Coleman Estates in short

Coleman Estates is a Wellington estate and letting agent working from Church Street, with sales, lettings and valuation routes on its site and a history stretching back to the late nineties. What stands out is price transparency: landlord charges are published, from Tenant Find tiers to a stated management rate with the VAT position.

Customers rate the firm highly: 4.8 from 518 Google reviews, among the deepest customer records in this round. There is no other review source on record, so the Google record carries the story alone. The limited company has been active for more than twenty-five years.

Our view is that Coleman Estates suits sellers and landlords who want an experienced Wellington firm with its landlord scale on show and redress on the register. What counts against it is the missing sale commission rate and cover, neither of which is stated on the pages checked.
