GoogleHUGE thank you to Kate, Sophie and the team at Penny & Sinclair Summertown for all of their help and hard work with showing and selling our house. There were some hiccups along the way, (of course! Wouldn’t be a house sale without it!) but their professionalism throughout the process was exemplary. I was always able to get hold of a friendly, helpful person on the phone, and felt very informed throughout the process.
I particularly appreciated Kate’s advice, along with the chance to talk through some of the decision making with someone who knows the market so well. Her recommendations for both a surveyor and lawyer were great and I think contributed to the smooth running of the entire process.
It has been an absolute pleasure dealing with the team and I would wholeheartedly recommend you to anyone.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism, Value

Sophie was the perfect estate agent - very helpful and friendly during viewings, and communicative and transparent during the purchase process. Thank you so much for making my first-time purchase as simple and stress-free as it could be!

TrustpilotVery good agency
The company was very responsive and proactive in communicating with us about updates to our search and application. All the agents that we were in contact with were very nice and helpful (Sean, Katarina and Jessica), and the entire process was made very simple and clear. We are very happy with our new flat and would definitely recommend the agency!

GoogleAbsolutely outstanding service from pillar to post. Having spent five months with a rival local company and chasing phonecalls and constantly being let down, Kate and the team at Penny & Sinclair were able to do everything we could have possibly asked of them in the most wonderful manner and speedy timescale. Took every phone call, answered every query and always purveyed a high level of surety and confidence. Would 100% recommend for selling in Oxford.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

I dealt with Penny and Sinclair for two short lets for my five-month stay in Oxford. Amber Littlechild was professional and courteous and was very helpful in every step of the process. Amber met me at the flat each time to deliver and pick up the keys and was available every time I needed assistance in between. I was also refunded my security deposit in a timely way without undue waiting. I would certainly lease through them again!

The Team members are fantastic.
I had the pleasure to work with Nigel, Anum, and Sean and their rapid responses, adaptability and communication being able to address any questions and concerns have been top notch.
Please note, I believe I was very fortunate in timing as I would naturally never have this level expectation so always provide teams with grace. But it has been much appreciated from a customers perspective over the past week and weekend.
Thank you all so much!!

TrustpilotCommunication with them is difficult
Communication with them is difficult, they are micromanaging the guests which is intrusive of privacy and frustrating throughout the stay.

We're sorry to read your review, as it doesn't reflect the experience we aim to provide.
We were somewhat surprised by your comments, particularly as you have chosen to book a return stay with us for 54 nights commencing in early September and have left us a five-star review on Airbnb.
Throughout your stay, we responded promptly to your queries and worked hard to assist with any requests you raised. On a number of occasions, we also contacted you regarding property security after the house was left unsecured while unoccupied, with windows left wide open and the rear gate left open. As managing agents, we have a responsibility to protect both our clients' properties and guests' belongings.
The additional cleaning service you requested during your stay was arranged as requested. When the associated invoice remained outstanding, we followed our normal payment process, including seeking assistance through Airbnb. Unfortunately, the subsequent communication became difficult.
We always welcome constructive feedback and strive to provide a professional service while balancing the needs of both our guests and our property owners. We wish you well and look forward to welcoming you back for your upcoming stay.

We recently sold our house with Penny & Sinclair and had an outstanding experience. Sean, our agent, impressed us from day one with his professionalism and genuine enthusiasm. He conducted numerous viewings efficiently, ultimately selling our home within our desired timeframe. Sean and the team at Penny & Sinclair were consistently communicative and responsive throughout the process, ensuring everything ran smoothly. We highly recommend their services for anyone looking to sell their property with confidence.

GoogleWe started selling our house when the market was not good. Penny and Sinclair did their best but it was not the right moment. Added to that we had not found anywhere else to go... When we did find a suitable property the market had improved so we tried selling again. Lizanne and Kate were very proactive in looking for clients. They worked tirelessly bringing a great number of possible buyers to see quite an unusual house and, in spite of a number of setbacks, eventually their perseverance was rewarded. We are very grateful.

Kind regards, P&S.
★★★★★ 5/5
GoogleExcellent experience from beginning to end of tenancy (lasting about 3 years)... AND thereafter. The agents were always smiling, responsive, accurate and helpful. All in all highly professional with a warm, personal touch. The transactions were always easy. The agents were also flexible, very open to our having direct contact with the owners but ready to help out as needed with any special circumstance or negotiation. The surveys were extremely detailed and professional. Repairs were undertaken swiftly and without any undue questioning. Whilst we were on the easy side as tenants, they maintained the same standards for more demanding tenants we knew.
A special mention to Naomi Everett who was amazingly pleasant and efficient throughout and went over and above duty long after our tenancy had lapsed, personally going through the house and finding curtain rods we'd left behind, as well as helping us recover gardening items similarly left behind.
I should unhesitatingly give Penny and Sinclair our house to sell or let in the future and highly recommend them as an agency. We dealt with several agencies, although only in the search and acquisition process, and they seemed the best and the most transparent, successfully establishing a win-win situation for tenant and owner. Well done.

TrustpilotExcellent experience
We had an excellent experience with Penny & Sinclair, regarding both selling our old house and buying a new one, which completed a small chain. Our estate agent, Joe Worsell, was wonderful from the moment he showed us the house we ended up buying. Being polite and friendly, but impartial and professional, he earned our trust from the very beginning, so we were more than happy for him to manage the sale of our old house. We were prepared for a scenario that the house wouldn't sell fast enough, but it was done really quickly (and on top of that amidst a holidays season), we had 2 offers within 3 weeks. Joe continued to guide us further throughout the process, being always available, always happy to help, often going out of his way to provide the information and help that we needed. I warmly recommend Joe and P&S!! Thank you! 🌻

GoogleI can't recommend Lizanne and her team at Penny & Sinclair highly enough - and I am someone who is not easily impressed ;) They combine a high degree of professionalism with great enthusiasm - and, after excellent experiences on my last three sales, I didn't even think about asking another agent to sell my house on this occasion.
Once again, I have been hugely impressed with the quality of their service at every stage - from initial consultation with Lizanne, photography and meeting all team members who would be doing viewings, to arranging/following up on viewings and chasing solicitors. As previously, they secured excellent buyers very quickly, and achieved a very good price for my house (and this time in a very difficult market).
I have also been looking for a property to buy, and have therefore had very recent experience of a number of Oxford agents - and Penny & Sinclair come out tops again.

TrustpilotOutstanding Short Let in Oxford by Penny & Sinclair
We approached Penny & Sinclair when my family needed short-term accommodation in Oxford this summer. Over three months, we stayed in two areas, Jericho and Summertown, and right from the start, it was outstanding. Georgia Guy, who's in charge of short lets, made everything easy for us, from moving in to leaving. She and her team found the perfect lets for us in no time, understanding exactly what we needed.Throughout both stays, we were in the good hands of Georgia, Emily, and Amber. They paid attention to the little things that mattered to us, especially since we were there with our two daughters. Their prompt responses and the initiative they took to ensure our comfort made it clear they understood the nuances of a travelling family's needs.Getting our deposit back was no hassle at all, and they did so with the highest level of professionalism. What also stood out was how they planned our check-out around our hectic schedule, which meant one less thing to worry about.Penny & Sinclair aren't just doing business. They genuinely care, and it shows in how they treat you. It's like they're welcoming you into a community, not just renting you a place to stay. We can't recommend Penny & Sinclair enough for any family looking for a worry-free stay in Oxford. We're looking forward to our next stay with them!A special thanks to Georgia, Emily, and Amber for making our stays memorable.
