Totally satisfied

You feel that you are in safe hands step by step throughout the whole process. Jonathan managed my expectations and would give me a reality check at times which I greatly appreciated. His advice, professionalism and patience throughout the sale left myself and my wife in no doubt that we had chosen very well indeed. Neil Fallon

Next Level Estate Agency - you should speak to SMH

I can only recommend SMH. They are well experienced, fast, efficient and cost effective.
They’ve taken all of the unnecessary overheads out of the Estate Agent model and evolved it into an excellent model bridging the gap between Rightmove, Purple Brinks and a traditional Estate Agent.
It was exactly what I wanted: access to rightmove viewings, clear updates on interested parties, their feedback/offers, management of all the calls and viewings and sensible practical management of the sale. I felt in control at all times which was refreshing.
You should for sure speak to SMH if you’re thinking of selling your house.

Excellent

Jonathan was very responsive and professional all throughout the sale.
Photos of house were excellent, he wasn't pushy and willing to listen to what we had to say in terms of listing price and photos etc. The fixed fee is also a very fair way of charging for the service provided as percentages can get very expensive. We were very happy with the sale price we achieved and communication was fantastic even when he went on holiday to Majorca. Don't mess about with high street estate agents that use your fee to pay for swanky offices, just go with South Manchester Homes.

Sale of flat

Jonathan was extremely responsive, quick to offer solutions and available to assist and progress our sale as quickly as possible. He was reassuring and pragmatic (particularly when we had a few hitched along the way!).

Exceptional Property Management

Jonathan and Emma are exceptional property managers. I couldn’t rate them 6, so I had to just go with the 5 stars.

 by Customer
Very impressed with the managed service

South Manchester Homes was recommended to me by a tenant in one of their managed properties. That’s pretty unusual in itself so I had to speak to them. I’m a first time landlord & Jonathan has been fantastic - clearly explained everything, kept me informed & found tenants to move in very quickly. So far so good - I’m very pleased with how everything has been handled.

 by Customer
Highly recommended

Jonathan was incredibly helpful with the sale of our house. He was responsive and had good knowledge of the local market. He gave good advice about pricing, took great photos of the house and dealt with the subsequent viewings and offers incredibly efficiently.

He was very patient with us when we had a prolonged process buying our new house and maintained good communication with us and our buyers. This was all exactly what we wanted from an estate agent and Jonathan was pleasure to deal with throughout. Highly recommended!

 by Rob
Great Service

Jonathan was really helpful with the sale of our house. Although it was a lengthy process due to the initial seller falling through at the last minute, Jonathan stuck with it and managed to find a new buyer for us and we’ve just recently completed. Thank you so much to Jonathan at South Manchester Homes, great service!

 by Dave Russell
Quick process managed very well

Jonathan was great throughout the whole process. We had to complete on our house quickly, and what could have been a stressful time for us ultimately felt fairly tranquil.

We're delighted with the house and would gladly recommend Jonathan.

I really recommend this agency as we had a great experience throughout the 3.5 month waiting time since our offer got accepted until we moved in. Jonathan was super responsive and supportive and our experience couldn't be any better. He kindly offered us as many viewing options as possible and eased the mortgage process for us with informative details and tips. He was always reachable on phone and very patient with my never-ending questions.

South Manchester Homes

Jonathan and Emma were fantastic during the whole process of me letting my property out. With this being my 1st time I was quite anxious with regards to the process however from start to finish they took the pressure away from me and made it a very comfortable and easy process. Would highly recommend them to anyone in the future.

 by Mrs Carson
Professional and Efficient

Jonathan is very professional and explained the whole process fully. He is an experienced estate agent and very efficient. This is the second time the family have used South Manchester Homes Ltd and I would recommend them.

 by Shelly
highly recommended

Having used other agents in the area in the past, what's different (and great!) about Jonathan at SMH is the personal touch. He had good knowledge of the house, street and the local area. He has been very helpful whilst the sale was going through, I would definitely recommend SMH.

I was very impressed by the service received from South Manchester Homes. Jonathan was responsive and helpful throughout the entire process. From Offer to Completion was approximately 2 months and Jonathan assisted in making the process run quickly and smoothly. Would thoroughly recommend.

Amazing, Understanding Company

Jonathan and the team at South Manchester Homes were incredible and was a massive help in finding and moving in my first perfect home. Very understanding and explained everything from start to finish. I will recommend Jonathan to anyone I come across!

 by Mr Mcgrath
5star from start to finish

Jonathan was amazing from start to finish. His communication skills are second to none, which made the process run smoothly.

We were kept informed at every stage which made us feel valued as clients. The online account to monitor progress was extremely useful and put us in control with a clear guide to the process involved.

His advice on presenting the property and his hard work in proactively marketing our sale was the reason we sold our property so quickly.

Thank you so much to all at South Manchester Homes. Would most certainly use your services again and recommend to anyone looking to sell, rent or buy property.

Paul & Claire.

Excellent communication and stress free sale.

After having many issues with both agent and buyers for about 5 months with another national high street estate agent, I instructed South Manchester Homes to sell my property.
Jonathan has been brilliant throughout, taking time to listen to concerns and things that upset me with the previous agent. He took time to really filter and find a buyer who was actually committed to purchasing my property. Communication has been great throughout, especially for me its been easy to whatsapp each other whilst i’ve been working and not able to chat over the phone. Jonathan has always made sure to put my anxieties at ease.
I wouldn't hesitate to sell my next property with South Manchester Homes.

 by Gemma Willink
Perfect service

The move with South Manchester Homes was perfect, they could not have done more for us throughout the entire process. Jonathan was always right at the end of the phone to answer and question or worry I had and checked in consistently to keep us up to date. No problem was too big and I felt the communication provided throughout was excellent - Jonathan was trustworthy and reliable from the very start, with excellent advice even in the offering stages. We cannot fault South Manchester Homes and will definitely use them in every future purchase.

 by Paola Corbin
Amazing service

 by Tim
A first-rate service from start to finish

A first-rate service from start to finish provided by Jonathan! He went above and beyond to keep the communication channels flowing between us and our buyer during months and months of the solicitors keeping us in the dark. Jonathan always responded in a timely manner and the fee was definitely commensurate with the consistent quality of service. I recommend South Manchester Homes without reservation if you're selling your property.

We were quite nervous about moving but Jonathan alleviated that with his honest and advisory approach to selling and the advice he offered regarding our purchase too. I couldn’t recommend Jonathan and South Manchester Homes strongly enough if you are thinking of selling.

The service was excellent. Jonathan was more than helpful and kept us advised at all points throughout the sale right up to completion. Would highly recommend.

Excellent service from South Manchester Homes

South Manchester Homes sold my house in Prestwich for me to a very tight deadline. Our agent was Jonathan who from his first viewing of the property on 22 September, pulled out all the stops in a very difficult time with COVID restrictions to finally complete the house sale on 9th December. Jonathan is very professional, expert and knowledgeable. the service and communication with the buyer through Jonathan was timely and very personal. I would highly recommend South Manchester Homes for future purchases.
Speed of sale was critical for us as we are moving to Spain and I needed to realise the equity for my Spanish purchase. Jonathan's help was very specific in this regard.

 by Helen
Great Service

Just bought a house through South Manchester Homes - great service from Jonathan who was very helpful throughout the process

 by Max C
Great for first time buyers!

Purchasing my first flat through South Manchester Homes was a great experience. Jonathan went above and beyond to help me navigate the intricacies of purchasing a property which is certainly daunting for a first-time buyer, and he was incredibly helpful from start to finish. Would highly recommend them!

 by Ella
Good experience

Jonathan has been very helpful in our recent property purchase. He was always great in communicating time, always giving us his time and observing social distancing requirements. He kept in the loop throughout the entire process and always have touchpoint calls to ensure we are happy and to assist us with questions along the way. He also went the extra mile by coming to the property on completion day to hand us the keys.

 by Mathew Wolfenden
Very pleased, will use them again.

Jonathan was friendly and went out of his way to be helpful wherever possible. Far more reasonably priced than most for a fantastic service. Great value, we’ll definitely use then again.

 by Tom McKail
First class service

First class service from start to finish. Jonathan was friendly, informative, professional and went the extra mile during the process with Solicitors and the vendor on our behalf. Would recommend to anyone who is selling their home.

 by Customer
Amazing service from start to finish

Amazing service from start to finish. A descriptive property information pack was put together unlike any we’ve had from other estate agents.

Thanks again Jonathan and we look forward to using your services again.

 by Matt Lowe
Smooth and Stress Free process

I’m not normally one to write reviews, but felt compelled to recommend Jonathan and South Manchester Homes after a less-than-ideal experience attempting to sell my property with another, well known local Estate Agent.

Following that experience, I reached out to Jonathan, who had my property marketed with a great selection of photographs and a video tour within days. The property was promptly sold, above asking price, shortly after the first viewing.

Jonathan kept me informed of the process throughout and was very clear with any potential purchasers about my position and circumstances, thus avoiding any prolonged (and frustrating) negotiations.

I have since recommended South Manchester Homes to one acquaintance (which has been followed-up), and would do the same to anyone else considering selling their property.

Excellent Service

The service provided was excellent, very professional and was really good value. Jonathan was always available, responsive and nothing was too much trouble. The house on Right Move looked great and was sold within days. I can't recommend South Manchester Homes highly enough.

We used South Manchester Homes to sell our home recently and we had a positive experience with Jonathan. Communication was good, he kept in regular contact and would always his phone or get back to us within the hour. We achieved above asking price for our sale and we are now in our new home.

Would Recommend

The team at South Manchester Homes were professional, helpful and supportive throughout my house purchase. They assisted in recommending homes to me as they came on the market, understanding my requirements and continued to support until completion by liaising continually with the vendors and me. I'd definitely recommend whether selling or purchasing.

Excellent work by Jonathan and South Manchester Homes Limited

Relying on South Manchester Homes Limited was an excellent choice for moving house. We were followed by Jonathan, a fantastic agent, always available, kind, professional and efficient. He was attentive and he did an excellent job explaining all very well. It still helps us when we have any kind of problem and he answers our messages at any time when we need him.
I would recommend South Manchester Homes Limited to any friends.

 by Jamie Joseph Brennan
I would highly recommend to any of my close friends and family.

Jonathan and Emma have been and away the best experience I have had letting a property in over 20 years. Helpful, informative and all with a personable style that doesn't make you feel like just a 'two o'clock viewing'.

I would recommend South Manchester Homes Ltd to any of my family and friends, which is just about the strongest compliment you could give to a business.

 by LC
As a landlord

As a landlord, I was with Jonathan and Emma for 15 years. They are always responsive, professional, efficient in their conduct and communications. Have tried other High Street agents but nothing compares with the service I received from this team, they treated my property with the utmost importance. Highly recommend South Manchester Homes Limited (from a tenant as well as a landlord) as I know my business is safe in their hands.

excellent service from Jonathan and Emma.
Sensible new model for advertising and then managing tenancies also. Better deal than many/most estate agents.
Very helpful throughout the process and highly accessible, which is important.

 by L Blease
Couldn't recommend more highly

Towards the latter stages of our tenancy there was a change in management to South Manchester homes. I cannot overstate the palpable difference in service we received as tenants following this change. Emma and Jonathan are both extremely friendly and attentive. It altered my perception of how tenancies can be managed (after having largely poor experiences with letting agents over the last 5/6 years of renting). It definitely felt as though we had a dialogue with the landlord and their management strengthened our relationship with him too. If I were to ever buy-to-let or look for someone to manage my properties in the future South Manchester Homes will be the first port of call.

Market Leading and Attentive Service

Jonathan is a breath of fresh air in this market and does things in a unique way. As a landlord, he keeps you constantly informed of all updates as they happen and always ensures the best for landlord and tenant. More than happy with the service and will be using on future property purchases as managing agent, especially as property was let within 1 week of appointment!

After trying to sell my house with a high street agent, I thought I would give South Manchester Homes a go. I am so pleased I did. The fixed fee was an obvious plus point, but the service was so much better too. Jonathan was excellent. He was very straight forward about everything and would regularly phone to keep me updated or just check everything was okay. I particularly like the fact that you have 24:7 access with information about the level of interest in our property I felt confident in his advise and am now Sold STC. I have already recommended South Manchester Homes to someone else and my experience so far has been very positive.

 by Adele Wood
Great sales fee and online process platform

I have recently sold my home with South Manchester Homes and every step of the way they were there for me. From the valuation to being able to log into my online platform to view offers, viewings and feedback on my property. The service from Jonathan and Emma was always fantastic, they explained everything clearly, I always spoke to them direct and they knew the Didsbury area inside out which not only helped with my sale but also in finding my future home. The set fee of £1,500 really helped me plan my finances for the move and there where no hidden costs. Such a better black and white approach instead of percentage fees dependent on sold price. I would highly recommend, thank you for all of your help.

 by brannrj
Very professional service at competitive rates

Jonathan and the team at South Manchester Homes have successfully marketed and let multiple properties for me as a private landlord and I can strongly recommend their services. The team’s extensive knowledge and experience of the Manchester property market really is clearly evident and they pride themselves on offering a highly professional service at very competitor rates.

We had an excellent experience renting a house in Didsbury using South Manchester Homes. Emma was very professional, attentive, honest and friendly. She did an excellent job explaining all the processes and kept us very well informed. Brilliant customer service.

We decided to rent our house with South…

We decided to rent our house with South Manchester Homes as the conventional letting agent fees were so much higher. We were able to book a valuation appointment online and Jonathan came to visit us the next day. He immediately put us as ease and talked us through the whole process. We didn’t feel under any pressure but agreed to proceed. Jonathan took photos the same day and really made an effort to get the best possible pictures. The advert went live the same day and we had viewings booked within a couple of days. Jonathan carried out the viewings and was very knowledgeable about our home and local amenities. He is professional and friendly and always at the end of the phone when we needed him. We accepted an offer on our home just a week of it being up to let. Once all the references had been carried out the tenants moved in without any complications. The online landlord platform was one of the reasons why I chose the agency as I have access to my property files such as feedback from past viewings, maintenance issues and rental statements at any time of the day. Overall it has been a positive experience and the fees are fair.

Thanks for all your help.
