Matthews Benjamin have been very efficient and professional during our recent sale process, keeping us informed at every stage. Someone always answered the phone and responded quickly to any queries. Despite being extremely busy we were consistently given time and treated as if we were the only seller. Great team work and customer service. Many thanks.

We were really impressed with how quickly we sold our house through Matthews Benjamin. Jack and his team always got back to us quickly and kept us updated with progress through every stage of selling our house with them. Highly recommend.

Matthews Benjamin wasn't even our estate agent but they have been incredibly responsive and helpful (especially Nicola). They were representing the people from whom we were buying (vendors), and kept us informed every step of the way. We'd gone with Purple Bricks and they disappeared as soon as we accepted an offer on our house. If we ever come to sell our new home we'll be using Matthews Benjamin!PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

Having bought and sold quite a few properties throughout England over the decades, I always thought that estate agents were paid handsomely in proportion to their usual level of effort. That was until I bought a property in Ambleside marketed by Matthew Benjamin in 2013. The key to a good agent is to make the buyer feel that the agent is working for them and to make the seller feel that the agent is working for them!I had no hesitation in instructing Matthew Benjamin to sell my property 8 years later and I was delighted to be speaking with the same individuals. They know the local market and priced my property accordingly. I had 8 viewings booked in less than a week! And in the middle of a pandemic. I accepted an offer of the asking price less than a week after placing on the market. Impressive. Over to the lawyers to sort the documentation, searches and other such shananigans that take FORVER, shrouded in mystery and without any notion of urgency. That is until Janet from Matthew Benjamin cracks the whip! That lady left no stone unturned and chased, hounded, telephoned, badgered both legal teams almost daily and kept seller (and buyer) fully up to date.The beauty of using knowledgable local agents really paid dividends. The local search uncovered a 20 year old planning certificate where the property name was ‘wrong’, sending lawyers in to a spin. Janet found sale particulars from when Matthew Benjamin had sold the property in late 1990s evidencing the former name... lawyers calmed.I never write reviews but I’m so impressed with the excellent service from the team at Matthew Benjamin, particularly Janet, I wanted to share my experience which was not just better than my experience of other estate agents but in a whole different league! I have no doubt that without Janet constantly badgering the lawyers and keeping the communication between buyer and seller alive, the legal process would have taken at least twice as long!

To begin with very pleased with the marketing of our property, photos & video showed in the very best light. The staff dealing with our sale, in particular Sophie couldn’t have been more professional and responsive to any queries we had. When initial sale fell through at the last minute the team were very supportive and quick to remarket the property resulting in another sale. Highly recommend this agency.

Can’t recommend these guys enough, individually they’re all so lovely and professional! The communication from each team member was fantastic and always kept us informed with changes and updates to our property and nothing was too much trouble especially in the current situation. Great team!

We have just sold a detached Bungalow in Ambleside. Matthews Benjamin did an excellent job in producing the Brochure, marketing the property, handling visits from prospective Buyers, helping us to agree a Sale and then assisting all parties to the sale and in the chain to progress things to a mutually beneficial conclusion.

Incredible service from the team at Matthews Benjamin! They maintained consistent communication providing updates when needed. The current climate didn’t in any way negatively effect the process. They were also highly professional and refreshingly cheerful! A special thanks to Janet Clark and Matt Dixon they were fab!

I rarely provide feedback; in-fact I do so only where the service has been excellent. We had a prolonged purchase due to solicitors' tardiness. Janet was a great support throughout this. Her tenacity, whilst maintaining a positive attitude and having an appropriate sense of humour was invaluable. Thank you Janet.

Matthews Benjamin have just sold our property in Ambleside and we are delighted with their service. They have been very professional and highly proactive, without them the whole sales process would have lacked the drive and cohesion which they delivered throughout. Janet was fantastic, she pushed everyone in the chain to get the sale over the line, without her tenacity, the sale would not have proceeded as efficiently as it has. Thank you.

I had wonderful service from Matthews Benjamin in Ambleside. Janet was supportive, transparent and always available to answer my questions or provide advice. She made the daunting process of property purchase so much less fraught than I'd anticipated, and went the extra mile to guide me through each step and share useful local knowledge. I'd highly recommend Matthews Benjamin to anyone.

We have both bought and now sold property through Matthews Benjamin. In both cases, they’re super efficient, friendly, helpful and professional. From providing local knowledge and insight through to keeping you completely up to date on which stage your transaction is at, they’re a brilliant team. Janet deserves special mention as the ever unflappable and positive face of a very professional outfit - a genuine pleasure to do business with. We cannot recommend highly enough, and with grateful thanks.

We are using Matthews Benjamin for our long term rental. The level of service, expertise, communication and organization is second to none. If ever there is anything that needs fixing or a question answering; then it is dealt with immediately. We cannot fault their service.

Great estate agency. Very professional service throughout our sale journey: from start to finish. Particularly Nicola went out of her way to ensure we were consistently kept updated throughout our protracted sale. She was also super diligent in chasing up other parties lower down the chain, which assisted in keeping important communication lines open. Would thoroughly recommend.

Getting our house to 'sale agreed' took quite a long time. There were times during this phase when we'd have appreciated a bit more proactive communication from Matthews Benjamin but in truth the delay was largely attributable to the conditions of the local housing market. Once we had 'sale agreed' however communication from the office was exactly what we needed, thanks to Nicola (who was great) we were kept fully up-to-date with the sale process.

The service we received during the sale of our property was outstanding. We met Jack for the valuation and instantly liked his manner and professionalism and had every confidence in him showing potential buyers around the property. Whilst the sale was going through, Nicola was superb showing such patient, friendly efficiency. She was always there when needed, and worked hard helping the sale to completion. If we were ever to move again we would most definitely use Matthews Benjamin, Windermere.
