I've worked with Sansome and George on a few purchases. Ben and Barbara are professional, knowledgable and just knows how to get things done.

Cannot fault Sansome & George at all. From the very beginning everyone we dealt with showed absolute professionalism. They ensure that no time wasters ever view a property and the prospective buyers must already have means in place to purchase.

Very friendly, polite and helpful staff - especially Mark and Sophie in the Oxford Road office! Excellent communication, fast and friendly responses in regards to finding a property, securing it and managing it, as well as being efficient, quick and helpful at fixing problems, with great choices in friendly and knowledgable handymen! Amazing team. Highly recommend!

Unbelievable service from Anthony and the team. Found us a house and really helpful throughout the whole process. Wouldn't think of using any other company.

Absolutely amazing service and people. My husband and I sold our property through Samsone and George after months of trying with other agents and getting no where. The team are absolutely amazing, from Anthony to James, to Ben and Helyn they have been supportive throughout the process and I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for great estate agents.

I have had the best service from Sansome & George, specifically Nicole Knight. She is so professional and personable. I really felt like she took the time to understand my families needs and went above and beyond to maintain great communication. An incredibly smooth and efficient process and I will certainly be recommending people to Sansome & George!

Rented a property 'managed' (term used loosely) by S&G -- our property manager was changed twice after staff left the company, without us being informed and left to email an account that was no longer in use. The company couldn't seem to decide whether they managed the property or the landlord did, as whenever an issue arose and we contacted the property manager, we still had to wait between days and months for the landlord to decide what to do. All of this inconvenience and back-and-forth waiting for action to be taken on repairs was incredibly frustrating. We were even told that whilst waiting for an emergency repair, we would have to wait an extra 2 days for the landlord to come and view the issue before anything could be done, despite the property manager having pictures and videos displaying that the repair was needed same day. Waiting for 2 groups of people to actually do their jobs every time something needed doing resulted in a year-long wait for another repair for an issue that was present before we moved in. S&G constantly blamed the landlord, the landlord constantly avoided actually resolving the issue, promising to send contractors who never showed. In total, it took ~12 months for repairs to be arranged despite constant reminders that we were still waiting. S&G were no help whatsoever in this situation. When we attempted to call the agency to resolve any issues, the phones were almost always disconnected, no longer in use (despite the numbers being displayed on their website or email signatures), or simply left to ring as if no-one was in the office. At the end of tenancy, our check-out report evidenced that we as tenants had left the property in a better condition than it was when we moved in (including paying for professional cleaning despite it not having been done before we moved in, and complete garden clearance despite it being hugely overgrown when we moved in). The landlord still attempted to take over £100 from our deposit for spurious charges from the check-out report, despite the recommendation of the inventory clerk being that we receive our full deposit back. Again, S&G were no help whatsoever, choosing to spend their time ignoring the inventory report and instead attempting to defend the landlord's blatant thievery against the recommendations of the company they chose to carry out the report. In the end, whilst we attempted to resolve the deposit dispute and request invoices for work carried out as proof of the necessity of the deduction, S&G decided to ignore us altogether and did not respond to our emails again, only sending repeat requests for the evidence-less deductions that they felt entitled to. All in all, a terrible experience renting through them. They allow landlords to get away with deliberate delays in essential repairs and deposit theft, have a total lack of communicaton or responsibility, and seemingly don't actually manage a thing, despite claiming to be property managers. They were worse than useless for the duration of our tenancy, as well as the period following whilst we attempted to rightfully claw back our deposit from them.

Recently bought first home via Sansome & George. Everyone we came into contact with at either the Oxford Road or Tilehurst branch were accommodating, knowledgeable and supportive throughout the buying process. Helyn was particularly helpful once the offer was accepted through to completion. Would highly recommend buying or selling through them.

The service provided was excellent from the initial survey through to the viewings and negotiations for the sale of the property. I was very impressed with the proactiveness and professionalism of all involved and not once did I have had to chase up for any information or progress of the sale.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism, Value

We were very pleased with the professionalism and friendliness of Sansome and George from the first viewing with Lewis, right up until completion, with Barbara going above and beyond for us - what a tenacious lady!

Often, estate agents seem to do little and charge much. Not so with these people! As a buyer, I cannot comment on the charges made, but I can certainly vouch for their hard work. Without their continual involvement through to completion, we would probably still be waiting for the solicitors. Excellent service!

Had a very good feeling from the first meeting with Charlie from Sansome and George...we saw several of their rivals and felt S&G could provide us with a very professional and personal service. This turned out to be the case. Exceptionally happy with all the communication and back up help. Would recommend.

Excellent service all around. Everyone I interacted with (Babara, Paul, Charlie etc.) was exceptional. It was a smooth transaction, and I got the best deal. A friend of mine recommended Sansome & George to me, and I would recommend this company to anyone looking to sell their property.

Recent house sale and it was a delight to deal with the team in Tilehurst. Anthony deserves special mention for warm, efficient, very professional service with great client focus. Charlie and wider team were always cheerful, helpful, friendly and above all effective. In my opinion, an agency clearly willing to go the extra mile.

House valuation good , sold quickly great. Just annoying when I had to go back up to estate agents twice with an another legal copy of something, because they said they hadn’t received. I had already handed it in to them, and member of staff remembered too.
