettie to anyone in the future.

GoogleThe guys at Rettie were instrumental in getting my purchase over the line, especially considering the impact of Covid on pretty much everything. The process was made very easy as the staff are extremely responsive to queries and answered all of mine, and were on the ball in communicating with solicitors/vendors to help speed up matters. Excellent customer service from all I have dealt with.

GoogleExcellent service. Moving house is about so much more than selling the house (that was the easy bit). It's the next stages when Retties really stepped up to the mark. Guiding me through the bumps in the roads that inevitably occur when buying and selling. Their advice and expertise, kept the move on track and me sane! Would 100% recommend.

GoogleAs a buyer of a property through Symonds Taylor (was still Rettie at the time) the team were courteous and easy to deal with. They had a reputation for fair pricing, which is how my purchase played out. All in all good experience (albeit limited from buyer's side).

GoogleI just wanted to thank the team at Newcastle for their excellent service in selling my flat recently. Their professional but friendly approach made the whole process much less stressful than it otherwise would have been, and their efforts to achieve a sale and their communication throughout the whole process has been commendable. I would definitely instruct them again on a future sale.
