Why Sell with Symonds Taylor?
Our Approach
Rob Taylor has spent 30 years working in North East property. He knows this coast, the neighbourhoods, the buyers, and what it takes to get the right result. When you instruct Symonds Taylor, you deal with Rob and the team directly.
Once your home is on the market, we are involved at every stage. Viewings, feedback, offers; we handle all of it and keep you informed throughout.
Pricing
We base our advice on what is happening in the market now, not historic data. That means recent sales, current competition and the level of buyer interest across Tynemouth, Whitley Bay, Cullercoats and North Shields. We’ll give you an honest market appraisal, not one designed to win the instruction.
Presentation
First impressions matter more than most sellers realise. We’ll guide you on how to present your home so it photographs and reads well online. Small things can make a real difference to how many viewings you get.
Marketing
Professional photography, portal listing, and social media coverage that puts your home in front of buyers who aren’t just browsing. We make sure the right people see it.
Negotiation and Sales Progression
When a buyer is found and an offer agreed, the work doesn’t stop there. We manage the process through to completion. From chasing solicitors, keeping communication clear and dealing with anything that comes up before it becomes a problem for you.
Local Knowledge
Whether you’re selling in Tynemouth, Whitley Bay, Cullercoats, North Shields and surrounding areas, we understand how each part of the coastal market behaves. Buyer demand, typical sale times and price achieves versus what price sits.
That local knowledge shapes the advice we give from our first meeting through to the day you hand over the keys.

Client Reviews
EXCELLENT Based on 67 reviews Posted on Google Anya BramichTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a good experience of buying through Symonds Taylor and in particular Claire who handled all the after-sales work. She went above and beyond the service we got from the estate agent who sold our house (Bailey & Co) so I would definitely choose them for my next house sale.Posted on Google Sahan Rannan-EliyaTrustindex 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!!Posted on Google Will DuffieldTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very professional and helpful throughout the whole process of selling a property for me. Would highly recommend. ThanksPosted on Google James TappendenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Very highly recommended!Posted on Google Josh SpurlingTrustindex 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.Posted on Google Caroline LambTrustindex 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.Posted on Google Madonna YumnamTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 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.Posted on Google Sylvia WorthyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Rob and the team have been fantastic throughout the sales process. It was a highly professional service, delivering impressive photographs, marketing material and very helpful advice in an efficient timeframe. I would highly recommend Symonds Taylor Estate Agents.Posted on Google Georgie CummingTrustindex 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!Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
