Sara and Stuart from Story of Home were superb at selling our house. Experienced, smart, and calm under pressure, they work really well together and enabled us to get a great price for our house. They held our hand through each stage of the process from the amazing photo-shoot to the quick round of viewings to the tricky negotiations before we got it over the line. They completely understood what we wanted and supported us in getting it. We literally couldn't have done it without them. I'd wholeheartedly recommend.... Read more

He is thorough and professional and I would have no hesitation using him or his company again. I would think this is the best agency out there.... Read more

Story of Home is an exceptional agency—one that you encounter rarely in life. Unlike buying a pair of trainers, selling or purchasing a house can be stressful and exhausting. Our experience working with Stuart for the sale of our house was nothing short of great. These professionals don’t merely list your house and wait for inquiries; they actively support you, provide updates, and offer reassurance.
The most challenging part of our journey was finding our next home after losing the one we had set our sights on. While typical agents might pressure you to make a decision, Story of Home took a different approach. They proactively reached out to all the residents in the neighborhood we were interested in, inviting them to consider selling their homes. It’s akin to selling a pair of trainers on eBay and having someone else search for the perfect replacement pair on your behalf.
As someone who isn’t an agent but has worked with them in the past, I can confidently say that Story of Home provides a ***** service that goes above and beyond. Stuart and Matt exceeded our expectations, and their entire team deserves kudos for their outstanding work.
Thank you!... Read more

The team at Story of Home are a joy to work with.
Having dealt with hundreds of Estate Agents over the years, it is refreshing to deal with a company that is progressive, organised, imaginative and above all an ethos of providing clients the very best service.
The Estate Agency business has, in the 2020's become dominated by many vast corporate Agents. These Agents are mostly purely driven by fees and do not always have the best interest of the client at heart.
If you are looking for a reliable, honest, pragmatic, personal, professional, imaginative and professional Estate Agent to work with then look no further than the team at Story of Home.... Read more

We have moved from Germany to London couple months ago and were very lucky to have found a flat via Story of Home.
From Day 1 / viewing of the apartment, SoH has been incredibly transparent, honest, friendly and helpful in every matter. They do not act like your typical rental agency / property manager, but really try to achieve the best outcome for tenant and owner in a very efficient process.
We are highly recommending SoH to everyone!... Read more

Story of Home, very professional outfit. The add prepared for my apartment was excelent (great pics) and the story of my apartment was personalized and gave a reader the feeling of the place and the area. The offer was procured quickly (just a few viewings). Stuart was a star. Without him and his involvement the deal would take ages but he was pushing my lawyers and others to deliver necessary documents. But what was the most important for me was that he cared, he kept me informed at all times about the progress and issues when they arose. I did not have to chase and he was always responsive and available. You can see that he cares about his clients and the business. It is not only money but it is also the pride that he takes from delivery of the best service. If I buy another place in the UK for myself or my son, I will certainly use him again.... Read more

I've spent an extended period of time (multiple years) home-hunting in London, and Mathew from Story of Home was by far the most knowledgeable and informative real estate agent I worked with (across three countries). Not only did he know every detail about the properties we saw together, but the reports he produced for me thereafter (without me requesting them), and the analytics included in them, were second-to-none. I really believe the reports produced by Mathew and Story of Home have all the information every potential buyer wants to have but cannot fine, and therefore does miracles towards putting a difficult decision (what home to purchase) in a broader market context. Mathew went above and beyond for me and differentiated himself way beyond the crowd, and for whatever real estate needs I have in London (and maybe beyond) in the future I will be returning to Mathew....

Story of Home is a hugely impressive service that has delivered exceptional results for me in a very short space of time despite the tough property market. Stuart and Mathew are clearly very experienced property professionals and both have consistently impressed on every level since I first contacted them with a view to selling my property.
My property was beautifully photographed and then marketed superbly to attract some very strong interest. Their invaluable initial appraisal and overview led to some very high quality offers that proved they were spot on with their initial advice and demonstrated that they understood the market better than their competitors . Everything to do with my property sale was available for me to see on their very impressive web portal which showed my property details and an overview and all the offers I had received .
Stuart and Mathew are very likable and approachable people with a rare personal touch that allows them to be constantly available to offer great advice or help at each stage . When I asked for a quick completion they took everything in their stride and performed brilliantly smoothing out kinks and bumps with all parties so we completed in a superbly quick time .
I cannot recommend Story of Home highly enough as Stuart and Mathew have delivered on every level for me ....Story of Home is an exceptionally polished personal service.
Thank You both very much .... Read more

I’ve recently completed the sale of a property being sold by Story of Home. From the outset the communication from Stuart was constant and helpful. He worked hard to negotiate a deal that both myself and the vendor were happy with and, when potential issues arose, he was quick to suggest ways in which we could overcome them. A proper estate agency which actually works hard to get a sale through rather than just sitting back and waiting for it to happen, as so many do these days. From sale agreed to completion is less than 3 weeks; the fastest timescale in which I have ever purchased a property by a distance.... Read more
