About Us
Who We Are
We are Symonds Taylor
Symonds Taylor is an independent estate and letting agency covering Newcastle and the coast, with offices in Jesmond and Tynemouth. We’re led by Rob Taylor, who brings over 30 years of North East property experience to every sale, letting and valuation we handle. That experience means straight answers and realistic advice, from a team who know these areas because we work in them every day.
We Know Homes
Every client’s situation is different, so we don’t run a one-size-fits-all process. Whether you’re buying your first home, selling a family house, or letting out a flat, we take the time to understand what you actually need before we start.
We Know Local
As independent estate and letting agents across Newcastle and the coast, our knowledge comes from working here, not from a call centre. That’s the difference we bring to every valuation and viewing.
Our Approach
Everything we do comes back to three things: honesty, standards, and experience. That’s what shapes how we work with every client across Newcastle and the coast.
Trust
We give honest and straightforward advice in every conversation, so you always know exactly where you stand.
Excellence
We hold ourselves to a high standard, from the way we manage a listing to the way we handle a phone call.
Experience
Rob’s 30 years in North East property, backed by a team who know the local market inside out, means informed advice at every stage.
Why Use Symonds Taylor to Sell Your Home
If you’re selling in Newcastle, Jesmond, Gosforth, Heaton, or along the coast, we handle the whole process from first valuation to completion. That means professional photography, marketing that gets your property in front of the right buyers, and a team who’ll actually pick up the phone when you call.
Why Use Symonds Taylor to Let Your Property
If you’re letting a property, whether it’s a family home, a flat, a professional let or student accommodation, we manage the process from finding the right tenant through to ongoing compliance. Our local knowledge means we know what a property in Jesmond or Tynemouth should be renting for, and what tenants in this area are actually looking for.

Buying Our First Home Through Symonds Taylor Was A Seamless Experience
We bought our first home from Symonds Taylor and it was a seamless experience! Honourable mentions to Rob for taking the time to show us the homes and walking us through the features while most estate agents send part time students to just tick your name on an excel sheet of views booked on the day and Claire for meticulous updates and follow-ups.

Symonds Taylor Made Our Move with a New Baby Stress-Free
You’ve made a stressful period in our lives so much easier. Having a baby and moving at the same time would not have been possible for us without you both and would have likely ended up in murder or divorce!
