Manning Stainton Wakefield reviews

Zarah has been very understanding of my concerns regarding the property I'm purchasing and has regularly chased up the vendors and contact companies when they have been very slow to respond (over a month). She has been very patient and apologised for inconvenience even though I've assured her that I haven't been frustrated with her. She certainly has excellent person to person skills. I believe your company is fortunate to have Zarah and if I was an employer she would without doubt be on my radar to recruit.

I was genuinely so impressed with Manning Stainton. They are a fantastic estate agents. Everyone was really friendly in the Wakefield Branch and I felt from minute one that everyone actually cared and wanted to help. Millie at the start of the process was super friendly and helpful. Harry who visited my property to value and take the photographs was also really friendly. In 24 hours the brochure was complete and the property listed on the market. 3 days later I had it sold STC. I couldn’t praise them enough with how quick they were with this process. As part of the process, you are allocated a move manager. My move manager was Ann Rimmington. I can’t begin to speak more highly of her. The conveyancers in all parts of the chain were so poor, but Ann was able to chase them everyday and keep the pressure on to get things done. Her communication was excellent and I was always kept in the loop. She’s absolutely fantastic at her job and without her I don’t know if the chain would have survived. Overall, I couldn’t have had a better experience with Manning Stainton, and I would highly recommend anyone to use them for their next move. I know I’d use them again in a heartbeat if I need them, but I’ve hopefully found my forever home now!

Decided to put my house on the market with Manning Staintons in December and it sold within 3 weeks. The service has been amazing and the staff are always friendly and very professional. An extra big thank you to Laura and Ellie who have been really helpful and always happy to answer any questions I had and were extremely patient with my excessive number of phone calls! Well done to the rest of the team too, would highly recommend you.

Very recently purchased a property via MS and was very impressed. Ellie (Crowder) sorted everything out for us, nothing was a problem and did everything she promised.. definitely felt like she went above and beyond. I then met the other staff yesterday when picking up the keys and again they were lovely as well as professional. I felt like the purchase went seamlessly and very quick and I’m quite sure the seller who had chosen MS felt the same after speaking to him. Also thank you to Ann Rinnington who also helped and moved the process along. Well done and thank you again all at Manning Stainton (Wakefield). Oh and thanks for the lovely goodie bag. A very nice touch ❤️❤️. Would 100% recommend you!!

Recently dealt with Zarah Mahmood who is courteous, very competent and efficient and works quickly. She clearly knew the property in question and worked very hard to get the required outcome for the client. Very impressed and would definitely recommend Manning Stainton solely on the basis of the quality of her work. Thank you Zarah!

Polite,professional and informative. Chloe, Georgie and Ann were involved with our purchase and answered any questions we had. We weren’t always available to answer phone calls but they still regularly updated us in any progress by leaving detailed and relevant voice mails and therefore didn’t require call backs when unavailable during call hours. Thank you for all your help!

I had a really great experience working with Laura Adkin, the Sales Manager. She was so helpful from the start and made everything feel a lot less stressful than I expected. Laura was always easy to get hold of, happy to answer any questions, and kept me updated every step of the way. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble for her, which made a big difference.

Laura was very helpful, arranged the viewing of the property quickly, helped us with negotiation and managed to get our offer accepted in just a couple of days. The whole process was very fast and straightforward, which is hard to find nowadays. I would definitely recommend using Manning Stainton estate agents, and Laura in particular.

Poor communication / dishonesty. Semi salvaged by branch manager Lee. Inaccurate information has been given to me from start to finish by various staff members. E.g. “vendor will take £350k” the next day “vendor won’t entertain any offers below £360k”. A lack of communication is also an issue. Offers were made with no feedback until I called the branch. After my latest offer was seemingly ignored by the branch, I wrote a review on trust pilot. Branch manager Lee called me to discuss (which was good of him). He took the time to inform me that the house wasn’t advertised £100k over the market value to deceive people (see previous review) it was actually to test the market. This insight was very useful in understanding how MS operate). Eventually he did inform me that my offer wasn’t accepted and that the vendor was in receipt of significantly higher offers. Whilst not ideal, at least I now know where I stand, as previously the staff member had advised me that my offer of £330k was good as It’s cash. I would have gone higher and not wasted anyone’s time had I known the vendor was sitting on a better offer. Regardless, I now know the best way to get hold of MS is via these means. Still interested in the property.

Currently buying a house with Manning Stainton and the EA Georgie Cullerton has been fantastic. As first time buyers it’s a little nerve wracking going through the unknown but Georgie always had time to talk me through next steps and any questions I’ve had. Thank you so much, its made the first leg of the journey really smooth 😊. …

They say selling a house is stressful time, but we found the experience with Laura and the team at Manning Stainton quite easy. They were always on the end of the phone, professional and understanding, and shared information at the right times. In all, they converted our listing to a sale in only a few weeks, a great result!!

I honestly can’t speak highly enough of Bismah. She supported me through both the sale of my previous home and the purchase of my new one, and the experience was outstanding from beginning to end. Bismah was incredibly thorough, nothing was overlooked, and her professionalism shone through at every stage. What really set her apart, though, was her kindness and calm approach. Selling and buying can be a stressful and emotional process which I felt quite overwhelmed with, but she handled everything with such care and understanding that I always felt in safe hands. She kept me informed throughout, explained everything clearly, and always had time for my questions, no matter how small. Her advice was thoughtful and honest, and she never made me feel rushed or pressured. She never made me feel like I had a silly question and I appreciated the informal but honest communication which made me feel at ease. Thanks to Bismah’s hard work and dedication, everything went through as smoothly as possible. If you’re looking for someone who’s not only excellent at their job but also genuinely cares about getting it right for you, I wouldn’t hesitate for a moment to recommend her.

Having recently completed a particularly challenging sale with Mannings Wakefield. I’d just like to thank Georgie and Harry for their commitment and professionalism in getting this over the line in just over 8 weeks, including the Christmas/ New Year break!....constant communication to keep buyer and seller aligned along with chasing of solicitors kept everything on track. Great to see an agent go above and beyond.

I have been dealing with Laura at Manning Stainton for a few weeks now as I am buying a property from them. Laura has been amazing throughout the process so far. She has been extremely helpful in a very stressful situation and has made things run as smoothly as possible. She is always at the end of the phone and nothing has been too much trouble. I can highly recommend this estate again and particularly Laura Adkin.

We had an absolutely fantastic experience dealing with Georgie Cullerton at Manning Stainton. She was amazing from start to finish - extremely knowledgeable, professional and helpful throughout the whole process. Georgie helped us negotiate a deal quickly and efficiently, and we were particularly impressed that she managed to get all the paperwork sorted on the same day. She made what could have been a stressful process feel straightforward and hassle-free. We genuinely couldn't have asked for better service and would definitely consider using Georgie again when it comes to selling our house in the future. Thank you, Georgie, for all your help - highly recommended!
