Rude, unprofessional and patronising. Avoid if you are a first time buyer (unless you enjoy being spoken to like a child). Also avoid if you are a vendor- they do not share accurate information.

We have just bought a property in Southwell through this estate agent and have been so impressed with the service that we have received. Helen has been our main contact and she has always been very professional, upbeat and friendly and we have really appreciated her advice, help and enthusiasm. Even through the weird times that we are now living (covid-19) we have received outstanding support and responsiveness. We cannot recommend them too highly.

I am not a seller with Richard Watkinson I was a buyer from them. If I am ever asked for an estate agent recommendation it would be this one. They were prompt, professional, sensitive, and responsive if they said they were going to do something they did it. Helen was dealing with our purchase and she really is a credit to the company. She is every house buyers dream! So Thankyou very much!

We contacted Richard watkinson and partners 2 weeks ago. They called back and unfortunately we could not take the call so called them back! No response! To date still no response. The lady in question was working from home. covid is clearly causing disruption in the work place. If this is how Richard watkinson responds to their customers I am so glad we are not using them! Poor customer service

Very dissatisfied dealings with this agent very unprofessional AVOID! They failed to put forward the correct offer to a vendor of a property we wanted to buy and lied over checks made to our solicitors which they didn't even contact. I would not recommend them to my worst enemy. branch manager promised to call us back but never heard a thing, maybe they were selling the house of the people that eventually had the offer accepted, ( double commision)

We've purchase our next home with Richard Watkins and had the pleasuring of Helen supporting the transaction. Helen has been extremely professional, responsive and helpful providing us with sound advise, we can't thank her enough. Thanks Helen you are one in a million!

We have recently sold our house at Wellow and used Amy and her team at Southwell. It has been a long, complicated and stressful time for us, however, throughout the whole process, whoever we have spoken to in the office have been up to date on the current state of play. They have been professional throughout, they always ring you back when they say. they will and they are tenacious in the pursuit of an answer to any of your problems. I would highly recommend them to anybody locally with a special mention for Helen in the office, who always deals with your problem with good humour and positivity!

As a long-standing tenant via Richard Watkinson and Partners, (8yrs +) I'm sad to say I have noticed a decline in the service provided over the last few years, to the point now of being completely ineffectual. While the landlord has always been useless to the point of negligence, Richard Watkinson's lettings team always used to ensure that the. tenants' interests and welfare were represented. Sadly this no longer seems to be the case.

When this tenancy came to an abrupt end due to the landlord objecting to, and lying about, my insistence that he actually fulfil his responsibilities rather than simply collecting the rent every month, and decided that the solution to that was to throw me out, .

I've just sold my house through Richard Watkinson, and I can't praise Helen, Amy and the rest of the team highly enough. On two occasions, the sale fell through due to issues further down the chain, but the communication was great and the house was always marketed again quickly resulting in offers within days. Always professional, but very personable, Helen never gave me cause for concern as everything was always in hand coupled with a proactive approach. Thanks to everyone at RW!

We cannot recommend Richard Watkinson at the Southwell office highly enough. The whole team are a credit to their profession. Right from the start when we decided to put our house on the market, the taking of the photographs which were perfect which we are convinced sold our home very quickly, the regular feedback and updates helped us with a swift sale and purchase. We are now 2 weeks in our new home in Southwell and living the dream. A huge thank you to the Southwell Team xx

Helen, Amy and the rest of the team have been absolutely superb during the sale of my property. Even after the chain broke a couple of times further down the line, the house was marketed again quickly and I received offers within days, resulting in a sale price of just 1k off the asking price. Always pleasant, professional and proactive, I can only recommend Richard Watkinson. Thank you again.
