I let my property with them. Pretty good at finding a tenant. Not so responsive after and a bit disorganised in communication which is frustrating and stressful. Comes with the territory I guess. (Update: had a call from director of Lettings who is working to improve responsiveness and tighten up the service. Fair play and I appreciate the outreach)

Dom · 26 April 2026 · Richard James Irthlingborough

Agent replied · 26 June 2026

Thanks for your feedback Dom, and for your time on the call yesterday following your review. Ashtons work hard to find suitable tenants and we are pleased you found this satisfactory. Move-in is the start of the tenancy journey for the asset management team and we work hard to keep communication and asset management timely and relevant but accept that there are sometimes teething issues with new tenancies which usually settle very quickly. We hope there has not been too much inconvenience to you or the tenants and we look forward to continuing to support you throughout the tenancy. Best wishes from the team at Ashtons.

Richard James sold our mum's house in Wellingborough. The whole process, from putting it on the market to completion, was just 2 months, so we were delighted about that. We found the staff pleasant, efficient and professional throughout. Richard treated our elderly mum with consideration and respect and all the staff were goid at keeping us informed and updated. The valuation was accurate, we were happy with the price we got and Richard James' fees were reasonable. So we were happy customers!

Natalie was instrumental in securing our purchase for us. We were in a precarious position and she drove the process through to exchange contracts in record time. The chain would have collapsed if it wasn’t for her total professionalism and expertise. If only she had handled our sale too!

We have just sold our rental property and Richard James were on point at every stage. They were proactive and professional and completely held their patience as hubby and I could barely ever answer the phone due to meetings. They helped us sort out all manner of bits and pieces and we would not have managed without them. They were just brilliant and I really never thought I would have said this. A huge thanks to the whole team

Top marks to the R&D Middleton team, specifically Bryony Crookes and Aneeka Baker who've so far made the sale process smooth and hassle free. Great communication and follow ups - fingers crossed the rest of the process progresses just as well! :)

Initially I called and was rudely told I can’t view the property as I did not speak to their mortgage advisor, they were trying to push that on me but I refused. I reached out again and was able to book the viewing through a different agent and finally put an offer down on the property. Bryony Crookes has been helping through the initial steps and made the steps smooth. Aside from their policy of declining viewings without speaking to mortgage advisor the rest of the experience has been pleasant.

Thank you for your honest feedback, Azlan. We are sorry the initial interaction left you feeling frustrated, but pleased to hear the rest of your experience was much smoother and more positive from there onwards. Your comments are appreciated and will be taken on board.
