TrustpilotWhilst the experience with the staff atβ¦
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.

TrustpilotThankyou Darlington!
I used the Darlington office to buy my property and couldnβt be more satisfied with the service I received. My purchase had a large amount of sentimental value and both joy and Michelle were so invested it made the experience a lot less stressful. Highly recommend these guys and I canβt thank them enough :)

TrustpilotSmith & 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.

Excellent service from Smith & Friends on the sale of my house. From the initial evaluation to completion they were always available for advice and assistance.Within 24 hours of the house going on the market, we had eight viewings booked and received an acceptable offer within 48 hours. All staff were professional and knowledgeable. They were all so friendly and I have no hesitation in recommending them.

TrustpilotGreat service
Overall pleased with the service throughout from Darlington smith & friends when selling my home. Stand out service was from Joy during sales progression, despite other delays she constantly kept me updated, chased all parties, was extremely responsive and approachable. Unfortunately communication wasnβt as great during a period of Joy being off however I couldnβt compliment the service from her more - made a stressful process much easier.

TrustpilotExpert Professional and Friendly service !!
Right from my first visit to my local office (Ingleby Barwick) the staff at Smith and Friends were very welcoming and extremely helpful. My main contacts there are Mark, Chloe and Manj, and they have all exceeded my expectations on the many visits I've made there. This is even more meaningful when the house I was intending to buy (through their Marton office) fell through. Having not moved for the last sixteen years, they have guided me through the process of buying and selling houses (and even renting) with their expert knowledge (despite my barrage of questions!!) It's 'full marks' for an excellent professional and friendly service - I'd recommend Smith and Friends to anyone buying or selling ...Ken Day

Great experience in buying our first home. We were tenants with them and the process was exactly how it is was described it would be. Check out of rented property was good and their mortgage adviser helped us with our purchase, Chris at HNW assisted with our legals and the sales staff were polite and always returned calls or emails even the most trivial things. Highly recommended.
