Weβve used the services of Trading Places for a second time and they've been absolutely brilliant. Steve came round to value our house and he was very friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. We then had Sara dealing with both the sale and purchase and she was amazing, she gave us some fantastic tips and again she was very knowledgeable and patient. Thank you to Danielle as well as she kept us well informed throughout. A great experience and I wouldnβt use anyone else!
Hi Jez Claudio and family thanks for allowing the team here to help you sell and move to your new dream home. All the best in the future from all of the team at Trading Places Stretford.

Excellent service from all at Trading Places Urmston. Lee was very professional with a pleasant disposition when he came to value Mums flat for probate. Chloe dealt with the sale of the flat and was very efficient and helpful and did everything in her power to push the sale along. Nothing was too much trouble for her and she always made you feel important with her bubbly nature. It has been a pleasure to deal with Lee Chloe and Mark and would highly recommend their services. Thank you Morag
Thank you so much Morag, it was such a pleasure handling the sale of your Mums flat, we wish you all the best. Hope to see you pop down for a Whittakers!

Communication was great throughout. Good knowledge of the market and everyone we dealt with was really good at their jobs, especially Sara and Matt. Would definitely use them again.
Thanks Yemi for your review. We appreciate you allowing us to sell your property wishing you all the best in your new home.

This company took over from Trading Places and I was contacted and told how good and efficient they were. Unfortunately this is not the case as a Landlord it's just been one cockup after another. Trading Places left me in a bit of a mess by allowing tenants to move onto rolling contracts and not renewing insurance agreements on several of my properties. It took quite a while to get things sorted. Also when they took over they kept asking for information I had already provided such as gas safeties, EICRs, etc. All information they should have had. I was getting fed up of this, if they take over an agency then all the relevant information is held by the agency, why am I being asked for copies of documents. Of course everything was Trading Places fault and they are not responsible. Recently I allowed them to take on maintenance, it was over Xmas, but 5 weeks later I hadn't received a single quote. So tenants are left with outstanding repairs and the agents are lying about keeping people informed. If I had not asked where they were upto then nothing would have been done. They also told me tenants were kept upto date, again not true. I spoke with my tenant and they had to call the agency to find out what was happening. They are parasites and not worth using if you have rental property. They let a tenant move in a day ago and then told me today the property needed cleaning etc. why the heck didn't they tell me before so I could have got it done. I mentioned it on the checkout that I thought the property needed cleaning, but they told me no it didn't and now it seems it did.

I've had a fantastic experience with this Places. Julie was experienced and professional (as well as super friendly!) and had excellent communication with myself throughout our letting process. I highly recommend This Places to anyone looking to rent or buy.

Purchased my first house through Hibbert Homed. Fiona was brilliant, always approachable and quick to respond. Really appreciate her commitment, professionalism and care. Felt at ease with the whole process and Fionaβs recommendations were very helpful. Definitely recommend them.

My wife and I purchased a property through trading places and it was certainly a complex sale but they were brilliant throughout, very understanding, patient and helpful. Thanks Sara and team.
Thanks Jack, this was slightly unusual. It will be a lovely house after you stamp your mark on it. All the best from all the team at Trading Places Stretford.

Mark And Chloe are a great team. They were professional throughout and all communication was clear and timely. I felt really well looked after - they showed empathy, kindness and patience (which not many estate agents do!) whilst bringing the sale of my house to a swift completion. Definitely recommend.
Thanks Chloe! It was a pleasure working alongside you on this transaction with vendors like you it makes the process simple!

Living in London, I was faced with the difficult task of trying to sell my close friends house after he passed away. Along with a couple of other local Agents, I decided to give Trading Places the opportunity to bid for the job. I was hugely impressed with Steven Cox who did the site visit and decided to award them the contract. Following this, Trading Places were quick to organise the basics (paperwork etc) and were able to visit, do surveys and set up advertising media within a very short space of time, ensuring that the property went on the market as quickly as possible. I was given good contact details of the staff I would be dealing with and always received prompt replies to the various emails and phone calls that I made. We agreed on a selling price and sales strategy and I received regular weekly viewing updates without the need to chase. Unfortunately the first buyer had to pull out, so we had to remarket the property. I received sound advice as to what strategy to adopt regarding the subsequent pricing of the property. In a relatively short space of time Trading Places secured another interested buyer and a sale price was agreed. With no chain, I was hopeful that a quick sale could be achieved, however the buyers Solicitors dragged their heels somewhat. I am therefore indebted to Trading Places who keep up a constant dialogue with the buyers to make sure that they kept chasing their Solicitors. Yesterday we managed to complete the sale. As I said, I basically left all the hard work to Trading Places, as I was not local and they came up trumps. All the staff that I dealt with provided excellent service, however I must mention in dispatches their Senior Sales Progressor, Matt Butler who was effectively my primary point of contact most of the time and did more than anyone to make sure that this sale went through. It's unlikely that I will need to sell a property in this area again, however if I had to I would revert back to Trading Places immediately - well done everyone and thankyou so much for your help xx
Hi Steve, thanks for taking the time to provide such an amazing review. This review will help other people from outside of the area , or even who have not sold before know that the team here at Trading Places Stretford are here to provide a service which literally helps people from Instruction to completion with staff there to guide them on a daily basis through the whole process. I would like to thank you for instructing us and wish you all the best for the future.

In a stressful period of selling our home , Hibbert Holmes (Fiona) provided excellent communication throughout which was most appreciated and helped the process run as smooth as possible. This took away some of the anxiety, knowing that they would be on top on things

Canβt recommend highly enough. Everything you need from an estate agent. Always easy to contact and go above and beyond with their support. Thank you Lee and Chloe you made the whole experience stress free.
Thanks Cheryl, your review means allot to us - we are happy we managed to get your property sold!

Sold my house with trading places. Poor service. Staff were rude and uncommunicative. Would recommend using one of the more established agents.
Yes you did Ben almost two years ago but waited until last Saturday night at 10.35 to leave your negative review. I am extremely surprised you after two years and the fact you never complained about our service at the time through our complaints procedure you have left it until now to post it. From recollection and reading the notes a lot of the issues with the sale were related to you not being able to find an onward purchase and we had to manage you purchaser expectations and try and keep them buying your property despite the lengthy delay. We seemed to communicate with your buyer well enough and hold your sale together where others may have lost it.
5/5
A great estate agency. Very professional but also very friendly. The staff are knowledgeable and very helpful for what, to most, is a stressful time. I recommend them 100%.
Nigel it has been a pleasure again helping you sell this time though. thanks for the lovely review and we wish you all the best from everyone at Trading Places Stretford.

I have moved into an apartment in Stretford with Trading Places and I have to say after a lot of let downs and failures on other agents parts to provide correct information or turn up on time, Trading Places have already acted appropriately. Big shout out to Louise who has helped me no end.
Thanks for the great review.
5/5
This is my second time buying through Trading Places, and I couldn't rate them higher. The level of communication, care & detail from Sara is second to non. I think anyone would be hard pressed to use an Estate Agency who know the area better!
Hi Chloe, thanks for your amazing review. We work really hard and keep up to date with everything going on in Stretford. I am glad we were able to assist you with your move again.
5/5
Great service from Trading places Stretford . Its a trying time to sell a house but Sara and the team really did everything possible to secure a buyer and eventually it happened. The communication is great with updates by text, email and phone. I really liked the updates and feedback form following viewings. Special mention goes to Matt for going above and beyond and keeping an eye on the property for me. Wouldn't hesitate to use them again if I was looking to sell a property in the area.
HI Emma, thanks so much for the amazing review. good luck in your new home from all of us here at Trading Places Stretford.

We have recently bought a property with the great help from Mark at Trading Places, he put us in touch with the correct people to carry out surveys and was available to communicate any issues we had. Can't thank him enough. In our house he is known as Mark The Mover of Mountains! If we ever come to sell, it's Mark we will be asking. Thanks for all the help. Jack and Lindsey. And we eventually did move and, Man of the Hour 'Mover of Mountains' Man like Mark did it again. I asked him to pull the trigger on that item and he didn't even hesitate. Chloe came in strong with vim and vigour to help push this over the line. Good times, strong work. I'll give you a shout next time I move. Nemaste
Thanks for the review Jack, to have returning clients means allot to us!

Whilst they appeared highly motivated in selling my property the truth is they wasnβt.
Thank you for your review. We were motivated to sell your property and we did actually receive an offer for you. We can see that your property is still listed for sale with the agent you moved too since June. We wish you all the luck in achieving a sale at a suitable price for you.
