GoogleI cannot recommend Manning Stainton highly enough. From my very first interaction, the service has been consistently professional, efficient, and reassuring. Selling a property can be a stressful experience, but the team has made the entire process as straightforward as possible.
Angela Murray has been truly outstanding throughout. Her communication has been exceptional, keeping me fully informed at every stage and always responding promptly to any queries. Angela’s professionalism, attention to detail, and genuine commitment to providing excellent customer service have been second to none. She has gone above and beyond, and I have felt completely supported throughout the process.
I would also like to thank James for his excellent valuation of the property. His knowledge of the local market, honest advice, and professional approach gave me confidence from the very beginning.
Every member of the Manning Stainton team has been friendly, approachable, and highly professional. It is clear they genuinely care about their clients and take pride in delivering an outstanding service.
I would not hesitate to recommend Manning Stainton to anyone looking to buy or sell a property. Thank you to Angela, James, and the entire team for making the experience such a positive one.

GoogleI approached Manning's some time ago about putting our house on the market. There was no pressure, but they kept in touch until we felt the time was right. And we were right to chose Manning's as our preferred agent.
Initially seen by Louise, before being appointed Leah as our dedicated Negotiator. Leah was great, friendly and professional, keeping in contact and ultimately securing a sale.
Would def recommend Manning's and Leah. A joy to deal with and to date has proved to be very stress-free.
Thank you.

GoogleZarah 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.

GoogleWe had an excellent experience with the team at Intercounty Saffron Walden while selling our home in Haverhill. From the very beginning, they were professional, attentive, and clearly committed to achieving the best outcome for us.
The valuation process was thorough and well-explained, giving us great confidence in the pricing strategy. We were especially impressed by the extra time and care taken to present our home at its best, the photographs were beautifully done and truly captured all the unique features and details of the property.
A special thank you to Blake, who handled the entire process seamlessly. He kept us informed at every step, explained everything clearly, and made what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and manageable.
Thanks to their expertise and dedication, our house was sold quickly, within just two months, and the entire journey through to handing over the keys was handled efficiently and professionally.
We would highly recommend Intercounty Saffron Walden to anyone looking to sell their home.

GoogleI 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!

GoogleVery 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.

GooglePoor 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.

Hi Elliot,
Thank you for taking the time to update your review between Trust Pilot and Google and for acknowledging the follow-up discussion with our Branch Manager, Lee. We appreciate the opportunity to clarify a few points.
Inaccurate information was not provided to you, the vendor’s position genuinely changed and a misunderstanding was relayed to yourself, the figure they were prepared to consider also altered. This can sometimes happen when sellers reconsider their expectations or receive new levels of interest.
Regarding communication, our team had been awaiting the vendor’s formal response before providing an update on your offer. We understand this delay can be frustrating and apologise if it gave the impression of poor communication.
With respect to the property’s marketing price, it was not set above market value to mislead potential buyers. The intention was to test the market, which is a common and legitimate approach in property sales. We had already informed you that higher offers had been made on the property which you within your rights had chosen to distrust.
We always aim to act in the best interests of our clients and to be transparent throughout the process, your offer was thought to be strong and appreciated given your position, though ultimately it did not meet the vendor’s expectations.
We’re grateful for your continued interest in the property and for recognising the effort made by Lee to address your concerns.

GoogleI viewed some houses and ultimately purchased a house with Intercounty at the end of 2025 and they were brilliant.
They were friendly, honest and reliable. Ashley was excellent and worked efficiently to progress the purchase. He provided us with regular updates as well as honest, trustworthy advice and information.
When viewing, they had lots of information about the properties they showed us and were able to answer most of our questions there and then. They updated us quickly about anything they were unsure about.
Overall, I found them honest, open and reliable, and would use them again in future.

GoogleI 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.
