Coleman Estates in short
Coleman Estates is a Wellington sales and lettings agent working from a single Church Street office, trading as Coleman Estates Ltd. The site presents a long-standing lettings specialist, redress sits on the ombudsman register, and the landlord page states Safeagent accreditation with client money protection. Tenant-find fees are published as a scale by rent band, which few rivals match.
The record shows sales, lettings and management from the single Church Street office, with commercial and land routes in the wider business. The stated patch runs from Telford and Wellington out to Stafford, Broseley and Albrighton. Everything goes through one local team. The site names the Wellington team and sets out landlord packages beside the property search.
Customer reviews are excellent, with 4.8 from 518 Google reviews, the sole public source we hold. The company record stretches back to the late nineties with its registered office at the branch, and free sales and lettings valuations are on offer. That is one of the two largest review bases in the round. Few branches in the round pair that score with that volume.
Our view is that Coleman Estates suits Wellington sellers and landlords who want one local office with deep roots and published tenant-find charges. What counts against it is the sales side, where no fee scale is published, and insurance cover, which is not stated on the pages checked. That combination is what puts it second of the ten.
Our verdict
Our view is that Coleman Estates suits sellers and landlords who want a single Wellington office with a company record going back to 1999 and published tenant-find fees [3] [5]. Review volume is high at 518 Google reviews at 4.8 [6]. The sales side publishes no fee scale, and insurance cover is not stated [1] [3].

Questions about Coleman Estates
Is Coleman Estates any good?
On the evidence, yes for Wellington sellers and landlords who want a single local office: it ranks second of the ten estate agents in our September round and holds 4.8 from 518 Google reviews. The sales fee scale is missing and insurance is not stated. Read the full review, then ask for the sales fee in writing.
Is Coleman Estates on the ombudsman register?
Yes. Coleman Estates is listed on the Property Ombudsman register, and its landlord page states Safeagent accreditation with client money protection. That covers the legal redress check and the landlord money check together. Search the trading name on the register yourself before you instruct.
What does Coleman Estates charge?
Tenant-find fees are published as a scale starting at £600 plus VAT by rent band, and sales and lettings valuations are free. Sales commission itself is not published, so that figure only emerges at valuation. Ask for the full written schedule with the VAT position.
Where does Coleman Estates work?
From Church Street in Wellington, covering Telford with Stafford, Broseley and Albrighton named in its patch. Send your postcode with the enquiry to confirm you are covered, and ask which negotiator handles your street. Ask which negotiator covers your street and whether viewings run at weekends.
How is Coleman Estates ranked?
It ranks second of the ten estate agents in our September round, picked for Wellington sellers and landlords wanting one local office. Read the table and the cards, then get two or three quotes on the same scope. Firms are listed in score order.
How do I get a quote from Coleman Estates?
Book a free sales or lettings valuation at the Church Street office, then ask for the sales fee in writing. Tenant-find fees are published by rent band, but the selling commission only emerges at valuation. Compare it against two rivals on the same scope before you instruct. Send the address, property type and timescale with the first enquiry, so the valuation lands on a real brief.
What do customers say about Coleman Estates?
Customers rate it excellently on the one public source we hold: 4.8 from 518 Google reviews. That is one of the two largest review bases in the round. Read recent reviews yourself, reading what sellers and landlords describe rather than the headline alone. Take the figure as a starting point, then read the written detail behind it before you decide.
