I was the last of the Sewell family to get involved in property and now I live and breathe it! In 2002 my brother called me and said he was opening an estate agency and did I want to come and run it, now nearly 17 years later I am running the 2012, 2013 & 2014 Sunday Times Best Small Estate Agency in the East of England.  Quite an achievement I think! My business philosophies are to keep it simple, treat the customers like you would expect to be treated yourself and provide simple, professional and honest advice.

I’m absolutely delighted with the completion of my sale through Sewell and Gardner. Emily Morgan was outstanding from start to finish, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her or the firm.

Brought our home through Sewell and gardener and dealt with Emily Morgan and Jackie. They were both so supportive and helped us in every way they could. When we got the keys to our house we were greeted with a lovely little new home hamper which was a lovely gesture. All in all I would buy and sell through Sewell and gardener Rickmansworthread more

We sold our flat and and bought our current house through Sewell and Gardner after meeting many different estate agents. The experience exceeded all expectations. The personal customer service from Jackie, Joe and the whole team was simply exceptional. Everything was so slick and professional from start to finish. There were so many lovely touches such as an essentials gift bag upon moving in which made us feel more than just another customer. There were no chasing phone calls, no unanswered questions and we really appreciated the follow up phone calls and emails months later to see if we had settled in well. We were never pressurized into anything. I would fully recommend them to anybody buying or selling a house. Thank you to the whole team! A and L Nread more

Just want to say a huge Thank You to the entire team at S&G - from the initial meeting and pricing with Joe through to securing the best deal possible with Emily O and then onto sales progression and completion with Emily I - the entire process and team have been outstanding! We have dealt with each and every member of the team and it goes without saying that each person has been fantastic - not only going above and beyond to help out with any query no matter how small - but also ensuring they secured the best deal possible. A team that is hungry, thriving and over all well educated in their field of work - a clear and natural desire can be seen and felt by the team to be and continue to stay at the top of their game! We wish you all the best for the future and am keeping everything crossed that our next step - the property purchase - will be through S&G !! read more

We used Sewell & Gardner for the sale of our house. Our chain turned out to be a long and complicated one and the support we got from S&G was invaluble. Nothing was ever too much trouble, they acted very professionally and worked relentlessly to keep the chain moving, their perseverance really helped a great deal. They also had a personable style which really helped during stressful times.read more

Emily was my main point of contact but it was a team effort. The communication was amazing, we were never kept in the dark about anything. We have used a few other agents in the past and you are second to none compared to them. You have been really good and really friendly. I would always tell others not to waste there time with anybody else and to always go to you. We have a really high level of viewings and with every single viewing we received feedback which was very useful.read more

Sewell & Gardner have demonstrated being in a higher than average level of professionalism and customer care quality in our experience of renting. The process was quick, painless and we were only charged just £30 per person for referencing and no additional fees to move into the property!. We ended up with a house exactly as we dreamed after a very smooth process. We would definitely recommend their services.read more

As a first time landlord, naturally I was a little anxious about the process. Neil took the time to guide me through each step and was always quick to respond to any questions I had.The real differentiating factor for Sewell and Gardner is the quality of their staff. Everyone I’ve interacted with has a natural style and commitment to first class customer service. This makes doing business with them a pleasure.read more

I found Sewell and Gardner Lettings to be very efficient and professional. From the first day that I viewed our property to the day that we received our keys was a mere turnaround of a few weeks. The staff were very helpful and courteous; ensuring that all our requests were answered thoroughly. They took the stress out of negotiating our terms and conditions by liaising directly with the landlord on our behalf. It also came as a pleasant surprise to find out that they don't charge tenant fees.. that news made my day!read more

We bought two properties through Sewell and Gardner. I can't imagine how they could have made the process simpler or more convenient. Tenants for both moved in the day we completed.Every person with whom we came into contact with was 100% professional. Bottom line the service has been faultless, I cannot recommend S&G highly enough.read more

Our best experience with a letting agent ever as a tenant! Sewell & Gardner provided us with an extremely responsive and professional service and Neil and team went beyond their call of duty to support and help us - on one occasion agreeing to speak at 7 am in the morning as I was taking a flight and has to clarify something urgently!. Our lease was expiring and we had to find a property of our liking in a week time and it was really touch and go! Only Sewell & Gardner's and Neil's proactive and timely help made this happen! The low admin fees is the fairest in the market and a beautiful welcome hamper provided during check-in was completely unexpected and was a nice touch.We will definitely recommend Sewell & Gardner to all our friends!read more

The process could not have been simpler from initial appointment to final letting, you've been very informative and helpful throughout. Especially as I was away at the actual handover time. You and your staff are lovely to deal with and both my wife and I have felt very well looked after. At the initial meeting your explanation of the market and your company values made it a very simple decision to use you to let our propertyread more

I was very happy with the service I experienced with Neil and Sewell & Gardner in general. Having already viewed many rental properties by this point I was very relieved to find this one and it was great that you were able to arrange a viewing very quickly and then the rest of the process happened very smoothly. I appreciated friendly and helpful staff and that my emails were always answered very efficiently. I also liked how well the move in itself was handled, very thorough, and help and support was offered moving forward, if required. Many thanks again! Helenread more

Having bought a property through Sewell & Gardner I instructed the lettings team to let and manage my property and they duly did within the fortnight of them receiving keys.

My Wife and I would like to sincerely thank you for the wonderful experience and service that Sewell & Gardner has provided in search of our home property. It has been a wonderful experience for us. The speed at which the viewing and decision making took place for agreeing on the final buying price was just commendable. We would like to list down few reasons for this review:1. The transparency provided during the initial stages of the process - viewing booking and interests on the property.2. Genuine approach shown during the negotiation stage was quite clear.3. Keeping both parties interests in mind and not just the seller. 4. Being patient and accomodative to either parties requests. 5. Prompt response and good hand holding of the client within the teamWe hope to keep in touch with Maria & Kate and this team in the future. We wish the team the best of luck.read more
