Client Reviews
Excellent rating
Based on 66 reviewsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great personal and efficient Estate Agents. We had great service from Symonds-Taylor. We had tried to sell our period home a few years ago, but despite Rob Symonds' best efforts at that time getting prospective buyers through and enthusing them about our home we were let down by a couple of dubious surveyors being unfairly negative about the house. After a few years renting it out, we went to sell again. Selling a home is always stressful but we felt we would be in good hands from our previous experience, and we were not wrong. Claire and Rob provided an efficient, pleasant and 'personal' advice and service throughout, and steered the sale through with little fuss. Thank you!! Sahan Rannan-EliyaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Rob and the team are fantastic, through the buying process they made things easy and truly care about the customer. Very highly recommended! James TappendenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Brilliant estate agents. I have dealt with a lot of estate agents up here and these are definitely one of the best. Josh SpurlingTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend the team at Symonds Taylor. They guided me through sale and purchase and made the process straightforward and stress free. Caroline LambTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Rob and the team are fantastic, there isn’t another Newcastle estate agent I would consider using. We have now been through two sales and a purchase with the team in recent years. They were able to act incredibly quickly on our recent sale, providing an honest well thought out valuation, producing high quality photographs and having multiple viewings prior to listing on Rightmove. Rob is able to find the perfect balance between making sure perspective buyers have enough time to view and ensuring that the viewings aren’t too disruptive. During the conveyancing process Claire was brilliant at making sure both sides were kept up to date with progress and we were able to complete within 3 months. Thanks again for all your hard work and a fantastic result! Georgie CummingTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent service. I was kept informed throughout sale, honesty prevailed throughout, which has not always happened with other local estate agents I have used in the past. So thank you staff at Symonds Taylor! Joanna ReidTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We instructed Symonds Taylor to sell our late mother's flat and received everything one could hope for in terms of service from beginning to end. All aspects of the marketing were excellent and attractive. All viewing was promptly and fully reported back. Fortunate to receive multiple offers, we were well advised throughout, suitable caution being counselled before we chose the one to accept. At no time were we pressured: indeed a late attempt to reduce the price was firmly rejected by Rob Taylor before we could do so. Throughout, Rob - and in his absence team members - were available, responsive, reassuring, practical, pragmatic and a pleasure to deal with. We cannot thank them enough and would not hesitate to use their services again or recommend them to others. Simon WoodTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thank you for the friendly, efficient, and courteous service in selling my property. Helpful team, with good contact as required. I would use this team again. Rhona WattsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. As a buyer of a property through Symonds Taylor (was still Rettie at the time) the team were courteous and easy to deal with. They had a reputation for fair pricing, which is how my purchase played out. All in all good experience (albeit limited from buyer's side). Al HoughtonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This is the second time we've sold with Rob and the team at Symonds Taylor (the first was when they were known as Rettie). We've always received a flawless service and felt at ease that we were in safe and experienced hands. Rob was quick at responding to all of our questions and was always available to reassure and guide us. Our recent move was unexpectedly complicated and without Robs proactive approach to keeping all parties up to date and moving things along I'm sure it would have fallen apart. We're not planning on moving again but if we were I wouldn't hesitate to use Symonds Taylor. Jen Bradfield
