Recently used Manning for a house sale. To be clear you are paying for their name to sell your house and not the people showing them around your house. Unfortunately not the best experience but joy the worst either, had an example of viewings cancelled without them informing me, turning up an hour early to viewings without warning us. The lack of knowledge of our house was a bit disappointing from the house viewer, we witnessed her a couple of times and she did not have great knowledge of the house nor show the full house (e.g garage)(Naturally I will be more passionate about the house than someone else, yet for the price you pay I do not feel it was up to scratch). When she wasn’t showing people round it was a sporadic bunch of people - one person could not even find the house despite it having a for sale sign outside of the house). Ultimately, in the end we were the ones in the end who showed the people who eventually bought the house the property and not Manning Stainton. The process once we sold and had an offer was basically redundant as well, would have occasional updates from the move manager (who in fairness was polite and responded when needed). However, I was phoned a day later to say that the solicitors had agreed to exchange (despite me obviously knowing this the day before) so all in all - you are paying for Manning Stainton the brand and basically for a bit of advertising on Rightmove as opposed to really good service in selling your house. I believe the buyers had a good experience with Manning Stainton in general, however, they were shown around the house by us and not them.
