Disgusting property - bunch of extortionists.

Both Seymour’s and the landlord didn’t maintain the property when my partner and I lived here. Damp/mould issues...constant water leaks into the property...never got addressed...rat/mice infestation the landlord refused to do anything about.Has to write a letter to the council - the council gave them a notice to complete all works within 6 weeks. They didn’t do it . The council didn’t offer any more solutions either. Now I’ve left the property the landlord has the audacity to try and extort money from my deposit. For damage that I haven’t caused.Disgusting .Long story short if you want a decent experience/customer service /to live in a property that is in line with the human ha oration act 2008 don’t use Seymour’s and don’t rent 47 courtenay road unless you want serious health consequences.

We have just exchanged on our forever home through the help of Vince, Kirsty, Matt and Lucy at Seymours. 4 weeks start to finish, accomodated at least 3 site visits in between and quick to respond to queries. Kirsty always knew at what point our transaction was up to, made it a very comfortable journey. Thanks to all involved.

I can't say enough to thank Seymours in general and Alex Rumsey and Anna Rowsell for outstanding service in difficult circumstances. Following a terrible data breach by another agency located in the same area I engaged Seymours who from start to finish have been above professional and also 'hands on'. I never at any point felt abandoned as can often be the case in a sales process and I have also felt they have gone 'above and beyond' what is expected of an estate agent in dealing with the multiple and somewhat unusual issues that came up during the sale.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

In what should have been a "easy" sale with no chain on either side we encountered a highly "time challenged" solicitor on the buyers side. The conveyancing process became incredibly fraught. Anna, from Seymours performed over and above to support and guide us, performing roles that were out of scope for an estate agent. Her professionalism and dedication to our sale saw us through, eventually, and her absolute honesty and candour was refreshing to experience. I would throughly recommend this agent and the team

A relaxed purchase

The experience from viewing to completion was very relaxed, they assisted with the negotiation and all my questions were answered quickly. A sale by beneficiaries can be difficult but it was clear thy had an excellent rapport with the vendor. Being new to the area all their recommendations were very helpful which help with a very speedy completion. Definitely a five star experience

Avoid Seymours at all costs

Avoid Seymours at all costs. They are quick enough to take your money and then cling onto it when you move out. We moved into our property in October 2020 and had nothing but problems. Problem after problem, no hot water, no bath plug, a shower curtain where the pole fell down every time you got in, blocked drains, broken windows, no heating, no lights in bathroom, no extractor fan and the list goes on. We moved out 2 weeks ago and still awaiting our deposit. They have gone round and said we are liable and will be charged for things that were already there. It’s funny how Seymour’s do the check in report so they don’t note anything down, whereas the checkout report is done by an external company. Why’s that? Oh to find any reason to not give us our deposit back. We moved out because our windows never worked when we moved in. I reported the problem early March stating the windows do not open and we moved out last week of September and still had no indication what was going on with the windows. We have a 1 year old child and to live in a flat where the windows didn’t open was not on. Not only was this illegal as was deemed a fire escape from the fire service, we were not offered any air con units or any fans. The landlord accepted a 25% reduction in rent but what’s that when we were living in a sweat box. A few of our neighbours didn’t have anything nice to say about Seymour’s and I totally see why. I will never ever rent or buy through Seymour’s and I wish I listened to the reviews before we went with Seymour’s.

Brilliant service from beginning to…

Brilliant service from beginning to end. Ben valued the property within one day of call. Marketing material was impressive and very professionally produced. Property sold at very good price within 4 days. Josh took over from there. He liaised directly with the local solicitor acting on our behalf. He kept in constant contact and kept all parties on board throughout. He accompanied all viewings, as we were unable to be there. He even stepped in and oversaw the house clearance when the company arrived early and we were "parked" on the M25.Superb service. Ultra efficient and totally professional.Great company.

Whole team worked to see things through.

Phone always answered promptly by someone who knew what was going on. Felt that the whole team was trying to help things through. Once they'd got the sale, having Sandra, the client relationship manager, to make sure everything completed was a huge help.

Thank You Seymours

Fab team at Seymours, super helpful. Our property fell through due to problems with the buyers. Seymours surpassed our expectations and had another buyer in place and able to proceed within the week. Amazing service, very professional and helped us all the way throughout the process and kept all the plates spinning on our behalf to ensure we completed on schedule. We can't thank the team enough, without them we certainly would not have been able to move home. We would (and have) highly recommend Seymours to anyone wishing to buy or sell their property.

Highly recommended

My experience with Seymour’s has been great from my first contact with them. The team worked hard to get potential buyers through the door which led to finding a buyer.They continue to keep in touch through the selling process to ensure that all goes as smoothly as possible.I highly recommend them.

Friendly, Professional, Efficient, Fantastic

The team at Seymours were able to find us a buyer (at asking price) very quickly after a few months with no luck under a different estate agent. Their sales and client relations team are all extremely professional and friendly and explain things in leyman's terms for those of us who have little knowledge of how property sales work! The team looked after us from start to finish and were friendly and approachable throughout, and also helped us to agree on a nice early exchange and completion for our sale. I would thoroughly recommend Seymours if you are looking to buy or sell your property.

Seymours have been absolutely brilliant! We communicated with three of their agents and everyone has been super responsive and helpful. Anna, the agent that was dealing with our case has been so supportive - she assisted us through all the steps, explaining the processes in detail, giving us regular updates and following up right away on any questions or concerns we have had. We HIGHLY recommend working with them - it has been a breeze!PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Where to start my experience with Seymours from beginning to the end was very professional and responsive started off with house viewing with Billy a true gem super knowledgeable about the property answered every question asked.Then me and Mrs. Was super impressed with his presentation after our case was dealt by Clarissa who was very responsive to every query raised and picked up call whenever required or called back.We would like to Thank you so very much for being patience with us and dealing with every aspect of enquiries we had. I think we called Clarissa more then our lawyer and she got back to us every time.Thank you Seymours it was great dealing with you Billy & Clarissa thank you for all your hard work towards getting our first property:)

Professional and excellent

Zo and the team went to a great deal of effort to facilitate the sale of our property and the purchase of another. They excelled in our opinion when hurdles (not of their making) were reached and would definitely use them again.

Do not use Seymours, Worplesdon Road!

Do not use Seymours, Worplesdon Road! This is the advice (as I told the manager at the time) that I got from several people, but I failed to heed it because the current manager told me that the previous manager (with whom he'd worked) had now left the company. I said that I hoped that I'd have the sort of positive experience with them that would mean I could counter their poor reputation. How wrong was I! I had a horrible experience with these agents. When I instructed them the website showed four ex-staff members, but in fact there were only two members of staff throughout my time of advertising my property, in Oct and Nov 2020. No doubt they were over-loaded, but a nearby competitor also had only two members of staff, but at that time were handling three times the number of houses and maintained their good reputation. Seymours were inefficient, unreliable, inaccurate and not to be trusted. As an example of their many failures, during the increased risk and restrictions in Nov due to covid 19, and being in my sixties, I wanted viewings to be sensibly limited (I was doing my own viewings). My property has an unusual boundary at the front which puts off some buyers, so I instructed Seymours to ask anyone interested in viewing, and who was local, to do a drive-by first so that they could properly judge the unusual lay-out, after which a viewing could be booked. The following week Seymours failed to follow this instruction with the three potential viewers who made enquiries, so no viewings were arranged. I subsequently spoke to two of these three, after Seymours and I parted ways following this fiasco. One had never heard back from Seymours (even though I was specifically asking Seymours for contact to be made with them) and the other had a totally inaccurate scenario put to them by Seymours, which had annoyed them at the time. In getting hold of these people I spoke to two local small-time property developers. One said that Seymours were the worst agents in the area and the other said that if ever they were interested in buying a property and it was being sold by Seymours they sighed at the thought of having to deal with that agent and their inefficiencies. As mentioned by another reviewer, it was also clear (by something that the manager said) that they put great pressure on potential viewers to sign up with them, if they haven't yet got their property on the market. I told the manager that I disapproved of that practice.

Excellent service …

We’ve been tenants in 2 properties managed by Seymour’s over the last 5 years and have always had good service. Our thanks particularly to Sabine Alam our most recent property manager who has always been so helpful.
