Emma, a breath of fresh air.

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.

Great tenancy service

I have been a tenant through Thornley Groves for 13 years and they have been very helpful when issues arise. Property manager Amina Mirza has been excellent. She is very diligent and conscientious when dealing with matters. I would highly recommend.

Excellent agents for the last 2 years

I've been with Thornley Groves as a renter for nearly 2 years now and they've honestly been great. Especially Emma Slabbert who has been my main contact person throughout.
I'd say where they've excelled has always been in communication and speed. The few times I've had issues in the apartment I've managed to get hold of someone and if not resolved, then on the way by the end of day. Additionally, when I've reached out for advice or an opinion, they've been equally responsive.
The only room for improvement I can think of would be in attention to detail I suppose. For example when the fallen leaves were cleared away in autumn, they shredded the wall next to my apartment. Or after very quickly coming out to fix my shower, the person meant to come and put some panelling back never arrived. But these are really minor things in the scheme of things and all a consequence of good service.
I'm happy renting with them now and also happy to do so again in the future.

Thornley Groves were successful

Thornley Groves were successful, friendly and efficient at selling my flat. Rebekah in particular had much to sort out ahead of the sale as the tenant left the property with a mess to clear out and a tricky situation with them and their relatives.
She dealt with them, the buyer, my managing agent and myself with discretion and did all she could to move things along to a successful sale. Well done!

Very professional and reassuring staff at TG - Herbert Chong

We recently purchased a flat with an existing tenant in it and we as the new owner needs a lot of advice on how to manage this property, Herbert Chong as our client relationship manager smoothly took over and guided us through the whole process - he is ever so patient with our questions, pointed us to the right directions re various issues and he is so good at what he does as he has an answer for every question and always understanding and reassuring. He is a true asset to TG, with Herbert’s professional and personal skills, he can win all business and we have no hesitation to leave our flat in his good hands. I must also mention Herbert’s amazing Chinese skills has really helped bridging a lot of cultural gaps - I can only imagine how lucky for TG to have staff like Herbert, a very rare asset for an ever growing Chinese customer market! We rely on you Herbert and please don’t leave! :-D

1 star - AVOID

1 star — Avoid at all costs

We moved into our property managed by Thornley Groves City Centre and from day one it has been an absolute nightmare. Despite clearly communicating our move-in date requirements beforehand, we were forced into a start date that didn't work for us and arrived to find the property in a disgusting, uncleaned state — in direct breach of our tenancy agreement. We have photographic evidence of everything.

Since moving in we have raised multiple serious issues including no hot water, a corroded and neglected water tank, and not receiving the parking fob for our allocated space which is written into our contract. We have sent numerous emails and attempts to contact them and have been met with complete silence every time.

The property was clearly not inspected or prepared before we moved in and the level of care shown towards tenants once you've signed is non-existent. Basic legal obligations under the tenancy agreement are being ignored and we are now considering escalating to The Property Ombudsman and Manchester City Council's Environmental Health department.

If you're considering renting through Thornley Groves City Centre, think very carefully. Once they have your signature and your money, you are on your own.

Recognition of Great Service

Offered and closed on a property in leafy Manchester. Legals took a while but we worked through it together and got over the finish line in the end. So glad my offer was accepted and the team in Didsbury was responsive to my queries and drive to get it to completion.

We had a viewing today with Kelly McDermott and were extremely impressed with the service she provided. Kelly was friendly, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable about the property and local area.

What stood out most was her honesty and transparency throughout the viewing. She was happy to answer all of our questions, provided useful information without any pressure, and gave us confidence that she genuinely wanted to help us make the right decision.

Kelly’s approachable manner and excellent communication made the whole experience enjoyable and stress-free. We would highly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell a property.
