I received very little service from the agent, and there was a strong sense there greatest incentive was to sell the property at as high a price as possible.

Dear Aaron,
The first point that I would like to make clear to anyone reading your review is that you were the buyer of the property, not the seller, so your comment that “hard to know what I actually got for what I paid†is a little misleading as you did not pay us anything for our service. Our fees are paid for by the seller of the property, who would I am sure be very pleased to hear that “there was a strong sense their greatest incentive was to sell the property at as hig ...

Distinctly average agent taking into consideration the messed up nature of the London rental market.
Their fees are extortionate - £100 tenancy set up fee PLUS £150 application fee per tenant plus £50 referencing fee per tenant: £250 per tenant based on two sharing.
For us that included zero ...

Again, we were very happy with this. They valued the property at a high price, but at a price we firmly believed it was worth. The proof was in the pudding, because it literally flew off of the shelf and the price wasn't negotiated on.

Dear Tim,
Thank you for your comments and thank you for using us to let your property again this year.
I’m really sorry to hear that your experience this year wasn’t as good as when we let your property for you last year, but glad that we managed to secure a strong rent and without any void period.
As a company we have continued to grow which has led us employing a larger team than we had a year ago, which is why you may have spoken to more than one person during the process â� ...

Dear Sabina,
Thank you very much for your kind review. It's great to hear feedback from happy customers.
We work realy hard to deliver a first class marketing campaign, and clearly with your property it resulted in a fantastic result.
I will also pass on your feedback to Shirley as I know that she will be really pleased to hear that you valued her involvement during the conveyancing period.
Thank you again for using Beresford Residential to sell your property and we wish you all the best in ...

Dear Roshinee,
I'm glad that we came across professional and straightforward on the first meeting, but very disappointed to hear if you feel that from that point on there were complications with the process. I am also happy that we managed to find tenants for you at the full asking price and on the first day of marketing, to minimise the costs to you of having a vacant property.
Prior to putting forward an offer to a landlord we ask all potential tenants to fill out a detailed form that h ...

Dear Millie (MS),
It's disappointing to see you post this message claiming to be an unrelated party, as you are part of the same group of tenants as the original poster. We repay all holding deposits where applicable within 5 working days, as explained on our application form, and this is what happened in your case.
It's a real shame when this forum is used dishonestly, and although we appreciate that you lost out on a property that you really wanted, I feel that posting reviews such as this ...

Dear Rob,
I have looked into this matter following your comments and I do understand that you were quoted incorrect information in respect of the service charges and in regards to the 'chain-free' aspect of the sale.
You are correct in that we rely on information provided by the vendor (e.g. in respect of service charges), and in this case we were given the wrong information by the vendor. We do always endeavour to verify any information provided to us, but often it is not always possible to ...
