I recently purchased a property through Tom Ashwood Estate Agents and had the pleasure of working with Harvey. From start to finish, Harvey was professional, approachable, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire process. He took the time to understand my needs, kept me updated at every stage, and made what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and straightforward. His knowledge of the market and attention to detail gave me real confidence in my decision, and he was always available to answer questions promptly and clearly. Harvey went above and beyond to ensure everything was handled efficiently, and I genuinely felt he had my best interests at heart. I couldn’t be happier with the service I received and would highly recommend Harvey and the team at Tom Ashwood Estate Agents to anyone looking to buy a property.

As a first-time buyer, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Harvey at Tom Ashwood & Co. His service was excellent from start to finish. He was professional, friendly, and extremely helpful in resolving any issues that came up. Harvey kept me updated throughout the whole process, which was very reassuring. I would definitely recommend him to any first-time buyer or anyone looking for a reliable and supportive service. Thank you Harvey!

Really appreciate how smoothly i have managed to finalise everything. Will recommend all my family and friends to use Tom Ashwood & co to find their property. Thanks a lot Harvey & Tom

Tom immediately understood what was required to sell the house. Harvey was absolutely great with the whole process. The chain and the sale ended up being quite complicated, but they kept us updated through out and explained everything. Definitely better than other local estate agents we used (and tried to use) for an associated sale. Much more communicative and flexible than the bigger chains (who are prone to ignoring and fobbing off). Easy to talk to and worth the money, would highly recommend and use them again.

Harvey was an absolute pleasure to deal with from start to finish. He was so friendly and easy to talk to, which instantly put me at ease during what can be a really stressful process. He made everything about buying my home feel smooth and straightforward, always keeping me updated and making sure I understood each step. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I’ve already recommended him to several family members, and they’ve all had the same great things to say. Thanks again, Harvey, you really made the whole journey a positive one!

Bought our first house via Tom Ashwood & Co. Harvey - our estate agent handling our purchase was extremely professional and proactive. This purchase was longer than usual but expected as there were known complications along the chain. Harvey would give weekly updates which most of them time showed progress. Big shout out to Harvey as he made the process as smooth as it gets and gave us assurance. We also went through their recommended broker (who works for them) for the mortgage, which was the only let down. Mainly due to the initial price and additional fee every time there was a rate change, but also due to when rates would change I would be the one to reach out to the broker first to secure the better rate.

Danny Muir, from initial communication to the completion of the sale of our family home and beyond provided outstanding guidance and service. Danny was always very responsive and pro-active, but what we appreciated most was his unfailing candour and integrity throughout the process. I give Tom Ashwood in general and Danny in particular my highest recommendation, and would undoubtedly engage them again for any real estate transactions.

After the excellent service my parents received selling their family home, I went with Tom Ashwood Real Estate to sell my flat and I can't recommend them highly enough. Tom and Harvey were incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and were always there to answer any questions I had along the way. They took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for and provided excellent guidance throughout the entire process. A huge thanks to Tom and the team for making it happen - definitely recommend!

On our initial meeting, my Mother and I fired so many questions at Tom, as we knew little about the selling process. Tom was clear, concise and so knowledgeable; answering all without hesitation. He put me at ease and it was clear that he was the best choice to sell my late Father’s home. Harvey was also wonderful. He kept me in loop every step of the way, explaining things in terms I could understand, was friendly, kind and extremely informative. He made an incredibly hard task, feel almost effortless at times and I truly appreciated that. Highly recommend Tom Ashwood Real Estate!

We had the pleasure of working with Harvey when buying our first property. He provided us with amazing service, he was very honest and open with us. He was very quick to respond whenever we contacted him and put us at ease. We haven’t got anything negative to say about him. Thankfully, our journey went very smooth and we were able to complete our purchase within four months. We had an amazing experience with Harvey and would definitely recommend Harvey and Tom Ashwood.

I initially tried to sell my house through Purple Bricks, but after a couple of months, I had very little house viewings, I switched over to Tom Ashwood estate and I couldn't be happier with my choice. I had several viewings on the first and second week what consequencently led to a quick house sale. Tom and Harvey handling my sales shown proffesionalism throughout. Shout out to Harvey for keeping me in the loop throughout and chasing both side solicitors as and when needed.

I recently bought a flat marketed by Tom Ashwood, and what a journey it was! Throughout the process, Harvey was there to offer an advice, look for solutions even if it looked like you hit a dead end. He helped me to arrange a new mortgage, and he even found me a trustworthy solicitor. His role didn't stop there.... he was actively involved in my sale process that had nothing to do with Tom Ashwood! Without any doubt I can say that Harvey's assistance was crucial in the process of buying my new flat, and I can't thank him enough for everything he had done. If I ever decide to sell a property again, I know who I will reach out to!

After phoning around many of the high street estate agents and being thrown into turmoil of confusion by the differences in my property evaluation and advice given to me and my wife, we came across Tom Ashwood Real Estate, via another website that showed impressive reviews of the company. We found Tom to be a very honest, open, and transparent guy right from the start, and he always stuck to his words throughout. He provided us with a real-time and truthful valuation of our property; a valuation that in our opinion seemed to be overinflated by all the high street estate agents to make it sound attractive (to gain business!). Tom also dedicated his valuable family time to meet us personally (out of hours) to explain the status of the property market in jargon-free language using facts, figures, and graphs. Tom and his colleague Harvey were always immensely polite, and both worked relentlessly to achieve the sales figure very close target promised to us. Harvey kept us well-informed throughout the process. We highly recommend using Tom Ashwood Real Estates. Thank you enormously, Tom and Harvey!

Tom Ashwood is by far the best estate agency I have had the pleasure of dealing with and it is all thanks to one unique individual - Harvey Theakston. Harvey contacted me back in January 2024 to come and view a property but at the time, my husband and I were in the process of buying another property on the same street. Unfortunately, the other estate agent and seller messed us around due to tenants inhabiting the property and refusing to move so we made the decision to let this property go. It was at this time that Harvey stepped in, went out of his way to advise me about the situation due to his extensive knowledge with tenants and we decided to view the other property he initially contacted me about advertised with Tom Ashwood. When we viewed this property back in early February 2024, we absolutely fell in love with it, had our offer accepted after Harvey gave us a wonderful tour of the house and I am happy to say, we exchanged contracts yesterday! I have to say that the last 5 months of conveyancing would not have been endurable if it hadn’t been for Harvey’s excellent service. An estate agent’s job is usually to serve the client that they’re selling the house for, but Harvey didn’t just do that- he was also on my side, always a phone call and a WhatsApp message away, even during late hours which makes Tom Ashwood so unique- they’re always available to help at any given time. If it hadn’t been for Harvey going that extra mile for us, we wouldn’t have secured our absolute dream home today. Harvey is also a brilliant mediator; we built such a wonderful rapport with our sellers and we are so privileged to have landed ourselves with such kind and humble vendors. We cannot thank Harvey enough for his genuine kindness and help throughout the entire process. From the get go, we could tell that he is extremely passionate about what he does and that he goes above and beyond to ensure all parties are happy and working in harmony. I can’t thank Tom Ashwood estate agents for coming into our lives at a time when we needed some hope of finding our dream home. And it is all thanks to Harvey Theakston, the true beacon of this agency that makes it the outstanding agency that it is! We wish you all the best with your endeavours and we would like all sellers and buyers to know, that you’ll always be in the safe hands of Tom Ashwood if you were ever to cross paths with them.

I have worked with a few Estate Agents now and found Tom Ashwood to be the most professional, helpful and informative. Tom, even though is the owner of the company, gives his personal attention and time making you feel like a valued customer. He is straightforward, frank, and will tell you as it is, rather than play strategy games. Harvey was also very informative, courteous and professional during our house viewings. If you're looking for a property on the Leftley Estate, Tom Ashwood would be the first choice, highly recommended.

I highly recommend Tom Ashwood agency. They are quite professional in their work and most important thing I liked about them was compared to other big brands in the market being an independent agency you get personal attention.

I highly recommend Tom Ashwood & Co as estate agents. After experiencing two failed sales with another high street agent, Tom, Harvey and the team managed to sell my property within just a week and secured the price I wanted. They have been honest, transparent, and kept me in continuous communication throughout the entire process, both with me and with all other parties involved. They took a huge amount of stress off my shoulders and handled everything that needed to be done. If anyone is looking to buy or sell a property, I would 100% recommend Tom Ashwood & Co without hesitation. They are genuinely different from many other agents out there.

Had an unexpectedly good experience with an estate agent for once, so much so, I am leaving a 5* review for the gent I met recently at a valuation of my house. Dean O’Dell of Tom Ashwood was one of 5 agents I had come round to value. The other 4 were EXACTLY what I expected, brash, pushy, know it alls. And didn’t ask me once what I wanted or thought, let alone what my plans were. Dean on the other hand immediately asked me what I wanted, and how he could help realise my plans for moving home. He took an interest in me, my wife and our daughter as well as our home. Although it’s still early days for us, Dean will be the only agent we call back when the time comes to sell. I highly recommend Dean for his professionalism, personality and knowledge. Thanks Dean!

I had an exceptional experience working with Tom Ashwood estate agent during the sale and purchase of my house. Humzah was my go to person. I can’t thank him enough, his professionalism, and dedication made the entire process smooth and stress-free. From the initial consultation with Paul to the final closing, Tom Ashwood provided expert guidance and support every step of the way. Their knowledge of the market ensured that my property was priced competitively, attracting numerous potential buyers. Additionally, their negotiation skills helped secure a favorable deal for both the sale of my old house and the purchase of my new one. I highly recommend Tom Ashwood estate agent to anyone looking to buy or sell a property.
