I would not recommend dealing with this agency. I booked a house at Leytonstone and was told that I will be getting a call from their agent on the paperwork etc. I went to their office and gave my card details etc. and the information they required to book and close the loop. They also committed that the property will be taken out of the listing immediately.
However, to my surprise and shock (I stopped searching for more properties and refused other viewings) I didn't hear back from this agency and my suspicion was confirmed when I called back and was rudely told that the flat I intended on renting has already been rented to someone who has paid full years rent. I wasted precious time and now back to square one!
I called the agent I was in touch with and he very casually told me that his manager should have informed me on time but must have forgotten. The way the whole process has been handled - is extremely uncalled for and downright mean to say the least.

What agent could do to change your mind?
Very unprofessional and uncourteous. Did not have the courtesy and professionalism to keep me informed till the last moment. I wasted my time and effort in dealing with this agency and would recommend caution in dealing with them. I would say Avoid them if possible!Attached Filesnbsp;

Terrible agency. Not that I was aware at the beginning of it but they were racist and incapable of talking to their customers. I have talked to the bank several times about mortgage advising and they wanted a mortgage in principle which I have given them, the bank said they should not have refused us but they did. I have talked to my lawyer and it has said they should of not refused us. when we put an offer we got accepted got send papers and everything at least they could of done helped us but ...

I would strongly advise prospective buyers to avoid Bairstow Eves at all costs due to their incessant lying, incompetence and lack of principle.
We asked questions with regards to the structure of the property we were buying, which were incremental to our decision to purchase ...

What agent could do to change your mind?
Not made a complete and utter mess of our sale. And, more simply, returned our calls when we were potential customers.Attached Filesnbsp;

We have been unable to view any properties with this agent as they will not make any appointments with us unless we agree to meet with their financial advisor. This is a waste of time for us as we already have a mortgage agreed in ...

The staff at the Leyton branch of Bairstow Eves are totally incompetent, so much so it amazes me they even manage to get themselves dressed in the morning. We were constantly misled, lied to and had to chase several times for answers on the simplest ...
