BlakeStanley

Awful people - they make up plain lies to steal a few quid of your deposit. If you show them you are right and that their request makes no sense they come up with another excuse like 'admin' that is actually equal to the same amount they took in the first place. THERE'S A REASON WHY YOU LETTING AGENTS ARE THE MOST HATED CATEGORY IN THE UK

I chose BlakeStanley Estate agents after speaking with 3 different agents in the area. Alex was the standout agent for me. He was obviously very experienced and knew his stuff without trying the big salesman on me, which I definitely got from one of the other agents I spoke with. I had not sold a home before, so I had lots of questions and Alex was always willing to give me his time and advice and emails and calls were answered fast.

I also dealt with Matthew in their office, who was also very helpful and he got back to me about various issues when he had news about the sale. All in all a good professional experience and what I had hoped for at the start, so I was very happy with my choice of agent. Thanks to Alex and Matthew.

This review is specifically about Jessica McMullins. Jessica is our Property Manager at Blake Stanley. We live abroad and Jessica is responsible for overseeing the property, dealing with tenant issues and handing any communications with Hackney Council. We have been incredibly impressed by Jessica since she took over management of the property last year. Jessica is incredibly efficient, has very sound decision making skills and is a brilliant communicator.

I cannot recommend her highly enough. I trust her to always make a fair, smart choice for us as landlords, and imagine that our tenants feel much the same way. Thanks Jessica!

My partner and I have been happy tenants with BS for three years in a flat that we love. BS has helped us to establish a good relationship with our landlord by taking care of all the paperwork, rent collection, and helping us to secure this flat in the first place when we were looking for a nice and afforable flat to start our family. Since then we have been well looked after by our landlord personally.

We are proud to call this flat our home, and to raise our young daughter here. Jessica Mullins recently took over as the manager of our particular flat. Since Jessica came along our experience went from "very good" to "excellent", as Jessica helped us to work quickly through a few issues. Jessica is professional, cordial, and communicative. During the last couple of weeks we've been very happy to sign on for yet another year at our beautiful flat. We are confident that if we have any problems, we will be able to contact Jessica directly and that she will help us.

We are currently renting from BlakeStanley, and we are very happy with our flat as well as the services we receive. Especially, from the property manager Jessica McMullins. She has gone above and beyond to accommodate us (we needed a few things done due to our new family addition). Thank you Jessica and BlakeStanley for such a professionalism and excellent service.

Had a good start with our property from the moment we signed and thankfully we have had no issues raised until recently (with boiler). Lilly (property manager) has dealt with these issues with a lot of care and has been updating us frequently which is something we really value as it can be frustrating if you don't know what's going on. We highly recommended Blake Stanley, they really do genuinely care for their clients. Thank you to Lilly for solving problems we have recently had in a snap.

The only thing they do promptly is to collect the rent. If you are a landlord, expect to pick up a lot of slack for these people. I live in a flat managed by Blake Stanley and over the last 3 years they have been a source of friction, with every new agent we get, more useless than the last, always having to reach out to our landlord every time we need for anything to happen.

My property has just been sold through Blake Stanley and I have nothing but praise for their sales team, who were prompt and professional throughout. My sales lead was Alex, who knows both the market and his profession inside out, has a lovely positive energy and was a pleasure to deal with; and Matthew has been great, too. I particularly appreciated the weekly Friday updates and their patience with my frequent telephone queries.

A worthwhile local company to support, which cares about its reputation and client relationships rather than short-term sharkery. I had considered using a digital agency, but having gone through the complex sales process with Blake Stanley and also tried to buy through several online companies, I'm glad I didn't. They deserved their fee.

Blake Stanley have been around as long as I have lived in this area and I have dealt both with lettings and sales. Apart from the honest, down to earth and familiar approach by everyone I have dealt with over the years, Blake Stanley has always made me feel at ease and looked after me well when it came to any anxieties and concerns about my home. I cannot recommend their teams enough.

Not your typical estate agents - hurrah! professional and a pleasure to do business with. I was a tenant of theirs for three years, and then bought a flat through them and they we by far the best estate agent I have ever dealt with.
