The team from Murray were great at every step of listing and selling my house in Melton Mowbray. James valued, photographed and listed my property in good time and managed to find a buyer with no chain at the asking price within a week. Julia was fantastic at communicating all the details and updates with both sides of the purchase which made for a swift and smooth transaction. Thank you to all the team for making the whole experience a great one! Highly recommended.... Read more

We have just purchased a house which was marketed and sold by Murrays, and they also marketed and sold the next house above in the chain - two houses in a chain of four properties / five parties. We have been very disappointed with our communications with Murrays. A date was pencilled in as a completion date, and after waiting weeks for what we thought was the last piece of paperwork, we were told by Murrays 'Great news, they will start the searches now' - adding months on to the timeframe. Then the top of the chain had a property fall though and resumed their search from the beginning, and this was hidden from us as we waited month after month for them to 'be ready', not knowing they didn't even have a property. Much later, we discovered the house we were purchasing had no heating upstairs but was marketed as having such. When raising this, Murray's immediately took the mention of radiators off their website and the Rightmove listings and denied any responsibility for listing the house inaccurately, blaming the vendors for not checking the details. Less than a fortnight before completion, we'd receive end-of-the-day calls telling us the date was being pulled, causing so much stress we eventually asked for all comms to go through the solicitor. And on completion, they didn't arrange for us to collect the keys (our very efficient estate agent organised this for us), didn't congratulate us or check in that all was ok, nothing. Very disappointed and would not recommend.... Read more

From start to finish the staff at Murray’s were absolutely brilliant .The viewings were carried out by them which took the pressure off me. They also coordinated the sale and were the driving force within the chain contacting the other agents and solicitors to keep it all on track . They took the time to explain , support and reassure me as the sale went through .
I would recommend Murray’s without a hesitation. It is a very stressful time when buying and selling a house but Murray’s made it a lot easier for me .... Read more

My parents brought our family home from Murray’s 49 years ago , so when Mum moved into residential care she was keen they were the right People to help us sell.
Grant gave a fair and honest valuation and as it was a remote sale the team handled all the viewings.
Once we had found a buyer the Kathryn and all the team in Oakham were excellent and handled all communication and the process with speed and professionalism.
They maintained this right up-to and beyond completion.
They also recommend a first class conveyancer who is know handling the sale and onward purchase of our own home.
First class service from a great local business …would definitely recommend …many thanks... Read more

We bought a house with Murray in March and found them really excellent; friendly, helpful and on the button!
The house we’d bought needed a lot of work, so we delayed selling our current home.
We opted for Murray to help us sell it a few on the later - it seemed the obvious thing to do and they have marked the property extremely well.
We accepted an offer on it after 3.5 weeks which is pretty good going in this slightly sluggish housing market.
They definitely deserve the 5 stars. Thank you to all the team at Murray Estate Agent, OAKHAM. ????????????... Read more

Murrays know the Oakham area well. The team are easy to contact. and courteous. Viewings are arranged promptly and the staff that show one around are helpful - though they did not always know about access to odd corners like garage, loft, garden shed. My impression is that Murrays value properties rather higher than other estate agents, and above local going rates - which could be good or bad depending on how you look at it.... Read more

We are in a position to buy. Viewed a property but they hadn’t got the key for a workshop that was with the house. We were very interested but asked if we could see the workshop. They said I’ll ring you when we have got the key. I wasn’t happy about that as we needed to make a decision regarding the property and we were wanting to make an offer so I suggested that I book a second viewing for 5 days later so that they had chance to get the key.. We met them at the property for the 2nd viewing. We took a tape measure etc and had decided to make an offer even though we still couldn’t get in the workshop so on the way home we popped in the oakham office to make an offer. We walked in and said we had just been to second view this property and a woman said we have just accepted an offer on it from a viewing the day before. The woman offered no sympathy and failed to sit us down and say.something like I’ll be in touch if it falls through or I’ll let you know of others that come up. if I was the owner I would be annoyed that they made no attempt to see if they got another offer from us knowing it was a second viewing and therefore there could have been an opportunity to make more money for the owners by having two independent bids. At no point where we told of the other viewing and had we known we would of made a decision prior to the other viewers. There was a complete lack of customer service and I came out saying well that was a complete waste of time having spent hours thinking about and visiting the property over the past few days. You should be ashamed of the appalling service. The woman in the office needs a customer facing course. I’d never use or buy from them. They do nothing to make you feel like they give a damn !!...

Awful company.Lazy, greedy and rude. No idea how they are still operating. Do not use at all. NEED INVESTIGATED
Where to start? Experience was poor from the beginning. Illegally listing houses with "No children" , "No dogs".
Husband in receipt of a injury benefit (war) and Murray tried to tell us they couldn't accept any benefits of any kind. (illegal) Despite both of us receiving an additional income on top (should have been our first warning, however thankfully everything was documented.)
They don't use up to date photos on the adverts. Found out our house photos were over 7 years old and not even slightly correct. Luckily we had viewed property and saw the true state of it. (TAKE YOUR OWN PHOTOS OF EVERYTHING)
Was hundreds of pounds over priced. They were lucky our house sale had gone through or we would have walked away.
Staff are not only rude and unprofessional but actually breaking laws due to their complete and utter incompetence. Hayley Scott of Murray Oakham Letting team, was one of the worst staff members I have ever come across rude, made up lies of the property condition (again luckily had our own photos) rifled through our belongings (like non inbuilt cupboards). Utterly obsessed with a scuff mark on the wall (which we had said several times we would happily paint over.) Yet when you actually needed her they completely ignore maintenance and emergency requests. It took nearly 7 months to fix a leak and a hole in the roof! Dangerous mould mounting up in one bedroom which was never fixed. Also had a porch that leaked into the electrical light in the hallway, stated several times it was due to the water coming from above, took photos and reported it (honestly it was probably an electric shock waiting to happen.) Had an electrician come to look at it (Steve). He said -obviously- he couldn't fix it until the leak had stopped above but would disconnect it until it was fixed. The light fixing then continued to dangle for months.
Had health reports done due to mould and was advised to take legal action. Only when council got involved did they bother to return a single phone call. When they realised they would have to do something about the mould and horrific conditions they attempted to remove us from the property.
Unlike Murray, both the council and myself were knowledgeable in housing law so thankfully were able to protect ourselves until we found somewhere new.
During the searching time for a new property we were harassed, with emails, and had members of the property team of Murray turn up unannounced claiming to be there for a show round. (not happening.) and finally they claimed they were "fixing" problems within the house (probably saw £££ when they realised they could re-list it but would have to actually do some work.)
The electrician finally returned when we were due to leave, Hayley Scott Murray Oakham lettings adviser kept trying to turn up when he was there, at the time I couldn't work out why (because they never fixed the leak in the porch) Then found out months later that they were having an affair! So not only ,totally unprofessional but disgusting. (and thank god I worked from home.)
Before we left I found the landlords details, and wrote in great detail about how disappointed we were with the service and expressed how if he couldn't find another service provider, that his house was going to be left in an awful state. He eventually wrote back to us to say he a) Knew nothing about the problems and b) could we pay him for the rent we owed. We didn't owe him any rent, Murray had stolen his money and attempted to use this as an excuse to remove us from the property. How they thought they would get away with that I'll never understand as we had internet banking and could prove every payment??? They then backtracked and claimed it to be a mistake. (Which they never apologised for.) The imbecile landlord has since relisted with Murray.
Terrible from the start; discriminatory, rude, liars, poor communication, terrible service providers and breaking the law at every opportunity.... Read more

I said well someone left me a message this morning but strangely enough I work so I couldn’t answer. Her reply was well I don’t know what house You was on about. So I just gave up!!
