Ascend was founded on the belief that estate agents could do a lot better. We'd been working in the industry for a long time and were frustrated that most agencies were just so ordinary. Like their houses, these places were in need of a new lick of paint. Bit of rising damp in the basement too. So we decided to build our own home. A team of quick thinkers and good listeners also did a rare thing: treat customers like people instead of transactions. Because they knew great service wasn't just about experience and expertise. We had one philosophy: to keep the promises we made.
Then we opened the doors.

Welcome to Ascend. We're built on higher standards.

Easily the worse letting agents in NW England, if not the entire UK. Firstly, ignore the good reviews by new tenants. As noted in other reviews, Ascend bribe new tenants by offering to put them in a sweepstake in return for a good review here. ...
