    Mark A. Smith  FNAEA  MARLA - Managing Director
    I have worked as an Estate Agent since 1994 and I am accredited to NAEA and ARLA. Since 2003 I have been working for the company as a Senior Manager/Valuer mainly at our Stockton office, which is now our Head Office. Many highlights over the years and some amazing properties but equally met thousands of great people and helped them along their property journey. I have even appeared in 'Homes Under the Hammer' back in 2004.On 15 October 2021, I was part of the takeover of the business and am now very proud to be Managing Director where we have offices covering across the Tees Valley in Stockton, Middlesbrough, Ingleby Barwick, Darlington & Hartlepool. I am supported by an amazing team of people. On 24 November 2023 Robinsons Tees Valley was re-branded to Smith & Friends Estate Agents, the new brand I feel is fresh and dynamic which compliments my approach to business. Having seen changes in legislation, technology and not to mention the economic climate in the last 29 years, I have seen various peaks and troughs in the property industry over the years but that invaluable experience stands my team in good stead to be the agent of choice in all markets. The company is going to grow as we expand across the Tees Valley in the coming years. Our vision is to provide a sustainable and engaging Estate Agency that helps vendors, landlords, buyers and tenants with their property journey. In addition our Mortgage team and excellent relationships with local solicitors make our business the complete property service. Away from the business I love sport - football, golf and F1 are my passions and I am also an F.A. qualified coach and coach my youngest sons football team at Billingham Juniors F.C. Dedication and Loyalty are 2 of my qualities and this is demonstrated not only in my work life but also in my hobbies. I am avid Boro fan and have had a season ticket for over 37 years, I am also a member my local golf course at Billingham Golf Club.

    Jaynie Dolan - Sales Negotiator
    I started working for the company almost 10 years ago as an apprentice negotiator. In 2016 I took an interest in Lettings, so I developed my skills and undertook the role within Property Management. In 2017 I was moved to the Stockton Branch to help manage over 180 rental properties for our Landlords. In 2021 I furthered my skills and decided that I wanted to be more involved in the sales side of our business and since progressed to a Senior Sales Negotiator. By doing this, I have a wealth of knowledge and experience in both areas which is very useful dealing with new Landlords. I also love dealing with buyers and Vendors helping them with their moving journey. Outside of work, I enjoy travelling, having recently taken an extended holiday to explore Canada and America.

      Robinson sold our house after a week in the market, so bought a house as well through Robinson and Claire was a good negotiator . She's the one who negotiate our sell and purchased of our house. Really pleased with their Customer Service , thanks to Mark who done the valuation and photos to make it sure that our house is look tidy and nice and Lindsey as well who helped me through the purchase.

      We have dealt with Claire  a couple of times now, she is excellent, very knowledgeable and helpful with any questions we had. When our next purchase goes through we will be using Robinsons again -our next sale was with another agency and certainly not the same calibre of Robinsons. Keep up the good work.We will definitely use you again and would certainly recommend you to our friends.

      All the members of staff in the Stockton branch have been exceptionally helpful through what has proved to be a most difficult sales and purchase operation.However, the obvious experience and professionalism of Mrs Lindsey Nicholson gave us confidence in the expectation of a good end result,and this has been achieved.we can all deal with this office of Robinsons with the confidence of being well and caringly catered for .My thanks go to Mr Mark Smith and his excellent team. 
    • Buyer Testimonial

      Easy and transparent process throughout. Although we only purchased the agent remained in contact and updated us throughout the offer process. Very happy with what we received 
    • Buyer Testimonial

      We sold and purchased through Robinsons (Stockton branch) and couldn't have asked for more from them.Before selecting an estate agency to sell with, we did extensive, in depth research into every agency and their performance. Robinsons scored very highly and after speaking with Mark, we were sure that we could trust them to do the job for us.We had an offer within 22 days and put in an offer on a property Robinsons were selling. It was accepted, and the sales progression team worked hard to get us to completion as quickly as possible.Since then, we have recommended Robinsons to anyone looking to buy or sell, and we will continue to do so. 
    • Buyer Testimonial

      Excellent service
