Sold my property through trading places back in Feb 21. Really responsive, called and a couple of days later they were valuating the house. Gave a few pointers to get the best value which we did and then a couple of weeks after the initial value it was on the market. The photos looked amazing... really drummed up potential buyers and it was sold less than a week achieving asking price which we were delighted with. I must admit it was refreshing to deal with an agent who knows the market so well, there was a lot of historical information and knew what others had sold for with an insider knowledge. The office team were always available and even during lockdown and stamp duty craze!! They seems to know instantly who I was and where my sale was up to. Did an excellent job of liaising between myself and the buyer and even to this day I can still lean on them for support, no problem. The price for the sale was also very appealing; most firms, as the market increases, so does the rate to sell the house. Well this is not the case at trading places. They are local reasonable people and know just because you have lives in Urmston all your life does not mean you want to pay inflated agency fees. At first I was considering using an online DIY agent but I would have only saved a couple of hundred on reflection and would have to do most of the work myself. Finally I was also impressed how they went the extra mile, if i needed a trades person, say a gas engineer or a EPC cert etc. they always had someone available to help, again the price was not inflated and they did not take their cut. Its a really nice local estate agent and I hope they are there for many years.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

We opted to use Trading Places Urmston to sell our first family home as they had come highly recommended. We have bought and sold many houses over the years and we can honestly say that the level of service we received with this sale has been the best by far. The way in which they presented our property on the market was excellent and the level of communication before and during the sale process could not be faulted. This has been the least stressful sale we have ever made. Cannot thank them enough!

Trading Places have sold my house, above the asking price within 7 days. There were a few complications with solicitors and chains etc but staff at Trading Places have helped me every step of the way. Margaret must have the patience of a Saint answering all my questions, professionally and with a sense of humour. Thank you TP

Mark And Chloe are a great team. They were professional throughout and all communication was clear and timely. I felt really well looked after - they showed empathy, kindness and patience (which not many estate agents do!) whilst bringing the sale of my house to a swift completion. Definitely recommend.

From the very first viewing with the director, Steve, the level of service provided by Mandy, Gill and the team was second to none. They couldn't do enough to help us out with the purchase of our property. Can't recommend them highly enough and if you're looking to buy or sell in Urmston, Flixton or Davyhulme give these guys a call you won't be disappointed.

We recently purchased our house in Urmston via Trading Places, and we have been so happy with the service. We dealt personally with Beth and Liz, and they were always on hand to answer and questions we had, or accompany us around the property for the 5th or 6th time (!) just because we had forgotten details we wanted to check before moving in. The group is so helpful and friendly, and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to purchase in the area. Thank you Trading Places, we're so happy in our new home!!

Trading Places helped me sell my home in Manchester, Irlam. They were a pleasure to deal with & kept me notified throughout the process. Would like to especially mention their team member Chloe for being so diligent & communicative throughout the whole sale process. Would recommend them to anyone trying to buy/sell their houses, great experience.

Ding dong! I sold and purchased with Trading Places one week before Christmas. It has to be said that the whole team were fantastic, from start to finish and have completely changed my view of estate agents. First impressions matter, so Steven’s expertise and local valuation knowledge was spot-on and reassuring. The wonderful Rob and Liz handled the rest of the process with a friendly, professional manner that achieved the desired results and had a valuable calming effect over a stressful period. They handled the crucial moments with ease but they also handled the basics right, such as always being available and responding quickly on the phone and email - simple stuff I know but doesn’t half make life easier. Oh and another thing, they called us up to wish us a Merry Christmas in our new house. Sums up what genuine, lovely people Trading Places are.

After dealing with several different estate agents over the last few weeks, Sara from the Urmston branch of Trading Places is definitely worthy of a positive review. Very professional yet friendly and engaging, Sara got things moving quickly and understood our situation putting things in place off her own back to benefit us and make the process as smooth as possible. Highly recommend.

Mark and the ladies in the Urmston office were fantastic. They were there for us from day 1 even when we had an awful removal day sorting out my byers removal men who were abusive to us Mark on his day off even rang me to make sure we were OK. Can not thank them enough would recommend them.

Great service by Lee and Mark at Trading Places. Very efficient at valuing our property at a price that was realistic and yet generated a good return. Lee or Mark conducted all the viewings and were attentive, professional, polite and personable at all times. We will certainly use you again if buying or selling in the area. Thank you.

My grandmother recently sold a property through Trading Places. She has nothing but praise for all involved! From start to finish, all the staff were wonderful. They made sure she was updated throughout the process. The biggest thing was that she wasn’t pressured to go ahead at the time of valuation. We are all very grateful to the staff for their duty of care during this important and emotional process. Thank you!
