GoogleMy wife and I recently both sold and purchased a house via the Newtown branch on McCartneys. The service we received from all of the staff we came into contact with was flawless. They were extremely professional, knowledgeable and attentive. Specifically, Ebony Shuker and Helen Barrie were outstanding. We are extremely grateful for the team at this branch. We would not hesitate to recommend the services they provide.

GoogleDebbie took us for a viewing around my mums house that is about to go through this week. Debbie was very professional, polite and friendly. Debbie made some very helpful suggestions that my mum took on board. Debbie was very empathetic towards the needs of the house my mum needed. I would recommend Debbie to anyone who requires a viewing of a property.

GoogleJust made a phone call to Rachel in the Newtown office, Not the friendliest person to speak with, quite objective in the call and didn't really put my mind at rest with concerns over a new tenancy contract or give any valid advice part from ... take it up with your landlord! Yet the contract is with Maccartneys.

GoogleThere is absolutely nothing positive to say about this company. From the moment we placed the property for sale, we received nothing in terms of pro-active follow-up, communication, etc. We had to request a For Sale board be erected; chase up feedback following a viewing; and confirmation of an offer that was made to ourselves and to an answer phone at McCartney's office - the day before! We also had to chase clarification of the financial robustness of the chain. which was was left unchecked resulting in lengthy delays in final completion. Not to mention numerous phone calls and emails that were unanswered. Completion was only achieved thanks to our solicitor, and it is worth noting that no notification of completion was received from McCartneys. Steer well clear!!!NegativeResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

GoogleAbsolutely disgraceful company. Lie to tenants and try and con disabled people for landlords. Money making scammers who leave people homeless and out of pocket no matter how good a tenant you may be. Do not follow complaints procedures and think they have the right to complain about negative reviews based off factual experience. Pretty much tried to blackmail us into removing a previous review as the manager stated they would not deal with our complaints because of it. Previous review was removed so they would and still never dealt with it. Had to take them to the obundsman service. Completely unprofessional letting agents and the staff are horrible,lying con artists. Avoid like the plague! They left our family homeless and allowed the landlord to breach the tenancy over and over and so did they. They waited until we landscaped our garden and then repossessed the property after less than 13 months despite continuously telling us it was a long term let, then said the landlord was selling the house which is neither for sale or to re let after 2 months. The house is still sat empty and we are left fighting to get our deposit back despite being model tenants. No repairs were ever completed and we were left in a house with black mold and windows that poured in when it rained for the duration of the tenancy. Do not trust them and do not trust the manager either. She is the one who basically blackmailed us and made us believe she would deal with the problem when all she really wanted was to cover their tracks and hope we would just give up the fight for our deposit back. All our rent was up to date, we followed the tenancy to the letter and even improved the property and it's value at our own expense just to be treated this way. They made our lives hell. They should not be allowed to be a letting agent!(UPDATE) They have now emailed my partner with an offer of financial compensation but not given a figure and I am still waiting on the deposit protection scheme to get back with a conclusion of if i get my deposit which is being wrongly claimed by the landlord because of the instructions given to use by the managing estate agent. We will have to see how this pans out as we should not be left out of pocket at all when we were the ones who were conned and lied to from the start of the tenancy . UPDATE! just as we thought, they had no intention as from the start of sticking to their word and have now backed out of their false offer and have instead accused me of (SLANDEROUS) comments which are in no way based off anything but factual experience and emails from Anita the person who sent the email to my partner stating that the complaints procedure would not be followed if the previous review remained. We have the email that states what Anita said and not just us, but anyone who receives this type of treatment from a company claiming to be professional and follow the rules has every right to post a factual and truthful review. All that has been achieved by them is proving what they are like and if they had acted in a professional manner and resolved the situation as Anita stated they would then of course this review would have been different or even removed. I will not accept being bullied or blackmailed in to not telling the true details of what disgusting, unprofessional behaviour we have experienced. We will now definitely be passing all evidence to the obundsman and may even take further steps to highlight this appaling treatment. How dare they try and make out that it is us that have acted in the wrong manner!

GoogleI have used McCartneys as a letting agent for an year. 12 months of stress. First the payments were wrong, then months to fix a problem with the property. Then no contact when there was an issue with the property. The letting manger Rachel hasn't got a clue, always passing the buck and has an attitude. If you are looking for an agent to manage your property look elsewhere!!! I am.

GoogleI have recently worked on quite a large chain and worked with Jake on this particular occasion. As a Branch Manager for another Estate Agency, I can honestly say that I have never seen any estate agent persevere to get a chain through as much as Jake did. Fantastic work.

GoogleAVOID! Attempted to make an offer on a property with McCartneys and was told that it would be passed on to another member of staff that would call me in the afternoon to confirm. Late afternoon after hearing nothing I called to be told that I should wait to hear as they are "probably" waiting to hear. After a while of waiting I noticed that the property has been flagged up on their website as sold. Since making the initial offer they had made no attempt to contact me! I have tried calling - no response. Strung along through the stress of trying to purchase a house to be left in the dark! Very unprofessional - save yourself the bother and buy elsewhere!

GoogleI would never list my property with McCartneys! As a potential buyer, I called and called, left messages trying to arrange a viewing of a certain property. Finally after persistence, I got through to someone who said once viewings commence, rest assured I'd be contacted. Review the listing two weeks later, and the property had been sold - clearly in the business of a quick sale. I would be very annoyed if I was the vendor of this property!NegativeResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

GoogleThe Newtown Branch sold my mothers property and were perfect. Constant communication, excellent photos and assurance throughout the process made the sale stress free.

GoogleAvoid at all costs as a seller. Poor communication, promises made and then denied. Have to show viewers round yourself. Have to chase up feedback yourself. Precious little effort to market your house, relying on Rightmove to generate interest. All in all a terrible level of service, AND we have heard similar accounts from OTHER sellers in the area. Would give positive feedback if it was warranted and in this case 0 stars if it was possible.

GoogleCalled to view one of their properties didn’t heard for nearly two weeks! I guess if your trying to sell your house using this company! I wouldn’t recommend it because potential buyers are not getting informed correctly. Don’t waste your time.
