Swithenbank Estate Agents Anmeldelser 

James did a wonderful video & planned an open day which attracted a number of potential buyers. After one 2nd viewing we agreed price & James and his team did the rest. It was a difficult journey, as there were four house sales in a chain and James and his team managed the process very professionally. Very happy to recommend. Derick & Tina

James did a fantastic job in selling our property. The photos & video he produced were of a high quality and we sold very quickly following the open day he arranged. He was professional and very well organised, quickly responding to requests for updates. Our home sale and purchase were particularly challenging as we were in a large chain. James was a key driver of the chain and made sure it all went through as quickly as possible. Thank you very much James and the team. We are very happy in our new family home!

We have moved several times over recent years and and can categorically say James is the ultimate estate agent. We recently purchased a property from James and he made the whole process seamless. He is totally professional, honest and was a pleasure to deal with. We would definitely recommend Swithenbank Estate Agents whether your buying or selling. Joy & Les

Deciding to sell my house after 29 years, the only home my children had known was hard. I had received James’s letter mail shot in 2023 and kept it in my work bag. He rang a couple of times and I invited him round reluctantly as I’d already made a decision. However, straight away James was more positive about my home which was not in the best condition due to my son’s business and gave us ideas of how to increase our chances of a sale. Two weeks later we had an open day with 28 booked viewings, all turning up. After discussions, we secured a sale higher than the asking price and James kept me involved all through the process, attending visits by the buyer for measuring etc. Matters started to go array and the day before we had wanted to complete, the buyer pulled out. I was so upset and stressed by this but James was great. This was a Thursday and by the Sunday he was hosting another open day with 15 viewings. Again, he secured a sale but there were issues and the buyer wanted some work completing after the survey which James negotiated and we finally completed our sale on 28th August. I cannot recommend James and his team, Luana, enough for all the work they did and responding to my text messages and emails at all times and over the weekend. He is always positive in his attitude and his focus is the sale, he makes you feel that you are his only customer.

I’m so glad that I chose Swythenbank to sell my property. I did not feel any pressure at any time. James was professional, honest & very supportive throughout the whole process. The photos & video he produced were of a high quality, the open day was seamless & my property sold very quickly. James approach was client focused & caring. Thank you James & your team.

Best agent we’ve ever had the pleasure of dealing with. Friendly, always available, quick to respond and actually completely honest, nothing was too much regardless of the number of queries I had even after we moved in. From our offer being accepted to move in was four weeks due in part to James and his team keeping on top of all parties included. If and when we come to selling we wouldn’t look to go with anyone else other than James.

After wasting 2 months on the market with a high street agent and getting absolutely no where not to mention the shocking customer service, we found James and honestly the process from start to finish was a breeze. We couldn’t recommend James enough if you want a straight forward quick with no stress James is your guy. Thank you again James for selling our property and making the whole process enjoyable.

I cannot thank James enough for his professionalism and phenomenal client service. James brings a breath of fresh air to estate agent service. When I contacted him, he was responsive, genuinely interested in getting the best sale, and went above and beyond any agent I have worked with. If I could employ him in my business, I would. He brings what everyone in sales needs to admire. My only downside, is that I wont get to work with him again sooner!

Having moved house several times over the past years the service provided by James has been outstanding making it all very enjoyable. James always has very active communication with you and are kept very quickly up to date on all of the process. Swithenbank were responsible for the sale of our property as well as the one we purchased. They did amazing pictures and videos which looks great and also helps in the market when you are looking for a new property. James was also very close with us all day on the move as well and with everything he delivers he makes the whole process enjoyable and easier than I have had before. Highly recommended for anyone thinking of selling or buying, you will receive an outstanding bespoke service from James and his team.

Really good communication, very professional. James made the experience seamless for us. We also really appreciated his help getting the purchase over the line as the solicitors seemed to be taking their time towards the end

James you are simply the best!
Our sale fell through on 2 previous occasions and we took our house off the market for a short period. We came across James quite by accident. We were very impressed with the way he worked (the way we wanted our previous agent to work but wouldn’t) and we elected to use James even though we were well out of his area. The marketing James arranged was excellent and following the open day an offer was accepted. James personally did the viewings and 2nd viewings. James was available throughout the whole process by phone and whatsapp – keeping us updated throughout and even did the handover on completion. We couldn’t have asked for a nicer more helpful friendly person to guide us through this stressful time which was completed less than 12 weeks from selling.
We wouldn’t hesitate in recommending James Swithenbank to anyone selling their home.
Thank you James

Simply The Best!
After 25 years out of the property market we decided on James to help us to pursue our dream of living in the Lake District. The whole process only took 12 weeks from start to finish and this was predominantly down to the drive, enthusiasm and commitment of James. We could not recommend him enough. He was always available to help and answered any questions we had (no matter how stupid) promptly and made the process as stress free as possible. There are cheaper estate agents out there BUT James is worth every penny of his fee and wouldn't hesitate to commend him to anyone looking to sell their home

We recently bought a property in Sale through Swithenbanks and the service level was exceptional. We received a letter from them in April claiming to have a buyer looking for a house on our street and we thought we wouldn't mind an agent who did the same for ourselves. We asked James (the director) to find us a place and 7 months later we have completed on our dream home - after searching for over 3 years without seeing anything suitable on the market! I can not recommend James enough. Always available to call/whatsapp anytime of day, went the extra mile not only for us but the lovely couple we bought from and on top of all that there was no fee involved with finding us the house (though he did charge the sellers a standard estate agency fee). We met the sellers multiple times and they were also extremely happy with the service they received.

Never saw an estate agent being so helpful and take care of his clients the way James had did for us.
He is super star and I would say the best estate agent I have ever meet.
His way of approaching clients and making them confirmable and gives multiple viewing to clarify any doubts we had .
I wish would have given 100 stars for this man service .
Your awesome James and me and my wife are proud owner of lovely house because of your support .
Thank you once again .
Would recommend swithenbank estate agents and specially James

I first met James when I was in the final stages of our renovation, he came across as very self confident and knowledgeable.
I had put our house on the market with an established agent which seemed ok at first, a steady stream of viewings but no buyers, things were getting nowhere and the agent only had one answer, keep reducing the price.
I contacted James again and he suggested dressing the house, re-marketing and having some open days, he also sent me a link to his reviews on trust pilot. Upon reading them I thought this guy is either really good or he made these up himself.
Needless to say we went with James and to cut a long story short the house is now sold. The reviews were not fake he really is as good as they say.
James will be our first choice of estate agents in our future house dealings and would have no hesitation in recommending him.
Thanks Dave and Chris

Although for various reasons my house was likely to be difficult to sell, James found an interested buyer within a couple of days. He was always friendly and approachable and ready to give prompt help and advice when necessary. He was also of valuable help in my own purchase. He was always prepared to go the extra mile and ensured that sale and purchase were achieved on the same day. I would definitely recommend him.

Only have positives to share with regards to the end to end experience working with James Swithenbank and the sale of our property recently. Extremely professional and communicative throughout, considerate and accommodating in all aspects from listing and promoting, setting up open days to staging the property and pushing through the sale with buyers. Would highly recommend using James to anybody looking to buy or sell a home. Top class!

James is really helpful and honest guy help me to find the right house.
I get 5 stars service.
It makes my move easy.

The service James provided has been exceptional, through some quite tricky moments in the sale process James has been calm, reassuring and he has gone above and beyond the level of service I expected.
His approach to marketing (drone footage), content and open days was refreshing compared to the endless ‘viewings’ previous agents had tried, which makes such a difference.
I don’t think I would have gotten through the process without his support and advice and would highly recommend James.

James was externally helping in getting the best deal for us. Sharing his experiences with us and how he does things. I would highly recommend.
