I highly recommend Thornley Groves to anyone currently going through the stressful moving process! I was seen to by the Thornley Groves Southern Gateway Office, in particular by Sophie, she was lovely and highly professional. Sophie sold the property to me very quickly and answered all my questions, in addition to reassuring me with any of my concerns. All paper work was sent to me and queries were answered very quickly! To say I found and signed for somewhere in less than a week is incredible!

Re. Apartment 135 Salford Town Hall
The decision to change agents from X1 Management/X1 Management to Thornley Groves (lettings & management services) was initially difficult. That is, I am based in Newcastle upon Tyne without an understanding of the performance of Manchester Estate Agents. However, my wife and I initially spoke to Chris Willey and we knew straight away that we were dealing with someone who exhibited a higher degree of professionalism than we were used to. Our experience with the Thornley Groves staff that we have dealt with so far has mirrored this enhanced attitude and service

Excellent service for international students and professionals.
Thornley groves are really impressed me since I could find a great property for me and my family to live in Manchester in an easy way. Sophie Stephenson is a great staff and very responsive. Finding accommodation for overseas students with family like me is quite challenging process. However Thornley Groves and Sophie is really helpfull and I find it easy to find a great property to rent in Manchester with the assistance of them.

I have just finished dealing with Samantha at Thornley Groves who dealt with the process of letting a building in Manchester city centre. From start to finish, i had such an amazing experience dealing with her and Matthew. They came round to the building countless times to help with the design aspect and offered sound advice throughout. Full credit also goes to Justin and the rest of the team who have filled up the building in no time. Always available, always helping and always with a smile!! No need to look further for a letting agent who is there for you! Thanks guys.
