What our customers say about us

Paul C
Have just used Murrays to successfully sell our home and feel compelled to share the extremely positive experience we’ve had with them throughout the process.Raph and Annabel at the Minchinhampton office have been a dream to deal with. Warm, friendly, helpful, supportive and giving great advice to ensure that we both, marketed our property to the best it could be and to then navigate the process of offers, followed by the ups and downs of conveyancing!I’ve dealt with many agents over the years and I can honestly say this is the first truly positive experience I’ve had.Murrays professionalism, local knowledge and reach really stand out and I’d wholeheartedly recommend them on the sales front.
Christine Green
My sister and I instructed Murrays estate agents in Stroud to deal with the sale of my late mother’s house and were very pleased with their highly efficient service. Callum Jones dealt with matters and was always available to discuss matters. He and Richard Murray gave us good, clear considered advice at every point of the transaction and liaised with the buyers at key points to ensure matters went smoothly. They also have excellent local knowledge and produced a very impressive sale package. The whole team is highly professional, pleasant to deal with and my sister and I felt able to trust them to produce the right result. We would highly recommend them.
Robert Newman
Sarah and her team have let and managed my cottage for several years now, and have been first class. I initially managed the cottage as lived next door, but when we moved, I found the whole process much more difficult. Murrays have sourced, vetted, and managed the tenants and organised repairs when required, whilst keeping me fully informed. I highly recommend Sarah and her team. Thank you
Alice Lowrie
I have used Murrys as a tenant and a landlady for 5 years. Sarah has been absolutely incredible and has gone 'the extra mile' on numerous occasions. She is extremely experienced, professional, supportive, kind, patient and efficient. I am genuinely sad to be saying goodbye to Sarah. I 100% recommend Murrays letting department. Worth every penny as a landlady/landlord. Thanks Sarah! You're a star.
elisabeth andrews
We have bought two houses and sold one through Murray's over the past nine years so have absolutely no hesitation in recommending their services, either as a buyer or a seller - they know every inch of this area! Everyone we have dealt with (Callum most recently) has been professional, helpful, friendly and positive. We are hoping not to move again for a while but if we do, we know where to go .... thanks very much to all the team
Alex Owen
I just wanted to write a review to thank Callum and Andrea from Murray’s Stroud who were quite frankly amazing during my recent house sale and purchase. There was quite a stressful last minute delay and Callum was superb, chasing both ends of the chain and most importantly keeping me updated. I can’t thank him enough for his persistence and brilliant communications throughout the entire process and for helping get exchange of contracts over the line before the chain collapsed. Thank you SO much Callum! 😊
Andy Brown
We recently purchased a property through Murray's in Painswick. Throughout James and Jennifer were really helpful dealing with our queries, and on the initial viewing where we had some challenges getting there on time due to a road closure James went out of his way to organise a viewing an hour later. A really professional local agent and well worth registering with and following on social media to get previews of properties coming to market. We would highly recommendAndy and Kate Brown
Luke Hopwood
I cannot speak highly enough of Callum and the entire team at Murrays. They have exceeded my expectations in every way, and I highly recommend their services to anyone in need of a reliable and dedicated estate agent. Thank you for making this purchase a seamless and pleasant experience.
denise mellersh
A huge thank you to Callum Jones who works at the Stroud office - he has been really helpful and efficient, communicating regularly and enabling exchange of contracts to happen when it seemed like we would never get there. Really appreciate all the effort made - very impressive service.
Johnny Acton
Our planned purchase of a property through Murrays in Stroud has unfortunately collapsed for a variety of reasons. But I want to put it on the record that the staff, notably Callum, Andrea and Annette, have been unfailingly polite, helpful and pleasant to deal with throughout the process
Steve Lea
The team at the Stroud office have recently sold our house and we have nothing but praise for the way they have handled a quite difficult sale. Their professionalism and skill has been absolutely great, and nothing has been too much trouble. Would recommend them without hesitation, Richard has been incredibly supportive, and both Andrea and Callum have guided us through the process with ease.
Heidi Bishop
Raph and the Murrays team assisted us with searching, finding and purchasing a house in Minchinhampton, I can't recommend them enough, friendly, professional and approachable from the very start to completion. Thank you Murrays!
Dan Howell
We've recently purchased a house through Murrays, and had a really positive experience. Callum was so helpful throughout the process, with excellent communication which really helped take some of the stress out of a challenging wider chain, and helped see things through to successful completion.
Lauren Thompson
My parents and I recently used Murray’s to sell our properties in Painswick and we couldn’t be happier with the service received.James went above and beyond throughout, accommodating several viewings, reassuring us and keeping all parties informed throughout.In the past I’ve begrudged giving an estate agent commission but the team at Murray’s earned every penny. I can’t recommend them enough, best in the area by far.
Leo Sofer
We just completed on our house in Edge, and James Murray has been an absolute star. The process was long and full of ups and downs, mostly due to our purchaser’s travails. James kept the whole thing moving and was the epitome of a good salesman: keeping all parties informed and keeping the deal together despite the odds.I never really saw how estate agents could justify their high fees, but after this I would say James earned every penny! Over a nine month process he handled every stage efficiently, and he and Jennifer were very pleasant to deal with. Great service!We tried selling this same house in 2016 with another local broker with much less experience and lower fees and it didn’t sell. After 9 months we pulled it off the market and rented it (which actually wasn’t such a bad idea!). But this time around I’m really glad we went with Murrays.
Petra Swift
I started following Murrays Estate Agent on Instagram 6 months ago after a recommendation. Gloucestershire had never been an area we had thought of moving too, but after the detailed daily posts, that not only posted about their properties on the market, but also the local area, from the incredible views to local events, local businesses and the community in general, I persuaded my husband to go and have a look. The posts did not lie, the community was as welcoming and friendly as promised, the views were incredible, even on a dark and drizzly day. To think we would never have looked if it had not been for amazing Instagram posts, we will be back in 2024 to look for our forever home! Thank you
Philip Tomlins
Having used the services of Murrays Estate Agents on numerous occasions during the years I would have no hesitation what so ever in recommending them to future clients.We benefited from Richard and James' extensive knowledge of the property market in the Cotswold and their excellent negotiating skills and sound judgment. The journey from our initial engagement of Murrays to completion was excellent. Always calm and ready to provide good advice and direction they removed any stress taking care of everything to make the whole process seamless.To anyone contemplating the sale of their home I whole heartedly recommend that they contact Murrays first.
Emma Samways
Since moving to the area and hunting for the perfect house I have been obsessed by Murrays Instagram which is the best place to go to see what houses are coming up for sale. I have ended up buying a house from a Murrays client. Raph was amazing chasing when he needed to, but his help during the length negotiation process was really helpful. I felt like they were treating the buyer and seller fairly. I have met and chatted to most of the team while doing viewings etc and they are all so friendly and helpful. Highly recommend buying and selling with Murrays
Louise Kempton
Bought our first home with the help of the wonderful Murrays team. Annette, Andrea, Raph and co always dealt with us with such kindness, care and consideration. Thank you! Looking forward to inviting them round to the house warming!! Xx
Alisdaire Watts
We recently purchased a property through Murray’s estate agents in Painswick. The whole process was outstanding from start to finish, they were incredibly helpful and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble, I highly recommend them. Jayne and Graham Watts.
Lucy Martin
Andrea at Murray's was really helpful when we were having trouble getting replies from our solicitor and updates for a long chain. As a result we were able to exchange so we're really grateful! Would definitely recommend.
Rachel & Jonathan Topps
We have been very happy with the friendly and attentive service that we have received from the whole team at Murrays during the recent sale of our house. It all went very smoothly, thank you so much.
Gill Elias
Andrea at Murrays was amazingly helpful in my house purchase. She moved so quickly whenever there was a sticking point and continued to assist through completion. Incredibly friendly and nothing was too much trouble. The personal assistance made all the difference and helped achieve a record quick sale!
Kirstie Martin
I've just bought my first house through Murrays and am so grateful to have dealt with Andrea over the past few months. She was incredibly efficient, helpful, and knowledgeable about the house, local area, and process. I couldn't have asked for a better house buying experience!
Mark Wheeler
James Murray's handling of both our sale and purchase was pure dynamite. We found ourselves in a complex chain and it was nothing short of a miracle how James got the sale over the line. He kept us regularly updated, anticipating issues before they arose and really understanding the dynamics of a long chain. His knowledge of the local marketplace was second to none and having used other agents in the past, Murrays is in a league of its own. James Murray went the extra mile and beyond.
Rosy Brown
For overall commitment to the cause, patience, understanding and an all around great service. The Minchinhampton team were supportive and informative, keeping us fully up to date throughout both our sale and purchase, highly recommend.
Sally Etherington
Murray's have been excellent at dealing with any queries I have had during the sale of my property and have helped finalise and complete the move during this most unusual lockdown period. Thank you Murray's in Minchinhampton.
Lee Wilson
All of our dealings have been very pleasant. We have really enjoyed the whole experience as it's a big move for us and Murray's have really helped to make it as smooth as possible. We will definitely recommend them.
sally willis
The team at Murrays in Minchinhampton have extensive knowledge of the local market. On top of that their level of service is excellent. They dealt extremely well with my elderly aunts move, always ensuring she was happy at every stage and taking care to take account of her deafness when communicating. We were both very happy and would have no hesitation in recommending them. Not as expensive as you'd think either!
tony betts
What excellent service we received when we sold our house. From the start to finish everything was professional and we were kept well informed throughout the whole selling process. They recomended solicitor and removal company both of which also provided great service. I would certainly recomend Murrays to anyone.
Sally Lamb
An amazing, friendly, local service. They truly have their clients interests at heart in what can sometimes be an up and down journey in buying and selling houses. I would thoroughly recommend them.
