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

Persistance 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.

One 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.

Terrible experience, avoid is possible…

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.

I have always received an excellent service while working with Stirling Ackroyd. I have had tenants on and off for years even before the rebranding. Rino has been my main point of contact for a over a year and has been so professional, polite and more importantly is always quick to respond to requests whether for market rental reviews or just information. I would absolutely recommend Stirling Ackroyd to my friends because of quality service received.

Absolutely brilliant!

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!

Stirling Ackroyd, Tania Pereira & Olivia Papps

Had 0 problems with Stirling Ackroyd from the beginning to the end of our tenancy. Signing and agreeing the tenancy was very swift. Thanks, Olivia for your efforts and excellent service. Our property manager Tania Pereira was outstanding at always being available and solving any issues that arose with the flat during the tenancy. Thanks for all the support and care Tania. Overall, highly recommend this agency. We had the best experience with them!

Professional and courteous from the start

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 !

Great job Stirling Ackroyd

Recently re-engaged Stirling Ackroyd after having used another agent to manage my property for a number of years.Achieved a significant increase in rental return. Turned the property over within 2 weeks, including a full refurbish .. painted through-out, floors polished, smoke detectors, globes, cleaned top to bottom … Particular thanks to Sam Humphreys & Victoria Aderibigbe for their hard work - very responsive, great communications - as a remote landlord, couldnt ask for more.

Incredibly generous and insightful

Jad was one of the most honest and helpful Estate Agents I’ve ever come across. He’s incredibly generous and transparent, and every step of the way he pays attention to detail in catering to your needs and requirements. He listens and makes sure all things are being heard and taken care of. It’s rare to see someone with so much dedication, clarity and professionalism, so I highly recommend.

Harris the leasing consultant we worked with was super prompt, helpful, honest and actually followed up (which is so rare). We had a great experience with this branch and Harris when looking for a lease in the area. Highly recommend them.

AVOID AVOID AVOID!!!!! Please read in full!!!!!

Since signing our tenancy agreement we have had NIGHTMARES with this scam company. Now been over 2 weeks and still no news when we will have our deposit back. Apparently Katy Harris has been trying to call the landlord but it’s table tennis, they keep missing eachother. In all my years at customer service and using a telephone I have never known a company incapable of contacting a landlord for feedback regarding releasing a deposit. Currently I’m sat on hold only for her colleague Amy to say she’s on a lengthy call so is unsure when she can put her through or even if I can get through. After waiting on hold for nearly 10 minutes Katy has managed to get a response from the landlord stating she will have answers at 4:30pm.. very close to the end of the day funny enough. She’s also requested that I do not chase her until after 5pm??? What a strange thing to request especially seeing as that’s when they will close for bank holiday. I’m sick to death of the pathetic excuse of an estate agency. Nothing but liars who get pleasure at messing people around, fobbing you off and failing to do their jobs time and time again.Stirling Ackroyd also ensured I would not need to conduct a professional clean as the property was so disgusting when we initially moved in. Confirmed by Becky - the lettings director and also Arran who was a Property Manager, even after having written confirmation of this agreement and providing this. Katy Harris still has to speak to the landlord to see whether she would charge us? I’m pretty sure if the landlord wants to go down this route even though it’s illegal considering we have a written agreement from 2 Stirling Ackroyd employees. They still said she can charge us? AVOID THIS COMPANY!!!!!! They will cause you nothing but stress and hold onto your money just simply because they are nothing but terrible people.AVOID AVOID AVOIDWon’t hold my breath on a resolution today or in the next week in fact.
