10th Oct 2026 (17 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.
Keenans Estate Agents - Manchester / Swinton
113 Chorley Road, Swinton, Manchester, M27 4AA
(10 reviews)
6th Oct 2026 (21 days ago)From start to now, with an agreed sale, we are very pleased with the service from Keenan’s.
15th Jun 2026 (19 weeks ago)The initial meeting to value the property, the subsequent meeting to take photos and the organising of the paperwork was great, we were impressed, which was why we went with them. Unfortunately, after 14 weeks on the market they had only got us 2 viewings and their communication to us was a bit hit and miss, so we decided to go with a different agent. They weren’t the right agent for us on this occasion.
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.
9th Jan 2026 (9 mo. ago)A wonderful estate agent. Would definitely recommend.
21st Oct 2026 (6 days ago)Overall a really positive experience. Simone was really helpful with viewing process and again with the follow ups which turned out to be extremely crucial to me securing the property.
10th Oct 2026 (17 days ago)All went ok aside from the recommended solicitors who seemed to drag their feet (as most probably do) it took 5 months after the offer to sell a property with no chain and to a cash investor who wanted no surveys. Made no sense and I felt that I was chasing Staff to chase the solicitors.
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.

28th Apr 2024 (2 years ago)Very efficient service.
14th Oct 2026 (13 days ago)As a buyer, the communication with this agent was fragmented, poor and a let down.<br><br>Had to constantly chase the office for updates and was an all round poor service.<br><br>Plenty of other agents in the area of cheadle I've had a positive experience with, so my opinion would be to strongly avoid this agent for both buyers and sellers alike.<br><br>Substandard all round.
15th Jun 2024 (2 years ago)Very impressed by Lee who was knowlegable and enthusiastic- 3rd Jul 2025 (1 year ago)Invaluable advice and guidance
6th Oct 2026 (21 days ago)Great service from genuinely kind and responsive people.<br><br>Gascoigne Halman were the estate agents for the property I was buying, and they were excellent to deal with throughout the process. They did a fantastic job of keeping both the seller and me informed, helping communication between both sides and fostering a really positive relationship throughout the transaction.<br><br>I would happily recommend them.- 21st Jan 2026 (9 mo. ago)Helpful staff with good communication, fees slightly higher than competitors but quick sale
7th Sep 2026 (7 weeks ago)I had a good experience with Lancashire Properties. The team was friendly, approachable, and straightforward to deal with. Communication was easy, and they were helpful in explaining the details and answering questions along the way. I appreciated the relaxed yet professional service, which made the whole process feel much easier. I would happily recommend them to others looking for a local property service.
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
11th Mar 2026 (7 mo. ago)Clear concise communication and quick response to queries
24th Sep 2026 (5 weeks ago)Absolutely shocking company, will try take all the deposit no matter what and really bad communication
11th Aug 2026 (11 weeks ago)Really recommend BRICS properties as throughout tenancy duration they been responsive and problem solved for me.
