Joanne Oseman has been absolutely amazing in my property search. She has listened to my requirements and put forward relevant properties, as well as suggested some that I wouldn't have considered, but glad she did!. Joanne is extremely knowledgeable, professional and patient, an absolute credit to her company. I couldn't recommend a better individual to assist you with your property search. Thank you Joanne you really have been a superstar ✨️

I went through mostt of the estate agents in Ryde and found Watson Bull and Porter to be the very best. Rosie and team are such a lovely friendly bunch. They always listened attentively which resulted in them always being on same page as I. They have now sold my house thank fully and worked hard to sell it. I honestly highly recommend them to anyone considering selling as they are professional ,empathic, good value and just get you n property totally. Sincerely grateful to your team for all your support enthusiasm and kindness. Viv x

Friendly, professional experience

From the time I walked in to Watson Bull & Porter in Newport, staff were very friendly. A viewing was made from Newport with Sean Todd in the Ryde office who were dealing with said property. Although in the end I decided not to offer on the property, there was always an input to try and find something that suited my needs without being pushy. If my purchase doesn’t work out then I would certainly go back.

Property search on the island

We came over to the island last week, having had to pull out of a property due to issues raised on survey, through a different agent. We spent some time on block viewings with Joanna Oseman. We couldn't have been more contented with her comfortable viewing persona that she has. She allocated her time, from her busy work day to show us several properties and also a property which had only just gone on the market. We loved one of the properties and the potential that it had, however it was pipped by another, surprise property with a different agent that we had seen the day before. Joanna was so gracious when we explained that an offer had been accepted on the other property, and wished us good luck with it, but should we need her in the future for anything then to let her know. She is an AMAZING member of staff - thank you Joanna 😊

They are below 1 star

They are below 1 star. They breached Data Privacy and put my property at risk. When I entered a formal complaint, Rosie Treadwell acknowledged and said it wouldn't happen again. In less than 10 hours they put my property at risk again by Data Breach! I hold Watson Bull and Porter accountable if anything happens! AVOID

Great helpful staff

Great helpful staff esp. Clara & Joseph. Helped me through the process successfully and were professional through out. They were always there to answer silly questions and give advice. If they weren't available when I rang, they rang back as soon as they could, unlike the previous letting agents I used. Would recommend them.

Photos and video available - but hold onto your breakfast 🤮

Well - where to start ? I used this company to let my property in westhill Road. I will never let again. I signed a sole occupancy and within 2 days someone else moved in and they did not have right to rent , a relevant visa or home office documents! I moved to remove them - fighting the agents who Tried to convince me all Was fine even tho the additional guest (s- poss up to 4 more ) had no income at all ! The government website clearly shows a 10k fine for allowing an illegal immigrant to rent your property ( each country is different ) My plumber confirmed an additional 4 people who they claimed as “ visitors “ One lady claimed to be my tenants wife and promptly went into labour having flown here pregnant - must have lied to the airline … Well fast forward - they are gone and some other poor landlord from WBO has them. But my home is completely ruined - nicotine , mould , carpet stains , mattress unusable and disposed of. Whole 3 bedroom flat requires painting. The cleaning required is horrific. There was food and fat in and on over and hob unclean me so far. The smell is horrific , curtains mouldy and furniture now needs disposal and replacement. They did all this in 2 months. Mouldy bathroom , toilet horrendous. Unhabitable until a crew has been in … in masks and PPE. And WBP have a duty of care ???? No they dont give a damn. Now fighting for the deposit TOWARDS repairs as already exceeds the money on the table and they won’t release it to me .. z I asked them several times to visit - nada. Please do not use this agency. They don’t care if you get a fine from the govt and don’t care if your property is ruined. Email me for photos if desired. helencathclare at Google

We had planned a short term rental on a flat that was also on the market, a risk we were prepared to take. 3 weeks before our move date the flat got sold! Joe at the Ryde branch was great, he found us alternate properties to view, giving us …

excellent service from 1st call to move in, and beyond. Katie went above and beyond and looked after us every step of the way. We had been in touch with other agents but the professionalism, knowledge, excellent customer service and personal touch, made us stick with Watson Bull & Porter. Highly recommend and will be recommending. Thank you Katie and the team, we couldn't be happier with where we are thanks to your efforts.

Rosie and the team have been absolutely outstanding in their effort to sell my property. Rosie has worked tirelessly and I cannot thank her enough. I highly recommend them to sell your property! I have tried 6 other agents on the Island and they are not a patch on WBP. They know their market and have superb local knowledge. Very proactive and very professional service. Thank you.

Looking for an letting agent who actually cares? Look no further than Louis West! Amazing to actually find someone who contacts you regularly with updates. I have been registered with all the other agents on the island and he as been the ONLY one to keep in regular contact with me, in fact he has been the only agent to contact me with up coming properties at all! It can be a very frustrating process looking to rent but with Louis I actually felt that he wanted to help. If only all agents could be so good at there job. Thank you Louis!PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

Do NOT use Watson Bull And Porter in…

Do NOT use Watson Bull And Porter in ryde their , Dishonest, lie don't keep you updated, never return calls, and treat you according to your Status. The Mgr Simon Lee put me under so much pressure i went to Hospital with Chest Pains !! Could have died - Hope you can see this Lee as you are one contemptuous git ( mind you that word might be out of his vocabulary range ). They do not give a Toss - Use them at your peril - If i could have given negative stars i would have done - i explained to Lee that I wanted to downsize to a graden and wanted to get a Dog - Labrador - i got a reply of " There is enough room for a little doggie " like im 5!!. And so didn't listen, clearly - And i've heard through the grapevine called me a ret--d . So DO NOT USE THESE MUPPETS

As an ‘accidental landlord’ I was clueless about the process involved. I initially booked the valuation with Debbie and she was quick to put me at ease, she was professional, clear and honest. The whole team were so friendly. Both her and …
