Despite a volatile economic environment, James directed 4 potential buyers to us in Spring 2023 within a week of the house going on the market. He has supported us tirelessly throughout the sales process and we moved to our new home in July!

Dealing with James at Monks has been a pleasure. He was very helpful from the start of the purchase process. Very accommodating in sorting viewings at times that suited us. We completed the purchase from first viewing within 3 months. Very happy with the service provided. Thanks to everyone at Monks.

If I could leave 6 stars, I would!

If I could leave 6 stars, I would! I made the decision to rent my apartment in Battersea (I couldn’t sell it due to the economic downturn) and James S. did a fantastic job! Super responsive, efficient and provided me with the best advice for a seamless experience. Within 2 weeks, I had new tenants moving in, at above asking price! I could not recommend James more, he’s really been truly amazing!

I cannot recommend Monks and Beth Griffiths highly enough. We have just completed on buying our house and nothing was too much trouble for Beth. She went out of her way to help us and honestly at one point if it wasn't for Beth, the sale probably wouldn't have gone through. She responded to our questions and messages quickly and we felt her support every step of the way of the process. Would highly recommend very professional and friendly service

I really can't recommend Monks in Oswestry highly enough , we have just completed our house purchase which has taken a very long time due to issues that the solicitors had to sort out . Beth has been absolutely fantastic liasing with us all and in her absence from the office Chris and Ethan have dealt with us brilliantly , they all work together as a team and the time effort and patience they have is something I have never experienced from any other estate agent , from a buying or selling aspect.

The transition of my rental property over to Monks Estate and Letting agents has been absolutely faultless. During the time we have been using their property management services, inspections have been carried out regularly and properly and timely repairs completed under their supervision. This company has my complete trust. Special thanks to Ethan and Chris at the Oswestry office. They are always friendly, fast reliable and professional. Super service - highly recommended.

All they do is ignore us when we apply for anything, feel so judged it’s so unfair! 😞

Beth was great.

Beth Tigbe was great at securing a rental property for me. She was professional but also friendly. She gave sound advice with securing the property. She kept me updated throughout the process and guided me to ensure the process wasn’t tedious. Thank you Beth for being efficient and very helpful

Great experience

With a couple of weeks left for my house search, I reached out to Vinnie from Tower Bridge regarding a property I was interested in. From there, things were exceptionally smooth. He helped me arrange back to back viewings to the property, got done with the paperwork swiftly, and now I'm going to be moving in. Thanks Vinnie, for the great service, professionalism and speed!

Stay away

Stay away! Such an unprofessional agency. Our agent gave the landlord the wrong offer multiple times even though he had our offer in writing. We’ve moved in 3 weeks ago and still have not received our second set of keys. So so unprofessional. By far the worst agency I’ve ever had to deal with

Edwin Chan very professionally Tax Accountant

I have been referred to many tax consultants to handle my property tax matters as their fees are cheaper. However , I still stay on with KF Edwin Chan from the tax dept . He is very professional, responsive and efficient in advising on my tax queries . This is particularly important for overseas home owners as we are not familiar with UK tax systems . It’s really nice working with Edwin ;)
