OUTSTANDING SALES TEAM

A professional and tirelessley helpful and dedicated team from start to finish. From the valuation and throughout the sale, Wayne and Richard kept us informed every step of the way, were always honest and helped advise and guide us through the process. Perfect valuation, excellent viewing structure and feedback and sales support from start to finish. Would never use anyone else.

Good service and management

HWL has acted as my lettings agent for a BTL property on the Waterside since 2006 in which it has been fully let with minimal void periods. The first two tenants stayed for 6 years each. HWL has regularly inspected our property and dealt with any repairs in an efficient manner; it has an excellent network of contractors. HWL's accounting is prompt accurate and efficient. All matters are dealt with promptly by their efficient team.

Efficient, professional, courteous & friendly.

The Team have always been extremely professional, courteous, friendly and efficient, acting in the best interest of their Vendor at all times. If/when the time comes to relocate again, I would not hesitate to ask them to act on my behalf. Having been a professionally trained estate agent myself for over twenty years from the early 1970's, I believe my recommendation speaks volumes for itself.

Excellent service from Darren and the team in accommodating my arrival after trans-Atlantic move (with its many moving parts) and helping 'pave the way' with the property owners. Friendly and knowledgeable, I finally felt I was in safe hands after stressful few months. Home at last.

Wayne was absolutely superb. He simply made the viewing relaxed and we felt so at ease. He was very informative and has such a pleasant nature. After numerous property viewings we finally found our dream home with Hythe and Waterside and are currently in the process of purchase. We’re so impressed and praise you all! �

Amazing service

The team at Hythe & Waterside have been amazing. They are always happy to speak on the phone, even if you phone regularly. They have given us invaluable advice when putting initial bids in for houses and pushed the chain along on both ends. They went above and beyond to make things happen in our complicated chain and were very supportive throughout. I would recommend going with them 100 per cent!

Wayne was always available and responsive to all requests, in a courteous and polite manner in dealing with the sell and purchase of our property, even when he was on leave.If we did ever more in the future I would use Wayne and Hythe & Waterside again.

I've used H and W for many years now and always found them first rate.I guess the real test for an agent is how well they deal with things when they don't go well not when they do. I have recently had some problems with tenants (not the agents fault), but Tina at H and W has been brilliant and resolved a difficult situation in a thoroughly professional manner.

Incredibly attentive service from everyone. I have a property that has been let by H & W for 5 years and every time I have changed tenants they have found a new occupier very quickly and made all the arrangements efficiently. All staff both on sales and lettings care greatly and go beyond what is required of them to help. They are totally reliable and have my full trust !

The only agents to treat us like humans, so full of kindness and compassion they went above and beyond to help us find our next rental property. We couldn’t appreciate them more, such a wonderful team with an astounding attitude and work ethic.

Fantastic service

Having not moved home for 15 years the thought was rather daunting. We used Hythe and Waterside to both sell and purchase our properties, the service was exceptional with both Wayne and Joe being readily available for any queries, questions no matter how trivial. I would recomment using them as the service was both professional and hassel free.

Completely open and honest

Wayne has been excellent. We have seen this from both buying and selling. He is completely open and honest, a rare bread. Would only ever use Wayne and find it odd why anyone would not. He is someone on the Christmas card list .

Not a brilliant first attempt

Not a brilliant first attempt. We felt that H&W were only concerned with keeping our buyers happy. Our property was initially undersold which we would of lived with. The final straw was a particularly unsettling telephone conversion with H&W which resulted in our pulling out. With a change of consultant we stayed with them and things did improve.

J · 30 October 2021

Agent replied · 19 June 2024

Dear Ms SmithWe are naturally disappointed that you felt that your first experience with H&W did not meet expectations. This is very unusual, our Vendors and Landlords are very complimentary about our service, hence our ‘excellent 4.9 TP score’. As you will appreciate, since we came out of lockdown ‘Sales’ has been extremely busy with people relocating ‘South’, this has led to prices increasing dramatically on a sliding timescale, it takes traditionally 3 months for a sale to complete and inevitably during this unusual period, prices may change, it is usually taken that each house within a chain will have increased in price too. You pointed out to us that you thought your house had been undersold, it’s price May have increased out of the blue, however when you pointed it out, H&W staff immediately addressed your thinking and a sale was agreed at a higher price. A happy ending to a sometimes unpleasant set of extenuating circumstances, changes implemented well by H&W, all was not lost.Whilst writing we thank you for your review and for giving us the opportunity to address your concerns. We welcome all feedback and hope to that you will keep in touch. Many thanks.
