I had an excellent service from Cray and Norton Estate agent. From viewing to finally signing the tenancy agreement, everything was smooth and stress free. Best experience I have ever had from an estate agent. I do recommend them as they are very professional. Thank you to the whole team for making my move easy and stress free.

GoogleWe would like to say big "THANK YOU!" to the Cray & Norton team, in particular β¨Darren and Marcelβ¨, for their help and guidance during the sale process of our home.
The customer service that we received back in 2014 (when the house was purchased) was at the same HIGH level when it was sold in 2023:
- friendly attitude,
- frequent and clear communication,
- knowledgeable about their industry,
- proactive and responsive.
We would highly recommend Cray & Norton to anyone, who wishes to sell / buy a property.

GoogleI instructed Cray and Norton to market my property in Queen St. Croydon in January 2022. As a client, I provided them with a particularly challenging set of circumstances which caused several buyers to withdraw! However, the personnel at Cray and Norton were never detered and were always able to provide new buyers for me to assess. I was always amazed on how quickly this was done.
I should add that at one point I had to withdraw the house from the market because my personal circumstances did not facilitate a sale (hence the gap from initial instruction to final sale).
Cray and Norton are the ultimate professionals in the real estate business. I highly recommend them should you wish sell a property (as in my case) and I'm sure that buyers are of the same opinion.

GoogleRecently purchased our home through Cray and Norton and are really pleased with the service and process, from start to finish.
Clear communication with known team members, questions answered quickly, fair price on the house & accommodated viewings quickly, was very impressed and happy. Also valued that they are a local, family-run business with a personal touch throughout the process.
Thank you C&N, we are very happy in our new home & the process was very smooth even with a very long chain!

GoogleSold a house with Marcel as our agent. From the start, when he provided the best valuation to ensure a sale at a good price, through to completion Marcel was always honest and available, providing help and advice when needed. This is the second time we've used Cray & Norton and I'm sure we'll use them again in the future.

Whilst my family and I are still undecided, the team at Cray and Norton were extremely helpful and informative of the whole process.

GoogleWorst experience,Worst Letting agency in London . After vacating their home they took all your deposit amount as a maintenance charge . Donβt waste your money to these worst place. They took our Β£2015 pound(My full deposit amount)for maintenance charge .We stayed their house only 50 days .For that 50 days they took 2015 pounds . Go with good agency people . I donβt like to give even single star for this agency.

On the run from the Police and hiding behind a keyboard in India πYou really couldnβt write a more comical review!
FACTS
1. You sublet the property we rented to you.
2. You robbed tenants of deposit monies and Croydon council reported you to us and the Police
3. You damaged the Landlords Property and they have made a claim against your deposit
4. Your deposit is still being held in the DPS scheme
5. You have run back to India to hide from the UK police
6. Our Landlords love us for how we dealt with the entire situation and has entrusted there property with us again

GoogleNever show up to viewings. Claim they have a 10 minute waiting policy (More like 30 seconds) then ask you to wait 10 minutes as one of their agents "might show up". BUT if they don't then don't worry you can always rebook! Not. No wonder Manning Gardens is still on the market.
