TrustpilotIF BUYING A HOUSE? AVOID IF RENTING? AVOID IF NEEDING THE TOILET! GO THERE!
AVOID! If you value your timeAVOID!! If your value your dignityAVOID!!! If you value your moneyI went to see a flat down in Northfleet and the agent refused to take an official offer to the vendor as I didn't have an AIP. Fair Enough.Then I get spammed with voice mails and texts demanding to call them back. I called them back and I explained; There is no point me applying for an AIP if you haven't accepted my offer. As far as I know I can turn up to your premises with an AIP as requested for the offer amount and you can turn around and say SORRY vendor found a better offer from a different buyer. WASTE OF AIP.Anyhow, they finally gave in and said that they accepted my offer and to take out the AIP.I then spoke to my mortgage adviser and got the AIP and as I was driving to work I received a text message saying "vendor has decided to take another buyers offer".What kind of scum do you have to be to waste someone's time effort and money!?TRASHY company, I will never do business with them again and you shouldn't either!

GoogleSpoke to a rep last Wednesday (29th Dec), that told me she would call me today Tuesday (4th Jan) to set up a viewing of a rental property I was interested in.
2pm rolled around and I had received no call, so I called to speak to someone. Was told I would be updated at a later date on the circumstances of the rental property as they had to hear back from the landlord on a potential offer.
The conversation I had with the rep on Wednesday might as well have not taken place, with the way the situation was handled.
I was happy to put the deposit in last week, but being told they would set up an appointment with me at a later date to get everything sorted gave me a false peace of mind to wait.
Don’t offer appointments if you won’t follow through with getting back to someone.
If I hadn’t called to check what was going on I would have never received a phone call back. Extremely unprofessional.NegativeResponsiveness, Professionalism

GoogleCan’t recommend enough! They went above and beyond when it came to us buying a property in Sydenham. They even helped in unconventional ways & when they were off the clock. Agents like these are necessary to have in your corner when things get desperate (as it often does!)

TrustpilotGRAVESEND branch
GRAVESEND branch I’ve just sold flat in Northfleet and wanted to say I was happy with the service I received. I had a valuation done by both Ashlee and Lee Mellet as I had initially intended to sell earlier than I did. I found them both to be impressive and knowledgeable, and they were the clear winners out of the other agents I had round (well, joint first, but the other agent sent one person both times, so I knew that Mann had two people I trusted!). More importantly, I received an offer £2,000 more than my top range that I thought I might achieve. And the buyer had offered £4,000 less than this, but Ashlee was able to get the offer increased.Ryan who conducted my viewings was better than I had expected, being so young. Probably wrong to think that way I know. They were competitively priced for the service I received and I’m pleased I chose them. I’m glad I didn’t go with an online agent as I would likely have done the viewings myself and agreed a much lower price than Mann got for me. Some agents prices are ridiculously high, but I do feel you get what you pay for.I can’t say there aren’t better agents out there as I don’t know, but I would definitely recommend Mann

TrustpilotLiar agents!!
My personal experience with them and I still with them its shameful!!!I got 2 issue with them!! 1th is the blocked pipes in our bathroom and the water stays in the bath and dosen t drain. We have contacted them to let they know and the send after 1 month the plumber. Know is already 3 month and no one came to fix it!!! When the plumber came said the pips needed to be changed, are to old!!!The whole situation is very frustrating. And on the top of that I ve been trying to contact the maintenance office manager and been getting ignored!!! That is unbelievable, I can not even fix it with my plumber for the contract!! The 2th was the washing machine very old never in my life I have seen something like that!!! Anyway after a 7 month the washing machine died!! WE asked to changed with the new one and always excuse and take time and after 1 month, without resolve this issue I bought the new washing machine by may self without get and money back!!! Its shame!!!

GoogleEstate agents don't usually get praise but I cannot praise and thank the team at Mann enough, especially Daniel who rented our house within 1 week of our initial appointment (when another agent had it on the market for 2 months) . Without his endless diplomacy and patience as my partner will now admit he had not been the easiest client as we had been disillusioned. I would highly recommend working with the team, popping into their office and having a proper chat about what you want to achieve. They are professional and most of all realistic about what you can acheive no Pipe Dreams with Mann.Reputable Team for sure!!

The service from Park gate Mann Co was very poor. The member of staff who valued our property set our expectations falsely. She advised we would only be held in our contract with them for 2 months despite not holding to this. We were also promised that she would do other things which never materialised. As soon as they had our business they had very little contact with us after this! Dishonest company to deal with.

GoogleI let my flat through Mann Countrywide, and could not be happier with the service provided. In particular, Daniel Sarpong was absolutely fantastic. As anxious landlords, he went out of his way to make the process as smooth as possible for us, answering all our emails and calls quickly providing us with reassurance as well as information all along the way. Thanks also to Doug and the rest of the team for their help. Definitely a "local" service, not like you would expect get from the bigger chains, and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for an agent in the Sydenham area. Thanks Mann!

GoogleI'm just about to move into my second let arranged through Mann Sydenham and they have made the transition seamless. The staff are great, and it's lovely to see familiar faces still at the branch a year later. I think that says something about them as a team. Daniel (the manager) was great at looking out for suitable properties for us, and Doug is a warm, friendly Lettings negotiator who really looked after us. Hazel completed all the paperwork side of things very efficiently. What else can I say? Fab!

TrustpilotAvoid. Sharks.
Fine during tenancy, not specifically great, but not head-against-wall territory like some agents of the past. The issues, however, came up around release of the deposit. On the day we moved our landlord instructed full release of the deposit following her own inspection. Mann kicked around the email between three or four people for 6 weeks with zero action. I must have called 20+ times and went through the same spiel with different members of staff. Eventually our landlord got involved, shocked Mann had flat out refused to repay nearly £2000. They fairly quickly then expedited things, and it took (only) another ten days to recover the money.I take two things from this:1. Mann prioritises landlords over tenants. As renters you’re considered bottom feeders by this company.2. In this new era of high interest on savings, it’s their policy to sit on your money as long as possible in their bank account, harvesting interest off the combined value of thousands of tenants, which equals millions of pounds. Clever and very, very sneaky.

Terrible advert got the description wrong and did not change it and even argued about the lay out of my own home! Avoid them like a disease! two months of hell with them. So Mann.. Your’e Fired!!

TrustpilotEstate Agent to avoid
Avoid North End branch of this outfit if they refer you to use their Solicitor based 100 miles away, Convey Law Ltd who will pay them an introduction fee, they are useless and will probably leave my tenant who is trying to buy a property homeless. Because this firm of referred solicitor by Mann and Co who have now washed their hands of the situation . It will know doubt leave my tenant will a larger bill.

GoogleThe team at Mann Estate and Letting have been by far the most impressive, thorough and friendly agents I have ever dealt with, as a tenant in London for nearly 17 years in various locations.
Not only did they help me to
find ideal property but also identify an area that met my criteria.
Since then they have consistently gone above and beyond the normal call of duty, always providing a fast and excellent service when supplying handymen, building repairs etc and helping me liaise with my landlord.
I was mostly dealing with Dominika who is always extremely friendly and understanding, and I can't speak highly enough of the services of entire team.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Please do not even consider using Mann Countrywide for your property. Mine was completely trashed by a tenant with Mann Countrywide supposedly acting as my managing agents. Even worse, I found that the guarantor, accepted by Mann was an Irish citizen, so I can’t sue for repairs. They are without doubt the most ineffective, uncaring and unprofessional company I’ve ever had the misfortune to work with. Stay clear!

WE LEFT A DEPOSIT WITH THE AGENCY AND WERE TOLD THAT WE WOULD BE RETURNED OUR DEPOSIT IF THE LANDLORD PULLED OUT OF THE AGREEMENT. WITH A SURPLUS OF EVIDENCE SUPPLIED CONSISTING OF PROOF OF CCJ DISACOSIATION AND PROOF OF AFFORDABILITY.
