The Modern House Bewertungen 67

I have just sold a mid-century house that had been in my family for 60 years via The Modern House. This estate agent has a good reputation and had sold several neighbouring properties, but I was initially unimpressed by my interactions with its staff and worried that I had made a mistake choosing it, especially as its fees are on the high side. However, as soon as sales advisor Manon Coldicutt took over the process I felt reassured and confident that the house would sell at the price I wanted.
The Modern House’s marketing ensured there was a steady flow of viewings in the first couple of weeks of the house going on the market. Viewings were arranged very efficiently and professional viewing host Marlene was excellent. Several people quickly made offers, so I was able to pick the one that suited me best.
Manon was extremely knowledgeable, her assessments and advice were always sensible, and once I had accepted an offer she worked tirelessly to keep all parties informed of progress and the sale on track. As well as being warm and friendly, she is highly professional and has a clear understanding of the market. I have rarely if ever encountered such brilliant client service, and ultimately my experience was extremely positive, so I have no hesitation in recommending The Modern House and wouldn’t hesitate to use the company again.

My husband and I approached Inigo on the back of a recommendation from other property owners, who have worked with them on marketing their period homes. We went in with an open mind, after carefully selecting them from other prospects and felt that they are arguably the best, on the surface (website perception) to represent this property.
On providing depth and insight to a 260yr+ Georgian home to the Inigo team, showing a beautifully furnished and sympathetically restored property, an email was sent back advising that they 'don't feel they're the right agent'. What exactly are we missing here?! It was felt that little consideration was given in their selection due to the speed at which the outcome email was received, but proceed with caution, as the first encounter with Inigo has not been positive. It may be that whilst the website presents capability and prestige, behind the scenes seems to be a different matter, as the home presented is a no-brainer!
We now feel as though we may well have dodged a potential disaster by going through this agency, just based on this initial encounter. Thank you Inigo.🙏

We sold our house fairly quickly through Modern House and were largely happy with the experience.
They get your property out to a wider market which is a big plus, however the downside of that is that a large number of viewers are just there to take a look because they have seen it on the Modern House, not because they have any intention of moving to the area. A fair amount of last minute cancellations and time wasters.
If selling a property below £500k the fees are very high. They charge a flat fee commission system of £12.5K + VAT for properties below this threshold, this makes the rate of commission an exuberant amount in relation to other estate agents. The other downside of this is that as they receive a flat fee they have zero inclination to get you the highest price going, they get their £15K whatever you sell for, in my mind this means they undervalue to get a quick sale. We didn’t go with their valuation and got two offers at our price!
The sales progressor assigned to us did work hard to achieve our deadline under at times challenging circumstances.
It was all in all a good experience, we got a quick sale and in the time frame we needed, but beware if selling a property under £500k as the Modern House is going to cost you more.

I have been dealing with The modern house from house search to completion and it has been a real success throughout ! Clear communication provided and the staff is wonderful ! Thank you to Manon and Olly whom are very helpful, efficient and proactive throughout!

A complete breath of fresh air. We had been stuck in the doldrums with our previous agent and wish that we had turned to Inigo earlier. Engaged, intelligent, proactive, strategic and reassuring. It actually felt like we were in a team right to the last. A huge thank you to Ollie and David for their belief in the project and their guidance.

Working with the Modern House was the best decision when it came to selling our flat. We worked with their wonderful team, Willo, Harvir and Emily. They are all so genuine, professional and kind. We felt supported throughout the process and they presented our house in the best possible way. Emily went above and beyond to give us advice and help us with our ongoing purchase as well, which we are soo thankful for. I would highly recommend working with them.

I couldn’t have asked for a better estate agent to support me in the sale of my house in Hackney — particularly given a very disappointing experience with a prior agent. As a first-time seller navigating a complex process in challenging market conditions, there was a lot to take on board and many uncertainties along the way. Manon combined clear-headed professionalism with support and empathy throughout, and was consistently good-natured and warm in all our interactions. In particular, she handled the final negotiations with great skill and judgment, guiding the sale to a better outcome than I expected, even though I didn’t entirely understand the strategy at the time. When complications arose just before exchange, she remained calm, patient, and constructive while I was feeling anxious.

The Modern House also have a very well-organized way of arranging viewings, using dedicated viewing hosts to show the property. My hostess, Isadora, was absolutely excellent — her background in architecture helped her appreciate and communicate the key features of the house, and she was a wonderful ambassador for it throughout.

I’d heartily recommend The Modern House without hesitation.

We have just completed on the sale of our house with Inigo and cannot recommend them enough. We were under offer within a few weeks of marketing. Manon managed the sale process for us and she really went above and beyond to make sure things went smoothly. From start to finish the process was seamless. We were also over the moon with the photos taken by one of their incredible photographers who really captured the period features in our house very well. Overall we were extremely impressed with Inigo and will certainly use them again in the future if ever we need to. Thanks very much.

Manon, Isadora and the team at The Modern House have made the purchase of my first home absolutely seamless. From start to finish they were incredibly helpful, professional, and efficient. I can't recomment working with them highly enough.

We dealt directly with Olivia at Inigo on our house sale - and she was a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. She went above and beyond any agent we’ve ever used before, communication was excellent and we felt heard on any and all queries that came up… and they will always come up with house sales! Having sold numerous properties before , this experience was like night & day. We could not recommend Olivia enough. The Modern House / Inigo should be chuffed to have her. The team who worked on the viewings were also great, as was the photography - only positive feedback from us both. Tanya & Nat, London E2

I have sold a London flat and a house in Kent with TMH/Inigo, and both times the experience was outstanding. They are head and shoulders above other agents I have worked with.
From the appraisal through to the sales progression, the communication and advice is exemplary. In a challenging market it is so important to find agents you can trust and who are pragmatic. Thank you Emily and team!

Really good from start to finish. They were always able to schedule viewing times that suited us, even at short notice. Emily McEwan was so helpful and encouraging throughout - once we had the survey results she made sure that communication was smooth between us and the seller, which really helped avoid any misunderstandings. They really were a cut above all the other estate agent we encountered - we never felt any pressure, and they really seem to enjoy their work. Great job.

The Inigo team sold our thatched cottage within just six weeks, despite the quiet housing market. I was genuinely impressed by the team’s high standards and professional handling throughout the process. There was always an experienced representative available to show potential buyers around whenever appointments were booked — we had around 20 viewings in just five weeks.
Our handler, Emily, supported us right through to completion, coordinating efficiently with solicitors, brokers, buyers, and sellers to ensure everything progressed quickly and smoothly. I honestly do not think you could find a better estate agency. Thank you, Inigo team!

Only good words to say about TMH, and in particular Manon who was working with us on the flat sale. Her attention to detail and proactiveness made everything a very smooth and enjoyable process. Can highly recommend!

Brilliant team, great advice, breath of fresh air!

We had an excellent service from The Modern House from the valuation, to the beautiful photography and listing which turned into accurate viewings with quick offers. Vanessa continued to be our main point of contact all the way through to completion. We would highly recommend and would definitely use again.

The agents are very personable and get to know you and your property. They were always on hand to help reduce any stresses and easily contactable. I have recommended to other friends for their excellent marketing and introductions to effective buyers. Would use again.

I recently sold my flat in London through The Modern House, and the experience was excellent from start to finish.
A special thank you to Emily McEwan and the team for their professionalism, responsiveness, and genuine care throughout the process. Emily was fantastic in liaising with the buyers and keeping everything moving smoothly — she made what could have been a stressful experience feel seamless and well-managed.
Highly recommend The Modern House to anyone selling their home — a truly exceptional service.

The Inigo staff understood the special nature of our 18th-century townhouse and were intelligent and responsive in the service they gave. The quality of the photography was outstanding and the write up of the house went beyond the usual estate-agent speak. An excellent article about the history and restoration of the house was written for the Inigo almanac and helped to draw attention to interesting and unique features of the property. Throughout the sales process staff were always at hand to advise.

Felix North was very professional from the beginning and made purchasing a flat long distance very smooth and easy. I can fully recommend The Modern House and Felix in particular.
