Monks Estate & Letting Agents Wem

"We just wanted to take the opportunity to repeat our thanks to Jo Woollham from Monks in Wem for the appraisal visit yesterday. Speaking for myself I appreciated her professionalism and her in depth knowledge of the market and how that translated into her valuation. I especially appreciated that she made a point to speak directly to my wife hearing her questions and concerns. To date my experience of agents has been largely male dominated and found they often, unconsciously focus on my questions and voice. It stood out for me that she was conscious and made a point in how she engaged us both, it was inspiring to see. On any day I think it’s important to acknowledge and feedback positive experiences but today on International Woman’s Day, I think it more prescient."

"Huge thanks for all your help, right from day one, in dealing with the sale of our house. Your advice, guidance & calm control throughout all the ups & downs is very much appreciated."

"I have just completed a purchase through Monks of Wem and have been left feeling let down and disappointed. The transaction was somewhat protracted with quite complicated circumstances towards the end, which wouldn’t have mattered very much if communications had been reasonably satisfactory. If there is one thing the agent needs to get right, especially to justify sales fees which can be pretty large compared with lawyers and surveyors, it seems to me to be effective communications throughout. Things didn’t start particularly well: if the viewer is sent to the vendor unaccompanied, even when the property is very local, then the prospective purchaser may tend to rely on direct communications thereafter, rather than via the agent. As the weeks passed, the vendor and I increasingly liaised directly to ensure the transaction was kept on track. Having not communicated with me for some time, Monks did suddenly “bob up” at the end, like the proverbial cork, to advise me that completion had occurred, but then I already knew that directly from my solicitor!"

"We recently moved to Wem from Cornwall. Having found the house we wanted through Monks, we began a difficult purchase. Close to exchange my buyer pulled out, we where in a position of losing our dream home. Not so, the team at Wem where completely professional and helpful. We where kept informed of any developments as they happened. We completed with minutes to spare. Thanks Monks you have my highest respect and thanks Ian Henderson"

"Excellent communication and very proactive in chasing and getting things moving and done. One phone call/email to Anne Marie and answers were provided in an exceptionally timely manner. Very professional and well run office. Very highly recommended."
