Matt caught the property bug while working for a London estate agency firm after graduating in 2000. On returning to the north east, and after a short spell at a Durham based letting agent, Matt launched Rise estate agents in 2007. From the spare bedroom in his home in Chester le Street Matt quickly built an impre
ssive property portfolio, many of which are landlords that are still with the company today. Now married with 2 children (meaning no spare bedroom to run a business from…) Matt has successfully grown the business and in 2013 made the move to its current office in Durham city centre.

So far, I have found Rise Lettings to be friendly and efficient. I have recently changed my management agent from another company (who I became worse as time went on) to Rise. My experience so far has been ... Read Full Review

Matt and Barbara have been excellent estate agents during our time under their care, and they are both also thoroughly nice people. It's helped to have estate agents who are so approachable, and while there have sometimes been minor delays on maintenance, that is to be expected from any busy ... Read Full Review

Following a meeting with Matt ten years ago when we were very impressed with his professionalism and attention to detail, we decided to move the management of our property portfolio in central Durham City from 'In house' to Rise Lettings. Since that time, Matt and his team have overseen numerous ... Read Full Review

Very friendly - just moved into our first student house and it's gone so smoothly - everything was already set up and in really good condition. A huge contrast from what some of our friends in other houses are going through! Barbara came to meet us at the property to give us our keys even though we ... Read Full Review

I cannot recommend highly enough Matt, Andy and Barbara at Rise Lettings, Durham. They have quickly found good tenants for my 3 Student properties over the last 3 years. They fully manage these houses efficiently and professionally. I have always found them very helpful, friendly and knowledgable ... Read Full Review


What agent could do to change your mind?

Competitive fees for excellent service.

I am a Non-Resident Landlord living in the Middle East. Matt and his team instill an air of confidence and capability with regard to the management of our property in Consett; something I need living abroad. They always keep us up to date and seem fair to both us as landlords and the tenants with ... Read Full Review

I cannot thank Matthew and the staff at Rise enough for the service I have received in renting out my property. In comparison to other larger agents, Rise have been far more proactive at helping me to find a tenant and they have also kept me informed at every stage of the process. They found ...

I use Rise to fully manage our property as we are not local to this address. The team are very friendly and know who I am if I ever call in, this gives a real personal touch. Within a week of using Rise I had a tenant lined up and ready to move in. The Rise team will go that extra mile to ... Read Full Review

My property has been in the hands of Rise lettings since they started 5/6 years ago. Matt and his team have been nothing short of amazing. I have several properties throughout the country with different letting agents but have never had service like this. They are proactive and I just know my ... Read Full Review

Was recommended to Matt Geany at Rise by another landlord having had no luck letting our property using other local agents. Matt's team did an excellent job sourcing a suitable tenant within a reasonable period of time and dealt with the new tenancy in an efficient manner. Have been impressed by ... Read Full Review

I have had two fully managed properties with Rise Lettings since 2007, when I was introduced to the proprietor, Matt Geany in the early days of his lettings business. As a property sourcer at the time it was essential to have a reliable, competitive and creative agent, with an ability to tenant ... Read Full Review
