GoogleWe had dealings on a number of occasions with Smart Move to obtain our forward property and all the staff were consistently very helpful, friendly and efficient. Nothing was ever too much trouble for them, which was so helpful and reassuring in times of the inevitable stresses of house moving! Telephone calls and emails were always answered promptly and politely.
We would definitely recommend.

GoogleI have recently had the misfortune of dealing with the Tarleton branch of Smartmove when I bought a property. A few of the staff members I met were very helful and friendly, however, this was let down by the manager Caroline, who I found rude, pushy, obstructive, dishonest and unproffessional. The house I was buying had a boiler which was unsafe. When I asked for it to be serviced I was told that I would have to arrange the service and that the gas engineer would have to attend the estate agent office to collect the keys and then drop them back off after. I was also told by Charlotte that the gas fire was only 1 year old but 2 weeks before completion I found that this too was unsafe and much older than 1 year. Caroline could not have been less helpful and when I questioned her about anything she blamed her behaviour on the people who were selling the house. The most worrying thing is that had I have been a young family or an elderley person I could have been moving into a house in which the boiler was leaking Carbon Monoxide. I would advise anyone thinking of going into business with Smartmove to be extremeley wary and check EVERYTHING they tell you is the truth and not something they have lied about for a quick sale and to line their pockets!!

Afternoon Debra.
Apologies for the late response to your review, but we did not receive a notification of this being left. If you would like to email any problems you have to admin@smartmoveproperties.net then I can reply to them more promptly in the future. In regards to your review, I am aware of the property you purchased and wish to respond to a couple of your points.....
1) We (of course) never lived in the property you purchased. As such, when you asked about the boiler, we made it clear that we asked the vendor the questions you put forward and then relayed their response to you. As per Charlotte's email to you, we stated:
"* She isn’t sure when the boiler was last serviced and doesn’t recall having a certificate, we advise this would be something you could follow up via your solicitors."
2) When you asked for the boiler to be serviced, we asked the seller and if they declined, this is also not our fault, so I fell it is unfair to leave such a negative review for something which is out of our remit. It is not the responsibility of the estate agent to pay for the servicing of a boiler in a property which we are selling. We act for the seller and as such, must act under their instructions in relation to their property.
3) When a tradesman is instructed to attend a property to which we hold keys, it is standard practice for them to sign the keys out.
I hope this helps to clarify our position and as I say, please do email if you have any further comments. Best of luck in your new home.
Kind Regards, Tina Wilson - Smart Move.

GoogleI concur with the other 1 star rated reviewer. Attempted to purchase via this company. We found some staff to be arrogant and condescending . I believe they were deliberately misleading and economical with truth. I also question the conflict of interest issue as they sell homes for sellers they have a connection with. Less than transparent and not very professional. My feelings in summary are that you dont believe a word they say, and preferably use another agent

Anyone whom works at Smart Move is welcome to sell a house through us. When a member of staff, or even a member of their family, decide to sell a house through us we clearly put a written notice online and in the property particulars to draw attention to the fact that there is a "connected person" involved. The property you were purchasing was no different and clearly had this displayed in all the details, therefor we strongly disagree that we were anything other than transparent on that point. We also wish you the best of luck in finding another property.

FacebookJust in the process of appointing Smartmove for the sale of a property that has not been straightforward. Can honestly say Tina and the team have been great, understanding and professional, certainly not pushy but totally organised. Would definitely recommend you consider them, even if they are not a prominent agent in your area. - we found them through a friend on Facebook.

GoogleGreat staff, great service, very knowledgeable and they use common sense. Great at communicating and they know the local housing market better than anyone else I have come across.
They were extremely helpful when our sale fell through (due to two local village idiots) and did their best to make sure we didn't lose our purchase.
Thanks again girls!
