100% recommend Peter Heron - I wish we had went through them sooner. After poor experience with our previous landlord and estate agents, I was really worried about experiencing the same issues. From the beginning, Victoria was SO helpful and eased my nerves immensely! All of the staff at Peter Heron are amazing and easy to speak to. I have even spoken to Michael, from sales, a couple of times when the lettings team have been busy and he made sure our messages were passed straight to the lettings team and ensured the team called us straight back. Cannot fault them in any way.

Fantastic service. Michael was extremely proactive in chasing solicitors during our house purchase. He responded very quickly to any queries and we felt confident he was doing everything he could. Would definitely recommend people buy or sell through Peter Heron.

Peter Heron did a great job selling our house quickly and for a fair price. They got lots of viewings and did them all without any fuss for us. Special thanks to Taylor who helped us and kept us up to date throughout, and gave us good advice about offers.

We recently used Peter Heron for our house sale and can say from start to finish we received a fantastic service from Michael and the team. Michael chased solicitors when necessary and kept us informed every step of the way. We can definitely recommend for a first class service.

Premium estate agent in our experience. Michael (manager) and co have been superb communicators, always responding quickly and professionally. They have gone the extra mile to speed up the process/sale and provide advice/feedback/responses. Superior house photos too! Please open a branch in our new location!;)

Sold our old home and bought our new home with Peter Heron. From start to finish they were with us every step of the way. Taylor was there for us for everything, never too busy to reply to a phone call or email. Delivered fantastic service and kept our stress levels at bay. 10/10 would recommend

Brilliant customer service from day 1 to completion. Taylor was invaluable when guiding us through the sale of our property. Navigating a few bumps in the road, Taylor was professional and informative, and continuously kept us informed of the process. I cannot thank Peter Heron, Taylor and Michael enough for their help.

Peter Heron have managed our rental property on our behalf for over 10 years and have recently seen the sale of the property through to completion. We don't live in Sunderland so have had to put all of our trust in Victoria, Sancha, Taylor and the other amazing staff at Peter Heron which we found easy to do as they are very professional, helpful and friendly. The staff at Peter Heron kept us updated regularly and managed our property to a high standard. Thank you everyone at Peter Heron!

Victoria in lettings is excellent. No matter how busy she is or how many accounts she is dealing with she always manages to deal with our queries and issues quickly and in a professional and personal manner. Our properties are fully managed which gives us peace of mind with the service that our tenants and ourselves receive. If Victoria is not available the rest of the team always do there utmost to help in the same professional and personal manner. Since first becoming landlords 10 years ago we have remained with Peter Herons and continued to add to our portfolio. Linda and Charles

Great experience dealing with this company. We just completed on a house purchase which was listed with Peter Herons today and all I can say is first class. From day one we have had friendly proffessional staff dealing with our purchase, especially Michael the Branch Manager. So helpful and very efficient. I would recommend Peter Hetons to anyone wanting to sell a property and if you are interested in a property they are listing you should look forward to a great experience and staff who try to make things as stress free as possible. I would definitely use this company in future.

Peter heron dealt with the sale of my property and I was very impressed with Taylor in particular who was very professional and responsive. I had an issue with a senior member of the team that recommended I accepted the first offer which was significantly less than they valued my property for, thankfully I resisted and held my nerve. Other positives included the quality of the dashboard and Web functionality.

Also found taylor and team to be proactive when things seemed to stall with legal teams. Overall, a positive service but some learning to consider re: valuations and how they may at times encourage a cheap / poor sale. On balance I would use again.

Fantastic service from start to finish, extremely professional and personable, I found nothing was a problem and were always on hand with any queries. Extremely fair, attentive team. My dealings were mainly with Lauren but I can recommend the whole team. Thank you so much Lauren for all your help with my new property, I really appreciate everything you have done with an extremely smooth transition, I shall definitely be back when I look for my next venture, thank you all again. Have a lovely Christmas x

We tried two other Estate Agents in Sunderland before going to Peter Heron but we wish we had just gone to them in the first place. We had viewings booked straight away and the house was sold really quickly for the full asking price. The house we bought was on the market with PH too. The service we had from them, in particular, Michael was excellent from start to finish.

He went above and beyond on numerous occasions for us as we had a pretty rough ride with the Solicitors. He's professional, efficient and kept the spirits high even in the most testing of times! We wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. If you're looking for an agent who knows what they're doing, go straight to them.

We have received a very professional and supportive service from everyone at Peter Heron and in particular Michael. He has helped us through the whole process, taking us very patiently through every step. Communication has been excellent and although it wasn't a high value transaction we still feel we have had first class service and attention

We have had the best experience selling our first house with Peter Heron. Firstly Paul came out and done our valuation and took some brilliant photos of our house. We both felt like he done a great job! I had Michael dealing with my property and everything i needed he helped me with every step of the way. I have never sold a property before so michael made me feel at ease with the whole process and made everything very easy for us, just like he promised. I would recommend peter heron to anyone! Michael is now helping us look for properties and is doing the best job! Thank you all so much!
