Purchased my first property from them and still remember starting to cry with tears of joy. The staff were fantastic and understanding that this was a new process for me and that I needed assistance and support along the way. When I went to collect my keys after my successful offer everything was ready for me with a lovely little moving in gift from them.
Amazing service from start to finish. All staff are friendly and supportive. Don't be afraid to ask for their help and support, they are happy to go the extra mile within reason. Thank you and pleased to have done business with you all.

Recently sold our family home of 35 years after the death of my dad so needed a sympathetic approach. The team at Robert Watts provided just this. All the team were very respectful of our situation and were happy to move at our pace which made the task in hand much easier. Always polite and friendly to deal with.

Fantastic Service! We have just sold our house with the Cleckheaton Branch and the team at Robert Watts made the whole process easy & hasslefree. James gave us clear, honest advice when valuing our house and we appreciated his and Jenny's guidance throughout the sale. Jenny kept us updated and was great with any questions we had. We can't recommend them enough!

Jenny and the team went above and beyond to ensure my purchase of a property from themselves went through smoothly. Jenny especially kept me updated weekly and I knew she was only a phone call away if I needed anything. We had a few bumps in the road with the chain as a whole but Jenny kept in contact with myself and my vendors to ensure we both knew what was happening.
I honestly feel without Jenny and her support, the chain would have collapsed. I could have cried when collecting keys on completion day as my mortgage offer had nearly expired. Jenny worked tirelessly to get us a completion date. I won't be moving for a long time but when I do, I'll be straight to Jenny and the team at Robert Watts and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to friends, family or anyone else who will listen. Jenny especially is worth her weight in gold! Thank you so much!

5start from start to finish! Just picked up the keys to my new rental house. It has been by far the easiest and clearest process I've ever been through with any estate agents. Mattea helped us from Start to finish, gave me all the information required, answered any questions to the best of her ability and got back to me and confirmed anything she was unsure of. Very happy and confident I've made a great decision by using this company And looking forward to some great times in my new place! Thank you for all your help!

We bought our house through Robert watts and I couldn't have asked for better. We had been to final bids on a property previously with them so then when we found this house was on the market with I was happy to contact them for a viewing. They made the offer process easy from a buyers perspective and kept us updated along the way. I'd recommend buying a house that's on the market with Robert watts for sure!

We sold two properties through Robert Watts in Cleckheaton. They were extremely helpful and kept us informed throughout. Their assistance was particularly helpful when our first home hit a snag (spot of damp) which was fixed quickly and efficiently by a local company they recommended. We obtained pretty much 'asking price' for both properties and were very happy with their service. Would definitely recommend.

Amazing service. I had several estate agents came to value my parents old property and James stood out for the right reasons, straight forward, honest and everything he told me he would do came through in a professional and timely manner (couldn't say the same for some of the other local agents!) The sales process of a difficult sale was made as pain free as possible, the team in the office were brilliant, especially Nicky who handled the majority of the sale.
Estate agents have probably had one of their busiest periods in a long while, and comparing the experience I have had with Watts to the service several of my friends have had recently with other Estate Agents, I was truly blessed, throughout there was only one slight hiccup, but that was addressed and rectified immediately. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend this great team.

I sold my property using Robert watts. We were in a chain of 4, being the only property in the chain that wasn't using an online only estate agent. If it wasn't for the staff at Robert watts getting involved with every person in the chain, effectively doing the job of 4 estate agents in the end process, I doubt we would have completed even now! The staff in the office were heavily involved speaking with solicitors and helping to move things along.
They were responsive with my viewing feedback and quick to contact me when people wished to arrange viewings. I have been 100% satisfied from the beginning of the process to completion. I would not hesitate to use Robert watts in the future if I were to move again, however given my experience, I would be extremely wary of buying another property marketed with an online estate agent. I would highly recommend Robert watts to anyone looking to buy or sell a property.

Recently sold and purchased with Robert watts. James, Jenny, Lisa and Nicky were fantastic. From the moment James came to our house to value our property I knew that they were a brilliant estate agents. Buying a house can be extremely stressful and Jenny and her team were very supportive. They took the stress away from us and were there every step of the way.
Professional but also the word family business is defiantly what they are. Me and my partner can not thank you and your team enough. If we do sell again I'm sure we will be knocking on your doors. Thankyou Jenny and team. I am so grateful to every single one of you. Andrew & Georgina

Robert Watts estate agents made the whole process of selling my house very easy and painless, from the first correspondence of me asking for a valuation to final day of handing the keys over they were very efficient and friendly and if you popped into the office they always had a smile on there face. As soon as the house was on the market i was kept well informed of any viewings and then any offers that came along, you can also go online and keep a check of this yourself which i found very useful and informative and lets you know how things are progressing.
They have kept myself and my buyer in the loop as to what was going on with the sale and if any problem arose they quickly sorted it out, i have now used Robert Watts twice and if i needed to sell my house again they would be my first port of call.

We recently purchased a property through Robert Watts, as we were first time buyers they understood we knew very little about purchasing a property and helped us understand what we needed to do. Our solicitors were useless and we asked Nicky for help quite often and she did all she could to help us! Would definitely recommend using them to sell your home or make a purchase 10/10!

I purchased my first property through Robert Watts years ago. I then decided to rent this property out and used their lettings service for this. I have to say this has been a fantastic service for me. The property has been really well looked after. I know from neighbours around the area that all tenants have been great and caused no issues. I live in Scotland and Robert Watts have taken a huge amount of stress off my plate. I will be using them with confidence to sell this property too. Highly recommended. If you're on the fence about which one to use I would 1000% use this agents.

We recently used Robert Watts for the sale of our house. Right from the start when James valued the property he gave us good advice and his professional and friendly manner made us feel at ease. From begining to end we was aided by a lovely lady called Jenny who went above and beyond in her role, she regularly kept us up to date on the progress of the sale and when problems occurred she did everything in her power to help solve the issues, we would have been lost without her. We would definitely recommend Robert Watts and use them again in the future. Once again thank you so much for all the care and support you gave us.

Robert Watts were the agents for our recent house purchase - specifically Lisa and Nicky - and can honestly say I don't think we could have asked for better service. Aside from being professional and friendly from start to finish, they really went above and beyond on more occasions than I can remember, to make sure that we were not only always up-to-date with the status of our purchase but that all other parties involved were doing everything they could to keep our purchase progressing.
They were very empathetic to our situation and we were always made to feel that they were 'on our side' whenever needed. We could sense genuine happiness when they were finally able to hand us the keys to our new home (hopefully not because they thought we were difficult customers!) and we even received an amazing welcome box, that really topped off the all round excellent service we received.
We wouldn't hesitate to use Robert Watts again and can't recommend them highly enough and whilst I'm sure everyone that works there is great, if you happen to have Lisa and/or Nicky dealing with your purchase, then we can guarantee you'll receive brilliant service.

We recently sold our property with Robert Watts. I cannot undervalue the service we received, from initial valuation (thank you James), throughout the process, to completion. Jenny was invaluable in following up any necessary details, being both professional and reliable. She made a stressful time as painless as possible. I would not hesitate to use their services again - thank you so much!
