Stirling Ackroyd Twickenham reviews in Richmond upon Thames

★★★★★ 5/5

Townends have made our first property purchase a smooth and enjoyable experience. Morgan was professional from the start till the end and was happy to show us the property on many requests. Him and Claire were very easy to reach out to and always answered our queries with a matter of fact. We used both the Mortgage advisor and solicitor that Townends recommended which made the whole process even more convenient. Once our offer was accepted we had a completion date within 8 weeks! Both the estate agents and solicitors worked hard to make sure we had the process completed before Christmas. All staff in Townends were excellent at communicating and made sure we were up to date with all important information. We would highly recommend Twickenham Townends and would definitely use this estate agent again in the future.

Great Service and Follow up

Rino Russo was fantastic professional. Arranging surveys , valuation and finding a good tenant really on time . We bought property and was in process of refurbishing, he was following up the whole process and manage to find a right deal . Had many offers from other agents but chooses Stirling Ackroyd because of Rino & Chantelle service 👍🏽

Great Team!

I contacted Harrisons in August last year and Rebecca Heslam has been my main point of contact since. The process of letting my property was flawless and she has been very helpful throughout. Rebecca and her team have been nothing short of amazing and I would highly recommend Stirling Ackroyd (who have purchased Harrisons since). Highly professional and knowledgeable team, always on hand to make the landlord and tenants experience stress free.

Good renting experience

I rented a property through Stirling Ackroyd for a year and the property was managed by Rebecca Haslem. My experience throughout was very smooth. Rebecca was always quick to respond to all my questions and queries. I did not face any issues with either the tenancy or the move procedures.

First class service from Rebecca

Rebecca Heslam has managed my property for 4 years, before Stirling Ackroyd took over the agency she then worked at. She has been amazing, attentive and super responsive. There were some issues during lockdown with a tricky tenant, and she was really informative and helped me through a difficult time.

Shambolic

I’m letting a house through Stirling Ackroyd & paying 9% of the rent in management fees. For this I spend days on end chasing them to even reply to an email.The ‘carefully vetted’ tenants they found are trashing my house. I raised this with them 3 weeks ago & they gave the tenants 2 weeks to clean the place. When this deadline had expired I chased the agent to follow up - there then followed 7 days of me calling them but the property manager still did not respond to me or the tenants. The deadline they set is meaningless: why should the tenants have any respect for my property when the agent clearly doesn’t?After 8 days without reply, at 9am yesterday I called Stirling Ackroyd to raise my concerns with Natalia who manages the property management team and was told she’d call me back. She still hasn’t bothered to call me.I used to manage this house myself & got an agent in to lighten the load. Using Stirling Ackroyd has resulted in even more time, hassle and stress for which I’m paying them hundreds of pounds per month. They’re a complete shambles.

A fantastic team at Townends Twickenham. Particular thanks to Claire and Morgan for doing a great job with selling our house in just a few weeks, and accomodating our indoor cat Kylo during house viewings! Would definitely recommend Townends if you're thinking of selling your home. :)

Tenant beware, unprofessional agency

Tenant beware - unfortunately after a decent lettings process with Melissa, the move-in and management since have been terrible. There were a number of issues upon move-in with no response from the company including regarding statutory obligations (appliances not working, pest problems, unsanitary conditions, mould), with only a "we are understaffed due to COVID". This is ridiculous given managed lettings is the only part of the company with guaranteed recurring income. Just as one example, I have not been able to sleep a single night and have resorted to sleeping in the lounge due to a loud, broken fan in the bedroom. It took 1.5 weeks before Stirling Ackryod (Sarah) finally scheduled an engineer visit. Now the day before the visit when I called the contractor to confirm (after 4 emails asking for the contractor details), I have been told the appointment was never made.

House buyers survey

House buyers survey done to a very low standard. I feel nothing had been pointed out that that we had not seen. Lots of recommendations to bring in other contractors. After getting the keys to property and spending a few hours in the property my untrained eye cracks in brick work as one example. If this is the industry standard it is a complete waste of money.

Thank you so very much

Thankfully, selling my property was nothing but an easy, smooth sailing process. I have never worked with Stirling Ackroyd before and I would have no hesitation in recommending them. I initially spoke with Freddie, from their central team, who gave me advice on the current market and the best things to do with my property, he was phenomenally helpful with brilliant customer service skills. Thank you to Freddie and all at Stirling Ackroyd.

Great estate agency

Great estate agency; very polite, professional and helpful in their approach. Estate agent took his time in explaining the process and made a valuable recommendations to me. I didn’t feel pushed or rushed in making any decision which is very unlikely to other estate agencies we came across lately.. Thank you for your great service! much appreciated

Having recently purchased a flat through Townends I cannot praise the team high enough. Morgan was an absolute pleasure to deal with from start to finish. Whilst the sale was going through he provided great advice. Always very candid with no BS just to push the sale through. He’s a credit to the estate agency profession. Claire too was also super helpful when Morgan was unavailable so overall a very positive experience so thank you all once again.

Just secured a second tenancy through Stirling Ackroyd Twickenham with the help of Lily Howe who's professional, courteous, super-friendly and has gone above and beyond to help me find a great flat! So thankful for the efficient service, it makes life in current times a little less stressful. Daniel has also been great and really helped me last year when I needed a flat after a property chain collapsed.

Efficient work from Clive Martin at SA

We noticed we had faulty appliances and we contacted our property manager Clive Martin from SA about it. Clive organised a contractor to come identify the problem the next day and the faulty appliances were replaced in no time. Clive was extremely helpful and swift in his actions, which made our life easier in a difficult situation. We find him an excellent manager who is easy to reach and efficient.

First time buyers experience

We are on the process of buying a property sold via Stirling Ackroyd. Spencer de Jonge has been our main point of contact, so far we are happy with the process.Overall:- Polite when showing us around, not pushy- Good at responding to emails- Did try to get us validated by their own mortgage advisor, but we had no issues when we decided to proceed with our own.

Natalie David from the Byfleet office was very good in a very difficult situation. She always replied to my emails promptly, was always polite and patient and was the only one who gave us confidence that something would be achieved and followed through with. We were not at all pleased with the service from Stirling Ackroyd, but would like thank Natalie for everything she did to help us.

Warning: Shady Tactics Ahead!

Warning: Shady Tactics Ahead!Writing this review under the name Daniel to protect privacy. My experience with Stirling Ackroyd was a disappointment. They promise one thing on the phone but do another via email, leading to confusion. The agents are rude and arrogant, showing no respect. They also use manipulative tactics to push buyers into overpaying. Save yourself the trouble and avoid Stirling Ackroyd!!!

Stirling Ackroyd were very patient and thorough during the sale of my flat. I found that everyone I dealt with was very professional and courteous at all times too. It was a challenging task to sell my flat during a pandemic, but they gave me great advice the entire time and really helped guide me through the process. Special mention to Sam Currie for going the extra mile for me too!
