GoogleWe have just sold our house and purchased our new home, both, with the support from Seymours, Staines.
This is a case of 'third time lucky', having placed our house for sale previously via two other agents.
This leads me to the finer detail of how Seymours came to market our property and successfully sell our home.
We had not been able to find a house that we loved more than our own home, having looked as far as Solihull for affordability and a sense of a leafy town. We did not want to move unless the lifestyle changes and opportunities seemed worthwhile. We love our house, after 18 years, we just needed a change.
It was Gary from Seymours that reached out to us with an opportunity to purchase a beautiful flat more locally. We had never considered purchasing a flat and certainly not a new build. From the moment we viewed the flat, our options opened up.
As Seymours were selling the flat it seemed sensible on a communications basis to sell through them too. We feel that this could have been complicated because they would need to balance working for both us the sellers of our home and of course, balancing the needs of the developer selling the property to us. We fortunately are blessed to have a brilliant man who is the developer so he helped manage the process.
Mark, Seymours was great upon our first meeting, pleasant to speak with and wasn't pushy. He was realistic and managed our expectations well around where to place ourselves on the marketplace with the knowledge of how house sales were going. We have found the whole team at Seymours to be professional.
Gary has been super patient and kept us updated well. We found Gary to be a professional, positive and reliable person with a gentle manner. He has guided us through a very difficult process and never lost patience along the way.
Thank you Gary for reaching out with the curveball of considering a flat, your wild card might just be a very happy home for us.
Thank you Mark, Gary, Alan and Billy!

GoogleMy family and I have recently rented and moved into a property through Seymours Staines - I just wanted to take a moment to comment on the absolutely flawless service we have received throughout the entire renting process. Having rented in the past, I can say without any doubt that Helen and the team are by far the most experienced and client-orientated agents I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with.
From start to finish, team correspondence and communication when trying to find a home was impeccable! I am honestly not surprised that we found our dream home with the team at Seymours Staines.
Not only did we find our dream home, but we also found it on our first viewing! - which I am sure most would agree is an absolute testament to the services the agency provide. References were simple, communications from the landlord were made clear, and the move-in procedures were easy to follow, professional and exceedingly informative.
I could write all day long about the astounding service myself and my family have received! So I would love to thank Seymours Staines and Helen in particular for finding us our dream home! Agents like Helen are few and far between, so I wanted to really convey my love and appreciation for the Staines team!
Thank you again Seymours Staines! These sunny views NEVER get boring!

I have been searching for a suitable property for many months so have had dealings with all of the estate agents In & around the area . I have found Seymour’s to be the most professional , friendly & the level of communication has been superb . I have been kept in the loop & updated at every point & I have appreciated that immensely . Lack of communication has been an issue with other estate agents . Gary has been especially helpful & so too has Simon .

It's such a basic thing to do - talk! For us, it doesn't matter who to, the buyer, the seller, the solicitors, mortgage brokers, other agents in the chain, we don't even mind doing their job for them, in fact, we expect it. One thing is for sure, open and honest communication underpinned by knowledge, makes the whole journey so much more enjoyable for both you and us. Thanks for using us Mrs Phillips and we love to be recommended.

GoogleI cannot recommend Seymours highly enough, I have received excellent service from them. I worked with Helen for several months and she went over and beyond her remit, time and time again. Her approach was always super high energy, while considering the best for all parties concerned and thinking outside the box to make things work. Much more professional and value for money compared to the typically larger agents.

GoogleSeymours has played a major role in helping us to achieve a successful house sale following our dreadful experience with another local agency which was very rude and lacking professionalism.
We were extremely disappointed with this first agent who wasted 2 precious months during the summer time where the house market price was at its best to sell our property. This left us sceptic as to being able to trust another agent again. That was until we contacted Mark (Seymours) who managed to convince us to give it a try again with his agency appreciating that he and his team had also managed to sell successfully another house in our same street with a neighbour we knew quite well.
We are forever grateful for Mark’s support who has shown a high level of expertise and professionalism during the time our property was on sale on the market. He played an important role in providing an accurate and realistic valuation of our property and in reinsuring us about the unique opportunity we had before the winter came, at a time where we were dealing with multiple personal challenges in our life.
We would also like to thank his team and more specifically Simon, Alan, Billy, Gary and Sahil who also helped by maintaining a smooth communication during the entire process. They were extremely professional, very kind and their approach were smooth, removing any ambiguities and/or misunderstandings during the entire process.
I have no hesitation in recommending Seymours to anyone hoping to sale their property successfully.
Thank you again to all the Seymours team for all their help and commitment. We wish you all a great year 2023 filled with more happy clients like us.

But you accepted the advice and acted on it and for that I am grateful. We are delighted that you can now move on with your lives and pleased that we played a small part in helping you to do you. Thank you for your business and we wish you every happiness in the future.

GoogleMark at Seymours has provided exceptional service with the selling of my late mother’s house for my sister and I. He has a really good understanding of the local market especially when considering valuations.
At no point did Mark try to pressurise us into using Seymours services, but let the apparent ability of other estate agents make the choice easy
We never had any problems contacting Mark and the Seymours team when necessary and Mark was always punctual when attending meetings.
When an issue highlighted by the survey arose Mark’s guidance and experience were superb. He negotiated well on our behalf to ensure we achieved a fair sale price.
We are very pleased we chose Seymours

GoogleWe started our property search back in March this year. The long stressful process of buying a house was made that bit less stressful by the amazing staff at Seymour’s in Staines. We had dealings with Gary, Mark and Alan and are beyond happy with the support they provided throughout the process. We finally exchanged today and I honestly cannot thank Seymour’s enough for all their hard work and support in assisting us with our purchase. I was starting to give up, but thankfully Alan supported us through the last hurdle! I would highly recommend Seymour’s to anyone looking to purchase their home, especially as First Time Buyers like ourselves as it is all a lot to take in. They took time to explain everything so that we could understand it and with me asking so many questions along with multiple emails and phone calls, they dealt with it all so patiently and efficiently. Thank you Seymours - We are looking forward to completion:)
We hope to deal with you again in the future.

Mark has very good local knowledge and is very understanding of a clients' request and understands the market well. Gary and Sahil made a great team in showing people around the house and constantly calling us with updates. Allan chased solicitors and agents in the chain and gave us what felt like a daily update on the progression of sale and purchase. Overall it has been a good experience made smoother and faster by Seymours. I will definitely use them again and highly recommend them.

GoogleMark made the choice easy on what Estate Agents to choose. He is down to earth, highly knowledgeable in the local market and area. He made no unrealistic promises (unlike other Agents). Only a promise that he and his team would work hard to sell our property....Mark kept to his word.
We accepted an offer within a week after numerous viewings. I was kept up to date with all processes. Everything was running smoothly until the buyers pulled out at point of exchange The same week the housing market took a dive!
The team got straight back on the task finding appropriate potential buyers and we soon accepted an offer.
This process was quite long and and not as straight forward as the first (no fault of Seymours.) But again we were kept up to date, Alan and Billy kept on top of actions.
Choose Seymours, they work hard, get to know your home, they match suitable potential buyers to your property. The team are helpful, friendly and approachable.
Thank you Mark, Gary, Sohail Billy and especially not forgetting Alan who continuously kept me updated and gave a nudge when needed to help move to completion.

TrustpilotScam Letters
Keep getting fake letters through my door for the past 3 years saying Mr & Mrs M are looking to buy a house in the area with their 2 kids and are currently living with friends, the same letter for 3 years. They even sent the letter to us about 4 days after the house had finished being built and it continues all these years later. I called for the 4th time today and the Blackwater branch manager had the nerve to ask me why its an issue, he said that he gets pizza leaflets through the door so why should I care?

GoogleI wanted to express my disappointment following a recent experience with your firm.
I called to view a property with a view to purchasing, given our tight time constraints. A lady took my details and said someone would get back to me. I ended up following up two days later, only to be told there were access issues and that I'd be kept updated. Today, I see the property has been sold.
This has left me with the impression that either your agency is entirely reactive, failing to utilise your buyer database, or that, for some reason, I was never seriously considered as a buyer. I'm struggling to understand how someone actively looking, with clear intent and ability to proceed, can be completely overlooked.
This is a people business, and today was a reminder of how important trust and communication are. Unfortunately, this experience has significantly changed my view of your agency, which I previously held in high regard.

TrustpilotSeymours Horsell Are Simply The Best!
After 19 long weeks with a previous estate agent and only 4 viewings, I was a bit disillusioned about selling my property. Seymours in Horsell have been absolutely brilliant from start to finish. They gave me a full and honest appraisal of the market, a competitive price and a fair contract length. Archie was the ultimate professional, turned up on time, called when he said he was going to, friendly and I genuinely felt that he cared. After just a few weeks, I am thrilled to say I have sold and it is thanks to the diligence and care from the whole team who I can’t thank enough. They have helped me realise my dream of moving abroad and I couldn’t recommend Archie and the Horsell Seymours team highly enough.
