Starkings & Watson Reviews 

Found Starkings & Watson to be extremely helpful at each stage of my sale. Particularly, Liz Hammond, who liaised between my solicitor and buyer's solicitor enabling me to know exactly what was going on. Making the whole procedure run as smoothly as anyone could wish for. Would highly recommend this Company.

Thank you to Ruby and Liz for their help in selling our house

They kept me updated with everything and the sale of the house went smooth
I would recommend Starkings and Watson to sell your property

Although the sale of our property took longer than anticipated, due to outside factors, there was very good communication throughout the process from the team at Starkings and Watson. Where appropriate, update emails were sent, as well as phone calls. The team were responsive to queries, returning calls promptly. A good experience.

Retiring and moving from my London base of 66 years, I asked to view a property on sale with Starkings & Watson. Ideal and instant viewing arranged. 24th January. I offered on the spot. During my drive back to London, a few conversations (hands-free) with manager Sam Homer. By the time I reached London, sale price agreed. By 26th, Sam had ensured that all agencies (solicitor, mortgage provider, vendor, purchaser) were connected. On 26th also, property off the market (sold to me - stc). Then liaison at Starkings managed by Sarah Short. Contracts exchanged 18th March. Completion set for 14th April. This may be unusual in terms of ease and speed. But the obvious stress involved was managed superbly by Sam ( and her colleagues Ana, Tabby and James) and Sarah. Any/every question/process was addressed instantly - and in a very friendly, caring manner! Quite fantastic endeavours by all concerned. Thank you all!

Cannot fault Starkings & Watsons, from start to finish they have been professional, informative and friendly. Chris was excellent at the valuation, Max, Charlotte and Daniel were always available to help, great at communicating and supporting with viewings. Even when our first buyer pulled out, they pulled out all the stops to reconnect the chain and did so successfully in only 6 days!
Janet Riches is an absolute credit to the business, from the moment we reached the after sales team she was a super friendly voice, superb at keeping us all in the loop and was excited as us when we exchanged. Thank you to you all, you made the process a breeze.

Nothing but a positive experience buying my first home with Starkings & Watsons, from the initial viewings, all the way through to exchange the staff have been a pleasure to speak with. Notable mentions for Max & Daniel in the initial weeks, they were both knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating. A special mention to Janet, our case handler - she has been an absolute star and has been in constant communication with us throughout the whole process and quick to respond to any questions - really reassuring as first time buyers. Thank you all for your help throughout this process!

Would like to recognise Danielle Malt and James Leftley for some very thorough and informative viewings. We've been on multiple viewings with different agents and it is refreshing to have EAs that actually know the information about the property and answers to our questions. Sometimes EAs take for granted the fact that in many cases, buyers are making life changing decisions based on 1 or 2 viewings of a property and it is essential they are able to provide clarity on anything potential buyers can't actually see or experience on the viewing. Both James and Danielle were really good at answering our questions, and it showed a real respect for our time and due diligence.

I have just exchanged contracts, selling my house through Starkings and Watsons Estate Agents. Through the whole process they have been very supportive, keeping in touch with updates every step of the way. I would like to personally thank Sales Negotiator Janet Riches for her continuous work with keeping in touch via telephone and email and also for for giving steady advice when things became difficult with my buyer. I would recommed her service to anyone thinking of selling and would also recommend Starkings and Watsons as the main estate agent.

I had a very positive experience with this estate agent during the sale of our parents’ home. As this was my first time going through the process, their team was incredibly patient, supportive, and always willing to explain things clearly.

Given the sensitive circumstances, they approached everything with genuine kindness and empathy. They understood that this wasn’t just a sale, but a home full of memories, and treated it with the respect it deserved.

Sam and Sarah in particular went above and beyond—keeping me informed at every stage, offering helpful advice (including around probate), and providing a truly personal touch throughout.

I would highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a professional, compassionate, and supportive estate agent.

Starkings & Watson were great from start to finish. Jake was our first port of call when viewing the property and we found him to be friendly, approachable and knowledgeable. After sales care was dealt with by Will and Steve, who were on hand to offer advice and updates and every stage. We would recommend Starkings & Watson.

1/5 Stars. Mainly for deleting my Facebook comment today, as you like to silence all negative publicity. It said: I attempted to buy a house through you in 2017 and the service & communication was diabolical. You even went as far as to call my review fake. I haven't been near your company since (and never will), even though I have bought several houses locally. Do better

All at the Brundall Office have been professional, friendly and informative from the off. Told us what to expect and they truly delivered, especially Sarah who has kept us regularly updated throughout which has been much appreciated. Would recommend Starkings and Watson to anyone requiring their services.

As soon as Janet riches assigned to the case,she went above and beyond to communicate all the information from the solicitors and the seller to me .
She is absolutely fantastic Starkings and Watson are lucky to have her.

I would definitely recommend Starkings and Watson, Jake,Steve and Will from the Diss Office were so efficient, friendly and helpful they made selling our property stress free, kept me updated every step of the way, thank you for everything.

The sale went through very quickly and a weekly phone call made all the difference keeping me informed at every stage .
Would recommend

Dominic, Steve, Jake and Will really are the dream team! I recently used them to sell my house and couldn’t have asked for better service! From the moment Dominic visited to value my property to the moment Will contacted me to confirm contracts were exchanged, they all acted so efficiently and kept me up to date throughout the process making what is generally a stressful transaction, stress free! Thanks to you all - I would not hesitate to recommend you to others.

Excellent communication throughout the process. Understanding, human approach and meticulous attention to detail. Made a tricky process so much easier .Highly recommend.

We were delighted to have the Diss branch assist with the sale of our parents bungalow , through a very difficult time. Every member of staff was kind and courteous at all times. They kept us informed promptly at every stage with phone calls, texts and emails and were always very quick to return calls if we had queries along the way. They all made the process straightforward and were very reassuring, especially when we were waiting for probate. Highly recommend them

I was really impressed with Steve, Jake and Will from the Diss office - they gave me weekly updates on our purchase and chased all parts of the chain frequently. If we were to sell the house in future we would certainly consider using them!

Starkings & Watson have been outstanding throughout the process. From the beginning they went the extra mile and demonstrated exactly why they are regarded as a market leader in the area.

Stephen, Sean and Millie were all fantastic to work with. They actively engaged with me to shape how the property was presented and how viewer interactions were handled, which made the whole process feel very collaborative and well thought through.

The marketing was excellent — particularly the quality of the photography and the way the property was positioned in the listing. It really stood out.

When you see the number of “Sold” boards Starkings & Watson have locally, it’s easy to understand why they are the number one agent in the area. Thoroughly recommended.
