Where others failed, the people from S&Brown succeeded. Thank you for selling my house.

Lucy was amazing throughout our sale. I've bought and sold many houses with other agents, but none have had a dedicated member of staff like her only dealing with the progression side. Her support made a real difference. From now on Starkey & Brown will be my go-to agent.

I’ve had an absolutely fabulous service from Kay (Bardsley)at starkey and brown in Scunthorpe.My move has been expedited I efficiently, and every time I’ve called , I’ve been answered cheerfully, politely and all my enquiries have been dealt with quickly. It’s an absolute pleasure to deal with a company that still puts customer service so high on its priority list . Well done Kay and the team

From the first contact with Kara who came to value and take photos, Freya who pulled together the brochure and Aimee who carried out the viewing, of our property the service was both friendly and professional. This is the second time we have used this Estate Agents and would definitely recommend them. Thank you

Scunthorpe Starkey and Brown lettings not fit for purpose

Scunthorpe branch starkey and Brown Avoid please anyone thinking of using these to rent their property through or anyone thinking of renting of them they are very bad at looking after tenants maintenance takes for ever endless phone calls for weeks on end .The last straw for me was in June I Had waited over a year and half for them to paint the front windows and doors and the back windows and doors the guy who came was called Danny he took 16 hrs to do the work it is a complete bogged job didn't sand down properly still can see where old paint was didn't undercoat or prime didn't use gloss like I asked for used dull matt and then missed areas completely and second visit damaged with paint Laura ashley blind in the bathroom. Complained to head of lettings Aimee Murphy who was so nasty and unprofessional and then I find out its her Partner who runs the maintenance side of things DS Projects. A week Later Kay Bardsley from lettings came to see what had been done and agreed it wasn't good and said she would get back to me over 12 weeks later still waiting ignored my emails about the problem and won't answer her phone. Im now putting a complaint into head of starkey and Brown and also the council are supporting me with this but the stress has made me ill and they dont care one bit I just wish my landlord had chosen someone better to manage the property as they are not fit for purpose I did rent direct from the landlord but because of failing heath after 9 years they put it in the hands of these imbeciles .PLEASE BE WARNED I HAVE JUST BEEN TOLD BY A CLOSE FRIEND WHO RENTED OF THEM THEY WAS JUST THE SAME TO THEM. AVOID.

Starkey and Brown have been an excellent choice to sell our property. We were out of town landlords looking for an estate agent to complete accompanied viewings. We have been able to put complete trust in Starkey and Brown. They have completed viewing, feedback in a timely fashion and supported our decision making towards getting a sale. Anita has been our negotiator. She is extremely personable, proactive and kept us upto date regarding the progress of our sale. We have been extremely pleased with the whole service.

Couldn’t ask for more - Starkey and brown sold my 2 bedroom house earlier this year. I was consulted on the photos and brochure and they had lots of local knowledge about the village (Skellingthorpe). It was initially sold close to asking price within two weeks of going on the market. The sell fell through (no fault of theirs) and they managed to have it sold again and I was moved quickly. They were very personable and whoever I spoke to on the phone had an awareness of what was going on with the sale of my house so they obviously communicate well as a team.

Starkey and Brown offered a very professional service in valuing, marketing and monitoring the sale of our property. As is usually the case, the sale did not always run smoothly but they hung on in there and saw it through to a conclusion. Highly recommended.
