Will take forever to fix basic items that should work in your flat. Took a year to get an oven fixed

Efficient and friendly. Process has been very smooth.

Lisa Aspinal provided a great and professional service and particularly good at managing the chain - highly recommended!

I sold my flat through Philip James in Didsbury. Thanks to Sophie Wood for her very friendly but professional manner and for ensuring that everything went smoothly during the sale of my flat. Her liaison between the buyers and myself was very helpful and her speedy response to any contact was much appreciated, all of which helped to make it a very successful move. A special mention too for Leila Sadeghi who made a great job of marketing it by taking numerous photos and a video and producing a very attractive brochure.

I’ve had a brilliant experience with Philip James, largely thanks to Emma Knight. Throughout my time with them, whenever I needed assistance or had a query, Emma was always prompt, professional, and reliable.

DO NOT GO With this Company!!!!! Thay have been so un helpful since the day we moved in !!! When we first collected the keys for are flat when we moved to Manchester we went into the office expecting to move in on our moving day thay asked if we would come back tomorrow to collect our keys and we where like we have no where to stay we need the keys to day like we agreed and the man at the desk seemed not bothered but he finally agreed to give us the keys it took him less than five minutes to give us the keys and print a peace of paper for us to sign and it was very annoying because thay wanted us to come back the next day just to do that!!!!!! Then reporting anything on the app for any to be fixed thay don’t even do or when u phone them thay have no clue about and even when u email them u get no response at alll finally we have moved out and the flat has been sold to a new landlord we have been waiting for are deposit and the new landlord said the money should of been sent to us we phone the letting agent and thay didn’t even start it !!! So we been waiting for them not even start it !!! and also that lie to the new landlord about us not reporting anything but we sent the landlord all the evidence that we had and they did nothing. Thay also tell u one thing and the next time you phone thay tell u something else !!!!!! If u think about going with this company please don’t !!!!

This is the second time I am writing to express my thanks to Jack Ward (Property Management Administrator) working at Burton Road Manchester office. He is such an efficient & helpful person. All the problems in relation to the service charge have been solved swiftly in just 2 days time.

We really appreciate your professional approach and guidance. You are always there to listen to us and take action immediately. We hope that we are in the right place now.

I had a viewing with Natalie, she was extremely friendly and helpful. Communication has been excellent too. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to rent or buy!

Viewed an apartment with this agency in Salford. Upon arrival I was informed that there were works going on on the building for the next 10 months, replacing the balconies. This meant that the property had no access to the balcony during that time, and worst still the only windows to get air into the property were the balcony doors, which only opened a tiny sliver during works, so the apartment was completely stuffy. As well as this the works were extremely noisy.
Obviously this is essential information to include on a listing, or at least to inform potential viewers of prior to them actually attending the viewing.
This was a complete waste of my time. I took time out of my working day to attend when I never would have bothered had I known about the balcony works.
Avoid this agency as they clearly have no respect for people's time - I hate to think how they handle things like repairs when this is how they handle viewings.

Smooth and supportive viewing - cheers

Unprofessional

Me and my family are just coming to the end of our journey with Phillip James and we’d love to thank wholeheartedly Franca for her continued genuine support throughout the process of selling our first home. She is friendly, honest and truely wishes to help you get the best experience out of the process. Her consistent communication and experience is a credit to her, we would strongly suggest to work with Franca and her team to sell your property. The process has been smooth, quick and efficient with no stress, this is all thanks to Franca.
Thankyou and we wish you all the best!

experienced faultless service from Philip James, the leading real estate specialist in Manchester, for a decade. Recently support was particularly appreciated when I needed understanding after the UK’s leading bank, closed my account without cause.

Senior bank executives are shielding themselves, and their banks, from any possibility of regulatory misconduct by using automated algorithms to detect ‘unusual’ (not even ‘suspicious’) activity on customer accounts. Contractually the banks are not required to provide customers with an explanation, and they offer no due process to confirm that, what the computer detected as unusual , is normal and explainable. Even the Notice of Account Termination letter was computer generated It begins: "We're closing your account(s)" and ends:" Yours sincerely, Your XXXX Banking Team" . No name! - and so begins a nightmare All attempts to have my accounts restored were in vain. Unlike Philip James, there is no human contact with a name and authority to act. A computer’s red flag remained so I was without a bank. My monthly rental deposit from Philip James would invitable bounce. Philip James became the only comfort I because I could dialogue with real people with a real names, online.

I needed to make a Council Tax payment and eventually I would need to recover overpayed tax forma HMRC and there were other ins and outs. The reality is that it is impossible to exist in a modern society without a current account - this is as much an essential utility as water,

Thankfully, the UK Government has recently acted in favour of bank customers in this respect

Having lived most of the last 50 years overseas I have maintained links with different countries. I am not surprised a computer spots an ‘unusual activity”

I value the fact that Philip James has a stable team of professionals who provide the intended services and are willing to go further if needed.

I appreciated the work-arounds during the 6 months when I was without a bankin service, I am especially grateful to the Credit Controller and Property Management Administrator handling my account at SPECTRUM

Fantastic Team at Philipjames. Very patient and professional service at all times. My Agent Franca Carbone, and Sales Progressor Lisa Aspinall were so helpful, making the process much easier, especially as I was a first time seller. Thank you both so much. Highly Recommended. Kindest, Brian Goodhand JP.

We had a viewing with Lyn, who was absolutely lovely. She was punctual, extremely professional, and provided us with all the information we needed to confidently put forward an offer.

We couldn’t be happier with the service.

For any landlord looking for support in letting their property, I couldn’t fault the service and would highly recommend it.

Will not return calls or emails or organise a viewing, been waiting 3 weeks, don't use this company if you want to sell!
To the owners - they are withholding viewings to force you to lower the price - then they can sell to developers/mates at a cheaper price - they are not on your side!

Absolutely terrible experience with Philip James — I would strongly advise others to stay away.

At the end of our tenancy, they attempted to make unfair deductions from our deposit for reasons that are simply not justified. The flat was properly cleaned before we moved out, yet they still tried to claim cleaning costs with no reasonable evidence.

On top of that, they charged us for “missing” chairs that were never actually lost. We had temporarily left them outside the flat while moving our belongings, and the building management removed them without any notice. This was communicated to the landlord, but he failed to inform us — which is clearly not our fault. Despite this, the agent still tried to hold us responsible.

Even more concerning, they attempted to charge £400 for four old, worn-out chairs, which is completely unreasonable and far beyond their actual value. It honestly feels like an attempt to inflate deductions rather than resolve things fairly. Besides that they tried to take almost all our deposit around £800 for infiltrated claims that something is not cleaned or damaged.

This situation made it very clear where their priorities lie. Despite tenants also paying fees and trusting them to act professionally, they sided entirely with the landlord and showed no interest in being fair or balanced.

Overall, the whole process felt dishonest and opportunistic. I will not be dealing with this agency again and would strongly recommend others to be cautious.

I recently had an issue with my balcony doors not closing properly, and Caroline handled it brilliantly from start to finish. She was efficient, professional, and kept me informed throughout the process. The problem was resolved quickly and with no hassle, which I really appreciated.

Caroline’s friendly and proactive approach made the whole experience smooth and stress free. It’s clear she takes pride in her work and genuinely cares about providing great service.

Philip James give her Employee of the Month and a bottle of champagne or a day off 😅, she’s earned it!

I’m very satisfied and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her. Thank you again!

I recently attended a viewing with Natalie Ormsby and had a really positive experience. Natalie was professional, friendly, and very knowledgeable about the property. She made the whole process feel smooth and stress free, taking the time to answer all questions clearly and providing helpful information without any pressure.

Communication was excellent throughout, and Natalie was punctual and welcoming, which made a great first impression. Overall, I was very impressed with the level of service and would happily recommend Natalie to anyone looking for a property viewing.
