Really impressed with Martin & Co in Wokingham! The Sales Director Ian Springell was a fountain of information and knowledge. He understood our situation and gave us brilliant advice on the market and what we needed to do. We had two other agents out (and one that didn't even turn up!) but they made us feel under pressure to put our house on the market straight away but we are not quite ready yet. We have already decided on Martin & Co and I would highly recommend speaking to Ian if you are thinking of selling your house, he is clearly not like the other agents in the town!

We bought a lovely house in Wokingham through Martin and Co. Pretty much all my correspondence was with Paul. We were out of our comfort zone buying a property that needed extending. Paul recommended a good architect that was able to advise on what might be possible for our needs. With regards to the sale, Paul was always available to answer any questions and always responded promptly. He was also very caring and respectful to his client. When it came to negotiating, Paul was very accommodating towards both our needs and we ended up agreeing to a figure that worked for all.

I have rented a property with Martin and Co in Wokingham for the past 2 years and have recently decided to hand it back and live with friends to save to buy. The experience I had with Martin and Co was superb, I predominantly liaised with Rosemary who was courteous from the start and she treated me almost like a friend throughout my tenancy and through the handing back process, her colleagues are lovely also.
I rarely had any need to call the agents but when I did they bent over backwards to accommodate any requirements that I had and they were thoroughly communicative and courteous.
If you are looking for a top notch agent, look no further, these people really have the old school bespoke touch when offering a quality service, thank you to you all. Mark

My opinion is to STAY WELL CLEAR!!
After being a tenant under Martin&Co Wokingham my personal advice to anyone would be that I would NOT recommend Martin&Co. In my personal experience and dealings with Martin&Co and their director I was left to feel as if I was a second-class citizen!! In my personal experience even going as far as stating that we had no rights.
In my personal experience with Martin&Co and dealings with Erica and her team they persisted to in my opinion try to threaten and intimidate, again in my opinion and based off of my personal experience, I was left to feel they used underhand practices to get the outcome they desire.
Personally, as a tenant who values my right to privacy, and right to quiet enjoyment as set out in tenancy agreements. I did not feel as if that was respected or acknowledged by Martin&Co Wokingham. In my experience they contacted me outside of working hours numerous times no matter how many times I requested them not to, I was left to feel harassed. In my experience numerous times Erica phoned/emailed myself when she wanted to, personally I don't want to take calls as late as 8:30pm regarding such matters however I had no choice with Erica. In my personal experience they even went as far as turning up to the home without notice!!
In my personal experience our deposit was not kept in a safe manner and in my opinion was not dealt with professionally and fairly at the end of the tenancy. After numerous requests surrounding our deposit, I'm left to personally feel it is not something Erica and her team at Martin&Co sadly seem to believe in. In my experience our deposit was threatened several times and again in my opinion used as leverage whilst they continued to withhold up to date prescribed information that they were required to provide us with during our tenancy.
In my experience they did not deal with our deposit requests and took the complete allowed time to reply to any requests made from the governing body. They made numerous claims which would seemingly double the following day, I was left to feel as if these were fictitious claims. For us personally it took 4 months to reclaim the deposit when the governing body dismissed many of said claims. In my opinion I would hope and expect a company like Martin&Co to deal with this in a more professional and timely manner.
My advice based on my experience is if you're a landlord that wants to know their property is in the safe hands of professionals, I would highly advise staying clear!! During my dealings with Erica and her team they weren't the best with paperwork and made numerous errors in the actual paperwork they did prescribe!! In my personal experience they left confidential paperwork with high value in an unsecured environment and the team could not even find it at one point. In my experience during this time a staff member was in my opinion incredibly rude to us, even though they could not find our confidential paperwork through their own errors. In my opinion and experience Martin&Co they struggled to acknowledge most of tenancy law, except that which benefited their own motives.
In my experience they took no accountability of their numerous errors and tried to claim the incurred costs of their what I deem as amateur mistakes out of our deposit. In my opinion these mistakes came down to a lack of knowledge within the team and leadership, in my opinion this isn't the behaviour of an honest upfront company, and they should rather deal with their mistakes in a more professional manner.

Absolutely horrific experience with Martin's in Wokingham. We put in an offer which we were told was accepted. Then we were asked to provide proof of our financial status, which we did along with our solicitor details.
Received an email saying that the vendor had had other offers and that they were legally obliged to give them to the vendor. Then received an email saying there'd been a higher offer.
We replied with another offer but have been ghosted since. No reply to our email, not returning any of my calls.

Thank you so much for all your help in finding us a suitable rental property. We immediately noticed the difference between Martin & Co compared to other agents we had contacted. You took the time to get to know us and what our needs were before asking the generic qualification questions. That made us feel at ease and confident that we wanted to continue our journey with you. You have kept us informed about our application and both Rosemary and Meghan have been a delight to talk to.
We are living in very difficult times, so to find a company who have excellent ambassadors for their brand and values is refreshing.
We would have no hesitation in recommending Martin & Co to any potential tenants and landlords as our experience has been brilliant.

Comments on Agent Fees
I find all estate agents fees totaly inapropriate to the actuall work involved.
I advertised my house through three (one of which was an online organisation) agents at different times over a period of 14 months. Over that period of time i had 18 viewings of which 14 were worthwhile, 4 couples seemed to have nothing to do that day.
I checked with local estate agents to see what the market was like after a couple of months on the first two occasions of advertising my house. Their data all showed they were selling lots of flats and semi detached houses, however in the £650,000 to £875 000 range hardly anything, this appeared to be due to two things Brexit and Stamp duty, plus peoples expectations of buying a 4 bedroom detached house in Wokingham with at least a 70 foot garden for around £600,000. Not a chance. Houses over the £900,000 threshold moved quite quickly.
They all tried their best at the time
Paul Draper found a nice family who after a bit of a problem their sale fell through, came back. He was efficient and kept me informed at all stages of the process. I would say he would be a benefit to anyone selling in the Wokingham area.
