Tanks to Ollie's hard work and diligence I am now happily settling into my prefect home! I am incredibly grateful for all his support and expertise. It’s clear that he is a tremendous asset to Shipways Estate Agency and I sincerely believe that he deserve recognition for his outstanding service. Thank you for making 100 miles move with 2 XL removals vans to be smooth and enjoyable experience!

After a slow start selling our property we switched to Shipways and immediately had more interest, views and after a brilliantly organised block-viewing one weekend had four offers to choose between. Andrea has been friendly, communicative and professional as our main point-of-contact and the rest of the team are responsive too... No complaints! In-branch mortgage services have also been great for several re-mortgages over the years too.

We are currently going through the process of buying a property with Shipways. Jack was the agent who accompanied us on 2 viewings. He was really approachable and gave us a good amount of information on the property. He was really proactive in following up post the viewing and helping us to submit our offer. We are very much looking forward to completing on the house in the weeks to come. Thank you Jack for your help.

Shipways are fantastic and helped me achieve a sale with a great price after I originally marketed with another agent who turned out to be disappointing. Abbi is always helpful and keeps me up to date when necessary. She is always a pleasure to deal with and so are the rest of the team. Would definitely recommend!

Very happy so far with the services we have had from Shipways Shirley. The entire team are friendly, knowledgeable and responsive. In particular, Clark has been excellent from start to finish. He has been receptive to all our questions, communicated with us regularly, and was very supportive. At no point I felt uncertain / unsure about anything as Clark made the entire process really easy for us and crystal clear. Highly recommend going with Shipways.

I have recently sold and purchased properties through Shipways Shirley and can not fault them. Right from the start they were knowledgeable and informative. The whole process went smoothly, Sam consistently kept us up to date with progress from both sides and could not have done more to make the whole process easy for us. Highly recommend the whole team at the Shirley branch.

Warning fo not use Shipways

The service I received from shopways was diabolical from getting tenants to evict of tenants. They didn’t make regular visits to the tenants and they didn’t act when tenants repeatedly broke the contract when we finally evicted the tenants the house was a mess, toilet blocked, razor blades in drains walls damaged needing re plaster. brand new carpets ruined extraction fan blocked thick with grease broken kitchen units. Constant flooding of the bathroom and lack of he’s caused mould to travel down walls and paper to peel. Stools used inside the bath caused damage to the bath well beyond general wear and tear. There TDS to regain the cost of repair wasn’t granted to us so all in all we lost all our savings on constant repairs due to negligence on the tenant part and we’ve now had to sell the house shitways are definitely not the people you want to use to rent your house.

I thought my buying my first home would be a daunting experience; complicated jargon and a long winded process. However, Ricky at Shipways made the whole process much easier,  explained everything in simple terms and was  available to answer any queries promptly. Ricky was supportive, helpful and friendly throughout the process, even whilst working in a pandemic, communication was always clear and coherent, so I always knew the next step. He is truly an asset to Shipways! I would definitely use Shipways again in the future and recommend Ricky to others who are in need of mortgage advice. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

During the last few months the housing market has gone into overdrive. We've found it very difficult to be able to find the property we were looking for and then get the correct advice to proceed. Shipways are a well known brand so we had no qualms but it's always good to be reassured and to feel that we were being looked after. Enter Rosie. Rosie was the first person we spoke to when we wanted to arrange a viewing on a property we liked. She was absolutely amazing. She answered all questions and queries we had without any issues - even the stupid ones! She was very professional and always supportive. The property we wanted was in huge demand so it went to the 'full and final offer' stage. Rosie was very professional and so couldn't show biase towards us or give us any additional information (although we tried really hard!) but she was very empathetic and told us to take our time and not rush (when most estate agents just pressure for a figure almost immediatey!) and to do what WE felt was right for US, which is the advice we followed. Thankfully, our offer for the property was accepted and we are in the process of trying to complete the sale. We would like to thank the whole Shipways Shirley team but, if we're honest, we wouldn't have pushed so hard for the property had it not been for Rosie's efforts - she's a massive asset to the branch and the company!PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism
