GoogleNatalie and Megan were outstanding, going above and beyond what we expected of them. They are both very professional, pleasant people, and nothing appeared to be too much trouble for them. For various reasons the purchase of our property took rather longer than expected, and they kept the momentum going and us up to date at all times.
They have supported us fully throughout the process and have additionally provided us with a list of local tradespeople. We cannot speak too highly of them and fully recommend them and Rolfe East Sherborne Office.

GoogleRolfe East excelled themselves with the handling of a rather complicated house sale. Under solicitors instructions we had to get three estate agent valuations before matters could progress and Laurence's approach to the whole process was head and shoulders above the other two. What started, thanks to solicitors dragging their heels, as a very frustrating business was soon turned around by the very professional work carried out by Laurence to get the property to market and the excellent work of his team especially Megan who was brilliant throughout. Viewings came the first week and followed at regular intervals.
This was down to the excellent sales skills shown by Laurence who could show people the potential of the property rather than just letting people walk around on their own. Something sadly lacking with a lot of estate agents. The house was sold with us being kept informed of the progress throughout.
I would certainly recommend Rolfe East their whole approach is excellent

GoogleWe have just settled into our new home after selling with Rolfe East Sherborne. It has been a lengthy process for reasons out of everyoneβs control, but we are so very thankful for all the efforts from Megan, Natalie and the rest of the team. Megan has been incredibly attentive, responsive and helpful throughout. We are now out of the area, but would feel confident using Rolfe East again should the opportunity arise. Thanks again guys! π

GoogleWe finally achieved the sale of our house in August after twelve months on the market. It was a rather up and down process, with prospective buyers withdrawing along the way for various personal reasons.
Communication was excellent; Natalie kept us up to date with good news and disappointing news and she helped us to remain positive. We noted that all our enquirers spoke highly of the response they received from all the Rolfe East team.
Natalieβs hard work and perseverance helped bring the sale to completion when there was often a disappointing response from the other agents and solicitors in our chain.
Our buyer commented βI have to say that Natalie was the best person we dealt with throughout the process; she really helped speed things along at the endβ.
We are happy to recommend Rolfe East for their excellent professional approach.

GoogleWe have finally compleated on our house sale, which i am confident was down to the outstanding dedication and effort from Natilie & Megan. It has been a very long process due to my disgraceful solicitors but Natile was unwavering. She just picked us back up, shook us off and found a buyer that stayed the course. (even on her days off). Rolfe East , you have an amazing team and i would 1000% recommend selling or buying your house through them.
THANK YOU ALL.

GoogleA wonderful team since we first started looking at property. During our purchase there's always been someone at the end of the phone or on line to help and offer advice. It's been super quick & this has happened due to a lot of help from the team making all the calls we were unable to. Can't thank them all enough, with extra thanks to Natalie & Megan. If your looking to buy & Rolfe East are selling don't hesitate.

GoogleRolfe East in Sherborne were extremely helpful and patient throughout the long process of selling our property whilst buying another. They always returned my calls if they were not immediately available. I had contact with Laurence, Megan, Natalie and Emma, all of whom were helpful. It has been a stressful time, as two previous attempts at moving house were aborted. We are glad that we stuck with it and with Rolfe East who introduced the buyer to us. I do think that the house selling and buying laws in this country could be hugely improved to make the whole process easier and less stressful, however within the confines of the rules which exist, I think Rolfe East has done us proud. Rolfe East is a small company, and my husband and I have found that they have worked hard to ensure a good relationship with us as clients.

Hello Jackie, thank you for your review. Rule changes are difficult, and looking around the world, we haven't yet seen a perfect or a noticeably better one.
The key is that people are honest, and they do what they say they will do. As agents, one of our biggest challenges is to navigate between the pragmatic facts and the deep feelings related to where you live or would like to.
Thank you again, and we wish you well.

GoogleRolfe East and the team were brilliant during our recent house purchase. We primarily dealt with Natalie during the process who was amazing at all stages, even when things got bit wobbly especially during exchange and completion, which was unnecessarily complicated due to down chain issues. We cannot thank them enough for all the support and chasing up of issues they did during the various stages of the move. The service from Rolfe East was brilliant and we highly recommend them.

GoogleRolfe East Sherborne excelled themselves from start to finish. Laurence is very knowledgeable about the area and local sales and prices. He pitched my price just right and was quick to identify the key selling points of my property and capitalise on those. These points had been missed by other agents. My property was marketed swiftly and a suitable buyer found within a few days. The sales team. Natalie and Megan, were excellent at negotiating and keeping me well informed along the way. Rolfe East's fees are highly competitive. I can thoroughly recommend them.

TrustpilotLaughed at me over the phone
Asked them to remove a for sale sign that had just been put up outside of my property (on council land without permission) only to be laughed at and be told that I could speak to their boss. Appalling and will remember if I ever sell.
Daniel Β· 18 July 2026
Agent replied Β· 24 September 2026
Dear Daniel.
Thanks for your review. You called our office and asked that a sign be removed from your property. We do not have your property on the market with us. You called from an anonymous number. When asked by my colleague Emma, you would not leave your phone number with us. I wanted to call you back to establish where the board had been placed so that we could change or remove it. We had no way of contacting you. We do not feel this warrants a 1 star review. Please contact us to discuss this on 01935 814929. Thanks. Laurence Truett. Managing Director.
Edit:
All of our calls are recorded. I have reviewed the call and Emma did not laugh. You appear to have deliberately called us from an anonymous number so that we couldn't call you back and give a resolution to the problem. As an agency, we do not want anyone to be upset by our approach and marketing. We would have called you straight back if we had your number and sorted the problem. However, you were unwilling to give us this. We erect many signs every week. I wanted to establish which board was being referred to and what your problem was with the location it had been placed in. However, I had no way of doing this due to your anonymous number and unwillingness to give it to us. Laurence Truett - Managing Director.
2nd Edit: Thanks for your comments. I have offered to speak with you to gain clarity on this but still have no way of contacting you as your telephone number was anonymous and you refused to give my colleague Emma your number. We would love (as always) to achieve a peaceful resolution, however, in this instance it seems you do not wish this to be the case.

GoogleExcellent work from Rolfe East in helping sell a family home, being that of my wife's late aunt. The initial meeting with Laurence was delivered sensitively, and the process of their service very clearly laid out. The whole subsequent package was followed up in a timely and well communicated way, particularly from Natalie who with empathy made direct texted information to my wife (who suffers hearing loss) which, as an executor, helped the whole sale proceed smoothly and successfully.

GoogleThe team from Sherborne Rolfe East took on the sale of our late dads house at the end of 2022, Despite sales falling through due to mortgage companies pulling the plug on several perspective buyers, quite late in proceedings , plus the negative overall effect of higher interest rates , they kept working forward and found the right buyer, and achieved a good fair price during a difficult time in the market π

GoogleA brilliant company from the initial phone call, valuation with Laurence, knowledgeable price estimate given, once confirmed then measured up thoroughly for the brochure (hard copy and online) fabulous description with no spelling mistakes (my pet hate) which I knew would be the case, fabulous photographs and video for online viewing by Stuart then handed over to Natalie for the property sales, marketing and viewings β¦ I never progressed the office from day 1 as knew theyβd βdo the saleβ as Natalie kept me updated weekly or more often if needed, as I had taken onboard all of their advice on the current marketplace, the price against comparable property in a beautiful Dorset village location β¦ the 4th couple to view wanted to buy β¦.

GoogleInitially fearful of selling our home in 2023 after 37 years, we were very fortunate to have chosen Rolfe East to guide us expertly through the whole process of selling and buying our new home. Laurence Truett is not like the estate agents that we had come across before when we had considered selling. Laurence guided us step by step through his process, and for this we are most grateful as this process and his judgement worked very well for us. A buyer was found very quickly at which point we could confidently make an offer on a property that we really wanted to move to.
Buying and selling houses in England is an unusual and stressful process where the buyer and seller sit in limbo whilst not being in control until completion. So having an intermediary - a negotiator in the person of Rolfe Eastβs Megan Street - was tremendously useful as the βglueβ that kept the communication responsive between buyers, sellers, and their respective solicitors.
So, in summary, the whole selling process from first viewing day to moving out took 15 weeks and was as smooth as it could have been thanks to Rolfe East.
