Michael was fantastic to work with – professional, knowledgeable, and always quick to respond. He made the whole process smooth and stress-free, guiding us every step of the way. We couldn’t be happier with the outcome and highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy or sell.
I would like to express my sincere appreciation for Harris Tripp, for making the sale of my property at Flourmill of Summer Hill a seamless experience. For anyone considering selling their property, I highly recommend reaching out to Michael Poynting, the Associate Director at Harris Tripp. He can provide you with an appraisal and address any specific concerns you may have. Initially, I was unsure if selling a property with tenants in place was possible, but Michael reassured me it could be done. He explained that I could provide the tenants with just two weeks’ notice of intent to sell, allowing them to continue residing in the property while it was on the market. After speaking with Michael and feeling reassured, I signed an Exclusive Agency Agreement with him on 8 August 2025. He was clear about each step he would take to assist with the sale, and followed through on every commitment. Michael arranged for a floor plan and professional photographs, creating a preview link for the property. When I received the link, I was amazed by how beautiful my house appeared, and I became confident the property would sell quickly. A day before the premarket viewing on Saturday, 23 August, Michael sent an email invitation to his database, resulting in 10 groups attending and 3 contracts being issued on the day. This was an excellent turnout given the short notice. By Monday, 25 August, my property was sold to the highest bidder. Even though I was living in London, I was able to communicate with Michael easily via WhatsApp and email—demonstrating that anyone can manage a sale, regardless of where they are located. I sold this property in memory of my late husband John, as it was his idea to purchase it. I extend my heartfelt thanks and deep gratitude to Michael and the entire Harris Tripp team; their support made this journey possible. Best wishes, Lucy Lush

Michael has been available any time we needed for discussion, and for access to the place as well. Super helpful!
As a buyer dealing with Michael on the purchase of property was a professional and pleasing experience. We attempted to purchase several properties with Michael and were successful on our most recent attempt. Through each engagement Michael was a clear and responsive communicator and transparent throughout the purchasing process. I would recommend both vendors and buyers alike to engage with Michael at Harris Tripp for a professional property transaction experience.
Michael brought all his knowledge and experience to the sale of my property from the first appraisal through to assisting with preparations for sale and to completing the sale. All along I was grateful for he and his team communicating clearly and the professionalism he brought to it as the process unfolded. I am happy to recommend Michael and his courteous and friendly team.

Michael is on top of the local market and has been diligent in notifying me when suitable properties come up. He does this with clarity, without being pushy. Since I found the property I wanted, he has been quick to follow up and always helpful.
