TrustpilotPatterson’s jarrow lacks good customer…
Patterson’s jarrow lacks good customer service, are untrustworthy and never deal with a situation- just hand you over to someone else who also has no idea how to cope under pressure. They took a holding fee from myself for a property and with some issues (with a CCJ that was in my partners name… with investaigtion it was not his abs evidence sent to them) we lost the property. We were told if we found out the CCJ information and could provide evidence that it was not my partners then the holding fee would stand. Since then, the house has been given to another tenant and a holding fee was taken off them. There has been the most shocking communication from pattinsons with regards to the property. I’m aware that the landlord has no idea what has been going on as the wife of the landlord has fed this back to the neighbour of the properly who has contacted me to tell me this. Really terrible service from all who were involved- which was at least four colleagues. I will never use these services again and will be telling everyone I know never to use them. Terrible business.

Good Afternoon. Thank you for your comments. All interested parties are put forward to the landlord & they are also updated on any information we establish during the course of referencing. The landlord will make the final decision on whether they wish to proceed (with the application) or not, based on the final referencing outcome. We are happy to discuss the findings again with the named party and we will issue the refund of the holding fee once adequate proof has been provided that the CCJ has been filed incorrectly as previously explained.

Estate agent negociator Louise from hartlepool team was extremely professional while helping me to get the spurn walk property, even though i couldn't bid higher i felt she was supporting me throughout the bidding process, she was trying to help the buyer as well as the seller to get a fair price for both sides.

Hi Neil, we are sorry you have not had the experience that we would expect. I can see on your file that Lisa did make contact with you on 11/01/21 to advise that viewing can now take place and that the vendor may put the property into an auction. Sometimes there are delays with contacting vendors, and we can not instruct on offers without the vendor's consent. If you would like to share any more information with us, please contact socialmedia@pattinson.co.uk, and we will look into it further for you.

TrustpilotSale of townhouse in Seahouses
Having worked with Kelly and her team in the past, I was aware of how proactive they are in reaching a sale. They were extremely helpful and supportive throughout the process and worked in close contact with myself and the purchaser, to ensure the conveyancing ran as smooth as possible. As the seller, I discussed with Kelly and Darren an alteration in the asking price, in order to get that offer. We all agreed on the price and the best way forwards, which before long did bring the property to being under offer. It is a difficult market at the moment, but Kelly really does know her stuff extremely well and the whole team works very hard on both sides to secure the sale. Would definitely use again in the future.

TrustpilotWARNING - FAKE BIDDING
We had a highly disappointing experience trying to sell a property through Pattinsons Auctions. Pattinsons engage in what is commonly known as shill bidding, placing artificial bids to make the auction appear more active and push prices closer to or above the reserve. While this practice is legal if all parties are informed, we were never told about it as sellers. While buyers may find this information buried in small print, Pattinsons do not make it clear on their live auction platform or prominently on their website, or within the sellers contract. Both buyers and sellers should be extremely cautious. If you have expressed interest in a property but haven’t bid, Pattinsons will likely introduce artificial bids up to £2,500 below the reserve price to create the illusion of demand.Shill bidding really should be illegal, as it is on many platforms like eBay. We would never have agreed to this practice had we been aware of it, and would never have used their service. If their auction platform truly had strong buyer demand, such tactics should not be necessary. Despite over 30 viewings, we received zero bids, which suggests that potential buyers were put off by either the auction process or high buyer fees (~5%). Never again.

TrustpilotDAN'S THE MAN!!!
DAN'S THE MAN!!!We had an excellent experience with Pattinsons, Houghton branch. Dan was very personable, professional and an absolute pleasure to deal with. Dan did a great job of marketing the property, with very clear communication throughout (even outside of business hours) so we got a huge amount of interest we were made an offers for 4 days after it went live! Sue, Kimberley and various others from other branches have all been fantastic to deal with. The team in the Houghton branch were friendly and efficient when dealing with every aspect, our home is now SSTC as having not done this before we were made to feel reassured and they are continuing to guided us through the whole process. Would definitely recommend. Thank you Dan and everyone at Pattinsons team!

Nicola has been amazing through the whole selling process. So helpful and went out of her way multiple times for us to help the process run smoothly. We had a very stressful chain and Nicola did everything she could to put our minds at ease. She definitely went above and beyond for us. Stephen was also brilliant helping us out with various things and again going above and beyond for us.Overall pattinson were brilliant and we're more help to us even on the sale of our house than our estate agent and solicitor and we weren't even selling through them!

Avoid them at any cost!! They mislead you with their twisted auction contract and their "well trained" agents so you definitely end up with costs even with no sale.All I can say is: Honesty is not their thing.Do not use their service if you care about quality, honesty, and clear agreements/communication!

TrustpilotDiscriminate against non-local buyer
They allowed me to bid for a property that I couldn't view as I do not live in the area and intended to purchase the property as an investment. I was told my bid was the highest and in normal circumstances, it would have been accepted. But because I have not viewed the property in-person, it was rejected. If that's the case, why waste my time with all the researches I have done and allowed me to put a bid for the property only to tell me it would have been rejected anyway as I have not view the property in-person. To further rub salt into the wound, they emailed me more properties on sale for me to bid as if I am stupid enough to go through this agent again to have my bids on other properties to be rejected as I won't be able to view those properties in-person anyway. They should put a sign on their door, we only do business with locals.

TrustpilotRented a house with pattinsons
Rented a house with pattinsons, after a year or so they started sending people to quote for minor or works that I didn’t ask them to do, charging me at least £60.00 each time, they did this many many times. I would receive the rent some three weeks after the tenant had paid. Cost me nearly £1000 to leave them. Best thing I ever did. Don’t go near these people. They do not look after your interests, just lining their pockets is the idea.

I would definitely recommend Pattinsons of Stockton for the sale of your house. We had ours on the market for 2 months with many positive viewings and then we had an offer. Unfortunately this fell through at the last hurdle due to the buyer and Pattinsons had the property back on the market the next day with another offer coming in within 4 days and a successful sale followed in under 2.5 months.Thanks for your help and consistent calls to keep us fully informed every step of the way.And a special mention to Gino and the chatty one they call Mel!

We bought a house for the first time in years and had a lot of questions throughout the process. Our agent Graham Nisbett from the Blyth, Northumberland branch was absolutely brilliant. He helped us with finding a solicitor and saw us through the whole process of buying. Graham regularly emailed if he had any updates to share and answered our emails promptly. It was easy to contact Graham on the phone if we needed to.If Graham was out of the office the other staff at the Blyth office were always helpful. Altogether an excellent service, I'd recommend Pattinson's Blyth to others.

TrustpilotBad communication and information
Our buyer had backed out from our purchase on 22nd November 2024, which we were told by the Stockton branch that’s the purchaser was going to reinstate her solicitor on Monday this week despite our solicitor telling us on the 22nd that they had backed out. The estate agent made us wait until Friday this week (28th November) when I phoned the office before I was able to speak to her saying our solicitor had had a further letter to her enquiry on the 28th Nov to confirm our purchasers had indeed withdrawn from the purchase of our property. The purchasers solicitors could not understand why there had been a conflict of information. Why we had to hold on for another week without any explanation from the estate agent is disgusting. They even had me in the office with paperwork for two hours on Friday 22nd probably knowing at that time the purchasers had backed out! They never return a phone call. They had no communication as such with our solicitor, us or the sellers agent we were buying from. Promised phone call never returned. We had a viewing from a prospective buyer who didn’t turn up. I rang the office they said they would contact them. The buyer turned up 40 minutes late. They had no call from Pattersons to ask why they were running late or if they were attending at all even after they had been with us for an hour nothing by way of communication.
