The Moginie James team, and Jess Rigby in particular, were very helpful in getting my wife and I situated in the right letting quickly. We were able to get all of the paperwork and checks completed swiftly so we can get the keys and move in. Definitely would be interested in working with the Moginie James team in the future if we need another letting or a new home. Thanks again Jess and team!

I was surprised how friendly and professional everyone were especially my agent Zac. He was exceptional when it came to answering any of my questions . In addition, the whole process was so easy ! Thank you Morgine James !

I recently had the absolute pleasure of viewing a property with Zac. Zac was welcoming, and incredibly professional, making sure to answer all of my questions with patience and thoroughness. This made me feel confident and well-informed. If you’re looking for a dedicated and personable professional to help you find your next home, I highly recommend Zac.

Moginie James provided excellent and efficient service. Michelle gives genuine advice in my best interest even though it might create more work for herself, so you know she is honest, patient and reliable. So a special thanks to Michelle from Poncanna for helping me navigate buying a property. Also special thanks to Serian for managing to have all the paperwork and admin sorted out for me so quickly and explaining the process along the way, keeping me in the loop!

From the first meeting with Chris at my Mum and dad's Property he was approachable and listened to me as I did him on his sound advice. Clare and Neil at the Pontcanna office were always polite, informative, and experienced . Anharad with the Progression team was positive, very experienced in my view and again had the ability to listen to me the client. Michelle who I have had the pleasure of communicating with during this last few days. Have completed the sale without any problems st all. I have no hesitation in recommending this Company.

I recently made the move to Cardiff from London and stumbled across a few problems on the way which caused me to be late to pick the keys up. Jane stayed beyond the office opening times to ensure I could enter the property. Very professional from beginning to end. Great work and thank you To add to the above, I have just had an offer accepted to buy a property through Moginie James, in the same Pontcanna office (1 year after my let). Claire-Marie Woodruff was wonderful to deal with, and she's the main reason the vendor chose my offer, so they could rely on a smooth process with Claire at the helm. For the company to assist with two separate moves on both sales and lettings is quite something. Well done 👏PositiveProfessionalism

I have been letting in Cardiff for eight years, first as a student, now as a professional. I have had mixed experiences, mostly positive, when renting in Cardiff. This is my first time letting with Moginie James - I had heard good things about their company, and the quality of the properties that they advertised caught my attention on Rightmove. I spoke with Rhys in the Pontcanna branch about a property that seemed perfect for me and Rhys made the process so easy, I couldn’t believe it. Every email was answered immediately, he called about my application when he said he would and has been nothing but clear and upfront about the whole process. I feel completely at ease renting with Moginie James thanks to this experience and I would recommend them to anyone, without hesitation.

Our experience with Moginie James estate Agents has made the experience of selling our house relatively easy and pleasant. Chris Wheten provided an efficient and professional service. He visited and provided a valuation, arranged photographs and a video for marketing purposes and oversaw the viewing and selling process. He constantly gave good advice and support and responded promptly to all our enquiries in a kind and friendly manner. I would not hesitate to recommend this firm to anyone needing to sell their home.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

I've bought two properties with Moginie James over the past few years and on both occasions they have been a pleasure to deal with. Claire helped get our offer accepted quickly and the progression team were great at keeping me updated. I can tell they were really keen to keep the sale moving and keep the seller happy too. Thanks too to Jane in the Pontcanna office for going the extra mile when giving us our keys and welcome pack and always being super friendly when we pass the office with our dog!PositiveProfessionalism

Had a great experience with the Lettings agency. The agent who showed me the property and managed my application (named Chantelle) was very patient and quick to answer all of the questions I had, and very kind through each step of the way. Process went smoothly and very easy to go through step by step with their online application. Would recommend.

Recently rented a house through this office. We dealt with Chantelle who was very helpful and we felt that she was in our corner. The whole process of signing for the house was very easy and we were able to move in within two weeks. We want to thank Chantelle for helping us as much as she did. We're very grateful!

We struggled over several months to get our property in Cardiff Bay effectively promoted with the manager John O’Connor at the Pontcanna branch; we experienced a great many unnecessary problems and pitfalls along the way. We had used Moginie James as our agent some years ago and recalled the excellent quality of service we received from the manager we dealt with at that time - Ms Martine Harris. We approached her directly - and from that point onwards the service we have received from this branch has been of the highest quality and as seamless as it has been previously. Martine is a great asset to the Moginie James company and an exemplar in the provision of a highly professional customer service.

Jane and Seririan were fantastic throughout the entire transaction. They were professional, easy to contact and kept me closely updated. The process at Moginie James was well organised and professional, it certainly seems that MJ are the higher tier of estate agents in Cardiff. I will admit, I found the third party referencing agent difficult, but MJ helped me through the issues with this. I'd use again, thanks.

There were a few problems at the start with the writing of the property description and details. The writing had not been checked through properly, twice. It was badly written and grammatically poor. I think a strong first impression to a potential buyer is paramount, so I was disappointed. I ended up editing it myself and working with the branch manager to put it right. She went through it with me on the phone. So a slow start, but the rest was good. Cat was fantastic at communicating and keeping in touch over the Covid-19 lockdown. She dealt with my nerves in a very reassuring manner. Chris, the valuer, was so friendly and helpful and I appreciated Michelle's work to push the sale through to completion at the end. Overall, I would recommend the Pontcanna, Cardiff, branch. As a company, they need to be on top of their written work.PositiveResponsiveness

I wasn’t even going to approach a fourth agent for a valuation of my property but a neighbour recommended Moginie James SO highly, I did. That was the first stroke of good fortune. The second soon followed with an offer on my house for a price I was very happy with within a week. The third came when I needed to find a tenant urgently for a flat I own which was vacated at very short notice- again, Moginie James came up trumps- taken by the first to view it and again turned around within the same week as the house. On top of all that, they are a thoroughly lovely bunch of people, not something you often hear of their breed 🤭.

From viewing to renting in just over a week! The team at Moginie James are fantastic. Claire did a great Job of answering all the question I had about the property even though she had to rush out last minute on a Monday night to show me around! Jamie was proactive and incredibly efficient gathering all the information and responding to my concerns even though he had to deal with me answering all these questions on a call in the car that had the worst signal. Joanne wrapped up all my references, documentation and did an incredible job relaying my messages to the landlord. All this meant that the team was able to get me into the house within 10 days before my trip to the USA and I cannot thank them enough! A big shout out to Joanne and Jamie for answering all fifty of my calls I made to them throughout the week - you guys are great! I have and will be recommending Moginie James to everyone I know looking to rent in Cardiff :)
