Frank and his team offered sound advice on our sale and Jodie was very helpful when we needed information. The presentation pack for the property looked good. The estate agents acted very professionally and promoted the property both in the shop window and online. The photographs of the property were good and helped advertise it.

We've had a great experience so far with Winkworth in Crediton, especially Emily and Kathy. I really appreciate the person first approach they have, which makes the whole renting process a lot more human and a lot easier to do. They've got great properties, a very clear website, excellent staff, and seem to be very fair. Highly recommend

I recently started working with Winkworth and have had a very positive experience so far. In particular, I would like to highlight my manager, Emily, who has been exceptionally attentive, responsive, and professional throughout our interactions. Her willingness to help, combined with the speed and thoroughness of her replies, has made the process smooth and efficient. I look forward to continuing our cooperation.

Our experience with Winkworth Crediton Estate & Letting Agents was brilliant from start to finish. Our property had been on the market with another agent for over 12 months with no success. Catherine from Winkworth came to view our property, offered helpful tips and advice, and then listed our house with them. Within just two months, they had successfully sold it. Frank then took over the process of handling the sale and was a real superstar. He couldn’t have been more helpful or understanding, keeping everything running smoothly. He was excellent at managing everything—from liaising with solicitors to keeping us informed—right through to the day we picked up the keys. Thank you very much for everything. What a fantastic team you are!

Emily at Winkworths , has supported our search for a tenant and has been very helpful and professional with the process. Emily answered our queries both written and verbal with clarity and in a friendly manner. Timescales were realistic; as we started the search for a new tenant just before Christmas. Other staff in the Crediton office are also very helpful. Winkworths has been a good experience in finding a new tenant.

I first started renting through WInkworth seven and a half years ago, when I first moved to Devon from the West Midlands and recently bought the property I was renting through them. My experience with the Crediton branch has been pretty great. Viewing was arranged around me getting down to Devon whilst still living in Birmingham and they made the process so simple and smooth. Anything that has needed to be looked at in that time was sorted out quickly and the tradespeople that they have contracts with are very friendly and trustworthy. Winkworth were great when the second tenant left the property, making sure that paperwork was up to date etc, which was a stress off my mind. They have been professional and friendly throughout and when we were informed of the landlord wishing to sell the property, they were very helpful in helping us to arrange purchasing straight from the landlord so that we are able to keep our home. Communications are great both from the rental and the purchasing side. When there were times that inspections or gas safe checks due, Winkworth were always happy to work around me and the times I would be home, which was always appreciated. Thank you so much to the Winkworth team for making both my move to Devon and the transition to buying my home smooth and straightforward.

We have been searching for a rental property for some time now and the efforts you now have to put in is completely different since the last time we had to some 20 years ago but Emily has taken all the stress away from us. Emily has been a positive force throughout this latest journey and always had answers to questions and how to progress to the next stage of the process. We now have secured a property and feel this might not be the case had we not had the support from Emily. Thank you so much Emily for your kindness along the way. Fantastic. Lee & Glynis

We cannot express how grateful we are for Catherine's support during our house purchase. From start to finish, she was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and attentive to every detail. She guided us through the entire process, explaining each step clearly and helping us navigate challenges with ease. Catherine was always available to answer questions, provide advice, and offer reassurance. Her professionalism and dedication truly made a difference. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for expert guidance in purchasing a home. It'll be very strange not talking to yourself and the rest of the Winkworth team everyday. Thank you, Catherine! 😊

We have recently sold our house through Catherine Smith of Winkworth, Crediton. She recommended and achieved a higher price for our property than the other local agents who valued it and couldn’t have been more helpful and professional throughout. We would definitely recommend Winkworth Crediton as all the staff we came into contact with were excellent and Catherine especially so. Martyn and Sarah Rogers
