Over the past 9 years, we dealt with 5 letting agents and we have never received such a abysmal service like Bairstowe Eves, 24-26 Maid Marian Way, Nottingham. The quality of service since the date of signing the contract to the date of checking out has been really poor. Below are some feedback points that we thought would be helpful for people.
1. The state of the property when we moved in was unacceptable and dirty. When we phoned the Bairstow Eves one agent came to see the property and he said they rent properties in much worse condition. We feel this is very unprofessional.
2. It took months to get the waste in the garden to be removed and there was still some of it left when we moved out, which they tried to charge us £100 to move.
3. It took several weeks to get someone to fix the garden gate after it fell.
4. The system for arranging viewings for us when we gave in our notice is atrocious. Sometime I got a phone call, others they texted my wife. On multiple occasions we stayed in for a viewing which we weren't told had been cancelled. On another occasions the agent didn't show up for the viewing and we had to show them around the house. Again this behaviour is very unprofessional.
Hope this helps to people looking to go with Bairstow Eves.

Found an affordable property through them; when we went to visit and subsequently decided to take the property everything seemed in order; they were responsive. However the agent handling our case would consistently call my partner's number asking to speak to me (he had my ...

The fees are affordable; or more, they would be if they provided any of the services they charge us for.

I booked a viewing for a flat with Joanne. It was booked for 5pm today so I left work early to make the appointment. I waited outside the apartment block then rang her. The call was not answered and I had no other number. I ...

Ridiculous. £500+ for 2 people. What for? What do the estate agents do exactly if they don't turn up to appointments or ring clients?

Speaking as a newly-graduated tenant, please avoid Bairstow Eves. The hidden agency fees are incredible, and are likely fixed to cheat individual customers. Most letting agencies will charge agency fees of between £100-200 for a one-bedroom flat. After I had selected a flat, I found ...

Agent fees are artificially inflated in order to cheat vulnerable customers, see review.

My partner and I rented a property through them for about 14 months. They were ok whilst renting and got any problems sorted out, although it always took a few days for them to get approval for works from a landlord that lives overseas.
Problems have ...

To begin with, the property management company you are required to go through for repairs took 2 weeks to send anyone round to sort out a leaking toilet and oven that didn't turn on. Then it was all fine (because I didn't need anything). When it ...
