GoogleBuying a house is very stressful so I was relieved to deal with such professional and friendly staff. Obviously looking out for the vendors interests but sympathetic and understanding to the buyers needs. Dominique was particularly helpful and I cn recommend them.

YellOutstanding Professional Experience
From start to finish the Lettings Team at Cowell & Norford have given a perfect service. It took only two weeks from viewing a rental property to receiving the keys. A highly professional friendly experience with everyone I dealt with especially Laura.They were always happy to answer any queries and resolved issues promptly.I would have no hesitation in recommending them and using them again in the future Thank you so much Louisa

GoogleA relative of ours recently passed away while renting one Cowell Norfords propertys and the help an other relative tried to receive from the company was none,he was even told if he didn't remove the clients furniture it would be put in storage and charged for it. disgusting!.

Stuart,
I am really sorry to hear we haven't met your expectations, when dealing with the death of a relative. I understand it is a really upsetting time and I do believe we have tried to be as helpful as possible. My colleague who has been dealing with you throughout these last 5 weeks gathered all the information from the DPS ( where the deposit is held) and informed you of the process to claim the deposit.
Due to you not being able to provide the relevant information to the DPS, we suggested we could claim the deposit and remove the items in the property to store them in your storage facility, this cost would need to be recovered from the deposit ( unfortunately).
We also spoke to the landlord and informed her that the property would not / could not be cleared in time for the tenancy end date, to which they agreed to waived the 14 days rent, which should have been claimed, as we understood this was totally out of your control.
I'm really sorry this did not meet your expectations but I genuinely believe the deposit release was out of our control, but in every other way, we have bent over backwards to help you through this upsetting time.
We wish you all the best over the coming year and hope that things improve for you in 2024.

GoogleThe best? - Cowell are definitely one of the best agents in Rochdale if not the best. They have a good structure where everyone plays a specific role (instead of people trying to manage different tasks) from Craig who came out to view my property for sale and gave me a valuation, to Jonny who proactively kept in touch with me till I took them on as an agent, to Dominique who has been a star keeping me up to date regularly, being responsive with communication and negotiating the sale of my property. I would use these guys again and would be happy to recommend them.

GoogleWe are currently in the process of selling our property with Cowell and Norford, the team have been great from the start! Craig did everything to ensure a speedy turn around of getting our property on the market and helping us find our forever home. Dominique and Ben are also a credit to the team as their communication and support throughout the process has been amazing, providing us with updates regularly and helping in pushing the process along to keep things moving in a timely matter. As a whole they’re a great estate agents to trust in selling and purchasing we couldn’t recommend their services enough.

We also used their recommended Mortgage Advisor, Stephen Tyrer, and really cannot praise him enough. Stephen went above and beyond to find us our perfect lender.

Where the same review appears twice we show it once. We leave out reviews that name another agent or another of the brand's offices.
