We sold our property through Sims Williams Chichester last year and although they sold the property for us the service was the worst I have ever experienced from an estate agent. Throughout the sale process it was left to us to always do all the chasing with the other parties in the chain including our purchasers which was sometimes very akward for us. We would regularly call them to ask questions and nine times out of ten we were told it was the persons day off that deals with sales once an offer is accepted ( I think she only works one day per week) for a large estate agent this is not acceptable. We tried to complain to the manager but he was always in a meeting when we called and when we finally did get to speak to him we did not even receive an apology for the terrible service. Sadly we would never use Sims William again or would we reccomend them to anyone.
For the price we paid they should offer a much better service to sellers, especially after an offer has been accepted.

AVOID SIMS WILLIAMS AT ALL COSTS!!! They're your typical dodgy lettings agent to be quite honest, they're as nice and helpful as possible to get you in but once you're in, they're extremely slow to fix any problems but they're very quick to charge you for anything... Read Full Review

Upon check in, they sent my partner's details to the utility companies, despite me telling them that I would be paying the bills. This of course caused several nightmares. Communications were sometimes a bit wobbly and a couple of issues we had did not get sorted although many did, quickly ... Read Full Review

Would not even consider me for a let as I am a professional starting a new job in a new area and will be on six months probation - fairly standard for new positions. Landlords should be aware that this agency is limiting their choice of good potential... Read Full Review

Kindly note that legally, letting agents need to publish information about their tenancy fees, government-approved redress schemes and client money protection schemes on their website and on third party websites (on which agents are listed). For properties to lease/rent in England, agents need to keep this information up to date and precise on allAgents or specify within the property description.
