GoogleDon't bother doing business with Stirling Ackroyd!
They would advertise a place at a certain price, take 20 offers on it and then entertain every person who placed an offer to bid against others which will ultimately raise the asking price of the propriety by 20%. They are doing nothing but damaging what is already a difficult real estate market.
Communication is extremely poor, they won't keep you in the loop nor inform if your offer was successful or not.
To be frank I doubt they are even presenting all the offers to the landlord, they would most likely show off by putting forward only offers way above the asking price.
I've been working with other agencies who have made it very clear they would be unable to do any viewings or take offers once a propriety is under offer but Stirling Ackroyd works like no one else on the market and I mean it in the worst possible way.
If you are a landlord or a tenant looking for your next successful rental please take your business anywhere else but Stirling Ackroyd.

TrustpilotAbove and beyond…
When I say Joanne went above and beyond to close the deal, I can’t stress that enough. I agreed to purchase a property in March 2022, but the sale didn’t go through until January 2023. Despite the deal potentially falling through and me preparing to pull out at various stages. Joanne reassured me to persevere, kept me informed with the latest updates and was very professional throughout. The deal wouldn’t have gone through without her guidance. Can’t thank Joanne enough.

TrustpilotA Quality Company
I recently had a survey undertaken on a flat I am looking to purchase. It has been a refreshing experience dealing with Stirling Ackroyd, especially when receiving their prompt response to any concerns which seems to be a rare thing these days. I would like to thank Suzanne, Team Administrator and Mike the Surveyor for a most thorough and prompt Survey and his continued help and advice. Excellent Service.LR

TrustpilotAndrew Aldworth - A credit to Stirling Ackroyd
Andrew Aldworth contacted me out of the blue a few weeks ago. Normally cold callers get short shrift, however Andrew was not pushy, simply warm and eloquent. He sparked my interest in how the Landlord Services on offer differed from those I currently receive and how the pricing structure works. I mentioned my properties were fully occupied at that time but one due for renewal April 2023. Andrew remembered this and called today to see if I wanted to explore options. I am very impressed. Andrew not only made a note to call but also the detail of our last discussion and my situation. It is very rare to encounter such professionalism, it gives me every confidence that I will be happy to do business with Stirling Ackroyd in future. Like many I am quick to take action on a complaint, but not often enough do I formally give praise, on this occasion it is richly deserved - hence this review.

TrustpilotFlat letting. Amazing service
I used Stirling Ackroyd to lease my grandfathers flat since he has been moved permanently to a care home. They are not a traditional local agent so I was pleasantly surprised when they dealt with any issues quickly and effectively. I dealt with Alex to get this initially booked in who was charming and very helpful for the whole process. I then mainly dealt with Matt from lettings who was absolutely brilliant. He found me a suitable tenant in record time, and was pleasant and easy to talk with - he answered my questions at any time of the day and was incredibly helpful when I was stuck on how to do something. Ant at the byfleet office was also great as he facilitated the viewing, which went so well they decided to go head with the flat. Would highly recommend.

I had a very disappointing experience with this company. I understand that humans can make mistakes, however when i approached them with my complaint they dismissed it without even acknowledge any points i had raised, as if they didn't care. It was extremely upsetting. They have passed me over to the CEDR and i will be taking the complaint to them. I hope something positive can come out of this rather negative experience.

Hugely impressed with the Stirling Ackroyd team. We got a call minutes from SA (Alex) from making a request via Zoopla which was mighty impressive. We were keen on lettings and sale advice and both Chantelle and Jordan were very informative and patient on advising us on both fronts. They both clearly are very knowledgeable in their respective areas. They made us feel very valued and were more than happy to answer the numerous questions we had during their visit at the property. After the valuation they both followed with an email with their respective valuations and i have found them both very communicative (but not pushy) since. To add icing on this fabulous service, Alex followed with a call to ensure we received a good service from the SA team. Highly recommended Estate Agents

TrustpilotPersistance and professionalism
I have received about four phone calls from Joel Gooden over the last month or so. Each phone call led me closer to making the decision to appoint Stirling Ackroyd to sell my property. I was inundated with similar calls from similar agencies but he seemed very knowledgeable about the housing market and more importantly, for me, he listened. We have now signed the contracts to begin the sale and we are very hopeful. If he hadn't made the first phone call to me and persisted (politely) we would probably be signing with someone else. Thank you Joel for your advise, persistence and professionalism.

She is also interested in understanding my needs or concerns, and comes across as wanting to help me achieve what I am aiming for.

TrustpilotOne of the worst agency experience…
One of the worst agency experience ever! do not trust or get involved with these guys in the Staines office, they play with your time and don’t treat you with respect, ignore your calls, and never call back, that when you have placed an offer.We were told we don’t have an answer as the owner is not replying, we through something is fishy, my wife called back from another number after two days and she was told that we have just accepted the holding deposit on this apartment. Shame on such agents! Fully story below:We viewed a couple of apartments with Sterling on Tuesday evening at 6 PM. Next morning we emailed them our offer at 9:00 AM. Kept following up with them for half a day to get an answer we have not seen the offer as we have been very busy. After they saw the offer, they said they will talk to the owners and come back to us. They knew that we wanted to close this quickly and were evaluating this vs. another property which was our second preference.Whole of that day and even the next day, the associates kept ignoring our calls. I got a message back saying he would call me back soon, but that soon never happened as well.We were just trying to revise our offer but they never wanted to talk. We were told the owner is overseas and is not replying. The next day when we were told that the owner is not replying, we felt something is fishy and my wife decided to call them to ask about this property, she was told they have accepted the holding deposit on this flat.Clearly we were treated super badly. we would never recommend this office to anyone else. You have 2-3 other agencies just down the road, you are better off going there. At-least we can assure you would be treated with respect and you wont feel ignored.

Dear Raunak, thank you for taking the time to post a review. I am sorry to hear that your offer to secure a Tenancy was not successful. I understand that you particularly liked the property and that this would have been a disappointment for you. Currently properties are only available for a short period and due to a competitive market are being secured at the advertised rent. We wish you the very best with your property search - Amber

Terrible experience with Stirling Ackroyd, particularly due to the poor management by our assigned agent, Dottie Wilson. Communication was consistently lacking, we had to chase her with multiple emails just to get basic responses, and even then, the replies were often vague or unhelpful. Throughout our tenancy, she offered little to no support, and never provided real solutions to the issues we raised. It always felt like she was acting entirely in the landlord’s interest, with no consideration for us as tenants. A very frustrating and disappointing experience, I strongly recommend avoiding this agency if possible.

We dealt with the Egham office where Mark. Ben and the team were brilliant. Quite frankly there was no comparison when selecting the estate agent we wanted to use compared to others in the area. Mark & Ben were very professional and were always on hand to answer questions giving us so much support through the whole procedure. From the valuation, viewings, paperwork through to completion it was a pleasure to deal with them. Five stars plus plus from me!

After losing our mum, we were left with the incredibly difficult task of having to sell our family home. Joel Gooden from Head Office was our first point of contact and made us feel that we were being listened to and understood. Joel brought a gentle sense of humour, but with great warmth and sensitivity for our situation with a high level of professionalism, knowledge and confidence for the whole process ahead . We couldn’t have asked for better communication and support throughout and have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Joel and the team at Stirling Ackroyd.

Stirling Ackroyd in Mitcham is the number 1 estate agents in the area. Previously had many dealings with goodfellows but thought I would give stirling ackroyd a go after Charles came round to value my property and I was so impressed with his manner and his knowledge of the market. I then stepped into office a week later and met Robbie who further explained what Stirling ackroyd can offer and also his market knowledge showed me that Charles and Robbie were the guys who should be selling my property. 2 weeks down the line I put my property online with them and they quickly sold it as promised. Their service and care was amazing !…will 1000% be recommending to friends and family. I also have other properties that I will selling through this branch. Thanks Robbie and Charles, you both made my experience so so much better !
