Tiffens Estate Agents - West Cumbria

Really unimpressed with this agent. I asked my wife to secure 4 quotes for marketing our property. 3 of these met my expectation after doing market research on the area over several years and the level of service I expected. Then Tiffen came along...... On average the other agents spent 45-60 minutes with us and took account of all the refurbishment work we had undertaken. The lady from tiffen took 13 minutes and ignored everything we had done. The valuation by tiffen was 15,000 lower than the other agents who had all given us the same price which fell in line with my expectations (that I hadn't told them at the time of valuation). My impression of Tiffen is that they are only after a quick sale and have no concern over the client themselves. To be so far removed from the contest when I had 4 valuations was ridiculous. I nearly laughed when the lady from Tiffen told me such a low estimate before leaving after I had already received 3 and knew what the property and area was worth. Needless to say, our property was placed on the market at the correct price and was sold within a month in line with my expectations via another agent. For heaven's sake shop around agents and make an informed decision based on your own research as well. Do not risk losing money because of under valuations (or circa 10 minute agent visits!!!)

Thank you to Yvonne and her team during my recent Property transaction. Selling or Buying Property can be very frustrating and stressful especially when dealing with one particulate Solicitor in the town. 16 weeks to complete a relatively straight forward conveyancy cannot be seen as Fair or Reasonable. During this time the Workington Office continued to chase up the Solicitors involved , and to keep me involved by email at all stages. I would recommend Tiffens to all prospective Property Sellers and Purchasers and would also advise that clients take on board the advise of Yvonne and her team when selecting potential Solicitors . Well done once again to the Workington Office.

I have recently bought a property through Tiffen Estate Agents, and can honestly say they work hard to make sure that any questions queries or details are sorted out instantly, they didn't sit on their hands at any moment, kept me up to date of any potential problems, so my purchase could be completed as quickly and painlessly as possible, for once an estate agent that actually works hard to do the job of selling properties. Sadly i also have bought another property recently through The Cumberland. The purchase was very similar, though unlike Tiffen Estate Agents they were useless, and did nothing to help the sale go through in a timely manner and ignored all questions & queries, needless to say the sale took 3 times longer than it should have done. If you want to sell or buy ; Tiffen & Co Estate Agents do exactly that. I have nothing but praise for them. ( Jan; at Workington to name just one was always on the ball and helpful.) Thank you
