Of all of the estate agents I have dealt with Nicholas Humphreys in Burton have been the best by far. Excellent communication and so quick to turn things around.

I deal with Paul Wills for our two rental properties and he is always a pleasure to talk to and always sorts out any issues and answers any questions we may have. He always responds to emails and always does what he says he will do. The staff in the branch in general are always helpful and polite and I would thoroughly recommend Humphreys at Burton to anyone wanting to rent or sell a house. I have done both and found the sales team excellent as well. I would just like to say thank you Paul for all of your help and may it continue into 2018.

Simon was very proactive in marketing the property and only took him and his team less than 24 hours to find tenants.
Furthermore, Matt has been great to work with, sharing all neccessary informtion and providing regular updates to me.
As a company, they are excellent as they are very easy to work with, providing quick and clear communication.

Annie was an excellent negotiator throughout the process. Advising on when & by how much to reduce the price by, even if advising us to wait a while to gain best interest. She proactively encouraged viewers that hadn't even even considered our property, which assisted in valuable feedback. Annie viewed our property to advise on best way to sell, pointing out high & low points with the property & how best to promote it. Excellent communication throughout & would certainly recommend above some of the other established estate agents in the area. First class service all round!

Both times Andrew Finlan the senior sales manager from the Burton on Trent branch came out and gave a very accurate valuation, and went the extra mile to answer any questions we both had. There was so much attention to detail on the advert, it was very professional and nothing was missed out. I have recommended Nicholas Humphreys to my friends, and they have been made up with the service they have received, especially Andrew and the team at Burton on Trent.

From the other reviews it appears this agent is ok for landlords, sellers or buyers. Looking at reviews from tennants however tells a different story. Fortunately I am now a home owner but my experience as a tennant with Nicholas Humphries was one I never hope to go through again. Throughout the tennancy they were uninterested with any issues and more importantly, like many other tennants I had to fight to get my deposit back. They came up with entirely bogus excuses and even randomly said I missed a months rent years ago perhaps in the hope I couldn't prove otherwise. It wasn't until I explored legal advice and raised a case against them that they finally paid the money back to me. My advice to you is to avoid these people.

Avoid this estate agents as much as you can. We reported problems several times when we moved in and they kept telling me somebody would call me back. 9 months later still waiting the call. Had to sort out everything ourselves and they weren't interested if we ever had to contact them. Never knew any of the answers to simple questions and couldn't be bothered to find out. When we moved out all of a sudden they were interested in us since we were giving them money, on the closing inspection tried to penalise us for things we'd reported in the first week and they never bothered about. Now they're holding our rent refund because of something that isn't working that was never working when we moved in...that we reported to them on the first day of moving in! Absolute joke of a company. Looking at getting a mortgage soon, I'll be sure to pick a proper estate agents for that, not this sorry excuse.

Arrogance at its highest level said about Nicholas Humphreys
Services : Letting( Admin )Date: 21st May 2016
Ignorance at the highest level. Further to viewing a property for sale In Burton yesterday I rand and spoke to Annie. The purpose of my call was to make an offer to purchase the house. I started my conversation saying just this I would like to make an offer but the offer will be based on the following ................. This is when the conversation spiralled out of control due to Annie disagreeing with everything I was saying and challenging me at every opportunity. I consistently requested I be allowed to finish my sentence. Eventually we reached a point of no return on this phone call WHY? Because the phone was put down on me. Two minutes later my phone rang Annie was not sure what happened on the last call? I know exactly what happened, you hung up on me you unprofessional individual. Anyhow keen to get my offer in to this unbelievable estate agent I continued with the previous conversation. Trying to explain the reasons for my offer not being the asking price ( I had not at this stage managed to get to informing Annie of my figure) sadly I never did get my figure across because I was constantly interrupted, challenged, informed how it was Annie's job to get the highest figure for her client. Of course I am of the intelligence level to know all of this, I also understand that the negotiation of selling/ purchasing a property is or should be a two way process. The communication I was experiencing was never going to become that so without putting my offer forward Iinformed Annie that I would be taking my money elsewhere. I have two more viewings this coming week on houses in the same area as the one being discussed. How unfortunate that the vendors of my original property chose Nicolous Humphries to sell their house. They are not being given the opportunity to consider offers for themselves . Annie is making the decision for them or in this case scuppering potential offers by acting in such an unprofessional manner. Please may I suggest you listen to potential purchasers regardless of whether or not you agree with what they are saying. The buyer has a right to dictate their agenda regardless of the fact that the seller may not accept it. Certainly in this case you acted inappropriately. You still. Do not know what my offer was. It may have resulted in a sale but we will never know. My advice to anyone selling their property AVOID NICOLOUS HUMPHRIES and choose a more professional agent where the staff are trained in the art of actually listening to them and furthering potential purchasing offers by negotiation and not dictation.
