Stirling Ackroyd Twickenham reviews in Richmond upon Thames

★★★★★ 5/5

Google

I've worked with a few estate agents in the area and have to say my experience with Townends was the best so far. They found a number of suitable tenants within a week of marketing my property at asking price. The whole place was rented out within 2 weeks start to finish. I am only leaving temporarily so it was important to find someone who I could trust to look after my home I am confident that Stephanie, George and the team have ensured I found the right tenant who will look after my home. Thank youPositiveQuality, Professionalism

I had a great experience working with Ruby while renting my flat. She was incredibly helpful, professional, and always quick to respond to any questions I had. The whole process was smooth and stress-free thanks to her support. Highly recommend her if you're looking for someone reliable and easy to work with! Thanks Ruby!!

My details passed on to an energy company without my consent

My energy contract was taken over by an energy company without my consent and without Informing me. When I challenged them, they said that my letting agent for the property in this case one of Stirling Ackroyd agents had given my details to a partnership that has an agreement with the energy company. I was not very happy about this as this energy contract transfer has caused issues for me. The letting agency obviously has this agreement. I found it shocking that they told this partnership the date that my flat was going to be empty and when to take over the energy supply without notifying me and without my express consent.This is very upsetting. Not sure I can trust them again.

Experienced and professional service with a complex portfolio

We have been clients of Stirling Ackroyd (with their letting service) for about two years, and they have been highly professional and knowledgeable. They have managed property issues in a timely fashion as they arise, including handling a complex refurbishment, transferring from a previous (and inept) managing agent, and some slightly difficult tenants. They are also on top of all of the relevant regulatory matters, and do everything in a legally correct manner (to the best of my limited knowledge). I would happily recommend their services.

Certainly

Certainly! Here's another review:"We had an outstanding experience working with Omar during our apartment search. From the moment we met, Omar demonstrated a deep understanding of the rental market and took the time to truly understand our preferences and needs. Their attention to detail and responsiveness made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Omar was always available to answer any questions we had and provided valuable guidance every step of the way. Thanks to their dedication and expertise, we found the perfect apartment that exceeded our expectations. We wholeheartedly recommend Omar to anyone in need of a reliable and knowledgeable agent.Emmanuel

Good service from Omar

We were fortunate to have Omar Robertson assist us in finding our new home. From the initial contact, Omar was professional and efficient. He sent us a detailed list of properties that matched our preferences, and once we made a selection, he coordinated the visit.From there, the process became somewhat tedious as the reference company took longer than expected. However, throughout this time, Omar demonstrated exceptional patience and a polite attitude towards us. He advocated on our behalf, doing everything possible to overcome any obstacles that arose.I would like to highlight Omar's proactiveness and kindness towards clients. He was always one step ahead, anticipating our needs and providing exceptional service. His positive approach and willingness to overcome challenges made the entire process much more manageable. We are very grateful for his professionalism and highly recommend him as a real estate agent

Keo was hands down the best

Keo was hands down the best agent I’ve spoken to so far. Highly recommend him as an agent, helpful, knowledgeable and super patient considering I’ve never purchased a property before!

Townends Sales team were great other Estate Agents seemed sleazy and cared more about getting a For Sale board up for the free advertising. Guy Bennett didn't try and lie to us about the state of the market there was a slight dip in prices that was noticeable from us looking. He gave us a price where he thought our flat would go for and sure enough they had a great buyer lined up already to walk through our door. Within less than a week we received an offer that was for the full asking price. Throughout the conveyancing process unfortunately the after sales team weren't quite up to the high standards set by Guy but this review is of the Twickenham branch and so Guy and his team deserve 5 stars. Would definitely get Townends in again to quote to sell us whereas i wouldnt bother with the other spammers.

David is exceptional in both his skill and in his understanding of the property market. He reassured me right from the start and I immediately felt confident in his ability. He totally "got" my concerns and needs when dealing with the prospects of finding new tenants for my property. As I live in New Zealand this could have proved to be very challenging but David kept in contact with me every step of the way via long distance phone calls and emails. I now have new tenants! Heartfelt thanks to David (and to Daniel who conducted the viewings) As they say here in New Zealand, " You Guys totally rock!"

We highly recommend the team at Townends. They've been really great with us and always tried their best to meet our expectations. Morgan is a very hardworking team member, who always goes the extra mile to make the client happy! The purchase of our new property went very smoothly and we can thank him and the team for that. We have now recently rented our property as well and I also have to take my hat off to their lettings team (especially David, Daniel and Stephanie), they did a fantastic job from start to end! Thanks everyone at the Townends family!

2 properties significantly undersold by £90,000

I owned two new build properties in the Witton area which were taken over by LPA receivers whilst almost completing exchange of contracts. The LPA receivers appointed Stirling Ackroyd and did not appoint anyone in competition which in my opinion should have been done. Sterling Ackroyd stated over a period of 4 to 6 months that they were unable to find a buyer and that they could only find buyers for the properties £90,000 below its actual market value that they were being sold for. It seems that the sales reps either lack experience or this is a sale of serious convenience !!The properties were sold without a completion certificate in place, therefore an illegal transaction. The buyers of one of the houses were told they could remove the disability ramp, which they did. This is a condition of the completion certificate and local authority requirements and therefore a legal requirement. Both the LPA receivers, and Stirling Ackroyd were fully aware of this fact. Perhaps they need to explain to the new owners that they will need to rebuild the disability ramp at their expense. There are other factors still to be complied with in return to obtain a completion certificate.

“Delayed Deposit and Poor Communication: A Frustrating Experience with Stirling Ackroyd”

I moved out of my property on August 27, and as of today, I still haven’t received my deposit back. Stirling Ackroyd informed me that they were waiting on my final bill from Vital Energi to deduct any outstanding amount. After contacting Vital myself, I discovered that Stirling Ackroyd didn’t submit the required information until the beginning of October. Although the bill was sent to the agency on October 8, Stirling Ackroyd continues to deny they’ve received it.Be cautious when dealing with this agency, as their responsiveness to emails is notably slow.

Extremely poor experience

Extremely poor experience. They really push to get the holding deposit, but once that is done the agent disappeared. No information was provided earlier about the agent going on a holiday, and no one else was assigned to take over the task once they are on a holiday. I had already paid the deposit so couldn’t back out but also couldn’t get any further details to finalise the tenancy. Spent the whole week in uncertainty. Worst people ever.
