Wards reviews

Lucy Stocker at Wards was brilliant. We were first time buyers so our anxiety was high as we’d never bought a house before. She was really helpful, friendly and explained to us every step of the way different processes etc. She made the impossible happen as we were away and couldn’t view the property immediately. She went out of her way to make it happen for us. We did have a worry about the financial qualification element of Wards process as we already had a mortgage broker in place but Lucy was great in explaining everything to us. So if you are worried about this element please don’t be. She was integral to the sellers saying yes to us as she knew we’d be a good fit for them (we have subsequently become friends with the sellers. So she was right!). Can’t recommend Wards and Lucy enough.

We were on the market with another (cheaper)local estate agent before considering moving to Wards. We were reluctant to go to Wards with the higher fee, however after being on the market for a couple of weeks and having next to no interest we spoke to Lucy At Wards and decided to bite the bullet. We thought it didn’t really matter what agent you listed with, as long as you showed up on rightmove but Lucy proved this is far from the case. Lucy was really friendly, informative and ultimately ‘on it’ with the knowledge of how to successfully sell our home. She sold us the dream with examples of previous properties she had sold for above the asking price and now ours can be added to that portfolio! She was proactive in organising open days and marketing our home to potential buyers and this in turn meant we got more than asking price for our home. Really recommend Lucy, Ellie, Ollie and the team at Wards, all super friendly, helpful and on it with getting the right price for your home. Thankyou so much

We had four comparable quotes from different estate agents but Wards and, in particular, Lucy Stocker decided it for us. Lucy was upfront and honest about everything and told us things we didn’t even realise we needed to know. What we loved about her was that she is hungry to work hard and to sell our home. And she was true to her word - we’ve currently sold STC and her guidance has been invaluable. She also ensured we had the best deal and secured our asking price whereas other agencies wanted to go lower and lure buyers to pay more, which wasn’t our ethos. By following Lucy’s guide we’ve stayed true to our values as to how estate agency should work and have also found buyers that are perfect for our home. The whole team have been fantastic and Lucy has been available whenever we needed her. We would 100% recommend Lucy and Wards.

I would like to say that Maria Meddings senior sales progressor for wards estate agents gave 110 percent of her effort by helping me with my house sale. Maria is a very caring hard working person. Thank you.

I cannot recommend Lucy enough! From the moment I enlisted her help, she went above and beyond to ensure a seamless experience, even while I was away. Lucy not only put my mind at ease but also took the initiative to organise multiple contractors for me, making the entire process stress-free. Her dedication was evident when she sold my home in less than two weeks, before it even officially hit the market! She found multiple buyers, demonstrating her exceptional skills and proactive approach. Throughout, Lucy was polite, respectful, and always brought a great sense of humour to the table, which made working with her an absolute pleasure. She expertly guided me through the entire process, keeping me informed at every step. Lucy’s professionalism, warmth, and commitment to her clients set her apart, and I couldn’t be more grateful for her help. If you’re looking for an estate agent who delivers outstanding results while making the process easy and enjoyable, Lucy is the one to choose!

I have recently been looking buy in the area and got in contact with wards regarding a couple of properties. The first person I spoke to was Ellie, from day 1 Ellie has been great, everyone I have spoken to has been so lovely but having someone a similar age to talk to and attend viewings has made it a lot easier from my other experiences I can compare. As an individual I found Ellie so easy to talk to and very communicative by keeping in touch and having regular contact.

I went in to register my interest in properties and be put on a mailing list. I spoke to Lewis who made time to listen to what I was looking for and clarify my requirements. He was polite, professional and genuine. He has been proactive with looking for houses that are actually right for me and not just for sale. I've spoken to other staff there, and this attention to detail and friendliness is reflected with them all. Thank you.

Just wanted to say that Wards are amazing estate agents. Everyone is so helpful and polite. We sadly are not in a position to upgrade our property just now but next year we will not hesitate to use Wards. Lewis offten was especially helpful. He let us know when a property came up that would of suited our needs. He really put himself out to making sure we were made to feel important. It is the people that work for a company like Lewis that is the reason why we would highly recommend Wards. Thank you Lewis for all you have done for us. Next year we have booked an updated valuation on our current property and look forward to talking to Lewis again

Lucy has been amazing from start to finish. From the moment she came to view and value the house, her attention to detail, honest advice and being available whenever needed, including on her days off has been such a relief during what could otherwise be a stressful experience. You hear horror stories about Estate Agents but Lucy was great with our purchaser, communicated things really clearly and is really reliable. She answered any queries we had quickly and resolved any issues with speed. Couldn’t recommend her enough.

Recently purchased a flat through wards. Ellie was our main agent and was great. She was always helpful, friendly and quick to answer any queries we had. Olly was also involved and likewise, he was always happy to help and got a couple of issues resolved quickly. Would use Wards again.

Thank you Wards for helping us to sell our family home . Not only did we have one person pull out of buying but as soon as that happened Wards were on the case, putting the house straight back on the market with viewings straight away which led to two potential buyers , one ofwhich actually bought the house. Like to give a huge round of thanks to their Senior Sales Progressor Maria Meddings who was there for everything we had a question or a query for and helped us through the minefield of selling a house . Once again thank you . Phil Donnachie

After a difficult sale no fault on Wards when a buyer to our property pulled out at the last minute. We went on to sell that property and buy a retirement flat with the proceeds. Oliver was great at keeping us informed with the progress and answering our constant enquiries during the transactions.

My whole experience with wards was the best I've had with any estate agents, one particular person made the whole process stress free and very smooth, his knowledge on the ins and outs of the property was amazing and no stone was left unturned. Every minor detail about the property, Lewis knew exactly what was what! Thank you Lewis for your incredible support and patience. 5*

We decided to sell for the for the first time a few weeks ago and wasn’t sure how to go about it. Everything seemed confusing and it was difficult to get estate agents to pay attention. We signed with Wards and quickly felt at ease and totally supported, Greg was on hand whenever we needed him and made the whole process comfortable and took all of our needs into consideration. We had our property on the market quickly and had multiple offers within a week. We can’t fault the service we have had and would highly recommend them to anyone wishing to sell a property.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism
