Stirling Ackroyd Guildford have been super supportive and helped me in my search for a suitable rental property. Kitty, Ruby and the Guildford Team have restored my faith in Guildford Lettings agency after the appalling treatment I have received from some of the other agencies in town.

Really efficient service. I’d enquired about a property that fit our criteria perfectly but that was not available anymore. I had a call very soon after my enquiry with Ruby Franklin and when she said that unfortunately it wasn’t available she immediately suggested an alternative that was just as nice. She got me booked in straight away for a viewing and even managed to fit me in when I had to change the time last minute. Great experience

Kitty was especially supportive, and she handled my situation sensitively and with patience. Nothing was too much trouble, and she was professional at all times. When Kitty wasn't in the office, the rest of the team were able to help. A positive, supportive and professional experience from the moment I contacted them to securing the property I wanted. Thanks all.

She was very friendly and genuine, and made the whole experience comfortable and easy. She took the time to show me around the property and answer my questions. She even kindly offered me a ride back home, which made the whole viewing feel very relaxed rather than rushed. I really appreciate her professionalism and positive attitude. Thanks, Ruby! :)

I cannot thank Ruby enough for helping me to find the best place for myself and my dog to live. From the start, she communicated amazingly, gave me options and actually listened to what I needed. I never had to wonder what was going on in the process as she kept me up to date the whole time and genuinely wanted the best for us rather than just pushing us toward a property.
Thank you so much Ruby for helping us start a new chapter with as little stress as possible!

My name is Dinil Kumar, and I received assistance from Sterling Ackroyd while searching for accommodation in Guildford. The service provided by the agent Arti Nuzi was excellent. He/She was very communicative throughout the process, provided clear details about the tenancies, and shared several good housing options in the Guildford area.
But, I made a decision to accept accommodation offered by the University of Surrey due to its proximity to campus. However, I truly appreciate the support and professionalism shown during my search, and it was a very positive experience.

Jack from Stirling Ackroyd has been amazing throughout our house sale. His professionalism, understanding and work ethic have been 2nd to none. Always answered calls, returned calls and replied to emails incredibly quickly. Helped me to chase up solicitors and the chain. Even on his day off, I was able to contact him or his colleague Martin was also fully aware of the case. I’ve used several estate agents in the past and none of them have ever come close to Jack and Martin at Stirling Ackroyd. I cannot rate them highly enough. Selling a house can be incredibly stressful, but Jack made sure the process was as smooth as possible.

I recently had the pleasure of dealing with Kieran Thomas & Mark Sugarman for a mutual file / sale. I think in this market it’s very quick to get frustrated / have doubts, especially in the run up towards Christmas, but these 2 chaps helped me massively get a property sale pushed through, always picked up the phone, and delivered on what they were going to do. I don’t think we would have completed this side of the new year without these - a credit to the branch, you’ve made the sellers incredibly happy. Thank you both!

Jack and Martyn were supportive through an incredibly frustrating and drawn out transaction. As a buyer, they were always at the end of the phone, either for me to grumble to about the process or chase their client (made up of a multitude of corporate service providers). There were times that maybe they could have pushed harder to speak to people higher up the hierarchy chain to make things happen or challenge the BS coming out of the sellers advisors for months on end, but I understand that they work for the hand that feeds them (their corporate client - rather than the buyer!). I would buy through them again and would appoint on sale.

Stirling Ackroyd is really accommodating to students. Great experience so far.
Hannah was helping me while I was looking for a house and she made the whole process easy. She sent me a detailed video tour straight away since I couldn’t make the viewing, answered every question clearly, and replied quickly even on her day off. She stayed patient, understood my situation, and kept the communication simple.
If you want an agent who follows up, keeps you informed, and doesn’t leave you waiting, Hannah is the one. I really appreciated how reliable and on top of things she was.

I recently faced a difficult situation where the tenant in the property we were supposed to move into refused to vacate. I reached out to Stirling Ackoryd, and I’m so glad I did!
A huge thank you to Arti, who went above and beyond to help my family find a new home quickly so we wouldn’t be left without one. He was extremely professional, patient, and thorough in explaining all the available options. He kept in touch regularly, checking on our progress and offering great advice throughout.
Thanks also to Alex and Richard for their support and guidance in dealing with the situation.
Even though I didn’t end up renting a property through Stirling Ackoryd (as the tenant eventually agreed to vacate from the original property I was supposed to move), I’m genuinely impressed with their professionalism, care, and customer service.
Highly recommend Stirling Ackoryd for anyone looking for a trustworthy and supportive letting agency!

Brilliant Service from Tarkan in Guildford!
I had a brilliant experience working with Tarkan at Stirling Ackroyd in Guildford! From start to finish, he was incredibly helpful and professional. He gave excellent advice and took the time to clearly explain everything about their NDO product, which really helped me understand my options and make the right decision. What impressed me most was his communication, while no other agent even got back to me, Tarkan called right away and kept me updated every step of the way.
Even though I didn’t end up taking a property with Stirling Ackroyd as we decided to go ahead with another one, the above still applies, Tarkan’s service was outstanding, and he truly went above and beyond. I’d highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and dedicated estate agent in Guildford!

I had the pleasure of being assisted with Hannah at Stirling. They are very quick with their responses and helped me through my referencing process. Always responsive to emails and phone call in a very timely manner. As a doctor it is a challenge at times to find the right time to schedule viewings etc. but the team have been very accommodating and helpful. Lovely team!

She was professional, friendly, and genuinely cared about making sure I found the right place. Would definitely recommend!

I would like to thank Arti Nuzi for his friendliness and professionalism in my interactions with Stirling Ackroyd. Although it had to be cancelled due to a fault neither party were liable for, I had a viewing with Arti and proceeded with the property initially. Arti was hand down the best agent I have ever viewed a property with, you could tell he genuinely cared about performing his job well. Even in subsequent calls to rectify the situation, he remained super bright and friendly which really stood out from the many other agents I have conversed with in the past. He’s great at his job and I would 100% recommend!

Absolutely awful experience with Stirling Ackroyd Guildford. I rented a flat in Farnborough through them, and it was a nightmare from start to finish. They clearly didn’t do any proper checks on the property before handing it over — within weeks I was dealing with severe mold, a leaking ceiling, a broken boiler in the middle of winter, and even a rodent infestation. The place was completely unfit to live in, yet they dragged their feet every step of the way when it came to sorting anything out.
Communication was terrible, promises were made and never kept, and I constantly had to chase them for updates. It honestly felt like they cared more about protecting the landlord than their tenant’s safety or wellbeing. I wouldn’t trust them with a garden shed, let alone somewhere to live.
If you value your health, sanity, and basic living conditions, avoid Stirling Ackroyd Guildford at all costs.

My property is managed by Amy Robertson of Stirling Ackroyd. After a few bumps and hurdles with her predecessors, Amy took over the area portfolio where my property is located. Amy has been truly amazing and resolved every concern raised but best yet she is always a step ahead and has the contacts ready too. Amy has been my first property manager to advise of legal certifications a month in advance along with quotes in the same email. I have never had to go back and forth with Amy as her expertise and knowledge is exceptional. Thank you Amy!

Five stars! Particularly for Jack - he was brilliant from start to finish. If he hadn't gone out of his way to arrange viewings and get through all of the barriers we faced throughout the process, I wouldn't have my house now - so I am very grateful to him. I have dealt with many estate agents over the years and have often had to put up with poor service one way or another but genuinely couldn't fault these guys. Jack was always happy to help, always made time and it never felt like a problem. Thank you so much :)

E Collinson
I would discourage using this letting agent if possible.
I will preface this review by saying that all of the staff members I spoke to over the phone and in person were perfectly friendly and informative, but this doesn’t mitigate the experiences I have had whilst renting through them.
Whilst searching for a house, I found that the member of staff assisting me was very attentive, proactive and accommodating. However, upon moving in, this changed quite quickly, which I will summarise below relating to my tenancy from June 2023 to June 2024.
· I was not given an inventory for the room I rented until nearly three weeks after I moved in, which was provided only because I followed up on behalf of myself and my housemates. The Property Manager was not aware that one had been done when I asked for it. While I am aware it is not mandatory to provide one, it felt irresponsible that this was not at least offered, and that our designated contact was not aware of its existence until asked.
· Repairs that were reported took a significant amount of time to be addressed. For example, a defective lock on a bathroom door was not repaired until the beginning of June 2024, despite being reported multiple times during the tenancy. Another example would be a toilet seat being left unreplaced for weeks, and was marked as resolved by a property manager without any communication.
· The property manager seemed to no longer be involved from February 2024, and other individuals began to email regarding concerns with the house. This was without any clear communication as to who the responsibility had been transferred to, so there was no clear first point of contact.
· Inconsistent communication between myself and other tenants, for example one being told that Property Management were waiting for a response to an enquiry from the landlord, and another being told that the enquiry had been resolved.
· Tenants in the property I lived in were not notified of any deductions to the deposit within 10 working days, despite this being in the tenancy agreement, and when this was challenged, I was told it isn’t always possible for them to honour this - why put this in a contract? The money was only returned when I raised a dispute with the deposit protection service.
I would add that these issues are only a snapshot of the ones we had. Do not use this agent if you have any other option.

Starting from I found the apartment, it was a pleasant journey with Stirling Ackroyd. They are very professional, helpful and respond to me promptly. But with moving forward, they can do nothing with details, such as clarifying the supplier of electricity. And when the property has issues, I have to chase the landlord, they could do nothing to help. They only appears at the beginning and the end of the tenancy contract.

We had a bad communication experience during letting our first apartment in UK.
The agent just disappeared in the next day after we have sent the holding deposit. We’ve got an automated email which says that for the next 3 weeks the agent is on vacation and will respond only after vacation.
Okay, I understand it is summer time, people need vacations, but why not to even mention someone who will work with us on the next steps throughout the rest of the process?
We tried to call someone by the phone on the website, but if I want to talk to someone I need to spend 2 days of calling during a day to someone pick up. The other agents are not motivated to work with us and answer our questions because sure thing, we are not their customers and they won’t get commission on answering our questions. If we email some agent directly, they will never respond, only by calling 100 times. To say that I’m angry working with these guys is to say nothing. For the last 3 weeks living in UK this is the worst customer service I’ve faced.

Editing after your team’s reply:
No one answers either phone number, totally unprofessional and this is over a week now! No, I will not email you. I was advised that this urgent matter should not be in writing! You have had more than fourteen complaints by neighbours about your tenant who is constantly breaking the law. Yet you have only replied to one neighbour. Your tenant has two police crime numbers related to his actions, yet you still refuse to return calls!
Why is it impossible to contact any of your agents by phone? No call back, are your Guildford offices closed temporarily? It is an urgent matter and no, before you leave a generic reply, we are not tenants, nor Landlords! One of your tenants has been reported repeatedly and yet you show zero compassion to those affected by being proactive and doing the job you are paid to do. We will be escalating this through other channels due to your lack of response.

Myself and my daughter had been to various viewings from multiple estate agents. Where in contrast, other agents had been less informative and that of a “typical” estate agent. I had found Ella to be very informative, and she has a down to earth and genuine manner.I didn’t feel rushed in the viewing, which is especially helpful when you have a little one! Unfortunately I had not been able to LET the property due to personal circumstances, naturally i felt really disappointed by this, However Alex had also been very helpful in communication and trustworthy.
In comparison to other estate agents within the area , I would definitely recommend Stirling Ackroyd, Understandably the whole industry is a competitive business, but I had found this agency to be more person-centred.

Only the first meeting is good
Throughout the service. I didn't feel professional service. Contracts come and go. Two years after the first deal. Send me a one-year contract. And for a ridiculous reason. Tell me to let me sign for a year first. Their professionalism makes me question it. The correct contract was sent the second time. It was changed to 24 months. When I'm done signing. They want to change it again. I don't know what the point of me signing a contract and paying a deposit is. Another one. He's been calling me every week for the last few weeks. I can't do a better job. I question their professionalism. Questioning their service to foreigners and people of color is different. I felt like I was being racially abused. About this thing. I'll keep reporting to their company and the authorities. These are their problems. I proposed a solution. They didn't. They told me the deposit wasn't refundable

Viewings process was professional and quick to organise, and they actually rang me 45 min before the appointment to confirm - nice to know your time isnt being wasted!
Allways pick up the phone, but like all letting agents, a bit disorganised as everyone is running their own thing.
If you manage to catch the person running your flat they do get on problems fairly quick.
Szymon fixed a bizzare paperwork issue in a day flat for me once I got a hold of the guy.
Not lived with them yet so will update this in the future ?

Terrible… I’m staying in one of their properties for more than a month now, I have reported more than a dozen issues on their maintenance website and only got repair for one issue. Keep hearing the We’’ll deal with that but day 34 and still no other repairs… I also saw that they reply to bad reviews with an email address that you can send an email with your issues and get help with any problems and even after sending an email there I still don’t have a respond a week after… Additionally when I moved I got spammed to leave them a good review and boy am I glad I didn’t… I’ve been staying in student accommodations for the last 3 years and my experience with those agents has been the worse in terms of property maintenance. I might be in a property that they don’t care about but still I don’t feel like I get my moneys worth…

I have been letting my property with Stirling Ackroyd since 2010.
I originally used them in conjunection with Foxtons to show the property. But Stirling ackroyd repetadley achieved better rates, with better tennants so I stopped using foxtons and use them exclusively.
They are excellent in manging all aspects of property rental. The tennants are well vetted and have all been good to work with. Proprty rents quickly every year, months in advance of the renewal giving me plenty of time to prepare. Never had any issues with there paperwork management
In particular, I work with Richard Bicknell one of the branch managers who always looks after any issues I have. This way of working is so important to have a "go to guy". It means that I dont spend time chasing the correct person. Just contact Richard and its sorted.

He has always been able to find that happy balanced landlord-tenant relationship and ensure that it is always a win-win situation. Richard has also I feel managed to train and retain an excellent team and has connections across the SA sites.
Thank you Richard for your ongoing support and diligence :)

I have worked with Richard Bicknell and his team for some years, and have always found them helpful and professional. They have identified new tenants swiftly, often well before the end of tenancies, minimising gaps in between. They also take seriously one's questions and concerns.

We own two rental flats - one in Guildford and one in Woking. About five years ago we were unhappy with our existing rental management company and switched to Stirling Ackroyd and are so glad we made the change.
They are a very professional outfit at both sites always giving us good advice and are good at coming back to us when we have questions.
We highly recommend them.

We have been working with Richard and Alex in the Guildford Branch for a number of years and have found them to be excellent with their guidance on tenants and market conditions. They have been excellent in finding us tenants to ensure no void periods. They are quick to respond and deal with any issues that may arise.
They have an excellent support team , including Christine, Darcy and others.
We look forward to a continued working relationship with Richard, Alex and the team in the future.

I'm involved with Sterling Ackroyd on 2 levels, one as a landlord and two as a Gas Safe engineer.
Firstly , as a landlord Richard and the team are always professional and thorough when finding a tenant for my property.
They are acutely sensitive to the market and always attain top rents and regularly give me current updates via an e-mail.
Secondly, as a gas engineer I conduct landlords gas safety checks and issue certificates. They are always proficient and knowledgeable in the gas industry.
I can highly recommend Sterling Ackroyd whether for rental or sales.

So far I've had a great experience with Stirling Ackroyd and specifically one of their employees, Ella. She has gone above and beyond from the start and always upholds a professional and comforting approach when dealing with my queries and concerns. It’s been great having Ella handle and care for my house move.

Richard Bicknell and his team have been managing my rental properties in Guildford for a number of years now and I have to say, the service I have received, has been first class and continues to exceed expectations. I live in London so without the excellent service they provide I would have a lot of commuting to do! I opted for full management and I can honestly say that Stirling Ackroyd have everything covered. I have never had to deal with tenants directly which has its plus points!
Richard Bicknell, without doubt is one of the most proactive human beings I know. He offers a professional and efficient service - always delivered in a personable manner, as is the case with his team members too. They are a pleasure to work with.
I would have to say that Richard personally goes "over and beyond," offers a customer focussed approach and is very personable. A phone call can resolve all matters. Not only does he "find suitable tenants and manage" but he will have conversations about the condition of the property being rented and suggest ways of improving (in the future), in a managed and viable way. So for example, after securing tenants for one of my properties, Richard suggested a small refurbishment, which, after agreement, he managed to get booked in and carried out on the back of tenants leaving and just prior to new tenants moving in - so no loss of rent! I was not able to visit my property after it had been refurbished because new tenants were looking to move in straight away, so Richard took pictures and videos, which he sent to me! And of course the improvement will more than likely, secure a better rent going forward!
I have never had to chase Stirling Ackroyd to ensure that new tenants are lined up year in year out. Richard and his team actively start to market the property before current tenants are due to move out.
I strongly recommend Stirling Ackroyd if you have a property you are wanting to let out. If this property is in Guildford, definitely you should endeavour to have a conversation with Richard Bicknell, he is a godsend!
Cheers Richard - keep up the good work!

Thanks to Richard and other helpful people at Sterling and Ackroyd, Guildford, we found tenants almost immediately and the letting process was easy. We are grateful for the service especially because we live abroad and we could not have done it without their help.

As a landlord with a number of student properties in the Guildford area I have been working with Richard and his team at Stirling Ackroyd for many years now, and have only good things to say about the continued service I receive. The team are very attentive, responsive and have been very quick to source and sign up new tenants, often months before the competition event start to think about marketing property. I’m very grateful for their continued expertise and have no hesitation in recommending them to other potential landlords and tenants alike.

I found Stirling Ackroyd while buying my first property in Guildford. From the moment I walked into their offices they were extremely professional.
It is a pleasure to deal with Richard Bicknell, the Executive Lettings Director. Richard is fastidious and knowledgeable about the market and always willing to provide guidance. A big thank you to you and your team for exceptional service and successfully finding tenants.
I will recommend Stirling Ackroyd without hesitation.

I currently go back to China but I need to find a place at Guildford. Their work efficiency is amazing. I emailed them to arrange a virtual tour and Ella Davidge responded me the next day. Although the fist place was not available, she gave me great recommendations and Szymon assisted me through the referencing check process. I only spent one week to finish all the steps. Thanks for their support!

Darcey and Christine have been wonderful in helping us find a new home in Guildford, especially since we are moving from London and don't know the area too well, it's been great to have their local expertise. Their friendliness and warmth has gone a long way - not like other agents I've dealt with in 7 years of renting! Szymon the lettings administrator has also been super helpful with our referencing, as we've needed guarantors and have been needing help with our documents etc. Thank you all, a very pleasant experience - you are all doing amazing work to help renters in a very tricky market!

It's helpful to know you'll be replied to promptly. It puts you at ease. Overall I recommend

Me and my group of friends were looking for student housing and dealt with Ella Davidge. She was beyond helpful and friendly with every interaction, found us numerous houses and was always available to contact for help. Unfortunately, it looks like the group’s majority vote favoured halls but should we change our mind, I would definitely look for Ella to get the job done. Highly recommend!

Worst experience ever from a current tenant.
When I moved in the house was not clean a bit; it was full of dust and spiders webs everywhere. It looked like it hasn’t been cleaned in months. The oven and wardrobe has been broken since I moved in and I reported it many times and no one is bothered to come fix the stuff. The boiler and heating system hasn’t been working for about 10 days. I can’t shower and I have a fever. I don’t know what to do to make them fix the issues.

Booked a viewing for a house with Stirling Ackroyd in Guildford.
Spent 25 minutes driving to the address to have a call at the exact time of the viewing saying they’d be 45 minutes late.
Really disappointing and a waste of time. Avoid

We dealt with Christine who was the consummate professional. She was very knowledgeable and helped us navigate our way through requiring a guarantor when other agents had refused to consider it. Unfortunately, through no fault of hers, we did not secure a rental property with Christine but I would absolutely recommend her and will most certainly seek her out again should the need arise. She restored my faith in estate agents which had been seriously dented!

I really don’t know how this company is still going, there is no communication between the staff and definitely no communication between the agency and the tenants. We moved into the property and no proper hand over was completed and we were phoned on the morning of our move in to be told we needed to buy a fridge freezer which we were told was included in the property, no apology was given and no proper information passed on to us about the actual move in process or who would meet us at the property. Was told we couldn’t enter the property until 4pm due to it being cleaned but when arriving at the property found hair in the plugs still and toilets filled with lime scale and the shower covered in mould .. not very clean in my opinion. We were left without heating and hot water for the first week we were in which with 2 kids under 2 is not helpful!! Whilst in the property the agency had awful communication and took forever to sort out any issues we had which resulted in us having to go directly to the landlord to get anything sorted, this included being without an oven for over a month during Christmas. We have now moved out of the property in September and have yet to even received a phone call back after calling them over 30 times in regards to an update on the refund of our deposit. We have emailed the head of property management and has even been escalated to the director , although I don’t know how true this is as we have not received any sort of email or phone call. We sent our confirmation on the 18th October to receive of deposit back and our landlord also emailed on 18th as well. Emails ignored again and the head of property management had gone on holiday and not bothered to change her email to out of office so no emails were redirected, just sat in an inbox until she returned. Not setting a good example as a manager in my personal opinion.. Any time we call them all property managers are conveniently out or in a meeting, probably more interested getting the money of new tenants and getting them in than they are the current ones which are ignored and forgotten about. Here we are 7 weeks later and still no deposit and no communication!! I never post or complain but we really are been taken for mugs by this company!! I rang again today and was told I would have a phone call back even after it being marked as urgent , I didn’t hold my breathe on it as I knew no one would phone back and you guessed it right NO PHONE CALL BACK AGAIN!!! If you want to choose an agency that like to throw you in a property take your money and ignore you then townends/stirling ackroyd are your guys!!!! Absolutely shocking and disgusting!! The WORST estate agents I have ever known!!! I’m hoping by posting this they might actually pull their finger out and respond to me and give me my money back!

Simply atrocious from a tenant point of view. 18 months without a curtain pole after replacing the windows. Company did nothing. Staff do not have a basic grasp of the requirements of a letting agent. My advice would be to go for a different letting agency if at all possible, as I have no good things to say about this one.

Outstanding and professional service. I really want to thank you Tarkan Akkus, who had prepared several of properties and took time to visiting with us on the first met for well compared.
Also he has provided us a lot of useful information, although we cannot easy to make a discussion on our first met.
Tarkan is the only one who didn’t forget us, he remembered our requirements and needs, tried to contact us again as soon as he found a comfortable and suitable housing for us. Tarkan is a kindly and trusted agency.

This is the worst letting service I have seen in 3 years time in UK. The Guildford branch is awful. Your agent was really unprofessional. He promised us things while viewing which were never provided. We moved in today and the house is in unacceptable condition. After contacting him, he has stated that he never said those things which were promised to us while viewing. While talking to him on call, he is always in hurry and cut the call on very first pause. I have never expected this kind of service from your company. Please provide relevant trainings to your agent and resolve our issue.
