We sold our house through Symonds & Sampson who were incredibly professional and helpful.
Daniel Magee and Steve Allen were particularly friendly, easy to deal with and very communicative throughout the whole process. Through our home selling and searching process, they were always there to keep me in the loop and share their knowledge and advice.
We wouldn't hesitate to use Symonds & Sampson again.

Really helpful, friendly and positive experience from beginning to end. It was emotional selling my Dad's property but they were with us all the way. Daniel Magee was very open, helpful and attentive. Isobella Rumsby was also very responsive. They went the extra mile.

Daniel Magee dealt with the purchase of my new house and he made the process very easy. Good communication and a friendly and positive attitude made him stand out.

We found Morgan Fry at Symonds and Sampson Wimborne to very knowledgeable, helpful and prompt in all our interactions over our transaction. Quality service makes the whole process much easier !

We have been extremely impressed with Anabel's professionalism in helping us with the purchase of our property. We had some problems with a lack of communication from other buyer's solicitors along the chain, but Anabel persevered and kept in touch, which was so reassuring at such a stressful time. I would also mention that we appreciated the help that Will offered us in arranging a viewing at very short notice. I have no hesitation in recommending their services.

Absolutely awful company, no help what so ever when we were vacating our rented property. We had to chase them for what we should be doing with the house, a checklist etc…we heard nothing from them for weeks then a week before we were due to leave they then send us an email with everything they needed to be done but however with the lack of time they gave us to get it done was completely unrealistic.
Unless you want to do the work yourself and constantly chase them then they are for you!
Also really bad attitude and no help what so ever. Will never buy or rent a house with this company again.

I bought and sold my property through Symonds and Sampson. Vicky one of the sales team was excellent. She was friendly, professional and nothing was too much trouble for her. Always had a smile on her face. Excellent service. Thank you so much.

After using another agent, who were really poor, to try and sell my property, I was recommended to use Symonds & Sampson, Poundbury. I am so glad I did as they have been superb all the way through. I felt confident the moment I was put into contact with Peter Grout-Smith and all the Symonds & Sampson team in the Poundbury Office. Communication has been excellent and I was kept informed at every step in a professional and friendly way. Nothing was too much to ask and the replies were prompt, honest and detailed. This is by far the best experience of house selling I have had and I cannot recommend them highly enough.

We bought a property via Symonds and Sampson, Surminster Newton branch and was lucky enough to have Anabel as our 'go to' person.
She has been so helpful throughout, and always kept us informed about what was going on throughout the long, drawnout saga of our particular purchase.
I would definitely recommend Symonds and Sampson.

Rude and hugely unhelpful I would not recommend! You really need to improve your customer service and phone manner!

First class service from Symonds & Sampson Sherborne! We feel so fortunate to have had the support of this fabulous team in our sale and next purchase. Not only was everyone we dealt with knowledgeable and reassuring, but they proved wonderfully unflappable when the inevitable hiccups occurred. Sophie has been utterly brilliant - confident, communicative and able to galvanise all parties into action when needed! Highly recommend.

We recently bought and sold using Symonds & Sampson, Sherborne. Sophie was superb throughout the process, pro-actively moving things along and keeping us updated. We had a choice of agents when selling and I am pleased we chose the team at Symonds & Sampson.

From the valuation of my late parents bungalow through to exchange of contracts and ultimately completion, the staff at Symonds and Sampson, Yeovil have always been very friendly but professional and we felt very supported throughout the entire experience at what was a very stressful time. We have sold several properties through Symonds and Sampson in the past and would thoroughly recommend them to anyone buying or selling a property. We never felt pushed into anything or pressurised at all and felt they were fair to both us, the sellers and also our buyers.

Symonds and Sampson Beaminster Office
Caroline, James and the team in Symonds and Sampson Beaminster are absolutely amazing! They took me through the entire process of selling my late mother’s house and held my hand, reassured me and worked incredibly hard in what is a very challenging market to get the sale done! They are an incredibly professional and hard working team and a definite cut above the rest! If you are selling in Beaminster they are the only choice. Highly recommended! Thank you S and S Beaminster you made what was a challenging and emotional process as easy as it could be!

Symonds and Sampson have very good knowledge of the land in question. Morgan provided very sound advice about the marketing, timing and method of sale. Morgan expertly negotiated on my behalf and has kept in regular touch during what has been a long and drawn out process, none of which has anything to do with Morgan or Symonds and Sampson.
My family has used Symonds and Sampson's services for years and always been very pleased with their friendly and supportive approach.

I truly appreciated the excellent service, commitment to the client and sound professional advice in managing and then selling our land.

Symonds and Sampson Axminster team provided a first class service for our purchase. They were friendly, informative and helpful. We would highly recommend them.

The last minute cancellation from the Sherborne Office meant we were unable to cancel booked accommodation and also travel expenses, 260 mile round trip , this is a considerable sum of money. I would be very wary of this outfit.
I am in receipt of your reply. I am not convinced and think that people who live a long distance away should remain wary due to the costs involved.

We would highly recommend the team in Sturminster Newton to help with future planning permission. James and Andrew took us through the process beautifully, giving us all their knowledge and guidance enabling us to achieve Q planning followed by full planning permission, this would have not been possible without them. Thank you for making it possible to build our dream forever home.
