I am writing a review for David Harvey…

I am writing a review for David Harvey in particular at Stirling Ackroyd, rather than Stirling Ackroyd. We were having some issues with this company that were not being resolved and it was becoming increasingly frustrating. David happened to pick up the phone when I called in again and even though the issue we were having was absolutely nothing to do with him, he was brilliant - not only did he take my issue seriously, he dealt with it immediately and also followed it up until the issue was actually solved. We had been having problems resolving the issue since April/May, I tried to speak with 4 other people, but made no progress and David resolved it within 1 day. Not only are we really grateful for the issue being solved, but the speed and manner with which it was done - he was polite, calm, efficient and just a really nice person to deal with - thankyou!

Extremely bad property management service

I am a tenant and their property management service is horrendous. We have had an emergency power cut due to the apartment fuse box overheating hich is an health and safety risk and legally the electricity had to be switched off. Having called them their response was we will liaise with the landlord as we cannot give any permission for the work. Such a response is expected for standard issues but how can this be a response for an emergency issue which the landlord is legally bound to take care of immediately.

Great customer service from Ryan at Sterling

I dealt with Ryan Johnson at Sterling Ackroyd in recent month and he offered stellar customer service. He kept in touch regularly with me over years, after I first contacted him a few years ago mentioning that I would sell my house at some point; this shows great business acumen. More recently he advised on current house prices in my areas and what a good price for my flat would be. He was always kind, approachable, prompt and helpful. Excellent service

Video footage of a BMW I3 driving recklessly nearly made an old chap crash the car the guy had to pull over and had to bring himself back as he was in that much shock. On top of that the guy had two kids at the back with no belts on no car seats furthermore they was play fighting at the back of the car. If there’s a email where I can send the footage I’m more then happy to if Sterling can deal with the situation accordingly the video would not need to circulate all over the media BMW I3 RX19 KYO

I don’t usually write reviews and…

I don’t usually write reviews and recommend businesses to go through for other people but , Stirling Ackroyd’s service , in particular by a man named Jad was beyond great. My first encounter was when I was in Brixton (Being from north, I’m sure you can guess I’m not familiar with Brixton). I was lost . I went into a few shops and they disregarded me for directions to get to the place I was traveling to. Then I went into Stirling Ackroyd where Jad had just finished a phone call. Well presented , he stood up, greeted me and showed me how to get where I wanted to end up. The second encounter was when I was trying to find a property in the area. He was very helpful on the phone and is keeping me updated for the properties that may be of interest. This constant update is helpful in keeping stress levels down as I know someone is trying to find the correct property for me that I can call a home. I would definitely recommend going to at least Stirling Ackroyd, if not Jad for services.

Terri Tristram, she's a class act. Solving our issues as they come up and always responsive - much appreciated. She should be made CEO of Stirling Ackroyd.

Abysmal Service

Stirling Ackroyd was absolutely wonderful when I signed my tenancy with them. However, now that I’ve ended my tenancy, I am having to fight to get my deposit back - like many others have reported in their previous reviews. There is no communication unless I chase. I have had to call and email - all of which are ignored or when I do get a response, it’s over 3 weeks later. I have only recently received the inventory report from check out (I left my flat over a month ago, so why am I only getting the information now), and it’s because I had to chase. Despite my emails including my address in the subject and message, I have been asked for the address several times, as if I hadn’t included them. Unfortunately, I will now have to file a dispute, and will be contacting the Ombudsman and my lawyer, to see what the next steps are, as it’s clear that while Stirling Ackroyd may have good reviews, they have no interest in helping me, have let me down and I cannot recommend them.

Bad management service and very slow

Usually I never write a review, but this agency is let me down many times with propriety management .I been with many agencies the worst I deal with it it’s Stirling Ackroyd.I rent a house with them around 3 years.And due this 3 years 4-5 times they changed property management and they didn’t notice the tenants, when I have problems in the property and try to contact the property manager they left the company. Also it’s very slow service if you have in issue in your property when you phone them they will ask you to write in email, and they respond to your email after one week .However any issues in your property it takes more Thant 4 weeks to sort if you are lucky.My advise from my experience if anyone have a chance with another agent please avoid Starting Ackroyd.

House Valuation

I received a call from Sandra Holmes at Stirling Ackroyd on Monday regarding my property, Sandra ran through several services that Stirling Ackroyd offered and asked me what plans we had if any with regards to our house. Unfortunately this time we were not in the market to sell but knowing that we were due to be renewing our mortgage sometime soon I asked if a valuation could be organised for us. This was carried out the very next day as I was very busy at work myself, and conveniently Sandra managed to book in a survey to fit in with my work schedule which was great. This was carried out by Matthew Parr, one of the sales directors, very professional and knowledgeable. I would like to thank Sandra for all her help and impeccable customer service, a true asset. A great team to deal with.

Not one for usually writing feedback, but the excellent service provided by Nick Mayhead at Stirling Ackroyd warranted one. Being a first-time buyer, I expected to feel both nervous and unsure however Nick was always available to answer questions, provide advice and go the extra mile when required. Highly recommend this agency and will certainly be using them again in the future. Thank you, Nick!

Great Property Management Service

Stirling Ackroyd have managed our portfolio of properties for a few years now and we are very happy with the service provided. Our property managers Lisa and Samantha have been extremely helpful. Very well organised and always very attentive. Assistance and response is very prompt and handled with care. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend to others.

I’ve just moved into a new property with Stirling Ackroyd and have Melissa as my new property manager. Since before my move in date she has been nothing but helpful! She checked in prior to the move to introduce herself and is so responsive if I have any questions. I am very pleased with Stirling Ackroyd and more specially, having Melissa as my property manager.

I was very happy with Stirling Ackroyd throughout my home buying process. Fraser Pollok was extremely accommodating with viewing times, and walking me through the initial negotiating process. While Nick Mayhead, was very responsive and communicative throughout the solicitor stages. I found the high level of service especially impressive, given how busy they have been as well as the extra restrictions during COVID.

Advise not to use - update

As an update to my previous review, we are now going through the end of tenancy process with SA. It is worse than I expected.. the checkout report took me several hours to check and fortunately I did as I found approximately 50 errors of issues that they mention, but are also clearly apparent in our check in report. When I informed them they ignored me and later proceeded to take a large amount out of my deposit for which most was for existing issues, or problems that were not our responsibility as per the tenancy agreement. Please please do not use them as it will take a great deal out of you.

Won't release deposit

This review is specifically for the poor service we have received from Katy Harris, the head of property management - home counties, head office.We had left our rental property over 6 weeks ago, the checkout report summary was that we had left the property in better and cleaner condition than when we moved in 18 month prior. We have always paid rent in full and was expecting a full refund of our deposit quickly.How wrong that turned out to be. The person in charge of this is Katy, she has been making endless excuses to delay this process. We are so fed up. We had been spending weeks over the emails and on the phone, trying backwards and forwards to contact the landlord and do the job for Katy, trying to get this sorted, but she would not return our phone calls, didn't bother to call our landlord to get the information she says she required, didn't understand why there is no deduction claimed from the landlord, delaying to release the deposit by making all kinds of excuses ...so you readers please stay away from this estate agent! When they want your deposit, they would act in timely fashion, but when it comes to release the deposit, if they have no excuses to deduct any money off, it just simply doesn't make sense to them, they will go to the end of the earth to find a reason, otherwise they don't release deposit at all.

Efficient & Friendly!

I spoke with Ashley Kopti this afternoon and her service was excellent. She quickly brought up the information for my enquiry and explained very well, allowing me to understand the reasoning for the info, along with the next steps. Afterwards I was asked more detailed questions to help narrow my search to find suitable properties for my budget. Overall, Ashley was extremely helpful and I was able have an efficient conversation with a person that is friendly and great at their job! :)

Brook Green office

Making a point here to say Jordan at the Brook Green branch since he came into the role at that office has been outstanding. Honest, clear communication, always responds quickly when he can and clearly does his best to ensure everything runs smoothly in a very difficult and competitive business. A credit to the firm.

I purchased a leasehold property through Stirling Acroyd. Oliver Archer was the selling agent who provided excellent service, great communication and pushed to get replies from third parties. The transaction was not an easy. Oli's assistance pushed to get the matter completed in the timeframe I required to meet tax needs. Thank you very much Oli- you were brilliant!PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism
