We had a fantastic experience with Alistair

We had a fantastic experience with our mortgage advisor Alistair. He is incredibly helpful and friendly, we could not recommend him highly enough. He was approachable throughout the whole process and was always available if we had any questions or needed advice. Alistair went above and beyond in all aspects and made the process feel smooth and stress free. We felt well supported and he made us feel confident that we were making the right decisions by explaining the process so well.

Rook Matthew’s Sayer in Gosforth…

Rook Matthew’s Sayer in Gosforth couldn’t have done more for me during the sale of my parents bungalow, my parents are living in a care home and the process has been made so much easier by RMS and especially Natalie Best who went above and beyond to help me with all of the form filling and solicitors questions, I couldn’t have done this without her.

Great service, excellent communication and help

Alistair was so helpful with our mortgage process. As first time buyers there was a lot we were unfamiliar with and he explained it all, advised and gave guidance while empowering us to make our own choices. He was invaluable in advocating on our behalf in discussion with the estate agent and solicitors, and kept in regular contact with us to give and receive updates. We would heartily recommend him and go back to him for remortgage. Thank you Alistair!

Michael Storey - Mortgage Advisor

Michael Storey was brilliant from the very start. He took the time to discuss all of our options in detail and made sure we secured the best possible mortgage and rates for our house purchase. His communication was clear, he acted quickly throughout the process, and everything felt straightforward and very stress-free. We couldn’t recommend Michael more highly. Thank you again!

Selling Properties

Ellie and Claire were amazing when it came to helping me sell my dads house. They helped me fill in the paperwork I didn’t understand and were happy for me to contact them with any questions or enquiries I had. If I sell any other property I will definitely be returning to Ellie at Rook Mathew’s sayer West Denton.

Couldn't have asked for more

Alistair was absolutely fantastic in helping us with our first mortgage. He was so reassuring and knowledgeable and helped us to find a property we never thought we would be able to afford. He was consistent with his updates and checked in to see how we were getting on with the process. It was great to have someone like that advocate for us and we would definitely go back to him when we need to remortgage!

Alistair has been an absolute blessing throughout the whole process. I was initially referred to him while viewing a property marketed by RMS, and from the very beginning it was clear he really knew his stuff.

Professional and prompt response to queries, good advice given. Easy to get in touch via phone or email. I used them for renting out my property and then the sale of the property and both were a great service. Rental was fully managed by them and I couldn't fault anything over the three years - seamless.

Alistair Bowman - Excellent Service House Purchase

Alistair has assisted us with a couple of remortgages in previous years and recently assisted us again with a house move. The service received from Alistair is always excellent, he provides clear advice, always looks for the best deals, is proactive and thorough when resolving any issues, and very responsive to any questions raised. We can’t recommend Alistair highly enough.

First time buyer

As a first-time buyer, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Jamie at Whitley Bay Ranch. From start to finish, Jamie was incredibly helpful, patient, and knowledgeable, making what could have been a stressful process feel straightforward and manageable.

I have never used a mortgage advisor before and was understandably spectacle. Never the less I signed up with Alistair Bowman for the service and it’s the best thing that I have ever done concerning mortgages. His professionalism is second to none always going the extra mile in terms of the best mortgage available. He even significantly reduced my purchase price! In regular contact keeping the client updated with latest developments and is always willing to help in whatever capacity is needed right up to exchange and completion. Overall making a very stressful process less so.

From the first moment we engaged with the RMS West Denton branch we had every confidence that they would provide an excellent service. What prompted our decision was the branch manager commenting that if he didn’t sell our property in three months he wasn’t doing his job! He did just that. Throughout this period the West Denton Team provided feedback on escorted viewings, offers etc and were always available to provide feedback, updates knowledge and guidance on the selling process, big shout out to Ellie Murray Office Manager. If you need to sell property in the Newcastle area give Rook Mathews Sayer the opportunity to act on your behalf.

Truly exceptional service received from Jack

The only reason I am writing this review is because of Jack from the Gosforth branch. He has been incredible in helping us letting our property. While its extremely hard to get hold of others, Jack was the only person who was consistent and always available. He was polite and he truly understands how landlords should be treated since they put a lot of trust in letting agencies. He was thorough in answering our questions and finding us the right type of tenant. He made things move quickly and kept us updated every other day. He was very proactive in providing detailed tenant profile and his own assessment of a suitable candidate. This was indeed very helpful since he met them in the first place.He truly goes above and beyond his duties to make sure that our requirements were met to a high standard. While everything else seems to be money oriented, Jack clearly knows the importance of empathy. He event went on to lightly clean the property himself to set a good impression for the upcoming viewings. This is unheard of and we were completely blown away by his selfless gesture. I had no desire to write a review but it would be unfair if I didn’t make everyone aware of the hard work he puts in everyday.I wish the same level of service consistency could be maintained across the team.

Service miles apart from other agents

Having used a different agent for the sale of our property, we found the service offered by RMS Forest Hall to be miles apart for our purchase. We received very little communication from RMS regards our purchase and when we did, we found it to be inaccurate, outdated and unrealistic. We spent alot our of time having to chase various stakeholders to progress the purchase with little to no action from RMS. This eventually lead to the collapse of the purchase. We received no response to our communications in the lead up of pulling out of the purchase from RMS.

We would like to say a big thank you to Bruce, Claire at Rook Matthew Sayers, West Denton. They were very professional, helpful and knowledgable. The sale was unfortunately delayed and made difficult by the solicitors but Claire remained calm and patient, and was the one to push the sale along for my late fathers property. Everyone at West Denton Rook Matthew Sayers were very supportive and nothing was a problem to them and I would not hesitate to recommend their team to anyone.
