Michael Storey, Mortgage Broker at Rook Matthews Sayer
Great level of service and communication, especially when explaining things due to us being first time buyers. Michael was always quick to answer the phone or respond to emails, couldn’t recommend him enough.

Fully supported all the way through by…
Fully supported all the way through by Alister at rook matthews sayer right from securing a mortgage in principle certificate through too making an accepted offer and completion, we felt supported with all the advice we required... such as mortgage rates/insurances/time frames and explaing the processes...We were well communicated in every acsepct of purchasing a property and securing a second mortgage on our current home. I would 100% recommend Alister as a mortgage advisor, he has helped us so much through what can be a really stressful time, we couldn't thank him enough for all his hard work!
Thank you so much Adele for taking the time to leave this fantastic 5 star rating for our Mortgage Advisor Alistair, we really appreciate it. He is an asset to our team and we love seeing the 5 star reviews come in for him.

Look no further than Neil Walton at the Gosforth branch
If you're looking for a mortgage advisor, look no further than Neil Walton at the Gosforth Rook Matthews Sayers branch! He is absolutely fantastic in all areas of the job, from advice about anything and everything (which was perfect for me as a first time buyer!) to chasing solicitors. Neil is great at answering the phone and emails - you're never left waiting ages for responses. I've never not had a call returned or email responded to by him. On top of his exceptional service, he is the nicest guy you can ever meet and no task is too big or too small for him. I can't thank Neil enough for the service he has given me, I am very greatful and feel very lucky to have chosen such a great person to help me. Neil I am going to miss chatting to you, you've been great throughout the whole process and I can't thank you enough!
Dear Katie, firstly we want to thank you for leaving us a 5 star rating and secondly, we really appreciate you for taking the time to highlight our Mortgage Advisor Neil to us and for leaving such kind words for him. We love seeing reviews like this come in for our team and can't wait to pass this onto him, we're sure it will make his day as it certainly made us smile.

5 Star Service From Alistair
Me and my partner came to Mortgage Advisor Alistair Bowman to help us with our first mortgage as first time buyers. We didn’t have a clue what to expect but Alistair made the process so easy and stress free. He was always there to answer any questions and was so professional and friendly. I cannot recommend Alistair more to anyone who is looking to get a mortgage as he made our process so seamless. Thank you RMS and especially Alistair!! We will be back to see you for our next mortgage :)
Thank you Elise for leaving a great review for our Mortgage Advisor Alistair. We know buying your first home can be daunting so we do our best to guide you through the process as smoothly as possible, we're so pleased you found this to be the case in your circumstance. We can't thank you enough for leaving us 5 stars and we look forward to being of assistance in the future. RMS

Mortgage advisor- Alistair Bowman
I recently had the pleasure of working with Alistair Bowman, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the experience. He took the time to clearly explain all of my options, ensuring I understood the pros and cons of each one without ever feeling overwhelmed. I’m so thankful for all his help throughout the process and I would highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy mortgage advisor.
Thank you Libby for leaving this wonderful review for our Mortgage Advisor Alistair. We're pleased to learn that you felt supported throughout the process of securing your mortgage.

One star as zero is not an option
One star as zero is not an option. Little effort shown in trying to sell my flat, which has been on the market for 14 weeks. One viewing 3 days after it went on the market. The team rarely keep in touch and don't always reply to emails. All in all, a very poor service.
Dear Ben, Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that you are disappointed with your experience and appreciate the opportunity to respond. We completely understand your frustration regarding the level of interest your property has received. The current property market is challenging, with buyer activity slower across the board, and unfortunately this can impact the number of viewings generated, regardless of the marketing in place. However, we do feel it is important to clarify the extensive marketing and proactive service that has been provided throughout the instruction. Your property has been advertised on the three largest property portals, including Rightmove, Zoopla and OnTheMarket. We have also upgraded the listing with premium advertising to maximise its visibility to potential buyers. In addition, the property has been promoted through our social media channels, displayed in our branch window, and regularly matched to our active applicant database, with follow-up calls made to gauge interest and encourage viewings. While we appreciate that the level of interest has not met your expectations, we do not believe there has been a failure in service. Our team has remained committed to actively marketing your property and exploring every available avenue to generate enquiries. Our goal remains the same as yours: to secure the best possible buyer at the best possible price. We understand that this process can feel particularly disappointing when results are slower than hoped, but please be assured that we will continue working proactively on your behalf. Should you wish to discuss any additional marketing or concerns, please contact us directly. Kind regards, RMS

We highly recommend Alistair
We highly recommend Alistair! He was very efficient and contacted us regularly for updates. He went above and beyond for us and got us exactly what we wanted. He's very easy to talk to and helped us out with lots, nothing was too much to ask and he was very happy to help answer all our questions. His knowledge and expertise really went a long way with the difficult situation we were in and he really worked wonders!
Thank you so much Kate for taking the time to leave this fantastic 5 star rating for our Mortgage Advisor Alistair, we really appreciate it. He is an asset to our team and we love seeing the 5 star reviews come in for him.

Great service!
I dealt mostly with Tracey from setting up the viewing to collecting the keys to my new home. Tracey was amazing throughout, she kept me informed at every stage & actually called me before my solicitor did to confirm the sale had completed! Very helpful and understanding, Tracey is an asset to your business & I can’t thank her enough for making the purchase of my new home an easy process.
Thank you Jo, it means the world to us that you've taken the time to leave Tracey in RMS Amble a 5 star rating. We're so pleased that you felt supported throughout your purchase.

Fantastic Communication and Overall Experience
Our move was challenging to say the least thanks to a number of hurdles and difficulties outside the control of Rook Matthews Blyth, but they were first class in making sure our move got over the finishing line. I threw my toys out of the pram a few times along the way and I received a very professional, reassuring and prompt response. I always had the feeling that the staff genuinely cared about delivering a great service and that this is more than just a 9-5 for them. I’m hoping to not move for a long long time, but if I do, they will be my agent of choice. Thanks to Dawn and her colleagues for all of your help. Drew Edminson
Thank you so much Drew for such a fantastic review for our team in RMS Blyth. The ladies in the branch really do take each sale personal and its clear to see from their reviews that they put their all into what they do. We really appreciate you saying you would come back and use Rook Matthews Sayer in the future as this means the world to us. Good luck in your new home, RMS.
5/5
Searching for a new home is never easy, particularly in an area mostly new to me and with so many different Estate Agents in the area. Sue has been a ray of sunshine, helpful and informative, and not just showing me the houses I had identified but actively looking for others that would suit me. As my search continues and I wait for a buyer for my house, I look foward to seeing Sue and others in the team on future visits to the area. Thank you.
Thanks for the lovely five star review for RMS Hexham Sally, we really appreciate your kind words.

4/5
Thank you ladies
The marketing of our house was great at the start, quick and easy and lots of viewings however hit a stale mate and we ended up needing a second estate agent to market the house. Once the offer was in, issues with information not being shared throughout the chain however on the final 4 weeks before exchange the girls, Victoria and Emma were incredible!! They were on the ball, they were proactive and they were very reassuring! They did absolutely everything they could in those last 4 weeks!!
Thank you Claire, for taking the time to leave this review for our team in Ryton, we really appreciate it!

We were very pleased with the service…
We were very pleased with the service we received when selling our mam’s house following her death. It was a difficult and emotional time for our family, but the estate agent was professional, compassionate and supportive throughout the whole process. They kept us informed, made everything as straightforward as possible and helped take some of the stress away. We really appreciate everything they did and would happily recommend their services.

Massive thank you to Alistair Bownman
Massive thank you to Alistair Bownman, he has been absolutely fantastic throughout our first buy. He was always there at the end of the phone at any time of day/night, guided us throughout the process step by step and was ALWAYS there to help. I would highly recommend RMS to anybody, however I’d 1000% give Alistair a special recommendation. It has been a quick, easy and mainly stress free process for us both and cannot thank him enough.
Dear Shannon, thank you so much for taking the time to leave this wonderful 5 star review for our Mortgage Advisor Alistair. We really appreciate your recommendation.

Alistair Bowman
Alistair went above and beyond to help us secure our first home He helped negotiate our offer and even waited online so he could let us know after hours if we were successful or not. He kept in contact every week to help and guide us along and was even helping chase the solicitors to get it over the line and exchanged. 6⭐️ if possible

A sincere thank you to James and Leah at RMS Hexham, who have provided a fantastic service helping us sell our home.

I sold my property with the Gosforth and would recommend and use again.
I sold my property with the Gosforth branch of Rook Matthews Sayer. From the initial appointment and evaluation with David Jones, the regular contact with Richard Fitzgerald and Natalie Best on where the sale was and the above and beyond support from Ellie Erskine was great and helped the sale be a positive experience. I would definitely recommend and use again. They are very responsive and professional.
We're absolutely thrilled to receive this fantastic review. Thank you so much for taking the time to highlight our team in Gosforth for their customer service, we're so pleased you felt supported throughout the sale of your property and we can't thank you enough for your recommendation.

Reliable Mortgage Service
Used Rook Matthews Sayer for a re-mortgage as a returning customer. Rook Matthews were quick to contact us approximately 6 months ago to remind us that our existing mortgage was due to expire, a service we had not received previously from a different mortgage service which had resulted in us transferring to a standard interest rate and costing us more. The Track My Case option was handy to track progress. Alistair Bowman was our advisor a few years ago and recently. He has been so helpful, identifying the best time to search for a mortgage deal, providing regular updates and an alternative contact if he was unavailable and once a provisional deal was agreed, Alistair continued to check the market to ensure we had the most appropriate deal as interest rates continued to change. He has been honest in his advice, confirming that as we are close to paying off our mortgage, this would be the last time we would require a broker as the range of options in future years would be limited. I would have no hesitation in continuing to use Rooks Matthews and especially Alistair and would recommend them to anyone.
Dear Karen, thank you so much for this wonderful review for our Mortgage Advisor Alistair. We really appreciate the time you have taken to go into depth about your experience with our mortgage services over the years. Thank you for your recommendation.
