GoogleOverall our experience was plain sailing and smooth thanks to the team at sweetmove. Even when we didn’t feel right with a property, we felt reassured to find the right one for us by the advice and guidance from sweetmove and not once did we feel judged as we felt we were messing people around but no judgement was made and we got our home.

GoogleOur estate agent Kathryn has been so honest and helpful throughout the process. As first time buyers, it has often felt that we’ve been floundering, but the support that we have received has been amazing. Can’t recommend enough.

GoogleFrom the initial thorough evaluation and clear explanation of the process ahead, to the great marketing materials, and to the support, advice and encouragement given along the way, I felt safe and valued - confident that I had made the right choice. The North Berwick team were always responsive and friendly, and above all professional. They know their business.

GoogleAn excellent experience all round during a very challenging time. Rachel and Levi were superb in helping find, view and get into our new property in record time when we found ourselves forced into house hunting at a bad time of year. Cannot recommend them highly enough

GoogleThis is our third experience with Sweetmove. Our second time selling through them and I wouldn’t choose any other estate agents.
Their expertise and knowledge of the Pocklington area is fantastic. They sold our house instantly and throughout the process kept us updated regularly and handled every issue or query along the way promptly.
Thank you Sweetmove!

GoogleSturminster Newton.
As buyers of an expensive property, we were never made to feel, welcome, important or valued.
Throughout the conveyancing process the “negotiator” came across as aloof, disinterested and was rather dismissive.
After exchange of contracts, we received some rather curt emails directing any enquiry we had, back to the solicitors. In the process making it obvious, that the “fee was already secured, so why bother”.
Come completion day, the final insult was, no communication regarding completion or collection of keys. We went to the offices and requested the keys and were disgusted our contact, more or less chose to ignore us, for no particular reason. They did manage under gritted teeth to say “congratulations”.
On such an exciting day and after such a long wait, we deserved better !
Something to remember for the future. We certainly couldn’t recommend or would consider instructing on any of our future portfolio sales or purchases.
Disappointing to say the least.

GoogleI honestly cannot recommend sweetmove enough. Emily and Kate are second to none, their knowledge and guidance have made the process of selling my house easy and enjoyable.
This was my first time selling a property so I went into it pretty clueless and worried however with Emily and Kate on the other end of the phone each worry was squished almost immediately.
They found me a buyer so quickly and made sure I was up to date every step of the way.
So happy my house is sold however now sad I don’t get to deal with Kate and Emily each week (sometimes daily, sorry ladies)!!
5 star service.

GoogleWe were able to rent a house after a couple of viewings that were booked for us by the agent. All properties were showed and explained to the best agent’s knowing of the questions I raised.
Agents were polite and professional. All process is pretty straightforward. Highly satisfied.

GoogleI would like to thank the staff at Symonds and Sampson for all their hard work in successfully selling my property. They made everything run so smoothly from the evaluation right the way through to the exchange of contracts and all within two months. Their service was second to none; they were always there to answer questions knowledgeably and to clarify any points of concern. I felt highly valued as a client. Once more, with many thanks to you all.

Caroline · 14 July 2024
★★★★★ 1/5
GoogleIncredibly disappointed with this estate agent. They tried to sell me a 3 bed including loft conversion as a 4 bed, despite not having building regulation sign off. This meant they could attempt to get more for the property rather than the actual value of a 3 bed. Standard behaviour for a shady estate agent. The seller would then only offer an indemnity policy, which is actually incredibly worthless. Of course, the estate agent gives the attitude that it's nothing to do with them and it's all the solicitor, despite being the ones who priced the property in the first place.
I would advise buyers to think twice about using them.
