Terie supported our purchase from start to finish and ensured we completed in time to avoid complications.
Very happy with her guidance and would recommend her to anyone purchasing their home.

It’s not been an easy experience for us due to one thing or another with our chain being so volatile. Buying and selling houses is so stressful and so expensive so nobody is ever at their best but I am pleased I chose Sowerbys as my estate agent as I have found the staff honest and easy to communicate with. Louie was lovely to work with initially and the aftercare team have been phenomenal chasing the details and keeping us updated. All i can say is thank god we all made it here despite the ups and downs I would recommend Sowerbys as an estate agent to anyone. Never again tho!!

Terie was excellent throughout our purchase. She kept us regularly updated and worked hard to coordinate progress between the solicitors, purchasers and sellers across the chain. Her communication was always clear, helpful and reassuring, particularly when matters became complicated or progress slowed. We really appreciated her persistence and the effort she made to keep everything moving towards exchange. We would happily recommend her.

Popped into Sowerbys Hunstanton to start the first steps to relocating to the area ,met Michael who offered practical and very helpful advice then in turn had a viewing of a local property where we met Alison Whitaker who was incredibly professional and helpful, made the whole experience an enjoyable one . Knowledgeable and informative about the property we viewed, a credit to Sowerbys.
Thank you Alison for all your help.

A big thank you to Alison Whitaker for her help today as we started our discovery process to see if living in Norfolk can become a reality. She was well informed on both the properties that we viewed and provided some helpful insight throughout our time with her today

All the staff were professional, helpful and friendly. We were kept informed and given excellent support when we lost our sale and they soon found us another buyer! thanks to all the team and especially Terie Hurrell from the after sales and progression team.

As a buyer we were more impressed with Sowerbys than other agents we came across during our search. They were professional, helpful and “on the case”, following up on each viewing, pushing the transaction along, arranging quotes from conveyancers, surveyors and removals. They facilitated plenty of visits to the house after the sale had been agreed and were good at updating us every week.
Terie was very helpful as was Louie, Katie and Nick.

The team are very professional but also friendly and caring. It was a very long and complicated purchase of our house, but none of the delay was caused by Sowerbys. It was frustrating and worrying for us but when I rang the office or called in there was always someone to answer my query or listen to my frustration! The team listened to what we wanted and represented us. They celebrated with us when the purchase of our house was finally completed. I would highly recommend Sowerbys.

I've been in contact with Sowerbys regarding the viewing of one of their properties in Cambridgeshire, and have had a very good experience so far. Joe Fowler at Sowerby's was particulary helpful and friendly, answering my questions ahead of and after the viewing, providing plenty of useful information that will make our decision process easier. The viewing process was easy, thorough and professional.

All the staff at the Hunstanton branch have been so helpful throughout numerous viewings. Keeping us informed in a professional and friendly manner.
When our offer was accepted the process to date has been seamless.
Big shout out to Alison and George for being such lovely people.

Outstanding support from Alison and the team when purchasing the property.
They keep both buyers and vendors up to date at all times and chased through all required information. It can be a stressful time but sowerbys helped to smooth the process.

Katie Huggins is the best Sowerby's employee we have had dealings with. She was on the ball, professional, and extremely helpful at all times.
Katie even told us we had exchanged on our purchase before our solicitors did!

We’ve been absolutely delighted with our experience of Sowerbys so far, particularly the care and attention that has gone into marketing our home, Baggins Rest.
A special thank you to Shaun, Victoria and the sales and marketing team, who have been fantastic throughout. Their patience, professionalism and willingness to work with us to get every detail just right have been greatly appreciated. Nothing has felt like too much trouble, and it’s clear they genuinely care about presenting a property at its very best.
The finished brochure and online marketing look absolutely beautiful. They’ve done a wonderful job of capturing not just the property itself, but the character and features that make it so special to us.
Selling a home is a big decision, and having a team that listens, understands and takes real pride in its work makes all the difference.
We’re now looking forward to the next stage of the sale and couldn’t be happier with how everything has come together. A huge thank you to Shaun, Victoria and everyone involved — we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sowerbys based on our experience so far.
Katie & Tim

Terie has ensured the smooth exchange of a property that we were purchasing for my mother, with superb efficiency with a wonderful kind and calm manner, I could not recommend her highly enough

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the team @ Sowerbys Dereham for their outstanding support throughout our house purchase.
After the sale was agreed, the remaining tasks were assigned to Terie who was proactive, professional, and highly responsive. She consistently chased both the sellers and our solicitors to ensure progress was maintained and kept all parties updated in a timely manner. Her excellent communication and dedication helped move the transaction forward efficiently and played a significant role in enabling us to reach our completion date as quickly as possible.
Buying a property can often be a stressful experience, but Terie's commitment, persistence, and willingness to go the extra mile made the process much smoother. Her support and coordination throughout the conveyancing process were invaluable.
I would highly recommend the team at Sowerbys Dereham to anyone buying or selling a property. Thank you for all your hard work and assistance.

We had a fantastic experience with Katie at Sowerbys throughout the sale of our cottage. She was professional, prompt, courteous and incredibly helpful from start to finish.
Katie kept us informed at every stage, was always quick to respond to any questions and made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and straightforward. Her communication and attention to detail were excellent, and we always felt that our sale was in safe hands.
We would highly recommend Katie and Sowerbys to anyone looking to sell their property. Thank you, Katie, for making the whole process so easy!

We have had a very positive experience buying a property with Sowerby’s. From showing us round their properties, to the full sale process. Katie from Dereham Sowerby’s has been especially helpful with progressing the sale in a timely manner - thank you.
