Phoebe Penrose, Manning Stainton

Phoebe was our liaison with the vendor throughout the sale process. Both ourselves and the vendor were on holiday in the Caribbean for a good chunk of time making contact difficult. Despite this Phoebe kept us up to date at all times, answering our questions/queries very quickly and was professional, friendly and polite at all times. A job well done.
Many Thanks
David and Dawn Smith

There were some overall issues with how Manning Stainton handled the sale of my property, but these were promptly resolved by head office.
Emma Hart really held the sale together through some very challenging moments and I hugely appreciate that! Her communication was efficient and regular, she navigated some tough situations thrown up by a third party and finally got it pushed over the line last week. Thank you, Emma!

Excellent support throughout sale

It's taken a long time but we finally sold our house with Garforth Manning Stainton. Throughout the sale the branch team have been helpful and supportive.

Our sale was particularly complicated due to an unpleasant relationship breakdown. Emma has been absolutely amazing in getting me through the sale. She was proactive in trying to keep things on track despite various issues that came up with the sale (all on the buyers side). She worked tirelessly to ensure issues were resolved as quickly as possible when they came up and was proactive in terms of her communication with me and all parties involved.

Emma has shown so much care and compassion towards me while I have struggled through this process. I really can't thank her enough. She went way above and beyond her role.

Phoebe made the whole process stress free

Phoebe was our Move Manager for the sale of our property and was brilliant throughout the whole process. From the very first introduction she kept us well informed at every stage, regularly chasing updates from both sets of solicitors and relaying information between us and the buyer quickly and clearly.

When the buyer raised queries following the survey, Phoebe handled everything efficiently and kept things moving without any fuss. She was always prompt to respond and made what can be a stressful process really smooth from start to finish.

We completed on time and I couldn't have asked for a better point of contact. Would highly recommend Phoebe and the team at Manning Stainton!

Supportive and reliable

Catherine assisted with my house sale. Her and the team kept us consistently updated throughout the whole process, which made the sale easier to manage.

Although there were a few delays along the way, Catherine handled everything very professionally and kept things moving. Most importantly, we were able to secure a completion date. 

If there is one area for improvement, it would be being a bit more proactive at times with marketing strategies like suggesting refreshed photos to help make the property more enticing when interest slowed. That said, they were always responsive when asked and open to suggestions.

Overall, a reliable and supportive team at mannings. Catherine managed the sale well and stayed on top of everything throughout which took the stress out of the process. Thank you!

Manning Stainton

Manning Stainton, and in particular Phoebe Penrose, were great during our house purchase. We had some issues further up the chain which meant quite a long process but Phoebe kept us up to date throughout and chased the chain for progress and updates. Thanks for finally helping us get over the line!

Manning stainton

We have just moved properties with Manning Stainton. Our move manager Emma Hart , was excellent in what was a difficult and demanding chain.

Emma always kept us informed and I can honestly say without her efforts, I doubt we would be in our new house now.

Emma put in lots of effort, chasing solicitors the buyers estate agents ensuring everyone was kept informed.

I would certainly recommend Manning Stainton, in particular, if you’re lucky enough to have Emma helping you move.

Emma Hart Wonder Woman

The ManningStainton team and especially Emma guided us, supported us and ultimately got what turned out to be a move full of complexity over the line.
The moment the completion went through while we sat in the Garforth branch with Emma and Teresa was like scoring the winning goal at Wembley, we all shrieked, hugged and cried as if with the best of friends.
Can’t thank you all enough

I really don’t know where to start

I really don’t know where to start. After 10 months of sale, no sale, sale, no sale, sale,( you get the picture). We finally completed the sale of our property.
The staff at Manning Stainton were excellent, particularly one Emma Hart, who thought this whole drawn out episode kept me and the wife fairly sane. She kept us up to date on every trial and tribulation that appeared and navigated the whole process for us with calm professionalism. She is without a doubt the brightest of stars. We really cannot thank her enough. Emma you have restored our faith in estate agents and when we look to buy, you will be our first port of call.
