Fantastic experience: After using their rental services fo some time, they were the first choice for the sale of the property. It was a bit of a process as the property was old but they were patient with all my questions and Chloe was always pleased to help. Thank you Scott & Stapleton.
Thank you. All the best in the future.
Fantastic experience: Huge thanks to Chloe and Rob for their help, patience and dedication over the last 4 months. Always great to know you are in very safe and experienced hands. HIGHLY RECOMMEND
Thank you for your review, always a pleasure to assist.
Fantastic experience: I have been renting my flats through Scott and Stapleton for over 10 years. As usual, my most recent experience has been outstanding. The whole process was smooth and efficient and I was provided with a number of suitable tenants. Many thanks to Rob and Millie for their excellent advice and support throughout.
Fantastic experience: Very efficient prompt service and a special mention for Elle Little
Fantastic experience: I’ve had a great experience with this company - professional and responsive. Each of them has been excellent to work with, always helpful and supportive. Highly recommend!
Negative experience: Not a great service the platform for checking reference is a nightmare mare left homeless after giving notice to prior landlord
Positive experience: Good service received. The process of renting the property was easy to follow from viewing to finalising the date of moving in. Good support service from the team in terms of keeping in contact and keeping things on track and moving at a good pace. Thank you
Fantastic experience: When my mum passed we needed to obtain a valuation for Probate purposes. We contacted 3 local Estate Agents the third of which was Rob Kahl from Scott and Stapleton. His professionalism immediately stood out. His relaxed style put us at ease during this stressful time. On this basis we decided to choose the company to act on our behalf for the sale. He was up front with the fees and was the only agent to advise us of the added VAT costs.We were kept up to date at every point. Viewings were arranged within a short period and we accepted an offer from the fourth prospective buyer. Completion took place 6 months after listing. Rob and his team had to contend with many rental properties coming to market as a result of tax changes for landlords. They worked so hard for us. I would thoroughly recommend Scott and Stapleton to anyone buying or selling property in this area. Thank you again Rob
Negative experience: Poor communication, broken promises. Holds on to your money and do not complete any works.
Negative experience: I came across Scott & Stapleton last year when they took over the management of Leigh Marina, my advice is stay well clear, and do not use Scott & Stapleton. Adele Moore is so rude, she has no customer service skills whatsoever and they most certainly do not act in the best interest of the customer. They are a shambles. This organisation is horrific, do not deal with them.
Negative experience: I don't recommend this agency!!! They're very unprofessional, they was very unfair with me I don't know why!!! I was applied for a rent 1 bedroom flat, I was the first person applied and called them plenty of time, every time I called them they said someone gonna call me but I didn't get any call from them. Finally again I called them requesting to book the flat but they saying fully booked now!!!!!! How can this possible that I was fullfill all the requirements they wanted and I have exellent credit score, I don't have any kids or pets, I was ready to pay deposit whatever they want. Truely it was very rediculas and very very unfair. Please don't do this. This's so unfair!!!!!!
Fantastic experience: Our agent Elizabeth was extremely helpful and welcoming throughout the process. From my experiences of moving this was by far the smoothest and stress free of them all.
Fantastic experience: I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to Scott & Stapleton for their outstanding service in helping me secure my current flat. Anthony and Eli, in particular, went above and beyond to support me throughout the entire process. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and prompt communication made the whole experience incredibly smooth and stress-free. Thank you all once again for your support.
Fantastic experience: Professional, efficient and personable service. They certainly do go beyond the extra mile. I would definitely recommend.
Negative experience: I called the state agent three time making an enquiry about property and they told me they’re gonna call me back and I never got a phone call back Poole Customer service I’ll never recommend them to anyone
Fantastic experience: Had excellent service from Anthony. Really went the extra mile for my wife and I.

Fantastic experience: My family and I had an excellent experience renting from Scott and Stapleton for almost 2 year. Extremely profession, friendly and supportive and would massively recommend. Adele was our property manager throughout and can’t recommend highly enough
Fantastic experience: I used Scott & Stapleton to sell my mum's bungalow, the service I received was excellent from Chloe & Rob & all involved, even tho there was a few hic ups with buyers they acted very professionally & with understanding, there was no hassling when I first got estate agents round to access my property plus I was recommended them from a friend. So I would recommend them now.
Fantastic experience: I recently rented a property with Scott & Stapleton working with Anthony & Yvette. They have both been very kind and supportive, while I have been going through change and the process of arranging contracts and moving has been very smooth :)
Fantastic experience: Having rented a policy through S&S all staff friendly and attentive. If there was a problem, it was dealt with quickly and a follow up to make sure all was sorted. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: We recently went through the process of renting a property with Scott & Stapleton and the whole process was amazing. We had Anthony Miller helping us through and we couldn’t have done it without him. He was professional and friendly throughout. For first time renters, the whole experience was a breeze!

Fantastic experience: My experience of renting my home with Scott & Stapleton has been extremely positive, mostly thanks to Anthony's expertise, professionalism and efficiency. He's a pleasure to work with and on the odd occasions I've had an issue, it is always resolved in a timely fashion, with approval from myself and my tenants.
Fantastic experience: I dealt with Anthony at Scott & Stapleton for my recent move and I could not have been happier with the service I received. Anthony showed incredible empathy to my situation and without him I would not be sitting happily in my new surroundings right now. To top this he was also very diligent and professional during the viewing and screening processes. He is a credit to the company and I am sure he will go far. Thanks again for your help. Aaron Lucas
Fantastic experience: I've been blown away by Anthony and the supporting team at Scott and Stapleton! From the moment i heard Anthony speaking to prospective tenants about a neighbouring property, i knew i had to have him rent out my own flat. Firstly, he sent me full details of the service on email. Then we arranged a visit, once i'd refreshed and tidied the flat. He was super informative, super efficient and had a lovely nature. No question was too much. He took photos and the ad went out a day later. Day after that the flat was rented! Two weeks later, having fulfilled all the legal requirements, completed tests and checks, the tenant is moving in today. I've just signed the contract! Simple, stress free process from start to finish, very impressive. Thank you all so much! I would very highly recommend.
Negative experience: We had a horrible experience while letting a flat in Southend-on-sea. Initially when I approach them the agent was very polite and co-operative and showed me the flat and made several promises to us that they will look after the property and solve maintenance problems in future. After renting the flat when some maintenance issue emerged, and I called them, I came to know they are no longer looking after it and the landlord deal everything. There response was very harsh and unprofessional. unfortunately the landlord was very difficult to deal with and I had great trouble with maintenance issues throughout next three years of tenancy. Eventually I didn't get my deposit back as the landlord claimed several lame excuses like repainting minor scratch and so on. I felt I have been played false by Scott & stapleton who denied all responsibility.
Fantastic experience: We rented our flat with Scott and Stapleton and they were always following up and checking up that the Landlord had taken the necessary steps to rectify the situation. They were regular property inspections to ensure all was well. Great job they did!
Fantastic experience: I needed to find a home fairly quickly due to a family bereavement. Lois and Anthony were incredible. They were understanding of our needs and helped us find and move into our new home in a matter of weeks. I would highly recommend Scott and Stapleton; we feel incredibly fortunate that we have found a lovely place to live.
Fantastic experience: Scott and Stapleton Lettings were efficient and very helpful with letting our flat. I would highly recommend them.
Fantastic experience: Great service from Yvette in helping sort out a recent problem in my rented flat. She was very patient when things didn't go to plan and great at keeping me updated on progress. Many thanks and happy to report that everything is now resolved.
Fantastic experience: Amazing from the first contact!
Fantastic experience: I recently purchased a property from Scott and Stapleton and the service they provided was 5 star! We first made contact with Rob who arranged our first viewing. The communication was excellent and I was kept up to date regularly. Chloe Mitchell took over and looked after the progression of my purchase, liaising with myself, the seller and our solicitors. Chloe was brilliant and to top it off she brought over a lovely bottle of bubbly and a balloon congratulating us on completion! Would 100% recommend. Thanks again!
Fantastic experience: This is the estate agent to go too! Amazing from start to finish. Communication has been amazing, and Chloe has been a star helping, supporting - nothing has been too much or little. Definitely a 5*+++
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend. Anthony at Scott & Stapleton helped us find our new home. He was very friendly and the communication was always clear, accurate and helpful. An excellent experience.
Fantastic experience: We recently moved into Leigh from London and Scott & Stapleton were more then helpful in helping us find and secure our new home. Their communication has been great and allowed us to view the property prior to our move in date to measure spaces for furniture which was a massive help! Couldn’t recommend them enough
Fantastic experience: Scott & Stapleton have been absolutely fantastic in helping me move into my first home. Anthony and Lois have been brilliant, excellent communication and very professional. Highly recommended, thank you!
Fantastic experience: I am very grateful to Chloe from start to finish on the sale of my Mothers property. She has been the middle person between solicitors and myself to get this sold as quick as possible. I am truly grateful. Receiving flowers as well was just a lovely touch. Thank you. Xx
Fantastic experience: Such a pleasant experience renting with Scott and Stapleton. Anthony did a fantastic job of making the tenancy happen in time. He was very patient, helpful and a delight to work with. Would highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend Scott and Stapleton enough. We’ve rented from them for 3 years nearly and they are super efficient at getting back to any queries and no job is ever too small. Yvette, Adele and Tom have mostly dealt with us during our time with them and they have all been outstanding. The whole team are friendly, kind and efficient at all times. Their contractors are also super helpful and kind, and all repairs needed have been done with such care. We are so sad to be leaving rental with this team, but would recommend them whole heartedly to anyone who wants to rent in southend.
Negative experience: Bad experience from start to finish during a 12 month tenancy managed by Scott and Stapleton. Made to feel like a convict rather than a paying tenant. I rented for 8 years throughout London and have always had good relationships with agencies, being fair and reasonable from both sides in reaching agreements whenever minor issues have arisen. However, receiving rude and deliberately abrasive calls from S&S staff threatening to charge extra days rent due to an end of tenancy clean unfortunately delaying the key-return after I had already made them aware, no communication from them whatsoever throughout the 12 month tenancy and now on my third week of them withholding my deposit whilst they source contractors for very small, minimal jobs is unbelievable.
Fantastic experience: Chloe was particularly helpful throughout us buying a house that Scott & Stapleton were selling - there were a few issues along the way with the chain and Chloe could not have been more helpful, friendly and efficient in working with me to speed things up and keep us in the loop! 5 star
Fantastic experience: Awesome estate agents! Great service, such friendly and welcoming staff. Anthony was amazing and when he was not available, somebody else seamlessly slotted in to help. I cannot recommend them highly enough!!
Fantastic experience: Great service from Anthony Miller as always. Good advice and efficient service renting out an apartment on our behalf.
Fantastic experience: A brilliant, professional service. Best agency in the area by a country mile.
Fantastic experience: Sterling staff polite people
Fantastic experience: Anthony was very helpful for us in the process of renting our new property. We received a lot of help from the team at Scott & Stapleton and they all have been very kind. Would highly recommend them!
Fantastic experience: Anthony Miller my lettings agent was super friendly and helpful in getting me to secure my new property, even with the time constraints I was faced with. Would most definitely recommend.
Fantastic experience: Anthony went above in beyond in helping secure the right tenant for our property, handling the whole process brilliantly from start to finish. Would highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: We rented a 2 bedroom property with them and Anthony was extremely helpful throughout the process. They always have a wide range of good quality properties and would definitely recommend them.
Fantastic experience: We used these guys to buy our dream home. They were so so helpful, patient and knowledgeable. They are exactly what you want from an estate agent. Rob is an absolute gentleman. They give estate agents a GOOD name.
Fantastic experience: From the first meeting to completion of the sale, some 6 months later, Chloe could not have been more helpful, professional, friendly and caring. She liaised between the buyer and myself, kept us informed at every step and really went the extra mile. I cannot praise the service Chloe offered highly enough.
Hi Wendy, thank you so much for the lovely review. All the best in your new home :)
Fantastic experience: I moved from Scotland, another letting agent company bailed out on me, a few days before moving. Scott and Stapleton assisted to get a new place, although, it was not a smooth process, due to the circumstances, Scott and Stapleton did all they could, to ensure we were temporarily placed somewhere for 6weeks. Anthony and Sam were so helpful! The landlord for the property was not relatable, however, no fault on the part of Scott and Stapleton!
Hi Bola, thank you for taking the time to review! All the best :)
Fantastic experience: Chloe at Stapleton was easy and friendly to deal with and always kept me informed of any progress. I highly recommend this estate agents and would definitely use again!
Hi Sam, thanks so much for taking the time to review. Looking forward to seeing you soon :)
Fantastic experience: Amazing services and got me in the property even earlier than expected! Thanks Anthony!!
Hi Doreen! Thanks so much for the review. All the best :)
Fantastic experience: A very professional and friendly service. Exactly what you need When selling your property. I have no problem in recommending the team. You will be in very good hands.
Hi Christopher! Thanks so much for the review
Negative experience: Not convinced - no customer service. Think person I spoke to was drunk
Hi John, sorry to hear you weren't satisfied with the service. Please feel free to email us at [email protected] with more detail and we'll happily try to find a resolution for you. To address your other point - there is no possible way a member of staff was drinking or drunk on the job.
Fantastic experience: Anthony and the lettings team at Scott & Stapleton have been fantastic to deal with. They are proactive, diligent and above all friendly. I would highly recommend them to other landlords in the Leigh-on-Sea area.
Hi Jonathan! Thank you so much for the review
Fantastic experience: Working in the property finance industry myself I am fully aware of what makes a good property agent. Sam and the team at Scott & Stapleton are not good property agents...they are superb property agents! Communication, professionalism and a real "can do" attitude means that I will definitely use them again
Thanks so much for the review, Richard. Looking forward to working with you again
Fantastic experience: Our contact was Anthony Miller who was extremely courteous and helpful. His professional service has been very efficient and professional. We would recommend this Company based on our experience working with them.
Thank you so much for the review
Negative experience: From a massive GDPR breach (they divulged personal information of another tenant to me) to not having any hot water for 6 days (and refusing to take any responsibility, putting the blame squarely on the landlord), this company is shockingly bad. Customer service is non-existent. Avoid.
Fantastic experience: When looking to find a new rental property I found Sam and Scott & Stapleton to offer an outstanding service. Sam is friendly, professional and knowledgeable - I could not recommend her enough. Sam is an expert on the local letting market and offered invaluable information to help me with my new tenancy. I was able to secure a fantastic property, quickly with no hiccups along the way. Great team with a great service!
Thanks for the review Craig! :)
Positive experience: As a property owner who has used Scott & Stapleton for any years as my letting agent I have always found their service & staff to be extremely efficient & friendly Ann Robinson
Many thanks for your review, much appreciated :)
Positive experience: Very good fancy place,everyone tries to look really important, however I guess if yiu don't come and make them big profit you are on the second track and low customer service. Rented property through them. Not that their provider did not switch everything over as they said it will, but they did not even made sure that their old tenants properly discontinued their bills and energies from the property. Not to mention that if you call and ask them to pass anything on it will never happen
Negative experience: I had a poor experience with Scott & Stapleton. Everything is automated and they don't really take responsibility for the service they deliver. I found them unhelpful and pretty much like every other agent; they are good until they have your money. The image they project is a long way from their offering.
Positive experience: Cosy local pub with good luncheon food
Negative experience: They should be investigated by the authorities they're such scammers.
Negative experience: Typical estate agents. I drove 80 miles to see a property to be told it has already sold? Thanks for wasting my time & money.
Negative experience: shoddy and unreliable dont tell u when your proerty has fallen through and u then have to ask several times for your money back
Fantastic experience: Great service throughout the sale of our property. We will be recommending Scott and Stapleton to friends and family! Thank you Rob and Lisa.
Fantastic experience: Anthony was great in renting out our Westcliff Apartment they were very professional and have no hesitation in recommending this company.
Fantastic experience: Superb service from Lisa and Rob. We were constantly updated and they were majorly efficient with our sale. Furthermore, they are delightful and ease a stressful situation. The best in my opinion.
Negative experience: Scott & Stapleton are a truly appalling company with little substance and a deluded opinion of itself. If you want decent service and lower costs / charges then go elsewhere. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
Fantastic experience: Highly recommend ,Lisa and Rob kept me informed and updated all way through from valuation, marketing and eventual sale of property
Negative experience: 1 star understatement. I lost the property i was about to rent and £480 (plus £20 change they just decided to keep after my £500 bank transfer) for making a mistake on my application form. A total con. Avoid
