Atrocious service. 4 times we've tried to view houses with them, 4 times they've been no help whatsoever. We rearrange work etc to view a house and only when we ring them after waiting past the viewing time do we get told it's cancelled. So glad I'm not selling through them.

Unbelievable service - valuation Wednesday, on the market by Thursday offers made by Friday - 3 DAYS! Tony and Andrea have been helpful, efficient and supportive and made a potentially stressful experience very straightforward! I feel confident that they will continue to help the house sale reach a satisfactory conclusion as timely as is possible. Definitely recommend.

I would like to thank Brown's estate agents in Norton, Stockton on Tees for all the help they have gave me. I was purchasing a property through them and ran in many difficulties with getting responses from solicitors on both sides, and they were incredibly supportive and helpful in resolving issues and ensuring correspondence flowed.

We purchased a property in Norton through Browns. We were impressed by the professionalism, thoroughness, responsiveness and overall communication and quality of service. Throughout the process we've been in contact with only one agent Andrea McCarthy, which was great, ensuring continuity and personalised approach. She also gave us great advice regarding local businesses and support through redecorating the property. She went far and beyond what we've ever expected from a property agent consultant. Very honest, helpful and lovely Lady. I & S Andersons
