Thornley Groves Estate Agents Omdömen 

Amie Annand thanks 🙏🏽

Thornley Groves were exceptional throughout my buying process. I am really happy with the support I received, with particular thanks to Julie and Kent.
Couldn’t ask for better service at every stage!

Lucy Clegg is my property manager who is always helpful and nothing is ever too much to ask. Thank you Lucy

Herbert Chong has been an excellent property manager for me, and has dealt with any issues in a professional manner.

Katie was very helpful when organising the inspection and communicating with the Maintanence team.

Katie from the Chester branch was as professional, knowledgeable and friendly as we could have hoped for. Any issues we had, she got sorted with efficiency and attention to detail. Thanks, Katie!

Daniel has been managing my property for a few years. He delivers a consistently high standard of service as a property manager for Thornley. He responds quickly, provides clear updates and handles matters efficiently from start to finish. He has been a dependable point of contact.

Amie Annand was very patient and professional whilst I kept querying about work to be done.
Informed me when work was completed.
Thank you Amie.

Lois, Claire and Rebekah are a great team and really helped pushed the house sale over the line when a problem arose. Their communication was great and kept us informed of each step of the sale.

Recently engaged in a property refurbishment project via the TG Altrincham office, which went very smoothly, thanks to the efforts of Amina Mirza, who was very efficient, communicated well and was very organised. Would recommend to others

Thornley Groves has managed my property for a more than a decade and have always done a reasonable job, though there has been a turnover of property managers over that time. Michelle Cleary has been the property manager for the past 12 months or so and has been brilliant - very responsive and provides practical advice and guidance which has been hugely helpful.

I would like to thank Mr. Herbert Chong for his sincere services in the past years. He has been detailed oriented, frank and skillful , taking care of almost all matters of my property in the remote country, UK. I did rely on his advices especially in tedious situations, such as water leakage, repair of appliances, wall painting, etc. As an overseas landlord, I could not imagine if I were to handle those renewal and maintenance decisions directly.
Here I send my best wishes to Herbert and his team.

Kelly was absolutely fantastic at a viewing today. She was so knowledgeable about the property and the location. She put us at ease straight away with her friendly and welcoming nature. Would highly recommend.

Thomas at the Chester branch has been very helpful and liased with our landlord when we had an issue with a leak. A contractor was sent out quickly and the issue was fixed stress free. Thomas was very friendly and did not make us feel like we were causing a fuss. Thankyou!

I really appreciate how Keagan actively responds to all my queries regarding maintenance or just about anything!!
I truly love that ☺️

Emma has been great to deal with at thornley groves. Any queries I have had she has helped me with ease. Very happy with the service provided:)

Michael Richardson is our Property Manager and he has been great!! He has ensured that all of the maintenance issues are sorted and always keeps us informed. Defo recommend ! :)

Kaja been super helpful with all communications between myself and Thornley. Thanks for your management and support.

As a Landlord do not use this company. They are constantly trying to upsell new services with automated sign up, force contractors to mark up the costs of works by as much as 30% and take the difference as an opaque kick-back, are terrible at check-outs to ensure a property is returned in good condition, give you a single point of contact who is one of 6 random people who contact you and can’t project manage the process between check-out, sorting needed repairs, re-advertising, finding a tenant and check-in. The last bit resulting in long void periods, works not completed before the next tenant moves in causing chaos for them.

I did not choose this company but had them hoisted on me because the very good local family business we used for our properties was bought out by Thornley Groves.

They did a classic land and expand by buying the business and looking at all of our gross rent as a piggy bank for them to raid, including:
- Increased management fee rates with the promise of better services (fool me once),
- kick-backs via contractors well over anything agreed in the t&c’s,
- changing the t&c’s to increase fees but not sharing the new t&c’s,
- then mis-selling their next gravy train of no-deposit tenant insurance (after reviewing and saying many times over the phone and in writing that we didn’t want it offered to our tenants, they still kept putting it in the adds & forcing it through. This scheme is fraught with conflicts of interest with a financial incentive for Thornley Groves to reject claims against the scheme);
- finally charging a fee for processing a deposit claim which is part of the management service already paid for.

Whatever, the generic comment that will follow this post from the Customer Care Team about learning from this feedback, they won’t. I gave lots of feedback over the 4+ years of dealing with them and lots of promises were made by them but a continued inability to deliver those promises.

Using Thornley Groves for property management will be detrimental for your investment returns, your tenants and your sanity.

Emma has been very helpful with our let property. Her communication is also very good. We have not always been pleased with Thornley Groves contractors but our experience with Emma is a positive.
