GoogleAvoid. Highly unprofessional, unreliable, and a total scam. Sarah Fitton is exactly as others have reviewed her, dishonest and a scam. She takes your money for her property management services, and she doesnβt deliver at all, on the contrary, she creates and leaves you with problems that she never solves. And then flips blame on you. Iβve lost so much money thanks to her and my house has irreparable damages. This agency is not to be trusted. Not as a tenant. Nor as a landlord.

Hi Blanca
It was a pleasure to manage your property for over 7 years. I was very proud of finding you excellent tenants giving you the rent you wanted every month and had no void periods. You recently moved back in and have for the first time raised that you are not happy with me which is disappointing but I clearly respect your views.
Your tenants left the property in excellent condition, they fully painted the inside of your house 2 years ago at no cost to yourself and paid for an end of tenancy clean for you to move back into which they didn't need to do.
I sent you a 600 page report at the end of the tenancy which flagged a few areas for the tenants to rectify but it was very minor. All the areas you flagged as being damage were in my opinion wear and tear over the 7 years. I visited you twice in your property to go through all of these areas to ensure we both fully understood each others views. 4 Trades people that we sent to your property all agreed that all of the areas you raised were wear and tear and would be expected over the time you have had your property rented out. We acted on your instruction to propose a deduction from the tenants deposit for all of the areas that you perceived as damage. As I mentioned to you on numerous occasions they have the right to challenge this and ultimately the DPS will make an impartial decision. This will ultimately determine whether any money is taken from the deposit and returned to you so you will not be out of pocket if they decide this is the right outcome. This is not us blaming you it is the process that all Landlords and Tenants follow to achieve a fair outcome for all and is most importantly decided upon by the DPS not us. I advised you yesterday that your case was being looked into pending a decision so it is disappointing that you feel the need to write it in this way as a scam but clearly respect your views.
All of the 4 Tradespeople reached out to you some time ago to see if you wanted to pay for any of the work that you deemed as damage, you haven't instructed any of the work so not really sure what costs you are saying you have incurred but please keep the receipts if you have appointed your own tradespeople as you will need these if the DPS wish to see proof you have had the work done.
Since you first reported that you weren't happy with our last checkout report, I have communicated with you over 60 times in a month to try and explain the position. You later filed a complaint which we responded to within 48 hours with a detailed 4 page written response on all of the points raised. We sent this to you on 27th August, we also advised you that if you are still not happy with our response you can take your points to the Property Ombudsman who would impartially listen and investigate your concerns, as you are aware as things stand today you have neither responded to our letter nor followed up on our suggestion to contact the Ombudsman which [after reading your review] is really confusing but again, your decision.
I thank you for giving me the opportunity to manage your property and wish you many happy years living there!

GoogleFrom start to finish Bella was friendly, helpful, professional and knowledgeable. She really put herself out at times to move things along and was always at the end of the phone if I needed to ask/tell her something, no matter how unimportant it may have appeared to be.
I've only bought one house prior to this, so was a bit clueless at times, but Bella was patient and kind at every turn.
I would really recommend Bella at Ashton Stripp, even though I was the buyer not the seller! If the way she helped me was anything to go by, your house sale would be in good hands!

GoogleWe can't fault Bella - I didn't think it would be important to have an estate agent that is contactable 24/7 but it was vital towards the end of our house sale process. We switched from another estate agent and noticed an instant difference with Ashton Stripp. They had a real drive to sell our house for us and their communication was brilliant. Thank you!

GoogleLeanne was extremely helpful and friendly throughout the whole process. Always returned calls and emails quickly. I would definitely recommend Leanne and the team.
My only negative comment is that we used the solicitor suggested by Michael Poole. They made what should have been an easy transaction very difficult and stressful. We had to rely on Leanne to help chase things, which she always did with a smile.

TrustpilotFirst class service from start to finish
From start to finish of putting our home on the market to the sale of the property the team at Guisborough office, Alisha and Jack plus Emma in the Admin team in Middlesbrough were extremely efficient and professional and very proactive in marketing our home. They took superb photos of the property and a 360 degree walkthrough video which was very helpful to prospective purchasers. We were kept in the loop re viewers, and they always gave feedback on viewings. Then when things went quiet in terms of viewings they actively looked at ways of better marketing our property. They also sent regular newsletters of the local housing market trends in the area which was very informative. We were thoroughly satisfied with the service received which in fact exceeded our expectations and would not hesitate in recommending them to any prospective house sellers

TrustpilotExtremely Poor Communication and Lack of Support from Michael Poole
Weβve recently had to remove our property from the market with Michael Poole due to the consistently poor level of communication. It has been extremely difficult to reach anyone at the office, if we, as the sellers, canβt get through, itβs worrying to think how many potential buyers may also be struggling to make contact.
The communication has been absolutely shocking. The only feedback we received was via brief text messages that lacked any useful detail. Despite requesting to be copied into all correspondence (as my partner often works away and doesnβt always have access to phone or internet), this request was ignored.
Overall, weβre extremely disappointed with the way Michael Poole have handled the sale of our property. We will not be using their services again and would not recommend them to others.

GoogleI canβt recommend Victoria Wood at Michael Poole highly enough. From start to finish, she made the whole process of selling my property smooth and stress-free. She organised all the viewings efficiently, kept me updated every step of the way, and was always quick to answer any questions I had.
When the property sold, she worked hard to ensure everything progressed quickly and completed without any unnecessary delays. Victoria was always professional, approachable, and genuinely cared about making the process as easy as possible for me. Her attention to detail and communication were excellent, and she went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly.
If youβre looking for a reliable, knowledgeable, and supportive estate agent, I would absolutely recommend Victoria and the team at Michael Poole.

GoogleFrom start to finish Iβve had a brilliant experience with anyone Iβve had to speak to at Michael Poole but, in particular, Oliver Anderson. He was always great at calling me back, or responding to my emails before Iβd even viewed my new rental property. I then met him to view it and he was friendly and approachable but professional too. We decided to apply for the house and during that whole process Oliver was there to advise and help if it was needed. He made the whole process actually enjoyable, rather than the stress youβd expect!!! Brilliant and a very positive experience. Thanks Oliver! Ally Wood
