I have used Smith and friends for a number of years for our rental properties. They have successfully sourced tenants of a good calibre and who still remain tenants . Recently Nikki and Richard smoothly brought a new rental to the market, sourced good calibre tenants once again. . I would have no hesitation in recommending Smith and friends for renting, selling or buying

I would not sell my house with these people badgered while I was buying advised by one not to have a survey to realise when I bought the house ive water leaks everywhere and drains not covered for sewage ..no pipes going into drain from boiler ive had a plumber out who also noticed all this aswell.unhelpful unless they are pushing a sale don't care about the buyers so if I sell it won't be through these .I would like to add some of the girls are lovely and was helpful and did do a lot while I was buying but the attitude of some of the others that's caused this review

***update 12:26pm 2/8/24***Email sent to Karen with copies of notes offering a survey referral to Trew Surveying.I have advised I will review the call log on my return from annual leave and contact Karen with my findings. Mark SmithHi Karen Thank you for your review. I shall be looking into this and listening to all calls on return from annual leave as I am surprised we have advised not to have a survey. If you can email me with a timeline of events and who advised not to carry out a survey and I shall contact you on my return. My email is marksmith@smith-and-friends.co.ukWe do care about our vendor and buyers as you can see from many previous reviews.I look forward to speaking soon.Kind regardsMark SmithManaging Director

Ou experience with this estate agent was exceptional and significantly superior to others. Craig came to our first meeting very well prepared, He had researched the area and the selling details of current and recent similar properties. He suggested a significantly higher selling price that two other local agents. We had almost twenty viewings in the next week. All managed by S&Fs, we accepted an offer that was more than ten percent higher than the other agents suggested. They were efficient, helpful and professional throughout. I highly recommend

TrustpilotOutstanding customer service
From the moment our house was put on the market to the day of completion we were so pleased that we asked Smith and Friends to sell our house. Everything about the selling process was expertly and professionally explained to us in person. The advertising of the property was superb with extras such as drone footage. Throughought the sale we were kept up to date of proceedings by the diligent, courteous and friendly staff. Altogether a positive experience and recommend Smith and Friends for your next property sale/purchase.

TrustpilotOverall good service
There was a good number of prospective buyers. Staff arranging viewings were efficient but also had time to chat. Staff liaison with my legal firm was good. I should have been notified that the EPC was out of date and that it was not their responsibility to do this.

TrustpilotDisappointed
I was a buyer in this process.Not enough staff to allow us to view the house when we wanted. Viewing staff pleasant.Sales staff very helpful with negotiation with vendor. Sales progression could have communicated more frequently and did not seem to know very much about vendor details or timings. I had the impression she was totally overworked.When we picked up the keys the staff member I spoke with was unhelpful and dismissive. Disappointing experience.

TrustpilotGreat Communication
Robinson’s were our first experience with estate agents and they made it such a positive one. Great communication throughout, from viewing properties, to listing and selling ours. Nicola was very helpful, easy to get hold of and generally made the process feel less daunting. Will definitely use Robinson’s again.

I had a lousy solicitor,one of your recommended ones but Steffi Hughes kept me informed of the progress,or lack of it by being in contact with solicitors on each side of the sale and keeping me abreast of her findings, nothing was too much bother!!!

TrustpilotWhilst the experience with the staff at…
Whilst the experience with the staff at the Marton branch was good, as far as we were concerned the iamsold team were part of the bigger team and our experience with them was frustrating. Initially we were told that the auction process would take up to 56 days. The initial offer was accepted on 9/1/24. Completion did not take place till 23/4/24, 103 days later. The delay cost us financially due to the changes in CG tax. We later found out that the buyer wanted to purchase as a business that was not even registered till the end of January. This was the reason for the excessive delay. The communication throughout from iamsold was poor with emails from our solicitor often not being responded to. Unfortunately this reflects on your business as this is who we signed the contract with.

Excellent service from Smith & Friends on the sale of my house. From the initial evaluation to completion they were always available for advice and assistance.Within 24 hours of the house going on the market, we had eight viewings booked and received an acceptable offer within 48 hours. All staff were professional and knowledgeable. They were all so friendly and I have no hesitation in recommending them.
