Professionalism at it’s best

Spencer was very professional and friendly in our recent dealings. His attention to detail, depth of knowledge and advice was impeccable.I have no hesitation in recommending Sowerbys and Spencer’s team to anyone thinking of buying, selling or simply seeking tentative advice prior to their decision making.

I phoned and booked an appointment with them for Tues last week to discuss the possibility of selling my house. My friend and I arrived at the correct time day only to find the door to the estate agents locked. Once the doors were opened, we were told I was not in the diary, and therefore, they couldn't help. We left . I double-checked my app, and it was OK. This estate agent didn't have the courtesy to call me and apologise for their mistake. We went to Longstons and found them to be professional and helpful in dealing with us. They have arranged to view my house this week. Not likely to go to Sowerbys again. Ann Stark

Hi, we are SO so sorry for this. We did try and call to apologise straight after, but unfortunately we had the wrong number on our system. We're so sorry again!

Sowerbys provided exceptional support in helping us find our new home. Their agent, Ma’am Kate, was incredibly helpful and approachable throughout the process, always ready to answer our questions and offer guidance. Her professionalism and friendly demeanor made the experience smooth and stress-free. We highly recommend Sowerbys for anyone looking for a reliable and supportive real estate service.

In this market it is vital to have an agent you can trust to be working hard to sell your home at its full value - not aiming to get a quick sale just to take the commission. I looked forward to weekly updates from Louie White. His friendly voice detailing what the branch was doing to get potential viewers in the door, taking a genuine interest in our family and life. The company took time to know the property and area in depth, giving excellent service to both sellers and buyers.

We have never sold a house before. Joanna immediately put us at ease and her professionalism, warmth and kindness have supported us through every step of the process. It makes a real difference when you know there is someone there to answer your questions, no matter how small. There is a transparency and candour with Joanna, which builds and cements trust for what can be huge life decisions. Above all, it is the great customer service and knowledge that Joanna really cares that makes the difference. Frequent check ins, good humour and the right thing to say at the right time have been her hallmark; especially in the uncertain times that covid19 presents. We want to say a big thank you - it will be Sowerbys for us in any future endeavours!PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

Phoned for information on three houses and Joanna we able to answer all my questions straight away before sending over virtual video clips. These were a great help in determining whether we visited. She was even able to arrange an actual viewing on the same day, which was much appreciated.

It took me almost three months to find a property but in those times Miss Kate Sala patiently helped me finding the perfect house for my family. She was very friendly and accomodating. Thank you Kate and Sowerbys for helping us.

Poor communication

The communication during the home-buying process was very poor. When an offer is made ‘subject to survey,’ it is reasonable to expect Sowerbys to clarify their position. They should have the courtesy to explain that, in their view, paying for a survey will not be considered once a first offer has already been accepted on that basis.

Having gone through an awful time with another estate agent, Sophie and Kate are a breath of fresh air. From start to finish they've been simply amazing. I thank both Sophie and Kate for reinstating my confidence in estate agents.

They poorly understand the role of an estate agent. They push the seller to spend money on solicitors to a contract against waste of time buyers who are just playing with you. They cannot read survey reports and blame the buyer when the sale falls through due to the lack of due diligence they should have done on a buyer

Laura provided many negative opinions as to why she thought a Sheringham property was unsuitable for me, none of which were based on fact. Eventually agreed to check the facts. By which time I was so irritated by her manner, I gave up on the property. One question, apparently designed to dissuade me viewing was: "Do I mind having neighbours?" I suppose one answer to that would be....

Asked to come and value my property came with a brochure of house pre extension and a valuation before they had viewed the house. They must have psychic valuers. Beats me how you can value a property prior to seeing it

Made an appointment with them and was prepared to travel 100+ miles to view both took time off work then noticed the next day it was no longer on the market. No phone call or anything so we did something else. On the viewing day we had a reminder about appointment. I rang and explained about us seeing the no longer on the market they said they had been inundated with calls. So in simple terms they didn't want to arrange more viewings because they had already had offers. Funny that 4 days after its back on the market!NegativeProfessionalism

Karen · 17 June 2021

Agent replied · 16 June 2024

Apologies for any confusion. As instructed by our clients, we paused promotion of the property online until the high number of viewings booked had taken place. The viewing you arranged for Tuesday 11th was confirmed in writing to you and all other viewings on that day went ahead, as planned, one of which resulted in an offer being accepted by our clients. Subsequently the property is now back on Rightmove showing as Under Offer.
