Overall experience

The pre sales team were very attentive even when I later faced issues.
The constant change in account managers etc made it difficult to keep up even when the sales were going through as I got No update it had changed.

SCAMMERS. Surely they must be?

Had extremely bad experience with my property sale. Have a lot more to say on this, which I will do later. At the moment just want to get my keys back. My property has been withdrawn from the market and I have been trying to get my keys back. For days have only been possible to speak to call handlers. Call handlers only take messages but nobody ever gets back to me. Sold.co.uk please can I have my Keys back? I feel very sorry for potential buyers as they must be having the same issues and difficulties in making appointments to view properties.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We sincerely apologise for the issues you experienced with your property sale and the delay in returning your keys. We understand how frustrating this situation has been for you.

Your request to withdraw the property from the market and have your keys returned coincided with our Account Manager being on annual leave, which regrettably caused an initial delay. Once Dahnish became aware of the situation, he took immediate action to resolve the matter. However, we acknowledge there was another delay.

We are committed to improving our communication and ensuring that such issues are promptly handled in the future. We understand the importance of timely responses and effective communication.

We appreciate your patience and regret any inconvenience this has caused. If you have any further concerns or need additional assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us directly.

Utterly Unprofessional

A worse experience I cannot imagine. They ridicolously overestimated our house and we had no viewings in 3 months. They dropped the price to less than what we agreed. Then they stopped replying to emails and returning phonecalls. Then I had to pretend I am a customer to manage to speak with the account manager to tell them that the contract had expired and they should take the listing down, and they had the audacity after zero viewings in 3 months to tell me I had to give them notice. Of course I had, they just ignored my emails so they said they would take the ad down and what did they do instead? They dropped the price by 15K and left the ad running, and all I got is an oops, I don't know what happened. Utterly incompetent and unprofessional.

Thank you for your feedback. We apologise for the experience you had with us. We acknowledge that mistakes were made during the process, specifically a pricing error on our end, but we made sure to communicate this with you.

Regarding the price reductions, it’s important to note that these were agreed upon prior to the final reduction. We had high hopes for your property and firmly believed in its value, but unfortunately, it did not attract the level of interest we anticipated. The real estate market can be unpredictable, and despite our best efforts, we cannot always predict buyer behaviour in a specific area.

We regret any inconvenience caused by the lack of communication and the way the situation was handled. Your feedback is invaluable to us, and we are taking steps to ensure such issues are addressed and do not recur in the future.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we apologise for any distress this may have caused.

I had a great experience with sold

I had a great experience with sold. After being with two other estate agency’s prior we had low expectations but sold exceeded our expectations and provided lots of serious buyers from day 1. It only took around 2 weeks to secure a buyer and the team were ever so helpful throughout the whole process, especially Ella who kept us informed on how the sale was progressing when we was in the dark. Excellent estate agency and would recommend them to anyone looking to sell or buy a house! Great service.

Communication was severly lacking


I was treated rather unsatisfactory for a company that claims to provide a good service to sell your property. The first half of my experience went rather smoothly until my account manager disappeared without a trace. This is when the issues started to arise. I was ill informed as to who was handling the sale of my property and without contact for over one week I proceeded to phone Sold.co.uk for the whereabouts of my keys which upon a previous agreement to put the keys into a safe box on the front of the building. I left many emails to this person and to the info@ email and a voicemail to the main company asking for that account manager however I didn’t receive a single phone call for over a week. I then contacted Sold again and spoke to a customer advisor to ask if my keys were put into the safe box so I could enter the property and make necessary repairs. However upon trying to enter my property my keys were not in the key safe as promised and I proceeded to call Sold again. I was put through to someone else and passed over to a lady who claimed she was a receptionist. Not one of them seemed to know where my keys were. Why is there a considerable lack of communication within this company? Not only did I not know that they handed my keys to a third party which wasn’t clearly explained to me in the first instance it appeared that no one from Sold took the time or care to update me at all until I threatened legal action.

Updated Edit: I was told to remove all names from my review or my review would be removed. They have all been removed as requested but still my review remains.

Hi Fungus, thank you for your feedback. We apologise for the unsatisfactory experience and the lack of communication. Our viewing team held the keys and returned them as soon as possible, but there was a clear communication breakdown, which we regret.

Pricing is crucial in this market, and discrepancies between your desired price and the market value may have affected the number of viewings.

Thank you for acknowledging Cemil's assistance. We are committed to enhancing our processes and ensuring a better experience for our customers. If we can help with anything else don't hesitate to get in touch.

Everyone I dealt with at Sold was thoroughly professional, I dealt primarily with Ella Seki (Sales Progressor) who was excellent! Ella is without doubt the best and most tenacious property professional I've ever dealt with at an agent. She pushed the sale over the line, I can safely say without her it wouldn't have happened
