I received excellent service from Lucinda-following Judy's swift introduction- at Monks, Shrewsbury who went the extra mile to find me a suitable rental property, which alleviated my stress levels during an extremely busy time in the property market. I was kept advised on a regular basis and recently moved in. The property is superb and I have no hesitation in recommending their services.PositiveResponsiveness

Brilliant service from start to finish, every single employee of Monks is extremely helpful and professional. When the time comes to using an estate agent again, we will without a doubt be using Monks. Thanks for a great service, keep up the great work.

I’ve been using Monks for over 10 years looking after a couple of property’s that they rent out for me whilst I’m working abroad. I have been impressed with their professional attitude and knowledge of the rental market. One of my property’s is an apartment which has a high turnover of people in the 10+ years Monks have managed it the longest it’s been empty is about 3 weeks. I have no issues recommending Monks certainly if you are considering rental.PositiveProfessionalism

We were first time buyers and decided to buy our first home with Monks Estate and Letting Agents. We were kept up to date with developments throughout. Buying your first home can be very stressful but the team at Monks made the experience exciting. I would not hesitate to use or recommend Monks again in the future.

Nice on the face of it but I don’t recommend trusting this outfit.

I’ve had several experiences with Monks over the years and not one of them good. During the sale of a property they missed turning up to meet potential buyers several times. Each time a different excuse, “I forgot” being the most infuriating. They are very friendly on the face out and I am very forgiving. Too forgiving. Another time was a purchase of a property, it was a small 2 bedroom flat, they constantly tried to lead me towards their own overpriced conveyancers, actually misleading me with costs so they could make an introductory commission. So dishonest, I stopped trusting them at this point. Most recently we’ve been looking for a rental property for a family member and I’ve never encountered such unwillingness to help. Useless is a word that comes to mind. They don’t give a hoot about the customer, it’s all about ££ for them.Untrustworthy, uncaring and most dangerously they do it all with a smile and falseness - just as you expect from your stereotypical estate agent. Awful.

My thanks to an excellent property Manager.

In the 20 years that KF has managed my property at Belsize Park, there have been two outstanding property managers - Phillip Dunn is one of them. He has been proactive, responsive, and calm 'under fire' - I totally rely on his judgment which is critical to me as an overseas owner. He is a credit to KF.

Excellent experience

Phillip Dunn was my property manager for the apartment in London where I moved a year ago. From the first day the communication was excellent. Phillip was very professional and always available for an advice about different features of this modern apartment or to provide precious and timely assistance for different maintenance services. If there were some outstanding issues, Phillip took good care of it so I didn't have to worry that anything would potentially be forgotten. Best property manager I ever had. Well done, Phillip, many thanks!

We found Monks to be extremely helpful in supporting us in selling our late parents’ home, particularly as this had to be done remotely. We could not have asked for a more friendly and efficient team to guide us through the whole process from the initial marketing to the final completion. We would recommend Monks Estate Agents without reservation to anyone looking to sell/buy property in Shropshire.PositiveProfessionalism
