My rental property was managed by Aishah from Manning Staintons. The tenants and I were super impressed by her efficiency in dealing with any issues. We were kept up to date with everything. I would like to thank her for her work and will not hesitate to use Manning Staintons in the future.

Review of Property Management Agent: Nicky Scales A heartfelt thank you for outstanding support and professionalism We have recently experienced an incredibly stressful period as landlords, spanning the last six months. Unfortunately, our tenant failed to pay rent, which led us to instruct solicitors to resolve the matter. Although the tenant has now vacated the property, they left the house in a truly appalling condition, one which was deeply distressing to deal with. Throughout this entire ordeal, our property management agent, Nicky Scales, has been nothing short of wonderful. Navigating the complexities of property law and tenant disputes can be overwhelming, but Nicky’s guidance made all the difference. She was always professional, patient, and exceptionally kind, gently leading us through every step and ensuring we felt supported and understood. Nicky’s expertise and dedication have been invaluable. She handled each challenge with remarkable composure and empathy, providing clear advice and reassurance when we needed it most. Her communication was prompt and thorough, making a daunting process far more manageable. We are truly grateful for her hard work and unwavering commitment to us. We wholeheartedly recommend Nicky Scales to anyone seeking a trustworthy and compassionate property management agent. Her professionalism and genuine care set her apart, and we feel very fortunate to have had her in our corner during such a difficult time.

What a fantastic estate agent. The best I've ever dealt with by far. Rachel and Mike especially, thank you. The care, speed, attention and calmness was second to none. Even on my moving day, when it got late getting the keys. Inviting me and my dog into your office, making me a cup of tea and getting a bowl of water for my dog. Amazing. Thank you once again. Five stars 🌟

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent experience with Ollie. I truly recommend him!!!!!!! I had a great experience speaking with Ollie about buying a home. He was very knowledgeable and answered ALL my questions perfectly and in detail. He took the time to explain everything clearly, including how shared ownership works, and was very patient throughout the whole conversation. As a first-time buyer, I felt much more confident and informed after talking to him. Highly recommend!!!!!!!! TOP TOP TOP!!!!!!
