Mannleys review
Assessed in Letting agents in Telford
Active
Trading as Mannleys Limited · 23A Market Street, Wellington, Telford, Shropshire, TF1 1DT · Service area: Telford, Wellington
Mannleys in short
Mannleys is an independent sales and lettings agent on Market Street in Wellington, with Mannleys Limited behind it. The firm sits on the Property Ombudsman register for sales and lettings. Its site carries a run of landlord reviews describing re-lets within a week with regular inspection feedback, which is what marks Mannleys out as the area's young independent.
Beyond lettings, the record shows sales, management, commercial, land and valuation work from the Market Street office. The stated patch covers Wellington and Telford, among the tightest patches in the round. That close-in patch suits Wellington landlords who want an independent a short walk from the town centre. The site sets out its services with landlord reviews and contact routes.
Customer evidence lags the rest of the round: the Google listing holds 4.4 from 170 reviews, the softest headline in the round. That means the assessment leans on fewer reported lettings than any rival, so the register entry matters all the more. Google is the only public review source held for this firm, so the listing itself is where the detail behind the headline sits.
Our verdict is that it suits landlords who want a young Wellington independent with register cover and an active company record. The gaps are a published fee scale and insurance detail, which the site does not carry. In our judgement that register cover is what keeps the young firm competitive despite the missing scale.
Our verdict
Our judgement: Mannleys suits landlords who want a young independent in Wellington with register cover and a company record since 2016 [2] [3]. The rating is lower than others in this round at 4.4 across 170 reviews [4]. The gaps are a published fee scale and insurance detail, which the site does not carry [1].

Questions about Mannleys
Is Mannleys any good?
On the evidence, a young independent with register cover and fair reviews: 4.4 from 170 Google reviews, a company record since 2016 and landlord stories of fast re-lets on its site. The gaps are a published fee scale and insurance detail. Read the full review, then ask for both in writing before comparing.
Is Mannleys on an ombudsman register?
Mannleys Sales and Lettings sits on the Property Ombudsman register at its Market Street address, which can be checked yourself. No other scheme is stated on the website — no ARLA, RICS, Safeagent or client money membership — so none can be sourced. Ask the firm what client money cover it holds.
What does Mannleys charge?
The site talks of competitive fees and a free valuation but publishes no fee scale, rates or VAT position. That missing scale is what holds the firm back against priced rivals. Ask for the full landlord scale in writing before the valuation visit, and compare it line by line. Treat a reluctance to send the scale as information in itself.
Where does Mannleys work?
The firm works from Market Street in Wellington town centre, covering Wellington and Telford. Wellington landlords sit closest to this young independent, a short walk from the town centre. Send your property postcode with the enquiry to confirm you are covered. Landlords outside the patch should confirm cover before booking a valuation.
How is Mannleys ranked?
It was researched for our September round but sits outside the top ten, marked down on customer evidence and pricing clarity. We looked first at what customers say. Read the full review, then compare its quote with a priced Wellington rival. Shortlist two agents and compare their written quotes side by side.
How do I get a letting quote from Mannleys?
Start with the firm's contact routes and ask for the full landlord scale in writing with the VAT position, since none is published. The quote should name the management rate, any set-up or renewal charges and every extra beside them. Take that scale before the valuation visit, then judge it against one priced Wellington quote.
What do Mannleys customers say?
The held evidence is a single public source: Google, where the firm holds 4.4 from 170 reviews, the softest headline in the round. That means fewer reported lettings sit behind the headline than at any rival, so the register entry carries extra importance. Read the listing itself for the recurring themes, and weigh what landlords praise against the gaps named on this page.
How does Mannleys compare with the others in this round?
Our reading is that Mannleys is the young-independent alternative to the priced Wellington firms, trading openness and review depth for a register entry and a town-centre office. Coleman answers with priced packages and the heaviest evidence of any Wellington-based firm, while Your Move answers with a national network from the same street. Get its scale first, then judge it against one published quote.
