I recently sold my house through Monks and their team and had a very positive experience from start to finish. Professional, friendly and excellent communication throughout. They helped to make the process straightforward and as stress free as can be possible. No problem recommending them.

We cannot recommend Beverley at Monks highly enough. From start to finish, she was incredibly professional, kind, supportive and helpful. She made what could have been a stressful process feel so much easier with her calm, friendly and reassuring approach. Beverley was always approachable, patient and willing to help, and her communication was excellent throughout. I genuinely felt that she cared about helping us and ensuring everything went as smoothly as possible. Her professionalism and attention to detail were outstanding, and we are extremely grateful for all her help and support. It was an absolute pleasure dealing with her, and I would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Monks, and especially Beverley to anyone looking for an excellent and trustworthy property agency and agent. Thank you so much.

Monks were absolutely fantastic throughout our home buying journey. As first time buyers, we were unsure about the process, but the team was incredibly supportive, taking the time to guide us every step of the way and answer all of our questions. Communication was excellent from start to finish. They were quick to speak with the sellers regarding our requests and kept us informed with regular updates, making the whole experience feel much less stressful. When we collected the keys, we were genuinely touched to receive a thoughtful goody bag. It was such a lovely gesture that made the occasion feel even more special. What really set Monks apart from other estate agents was the viewing itself. They didn't just show us the house, they sold us its potential. They highlighted its best features, helped us imagine what it could become, and made it easy to picture ourselves living there. We'd never experienced a viewing like that before, and it played a huge part in us falling in love with the property. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Monks to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Their professionalism, enthusiasm, and personal approach made all the difference. If we ever decide to sell in the future it will be with Monks.

Estate agents are morally bankrupt at the best of times, these guys took it to a new level. The let out a 5 bed house to me and my partner in the full knowledge that the owner was intending to sell. They didn't tell us this, and when we were trying to replace the carpets (the smelt of urine) they finally let on that the owner was 'considering' selling. I later found out this was always the intention and the owner himself had requested that no tenant be let in if they were intending to stay there a long time. This caused me and my partner huge stresses and put is in quite a desperate situation. From the way they talk to you, put you off its clear to see they don't care about tenants, they're somehow worse than the majority of estate agents and I genuinely don't know how anyone who works here sleeps at night.

Monks have been brilliant helping us secure a rental property after our current landlord has sadly decided to sell. We had unique circumstances and they supported us fully. There communication and advice has been second to none.

Thank you to James and the whole of the Shrewsbury branch. Quick and easy to instruct. Kept me informed throughout. Took an interest not only in the house but my circumstances too which not only built a good relationship but also meant they could advise accordingly instead of generic one size fits all. Would highly recommend!

I bought a property through Monks after a previous house purchase fell through, and Beth was excellent from start to finish. She was always happy to answer queries, followed up emails promptly, and took the time to call and talk things through, something that’s a real rarity nowadays. Thanks so much for all your help, Beth!

I cannot rate them highly enough. They are professional, attentive, friendly and helpful. I have known them for many years and have never hesitated to ask them for advice. They helped me rent out and manage my house when I lived away and always gave me peace of mind and assurance. Their consistency and dedication to the services they provide are excellent. An agency you can trust. Thank you Monks.
