Wow, where do I start, Stan and the Team at Mervyn Smith are fantastic and have been an absolute pleasure to deal with! They are not your typical pushy estate agents, they listen and advise and will do what is in the best interest of their clients. From the first call I made and spoke to Stan right through to to completion last week the service has been exceptional and I would have no hesitation in recommending Mervyn Smith.

Helpful agents in north kingston. Unlike the typical commercial agents, this bunch is helpful, they guide and there properties are priced more sensibly then others in the market.

Absolutely dire viewing experience with this estate agent. The person who showed us around took us to the wrong property and was incredibly rude to us from start to finish, essentially culminating in an open argument. Horrendous.

Stan and his staff are highly experienced, trustworthy, know the local housing market inside out and have a wealth of experience. Selling with them recently I felt in safe hands and communication was good. We achieved over asking price such was the demand to purchase our house and Mervyn Smith managed the whole process professionally and with a hint of humour when required. I would definately use them again in the future and know they command respect within the local community for their knowledge and expertise.

Worst of it's kind. When it comes to viewings, they just suddenly appear inside your home when ever they like, without any notice. Well, sometimes they send you an email 12 hours in advance about change in schedule and expect that it means the residents agree with the new schedule automatically. Most of the time they just come and go as they like. Truly horrible way to do business in this company, no respect towards no one.
