After years of being let down by our previous lettings agents we decided to take the plunge and find a new agent.
We contacted a few and had some correspondence, but our initial phone call with Dominique from the Beresfords team went above and beyond ...

Hi Anita
I noticed you recently posted a 1 star review on allAgents and I wanted to respond personally.
Although we do not 'manage' your tenancy, the landlord concerned has asked that we conduct internal inspections periodically. My understanding is that we contacted you for this purpose, and once you explained the situation we postponed our visit and will contact you again in the future in an attempt to try and re-arrange.
Just to re-assure you that as and when an inspection does take place ...
