Rebecca has been absolutely fantastic - been a pretty long drawn out process for our sale and she's kept us sane and gone above and beyond throughout.

The team at Manning Stainton were professional and knowledgeable and i received excellent customer service. A huge special thank you to Neve for being so supportive, efficient and having a positive attitude when dealing with the purchase of our house. Neve gave regular updates and the whole process from start to finish was nothing short of amazing. I highly recommend Manning Stainton.

While the sale of my house was eventually completed, I can’t say the experience was a positive one overall. The process became very stressful, largely due to the lack of communication from the move manager, Carol Hartley. Calls were rarely returned, which left me constantly chasing for updates and added unnecessary stress during an already difficult process.
Carol worked Monday to Wednesday as part of a job share arrangement, while Hannah Butland covered Thursday and Friday. In contrast, Hannah was excellent — professional, responsive, helpful, and reassuring throughout. She made a noticeable difference whenever she was involved.
Unfortunately, because of the inconsistent communication and support, my overall experience was disappointing.

Sally has been absolutely wonderful throughout the process of buying our house. She is lovely, kind, helpful, and always willing to answer any questions we have had. Her support and communication have made the whole experience much less stressful, and we really appreciate all of her hard work. Thank you, Sally, for being so approachable and supportive.

Great service from start to finish with the sale of a property. Great communication
Thanks Manning ☺️

It was a pleasure dealing with Manning Stainton in selling the house I have owned for over 50 years. Leaving such a property is emotional, and Hannah with her great team were mindful of this. Their efficiency in keeping me up to date with the proceedings was excellent and any queries I had, were instantly dealt with. Well done team and thanks.

Hannah and Carol put much effort into keeping me updated as the sale of my property went through over the past few months.
Their constant updates and availability to get hold of when needed really made the process go smoothly and stress free. It felt they understood my position throughout the sale and were never pushy or 'salesy'.
Thanks to you both! Happy to recommend 😁

The whole team at MS were great to deal with, personable, knowledgeable, helpful and communicative. Rebecca went the extra mile, attending the property to do certain things when I could not make it, and Charlotte had a great overview of the project, including the chain, and led the process really well. Thanks MS.

The positives - friendly and polite approach and eventually got our property sold albeit lower than our floor price.
However there were many areas where we expected better - could have been more proactive in getting more people through the door, giving advance notice of viewing appointments, getting useful feedback rather than 'we've tried to call and email but not had any feedback', having solutions other than just lowering the price, once a deal was agreed the management of the buyer and the solicitors needed a much more firm hand. The agent handling our property was fairly junior and despite multiple requests for the branch manager to assist and take control of situations they were not the most forthcoming. At times it felt like the buyer was able to call the shots rather than the agent acting on the best interests of the vendor.
We went with Manning Stainton because they appeared to have sold other properties on our road and their approach was more friendly upfront. Just felt lacklustre once the property hit the market and was constantly having to chase for 6 months to get it sold and completed.

I can not fault the service from the staff team at Oakwood.
Ryan was always on hand to offer advice and let me know the feed back from viewings.
All the staff are extremely professional on the telephone and couldn't be more helpful.
They are an asset to Manning stainton.
Thanks again for my super quick sale !!!

I cant thank Mannings enough! I had my Dads leasehold flat on the market with another agency for over a year with minimal viewings. I switched to Mannings, got great advice from Manager Helen, and it was sold within a few months. Unfortunately we have since had to wait for probate to be granted. I have found Niamh to be incredibly professional, knowledgeable, helpful and friendly, which has genuinely made a stressful situation much less worrying. When I come to sell my own property this year, I will be asked for Niamh at Mannings to manage the sale.

We sold our Mum’s flat in a bereavement situation.
I found all the team I spoke with really kind, helpful, professional, and courteous.
We got the full asking price and secured a buyer very quickly.
This was a leasehold property, which I’m told by some are notoriously difficult to sell. This wasn’t our experience.
I also use Manning Stainton to manage my rental property.
I wouldn’t consider another agent!
Thank you for handling this difficult situation with efficiency, sensitivity, and support. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We just bought our first house with Manning Stainton, Niamh facilitated the purchase and she ensured everything was as easy and quick as possible as well as being there to answer any questions. They offered support and recommendations for solicitors and mortgage advisors which helped everything go smoothly, would definitely recommend.

My family has always used Manning Stainton. We know we can rely on the service and this time it was exceptional. Niamh Hanley whom we dealt with throughout was excellent. She answered all our quetions, was very patient with us, and really kept things moving along when it seemed there could be a blockage. She kept us informed at every step, liaised with our solicitor and never failed to respond helpfully and quickly when we needed advice. We will recommend to all our friends. MS

It took over a year to sell the house. That’s not a good performance in anyone’s book. After several agents who had disappointed we eventually got Niahm who was a breath of fresh air. Courteous, efficient and an excellent communicator.

Thank you to the entire Oakwood team - especially Lesley Alexander, my move manager - for helping me with my house purchase. Excellent, professional service from start to finish. Lesley gave me regular updates and explained next steps throughout. I am really happy with the service and would recommend without hesitation!
