GoogleVery pleased with the service overall and the communication from start to end. We are first time buyers and it was new and unfamiliar territories for us but Fiona put us at ease from the beginning and was very professional, which helped us trust her expert opinion. We were particularly impressed with how she kept us on the loop, especially towards the end - really helped keep the stress levels low! Would definitely recommend!

GoogleWe dealt with Trading Places in Sale and I have to say this team are absolutely AMAZING. We honestly couldnβt thank them enough for all the hard work on our purchase with them. We dealt mainly with Fiona and she has gone above and beyond from start to finish to ensure things ran as smoothly as possible on such a tricky chain. This team is definitely the guys you want to get in touch with if you want an honest company who will look after you throughout. Thank you Trading Places Sale for everything, you have been amazing.

GoogleI have been the companyβs client for many years for selling and lettings, I must say both teams are great and act professional. They are friendly and helpful, reply to emails quick and very efficient. Julie and Meh from the letting part are very proactive, they do their best to attract the clients. I was always up to date with viewings appointment and feedbacks . They would advise you purely and help to get the property going. This experience applies to the selling team too, Fiona and Bev. Thank you very much for your hard work. I would strongly recommend The Trading places company to everyone.

GoogleTrading Places was an absolute stepping stone for me, Julie Mottram literally did everything within her power to help me get the place I wanted, in Sale Manchester. Her team was extremely helpful with the whole process. I only have good things to say about this agency and the landlords working with Trading Places. Sometimes a safe haven is a cozy little flat, that helps you get your act together for a couple years, while you work and save. I'm really grateful to this company for helping me move forward with life.

GoogleWe had a bad experience with the Lettings Director Julie Mottram at Trading Places Sale office at the end of October 2020. We were selling our property (so we have to wait for our buyer and solicitorβs process) and decided to go for a rented one in Sale area. We found a great flat with this agency as they are the most popular agency in the area and paid a holding deposit of Β£180 for the letting, but unfortunately, our buyer pulled out, so we came back to Mrs. Mottram, explaining the situation asking her to consider the difficulties that pandemic year supposed for every process in several diferents ways, to see the possibilities of using the holding deposit for a different renting property once our property was finally sold. By writing, she replied: βI will have to come back to you regarding the holding fee as you have pulled out and you would normally lose the whole holding fee as stated in the document.β We called her and she allows us to use the deposit in the next 3 months.
With our property sold and before that time (3months) expire, we came back to her ready for booking a viewing for a new renting property but she told us we couldnβt use the holding deposit, saying they only allow to use the deposit in the next 15days gainsaying what she told us before. Leaving the holding deposit matter on the side, we still were needing a place to live, so every time I called her for booking a viewing (As she got my contact details) for every property they had on the website she said they were already taken. My husband called from a different number and successfully book a viewing in one of the same properties.
Now 2021mid-year we finally were able to find a property (directly with a landlord, no agency in the middle) but this Lady makes all the process even more difficult and painful during this pandemic times not only with the holding deposit but denying the possibility to book any viewings reducing all our options to find a place to live.NegativeProfessionalism

GoogleLetting summary.... For those thinking of Trading Places being your letting agent for your property. Please reconsider such.
Being an overseas landlord and having numerous properties already, Julie and Mev seem to talk to talk, but fall very short of walking the walk. By far the worst service I have received in 10 years.
Items:
- Very slow on email communication (inability to whatsapp)
- No initial or end of tenancy inventory taken or issued
- Signed contract never provided
- Initial cleaning was very poor and tenant sent me photo proof
- Slow replies even when it came to extending lease/renegotiation with tenant
- Tenant even reached out to me as the "full management letting agent" were all uncontactable after a couple of weeks about a particular repair
- Even one repair was never finished off (painting over new plaster)
- Gas certificate never issued although charged
- Where they did sort a repair, the repair was above market rate. This included a washing machine repair for example which was more expensive than purchasing a brand new one.
I was very fortunate to have a really pleasant, understanding and nice tenant who cut out the middle man agents (Julie and Mev) and came straight to myself to assist them. Thank you for that as I really appreciate such communication.
Summary:
Trading places purchase was smooth but not outstanding.
Trading places letting talk the talk, but cannot even crawl when it comes to walking the walk!NegativeResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

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.
