Harwoods - Commercial have been named a Trusted Agent 2026 Gold winner. Out of more than 20,000 offices benchmarked, the data — real customers, real reviews, real results in Wellingborough — earned them the accolade. Unlike most industry awards, winners are independently verified and no agent pays to enter.
Check which platform a rating comes from
The award methodology considers feedback across several review platforms. A rating displayed beside a Gold office may describe a single platform, rather than the full assessment. Follow the named source and compare like with like; do not combine unrelated scores into a new rating.

Why a review total needs a closer read
Review volume contributes evidence, but the programme also considers review quality. A large total does not explain Gold status on its own. Read what customers describe, including the service they used, before deciding how relevant those experiences are to your move.

What this 2026 award does and does not tell you
Gold reflects the assessment behind the 2026 award, using the evidence available at award time. It does not certify today's star rating or guarantee the outcome of a sale or let. Current profile ratings can change. Use the award as background and read current customer feedback before choosing an office.

No fees, no entries, no submissions for Gold
Gold status is calculated the same way as every other tier: from performance data and independent review data across more than 20,000 UK offices. There is no application form and no cost to be considered, which is what separates it from most industry award schemes.

The Trusted Agent 2026 winners were revealed at ICC Newport on 7 July 2026, after a benchmark of more than 20,000 UK estate agent offices on performance data (how well agents sell and let homes in their area and other key factors like time to sell and fall-throughs) and customer-satisfaction data (reviews on platforms like Google, Facebook, Trustpilot and Feefo).
