All the staff at Clarke's are amazing! They have worked tirelessly to get my house sold, they've helped us through numerous 'issues', and chased other agents, buyers and solicitors to get the job done. This is the second time I've used them, and I would again - if I was still in the area! Highly recommended

Would like to say a massive thanks to Andrea and the team at Clarkes. It was a quick sale with a long completion which we wanted, there were problems with the chain along the way, but we were kept updated throughout the process. An awesome job by an awesome team, massive thanks Nigel, Judy and Monty! :

So I want to share my journey with Clarkes. I was looking to sell a property during a every difficult time for myself and my family - not knowing where to start I used a website to recommend agencies in the area - I contacted the top 3 Clarkes were the first to call following my enquiry One of the directors (Claire Sheppard) actually called personally Extremely knowledgeable about property, sales, development not to mention personable (felt like I had known the years) No pushy sales speech Followed up the call with an email & info Great service Obviously I chose Clarkes!
From the moment of instruction I can not fault them! They were up against needing a quick sale, a tenant who wasn't accommodating and knowing I wasn't always available due to personal reasons - Clarkes understanding, flexibility and professionalism was outstanding Their ability to understand their buyers requirements and their vetting process meant we only had viewings from serious buyers (and we weren't short of interest either) They took detailed feedback from every viewing allowing us to know what was needed for a quick sale - as a result we achieved our goal and had a great offer from a buyer able to proceed extremely fast.
Even after the offer was excepted their level of service did not falter due to their knowledge of the offer to completion process and constant follow ups with all parties involved. I have been through the house sale/purchase process over a number of times previously and I really can't express what a fantastic agent Clarkes is.they go way above and beyond with their service and really are a cut above the rest!
If Clarkes are in your area, then I really wouldn't consider anyone else. The positive experiences is actually endless but I'm not sure this review page would give me enough character spaces to list them all

Went to Clarkes, Winton initially for a property evaluation, and right from the start was such a pleasant experience and very understanding. An appointment was made to view my property with Alex. Amazing first impression. Turned up on time, polite and respected our house hold. Even though we wanted just an initial evaluation Alex was professional and curtious. Took an interested in our house and in fact us.
He had a great insight to the local area and values of property around the area. Exceptional legal knowledge, which has given us a good footing to start the selling process. We are just considering to sell, but we will definitely be selling with Clarkes, Winton. Was a pleasure and we highly recommend them

POLITE, INFORMATIVE, FRIENDLY, FASTASTIC! Clarkes Estate Agents sold my flat recently and they guided me through the process every step of the way. Nothing was too much trouble and they were always so nice, no matter how many times I called! We dealt with Andrea, who was simply amazing. Thank you again, The Brierleys

Steve was friendly and professional throughout the whole buying process. He kept us informed at every stage and regularly contacted the solicitors on both sides to keep things moving. Thanks to Steve the purchase was completed efficiently and quickly. We would definitely recommend Steve and the team at Clarke's.

Andrea Gritt showed me the bungalow, I loved it immediately and thankfully my offer was accepted, she was so friendly, informative and professional throughout the whole process. As is often the case there was a set-back when the bottom of the chain pulled out, (a different agent). A new buyer was found quickly and Andrea effectively drove the whole process through to exchange and completion by regularly communicating the position with all concerned effectively keeping everyone on track.
I really think if she had not done that then there could have been more problems. I would definitely recommend Andrea and her team at Clarke's to anyone requiring their services. Many thanks for a great job!

Having recently completed on a house, I can honestly say, as far as the reputations of Estate Agents go, Clarke's Estate Agents were brilliant! I'd even go so far as saying, they set the bar high for other Estate Agents! From start to finish, my partner & I were fully informed of the process, communicated to on a regular basis & were dealt with in a highly professional way.
Both Claire, & Alex (who held our hands throughout the house selling journey) made the experience an almost stress-free event! Great job guys! I can't recommend Clarke's Estate Agents enough tbh. After handing over a 'thank you' card & a bottle of bubbly, they did the exact same thing back & we too were given a 'welcome to your new home' card and bubbly! A GREAT team! Thank you all, love Dee & Sam X

For many students finding accommodation is hard and stressful, Clarkes DOES NOT make it any easier. When moving into our student house it was left in an awful state! There were previous tenants' belongings, stains on walls, curtains and floors, food crumbs, broken and rusting appliances, a fridge that didn't keep our food cold, sticky surfaces etc.
You could tell this property had not been cleaned, considering when viewing the house, the agent assured us it would be cleaned. As we were tied in this contract there was no way of getting out of this house. As the months went by appliances kept breaking. we went without hot water and heating for days, lights went out, power sockets burned out, our shower continuously broke and leaked, radiator leaking which went through to light fixtures.
When trying to get a hold of Clarkes through emails, it took days for a reply and when calling their office it was always closed. We had a few emergency numbers, but they always passed us on to another person. We also did not receive the inventory list until 5 months of living there. I moved out for a few months at a time as I could not fathom living in that house.
When the tenancy ended, they charged us for damage that was already there when we first moved in. The damages were also stated in the inventory list, so we found it completely ridiculous that they are trying to rip us off and taking money from us when there is clear evidence that it was not us (we are currently in the process of disputing these charges, I haven't got much hope). To sum this up, I would AVOID THIS COMPANY at all costs for the sake of your sanity and money's worth.

Big big thank you to Clarkes for helping me buy my first place! I was pretty clueless about processes but Claire and Andrea talked me through everything and were really helpful, got back to me very quick about any questions. Other staff always around to talk to also and polite and professional when asking questions. I felt they genuinely wanted things to work out as seamless as possible and they enjoyed the little wins with me throughout. Made the whole thing a lot less stressful! Would thoroughly recommend anyone to buy or sell through Clarkes. Thank you so much again
