Hackney and Leigh were excellent. We felt reassured by the professional and knowledgeable service. Our property went to best and final offers within 7 days and we felt that our concerns that our property was sold to a local family who would want to live in it were understood. We received excellent advice on how to choose the most appropriate buyers. We were recommended an excellent local solicitor by Hackney and Leigh which was very helpful. Great professional and friendly service throughout from everyone, thank you Kiera and your lovely staff at the Kendal office.

Would highly recommend Hackney and Leigh, they did a fantastic job from start to finish on selling our house and made the whole process smooth. Special mentions to Keira and Shannon who were in constant contact and as always updating us on the sale.

We are First-Time Buyers and were really quite anxious about our purchase and how smoothly (or not) everything would go. Hackney and Leigh have been nothing short of amazing! We've primarily dealt with Shannon and Keira who have been truly formidable, but to be honest; everyone who we've been in contact with has been professional, informative and just really helpful. The experience (in stark comparison to lots of others we know of through friends and fanily with different agencies etc) has been really smooth and positive. Things have moved at lovely pace and momentum hasn't dropped, as everyone is completely 'on it' and knows what they're doing! This has been great for us, as being first timers, we really had no conceptualisation of how quickly things were meant to move. We started the purchase process mid-Sept and we complete next Friday, 21st Nov. We're so grateful for all of the help and reassurance provided by H&L. Thankyou!- we are SO excited to move into our forever family home! 🏡 Jo, Jake and Arwen x

I would like to personally thank all at Hackney and Leigh, for their patience and understanding through a very challenging house sale. A special mention to Holly who went out of her way and above and beyond. I cannot recommend them high enough.

I just completed the sake of my house in Kendal with Hackney & Leigh. Superb service from start to finish. 17 October 2025

The team advised on a marketing strategy and sold our property, for asking price, within a week. We experienced some last minute difficulties with legal matters; Keira was able to intervene, using her relationships to navigate the issues and avoid a last minute chain collapse, the result being two families completing on their dream homes. Fantastic.

The sale of our property was handled with care and professionalism from our first meeting right up completion. We were very fortunate to have Jacqui as sales negotiator guiding us every step of the way, dealing with all queries promptly and relentlessly pursuing solicitors as and when required. House sales are always a stresssful process and we are so grateful that Hackney & Leigh were always on hand whenever we needed them Cannot recommend highly enough, 5* plus service, and thanks again to Jacqui, a true superstar!!

I was a tenant with the kendal office for 2.5 years and they were by far the best letting agent I've rented from. The application process was smooth and communication was good throughout. When I was a tenant I only had a couple of maintenance issues and both were responded to quickly and resolved in a timely manner. When leaving the premises the move out process was simple and I had my full deposit returned quickly. I'd highly recommend renting via Hackney and leigh if you have the opportunity

If you are wondering which estate agent you should use in South Cumbria then I would suggest you call off the search because Kiera Evans and her team at Hackney & Leigh in Kendal are just about the most professional, diligent and efficient team of people you could wish to do business with. They exceed expectations at every turn and always go the extra mile to ensure your sales or purchase process goes smoothly. Special mention goes to Hayley Wilson, Shannon Hipwell-Dixon, Claudia Cutolo and Holly Strickland. A very difficult and traumatic sale involving a tricky chain was made much easier to handle by these guys. I would heartily recommend you choose Hackney & Leigh in Kendal.

We can't speak highly enough of the amazing sales team at Hackney and Leigh during our recent purchase. Our experience with the team was positive from the outset, with Gail guiding me through the viewing and even rescuing me when I got lost in the dark! From there, Kiera, Claudia and Holly all went above and beyond to navigate us through a tricky and stressful process due to our downward chain, even contacting us after office hours to ensure we were kept updated throughout. We're very happy to be settled in our new home and appreciate the massive effort it took from the team to make that happen! Thanks so much to the entire H&L team!
