Stirling Ackroyd Lettings Station Road reviews

Although I found a different property from the one Townsend showed me I have to say that I was really very impressed with how kind and patient and attentive Eimantas was. He was proactive in contact the landlord and honest in how I would make an offer. He also sent me follow up properties that were very close to my specification requirements would have happily rented through townsends but something with an earlier move in date came up.

Having used many letting agents I was a bit sceptical as this was the first time I was using Sterling Ackroyd. Have to give them credit they provided everything they promised. Fast professional service and Chantelle was always available to answer any of my concerns. Will definitely use them again.

Colin has been very professional and he helped us when we decided to leave the flat. One single big negative note from my side. The original contract they wanted us to sign included a clause that allowed them to subscribe a contract in our name with SPARK Energy. Despite the landlord said not to do so (and we signed a contract without that clause), the people from the main office created our account anyway with that supplier and we kept receiving bills despite having a regular contract with EON. From the central office they did nothing to help us fixing the mess they did; eventually we figured out that the meter ID number they gave to SPARK was wrong and, after they realized what kind of idiots they are, they cancelled the contract. We had to deal with this situation for more than 3 month. So this was not a problem with the guys in this office but with those in the main one.

“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.

Professional, efficient and knowledgeable are the words I'd use to describe my interaction with SA - most specifically Sheldon Bechie who went over and beyond in seeking to find us a new home. Sheldon has the loveliest tempremant and was super patient in understanding all of our requests. The whole liason with everyone at SA was fab and such experiences permit such reviews. Keep up the fab work guys ...and give Sheldon a pay rise! Hehe. We will definitely recommend your services to friends and family.

The worst renting experience I have…

The worst renting experience I have ever had. I have rented through Stirling Ackroyd (Bermondsey branch) for the past 2+ years and have dealt with several individuals. I have constantly been met with unprofessionalism and unhelpfulness. The worst of our situation during our tenancy was when our boiler broke in January and Stirling Ackroyd left us without hot water and heating for 30 days due to their lack of communication and urgency. This resulted in us reaching out to the landlord directly who dealt with the situation immediately. I genuinely do not know what they do on the daily as it does not seem to be managing properties. They also cannot read their own contracts they drafted and tried to take out money unnecessarily from our deposit at the end of our tenancy. Would never use again.

Undervalued property after their initial "the property is worthless" valuation

Shocking. Run away if they come to value your property! My experience with Stirling Ackroyd Surveyors property evaluation service, who acted on behalf of HSBC, was shockingly unprofessional. The evaluator arrived late, dressed inappropriately with trousers around their bum and not being friendly. The initial evaluation inexplicably valued the property at ZERO, displaying a severe lack of competence and attention to detail.Despite providing further documentation, Stirling Ackroyd's response was to undervalue the property without clear justification, undermining our confidence in their process. The lack of transparency and accountability throughout was deeply concerning. For anyone considering HSBC for property evaluation through their agents Stirling Ackroyd Surveyors, I would strongly recommend looking elsewhere for a more professional and reliable service.Update. Look at their AI-generated response. They can't even write a proper, more human response. So robotic. Just appalling.

Excellent Service

I dealt with many different estate agents over months of searching for properties in East London, and Stirling Ackroyd (Dalston branch) were fantastic to deal with throughout. Silviu Strufanga was extremely knowledgeable, helpful and patient with regard to the viewings themselves, the offer process, and the subsequent exchange and completion. Liam and Beckie were also very helpful during this process, and communication was excellent throughout. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Stirling Ackroyd to a friend or family member.

This company took our holding fee, didn't find us a property. When I asked them for the money they said we provided false information, which is a lie. They are thieves. I wouldn't trust them to anything for me. Use any other agent but them

Solid Advice and Innate Wisdom

There are so many good estate agencies out there and choosing one out of them all is never easy. In a flourishing, fluid market, some of the agents are young, slickly competitive and as fast as Flash Gordon. Others are more measured, experienced and steady. I have learned that all of them are incredibly dedicated, hardworking and inevitably successful, but it was the latter set of qualities that drew me to Stirling Ackroyd. That may say more about me than it does about them, but as one complication after another surfaced, I learned to appreciate their solid advice and innate wisdom, especially as I was a complete novice in the business of selling a house.The process took at least two months longer than it should have due to the problems we faced! But we got there, and the date of final completion was a wonderful day and cause for great celebration!I want to thank the Stirling Ackroyd Sales Progression Team for their hard work but, more especially, the amazing bunch at Streatham! Wayne and Anthony, thank you so much for walking me through a daunting process, answering my panicked cries for help, sometimes outside of office hours - and for your grace, humour and integrity in dealing with my ignorance. Thank you to your colleagues, too, for their efficiency in handling my queries.I would not hesitate to recommend Stirling Ackroyd to anyone looking for help in selling a property. Thank you again!

Highly recommended

I had been trying to sell Mum’s flat for over a year with other estate agents. I moved to Stirling Ackroyd Guildford and they made a real effort to sell, they didn’t just suggest I keep dropping the price but went out to find suitable buyers. We got an offer and the sale process was slow but Jack kept me informed and kept chasing up the other parties and the sale eventually went through. I would certainly use them again

Great new tenants

Stirling Ackroyd have just found and signed up some lovely new tenants for our Shoreditch office. Lucy Stephens was, as always, extremely professional and took the time to find the right client for the premises. The whole building has shifted from admin offices to showrooms and offices for fashion and style so our new tenants fit perfectly. Stirling Ackroyd have been in Shoreditch forever and really know the area and clientele better than anyone. Lucy provided a full service which included chasing up and liaising with all parties. Thank you.

The Exception(al) Proves the Rule

Stirling Ackroyd's William Davey was an absolute pleasure to work with. Thanks to his highly professional, friendly, informative and patient manner, he was able to transform what should have been a confusing and stressful process into a largely enjoyable one. As swiss nationals moving to the UK for the first time, my finacée and I naturally had a huge number of questions and concerns that needed to be addressed. We were more than a little worried about our chances of finding an apartment in such a short time frame. Will was able to answer all of our questions in a way that was not only satisfactory but also encouraging and efficient. He helped us to iron out the kinks in our negotiations with the landlord and happily educated us on the ins and outs of renting in London. He also went above and beyond the call of duty to ensure that our communication with Donna Collette, the move-in manager, went as smoothly as possible. Overall I'd say that my fiancée and I are very happy with the service that we recieved and would absolutely recommend Stirling Ackroyd and especially William Davey to anybody whom it may concern.

I have just sold my 1-bed flat through the Hackney Branch. The service was spot-on. Kyle and Darren were always available to answer questions when needed, and I was really impressed with how many viewings the team were able to secure in a really short space of time.The difference between the local agent who we'd used initially was night and day. Kyle made sure that lots of people came through the door, and we secured a good offer within days of being listed. Kyle was also on hand to reassure me during the next few weeks as we moved towards exchange and completion.All in all, really good service. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Kyle, Darren and the rest of the Hackney Stirling Ackroyd team.

It's not every day I give 5 stars when dealing with estate agents in property processes but the process of buying our investment property in London Bridge through Caroline Offergelt was a super straightforward and I would be delighted to have the opportunity to work with her again. I have no hesitation in giving Caroline 5 stars out of 5. She is organised, friendly, knowledgeable and above all straightforward to deal with and above all trustworthy. I hope Stirling Ackroyd appreciate the asset you have in Caroline.

This agency has been very good and supportive for us so far from especially Ashley Castle. They were very approachable during our agreement process and even after 3 months of agreement, Ashley calls us and checks how we are settling in and if any support is needed.

Great service given by Victor Abdulai

Just wanted to say a big thank you to Victor Abdulai the Sales Director of the Thornton Heath branch. I’ve been looking for a property for a few months without any success. I decided to then visit a few estate agents on the Thornton Heath high street. Went to visit a few competitors did but not feel welcome in any of them I was not asked of my requirements just gave my name and number and left. I then walked into the Stirling Ackroyd Thornton Heath Victor Abdulai immediately stood up and greeted me , introduced himself and made me feel welcome. He then presided in asking what my requirements were, how long I’ve been looking and the things I didn’t like about the properties I’d seen. Victor then discussed about the other services Stirling Ackroyd offered ie financial services and solicitors which I will be using. Victor didn’t have anything that suited my requirements at the time. He promised he will keep in touch once a something comes up and true to his word I got a phone call from Victor that he might have a property for me. I went to view the property it ticked all the boxes I’m so estactic and over the moon that I have now found my dream property. My offer was accepted and now going through the legal side of things. I can’t thank Victor Abdulai for having the time and patience in finding me my dream property. I have recommended Stirling Ackroyd to all my friends as I was so impressed with there service.

Inconsiderate, untrustworthy, unprofessional

Absolutely horrible service from Stirling Ackroyd Thornton Heath branch, particularly Victor Abdulai, who handled our case as Joanna Evangelou's left on holiday. Our offer was accepted, and we were instructed to undergo a Credas check and docusign by Jo. Instead of transparently explaining the situation from the seller's side, our details were promptly forwarded to the solicitor, creating the illusion of progress. Eager to move, we completed forms and payments within 24 hours.Regrettably, our attempts to communicate were met with unanswered emails and callbacks. The lack of feedback has caused us stress and is disheartening. Astonishingly, the property was sold to another buyer without even the courtesy of informing us. This was informed to us by the solicitor they referred us to while we were in the middle of the process.We were actively exploring multiple houses daily, relying on an approved mortgage offer expiring in December. This commitment by Stirling Ackroyd led us to reject two other properties. Despite the urgency of our situation, we were misled and left in the background while the seller sought another buyer.This unreliable and inconsiderate service has left us in distress, with concerns about its impact on our mortgage offer & our housing needs. Given timely feedback and clarity, we would have willingly considered alternative properties.Our disappointment stems from the lack of clarity, false hopes, and the significant waste of our time. Stirling Ackroyd has offered us exceptionally unprofessional, untrustworthy, and inconsiderate service.
