Mannleys in short

Mannleys is an independent sales and lettings agent on Market Street in Wellington, with Mannleys Limited behind it since 2016. 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.

Customer reviews lag the rest of the round: the Google listing holds 4.4 from 170 reviews. 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. For landlords who prefer an independent to a chain, the register entry is the reassurance to check.

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.

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.

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. What customers say counts most toward every score. Read the full review, then compare its quote with a priced Wellington rival.
