10th Oct 2026 (20 days ago)Terrible service.<br>Had 2 viewings with them around the city and had rushed through them in minutes. Little to no conversation or explanation of the properties.<br>For one property we were left to wonder around the<br>building on our own because the agent had to do another viewing. Walking around a new building, without any access , felt like we were trying to break in.<br>Just not a great way to show people around and a total showcase of disinterest.
19th Jun 2025 (1 year ago)So far so good. Sale agreed but takes 5 months to complete. See what happens
9th Apr 2021 (5 years ago)Decent experience. House sold for less than they valued it for, but generally good service. Chose Franca thinking she would be good during the final (post offer but pre contract exchange) stage in the process, but it's someone else at Philip James that handles that side of things (who also seems good, but worth bearing in mind)!
1st Jun 2025 (1 year ago)Excellent service! Always at the other end of the phone for support! Brandon always goes above and beyond! So happy we chosen Hunters to sell or home.
23rd Jun 2026 (18 weeks ago)My estate agent ghosted me!<br><br>I listed my two-bed flat for sale with Melissa Berry in May. It was my first time selling a property, and thankfully Melissa seemed helpful and friendly at the valuation, although she did seem to take my lead on pricing the property rather than guiding me towards a price that she thought would be a best fit. A couple of weeks later she came to take photos – and that was, sadly, the last I saw or heard of her.<br><br>The property had been on the market for a couple of weeks when I emailed to check in, and asked whether there’d been any interest. I did get a reply from a sales agent called Geraldine, saying that someone was interested in viewing the property but wouldn’t be able to visit for a couple of weeks; I replied straight away with my availability and asked what sort of time the viewing would go ahead. No response.<br><br>A week later, I emailed again to ask if the viewing was going ahead. Again, I was ignored. I tried calling, and left messages. Finally, after waiting another week, I emailed one last time to say that I was going to list the flat with another agent and asking Melissa/Geraldine to remove it from their listings. I expected a reply to that, at least – but instead they quietly took the property off their website, again without replying to my email.<br><br>I wasted over a month trying to work with Melissa Berry, only to be completely ghosted and treated as though I didn’t exist. Whether it was something I said or the business has just taken on more clients than it can handle, I recommend avoiding them unless you enjoy the silent treatment: there are plenty of other agencies out there.
8th Aug 2025 (1 year ago)Excellent…. Great service.
1st Jul 2026 (17 weeks ago)Ok, so this is going to be a tricky review to be positive about. I want to be as honest and helpful to people reading this review, rather than just say I am annoyed at something and give it a one star. If you don’t have much time to read through this, then please read this headline: I massively regret using Thornley groves. They were genuinely awful, barely reached any level of competence, I ended up LOSING money, and it was hugely stressful. I only rented a place. I cannot imagine ever buying or selling with them. Please read the other reviews carefully and don’t dismiss them as I did. I wish you the best in whatever estate agents you choose. This review is my opinion and not meant to affect business with Thornley Groves in any way. OK, on with the detail. First, the good parts. They had a lot of choice and were quick to get me viewings (I did them through video or pictures) and were happy as campers to ‘get me in’ and on their books. Yep, that’s it. That’s all I have. The not so good (not even the worst parts yet). I dealt with the Deansgate (Whitworth street) branch and with an absolutely abysmal person, Peter. If you do choose Thornley Groves and get assigned Peter, do or say whatever you can to work with someone else. I am not sure how to put this without being cruel, but I also owe it to my (soon to be) Manchester neighbours to be honest. This is my honest opinion. Peter is, without a doubt, the worst person I have ever dealt with professionally. Genuinely. That is not even hyperbole. He is inadequate, lazy, afraid of basic tasks, unable or unwilling to do anything even at the bare minimum level, and honestly just embarrassing as a fellow human. He wouldn’t return emails. Ever. In fact, he did but only when it came to sending them money or signing a document. Anything that needed any effort or work, he literally ignored. He is like a toddler but in an adult body. Simply unable to operate at any sort of adult level. I had to call and call and call. I even got the train from London to the office so I could literally use my own mobile phone and dial numbers to connect with others, so he could talk to them. He used my phone because he couldn’t make a phone call for himself. (He also claimed he tried but could never get it to work, but it took me literally three minutes. Genuinely, I have the call log!). He didn’t give me the correct keys to move in. Once we got through it, Peter gave me the front door key and I asked if there were any others. Mail keys, apartment building keys, etc. He assured me no. Literally all keys were needed. It took me 3 weeks and speaking with other people at Thornle Groves to get the window key (still waiting on), apartment building/trash room key, and mailbox key. Even when I collected the keys, I overheard him talking to another person that very day, just before me, saying he gave the wrong keys to him. Also, they don’t tell you who your service providers are. I spent a few weeks tracking down who I need to pay bills to. You are given a list of UK service providers and that’s it, just figure it out for yourself. Lastly, the goodlord referencing company were just as bad as Thornley groves. They sent so many referring emails to my employer (they only need one but sent around 6 over the course of weeks) I had the owner of the company asking me what was going on. They took weeks longer than needed. It cost me around 500GBP in hotels for the delay, and they lied, multiple times about things they were doing. One lie was to say that my company had never replied (even though the owner and head of HR showed me the replies themselves). Thornley Groves chose to use that specific referencing company. Their behaviour also reflects on them. If you have read this far, then fair play, this one was a long review. The thing is, I don’t believe this is a one off. I am not just some random person with a grudge, I am like you. Looking for a new place, wanting it to go as smoothly as possible. I have all my ducks in a row, great credit, good job, charm and charisma (well, maybe not), and it was still a nightmare choosing Thornley Groves and, ergh, dare I say his name, Peter. The abomination they call Peter! I wish I had took the other 1-star reviews more seriously. I thought they were just some disgruntled people and it would be fine. It wasn’t. I deeply deeply regret ever speaking to Thornely Groves.
5th Aug 2026 (12 weeks ago)Martin & Co recently sold my house. I was very impressed with Earl & his staff who very professional when dealing with all issues relating to the sale. They were lovely to deal with.<br>I would definitely use this company in the future.
23rd Oct 2026 (7 days ago)We've recently sold our house with Maurice Kilbride and both Maurice and Joe were brilliant throughout. They made the process so easy and worked alongside us to get the best value for our house. They had great communication and help whenever we needed it. Thank you very much!
26th Oct 2026 (4 days ago)Jackson-Stops service throughout our buying process was supportive, informative and professional. The purchase was not straightforward, it was dual agent, the vendor was a receiver and consequently a lot of the information you would normally expect to receive was simply not there. Anthony was able to fill the gaps and make pragmatic suggestions when we hit blockers. He also repeatedly moved the vendor's solicitors along to address outstanding points to meet our timeframes. We felt like we'd received a genuine service rather than just being in a process.
14th Oct 2026 (16 days ago)Absolutely superb from start to finish which I think was about 7 weeks<br>Sold on the first day after a busy open day and sailed through to completion without a hitch<br>Friendly approachable professional team and we couldnt fault them<br>Thankyou Emma,Sarah & all the team you made is so easy and always with a smile.
12th Sep 2025 (1 year ago)Edward Mellor have so much knowledge of the local area in Woodley, we felt very confident with them taking on the sale and our house sold within about a week. Super quick at getting it listed and efficient with organising viewings so we couldn’t really ask for more!
21st Jan 2026 (9 mo. ago)Helpful staff with good communication, fees slightly higher than competitors but quick sale- 13th Oct 2025 (1 year ago)Reduced it within a week of being on the market so just shows they got the valuation so wrong. Communication was very poor. Only had two viewings first I had to chase feedback. Never given feedback from the last viewing. When I gave notice I was emailed to say 3 viewings had taken place. They had not. We have changed estate agents as a result of poor service.
6th Mar 2026 (7 mo. ago)Good communications and relevant viewers
28th May 2026 (22 weeks ago)Worst service and they are scammers. If you pay rent on time they wont fix anything and took my entire deposit. Had a balacony issue for 4 years and no one even came to fix it says the balacony door manufactorer is from another area
19th Mar 2024 (2 years ago)I had an amazing working experience with Rebacca Scott, As the director of a cleaning company, communication was highly professional and prompt. I highly recommend Cherry Picked Properties
16th Oct 2026 (14 days ago)We bought our house through Wainwrights. Rachel worked out our needs and found us the perfect house, after a few false starts. Great communication also, from Layla, keeping us updated regularly, even when our selling agent and solicitors, both of whom we were paying, couldn't seem to communicate with anyone at all, until they were chased. Wainwrights guided us through 8 months of sheer hell, at no cost to us, as the buyers. Why is it so difficult to buy a house in 2026 ? I'm sure it was easier with quill and ink !
8th Sep 2026 (7 weeks ago)When the agent came round to value to vale the property it was very relaxed. They were no pressure in selling and explained the process and answered any queries putting us at ease considering this was the first time selling what was our first family home. Once the house was listed, Reside dealt with all the viewings and fit it around us generally conducting group viewings so it was less intrusive on our family life. Once sold they kept in regular contact with us and the buyers to help the sale complete.
11th Mar 2026 (7 mo. ago)Clear concise communication and quick response to queries
19th Sep 2026 (6 weeks ago)The team at Eric Clarke have been exceptional. A special mention to Debbie who conducted the viewings and Colleen the contact in the office. All round a positive home selling experience.
