Well i only give a 1 star as you can't give them a 0 rating! I'm angry and upset all at once with this letting company.. Not only did we pay money to get a reference for a new property with a different letting agent but for some reason this company thinks it is ok to lie through their teeth and give a bad reference and now because of this not only have i lost £240 through this but as of the 7/02/17 i will be homeless!! So yeah thanks ann at sarah mains i hope you lot are happy with yoursel...

Horrible experience. When we moved out the agent told me I had to replace the bulbs pyramid lights in kitchen and 2 candle bulbs in bedroom which I was happy to do it. I had not noticed it as the room had 7 lights so it was bright enough. But since I had already handed my keys they wouldnt let me do it myself. They wanted to get a contractor to replace the bulb and me to pay for labour for it. ridiculous. PLEASE DONT EVER USE SARAH MAINS they are money grabbers. not fair one bit....

Dreadful They do not answer calls or return messaging. I am a buyer and I would be furious if I was selling through this brand as they simply do not follow up. I have been in to say i will be pulling out if I don't get some sort of update and they have not even bothered to contact. The type of estate agents that makes moving even more stressful...

From start to finish worst estate agents iv dealt with in my life! We found the perfect property to rent, received a phone call to say we were accepted and when could we pay holding fee. We went into whickham branch the same day to pay holding fee to the receive a message the following morning saying another tenant was accepted inatead and we can no longer have the property even though we were told we were the only applicants previously. I feel like we were told false information and that we had...

We have just sold our house with Sarah Mains Whickham branch. We found from start to finish the process was trouble free. Christine and Glynis were very helpful and extremely positive. They are friendly and approachable but always remain professional. I cannot thank them enough for their help. They make a stressful process much easier. Also Grahame is very honest and offers constructive advice . Lastly John creates wonderful pictures that encourage viewings. Well done and Thanks...

I would like to thank all of the staff at Sarah Mains, Low Fell, for their help throughout the process of selling my mother's house at auction. My mother is 84 and was selling the family home which she had lived in for 60 years. The efficiency of the staff certainly helped to make the whole process stress free for my mother and for myself. I was contacted by Dawn, Kaitlin, Donna and Sharon who have all been extremely helpful and kept in touch with me regularly throughout the whole process, in...

From start to finish, the girls were fantastic! We rang to view a property after receiving a Rightmove match, we were quite particular about what we wanted so didn't hang around to contact about it. Lorraine got us a viewing that weekend and we rang on the Monday to put in our offer. Offer accepted, all put in writing and then handed over to Sharon. She was excited for us and showed great enthusiasm whilst being sympathetic to us not getting too excited (in case anything went wrong, 1st time buy...

Found 4 properties to view with Sarah mains. Arrived at first property but Graeme was slightly late which wasn't an issue as we received a call from the office to let us know. However when we went in the property we were underwhelmed partly by the property but mainly by the fact Graeme was pretty much silent the whole time we were in there, he couldn't point out the garage which was attached to the property and he tried in no way to convince us to rent the property. The company as a whole is org...

My initial impression with Sarah Mains Estate Agents, during the valuation, was very positive. The valuer was professional, courteous and knowledgeable and clearly outlined what Sarah Mains offered in the way of services for the seller. During the viewings phase I was regularly kept up to date. The negotiator was a great help and again showed a sound level of knowledge and competence. All aspects of the sale were handled smoothly with one very minor hiccup which was very quickly rectified. ...

I have just sold my property through Sarah Mains in Low Fell. From start to finish the service I have received from not only the branch but also the conveyancing support team was first class. Glynnis from the Whickham branch originallly came out and valued the house and took photos and the details were quickly assembled to go live online. Prior to the property going live I had 4 viewings arranged for the property which was credit to the sales team in the office. The negotiations were handled bri...

The staff tried to get me the best price for the property and make the whole sale process as easy as possible... I live over 200 miles away from the property I was selling but always felt really confident that they had my interest at heart and were doing their best for me... In the end we had to go to Auction but that too was really painless! When the hammer went down they were as excited as I was... a really great team....

We have dealt with Sarah Mains on 3 occasions during the past 15 years. We sold our first house and bought another with Sarah Mains. My daughter sold her house with Sarah Mains and we are in the process of selling and buying, both processes being with Sarah Mains. On each occasion we have found them to be extremely professional from valuation to completion and would recommend their services to anyone looking to buy or sell a property in the future....

Sarah Mains were recommended to me by a friend who uses them at work. They exceeded my expectations - selling a property from 300 miles away could have been a nightmare, but they went out of their way to make the process work. From completing the fixtures and fittings schedule on my behalf to arranging for some furniture and white goods still in the property to be taken away, they were willing to help....

Initial crossed wires with the paperwork Main issue was the abysmal way in which they dealt with the aftermath of a leak and subsequent flood in our property. There had been an unchecked leak in the house for a couple of days prior to our move. There had been two prior leaks from the flat upstairs, which obviously was the fault of the landlord for that property; though SM were aware of the issue. We moved in to a place that reaked of damp, the carpets wet, and the basement kitchen a gia...

Absolutely brilliant from start to finish. From initial valuation, through photographing, putting together the details, reviewing and ammending the whole team were fab. There were inevitably things that needed to be adjusted, clarified and chased up but i always felt that the staff at the Low Fell branch were working hard, effectively and enthusiastically. Dawn and Lorraine were consistently helpful and very positive. We sold our house in 7 days and Chris Parry provided excellent follow up supp...

I was passed from people who worked in Whickham to people who worked in Low Fell. Renting a property for the first time with my partner. They only took references for me after me asking over and over if they needed them for the second tenant. They told me 'no, it's fine'. Both me and my partner signed the contract and thought it was legal. My partner then moved out and I tried to find out where I would stand with the rent and maybe terminating the contract early, thinking we had signed a contrac...

Hi there, I know how your feeling I'm sorry to say :(. The low fell staff have caused me and the other tenant nothing but stress and far too many tears on my part. The person dealing with out rental honestly couldn't care less and speaks to me like something she has troden in so I now refuse to deal with her at all. They also messed us around with the checking process and witheld information making it impossible to move in. I would advise sending a letter to the ombudsman if you were basically l ...

This letting agency has caused nothing but complete and utter undue stress for me and the other prospective tenant. We were passed from pillar to post, had absolutly no idea who was even dealing with the move, nobody ever called back when they said they would and when we eventually did find out who it was they were incredibly rude and dismissive. In the end I refused to speak to them and let the other tenant sort it out. It seemed that no one had the time of day to speak to us, where as I apprec...

Dismal. I felt hectored by the agent who wanted me to reduce the price of my property, and she went on to rubbish the house, all of course, after they valued it an the first place. They went on to not return 'phone calls as I wished to complain about the woman in the agents. Dismal......
