Ashbrookes Limited were very professional, timeous and responsive to all the queries we raised. Their local rep Lottie Appleby was very knowledgeable and assisted our decision making with her detailed knowledge of the area. We look forward to working with Ashbrookes Estate Agent in the near future.

Ashbrookes Limited is characterised with swift responses to Clients' needs. I approached Ashbrookes for accommodation and, within 3 days, the Company provided me a suitable furnished and bills inclusive flat. I highly recommend Ashbrookes to you for all your accommodation needs.
Thanks for the lovely review!

My thanks to Miss Lottie Appleby for her knowledge and experience during the purchase process. She has done an outstanding job in liaising between the vendor, solicitor, surveyor and myself. I look forward to working with Ashbrookes.

Askbrookes Ltd is one of the best letting agency around Teesside University. Easy application, fast response and stress free process. Melissa Rountree, the customer service agent in charge of my letting did a really great job. Her mails were very timely, straight forward and quiet professional. Keep it up! I strongly recommend Ashbrookes for all international students of Teesside University like me.
Thanks for the lovely review!

This estate agent is terrible as they don't know how to fix issues and if you fail to keep up with the rent for any reason they are straight on to you. They send you fake paperwork when you get too far behind on the rent, basically they want your money and refuse to do any repairs to your property.
Dear Mark, As you have mentioned, it is our responsibility to collect rent and send the correct documentation when tenants are continuously behind on rent payments. I feel we would be a huge let down to our landlords if we weren't 'straight on to you' about rental arrears, so we will take your review positively. Intentional damage isn't always repaired immediately and we are 'managing agents' therefore we do not carry out repairs without landlords authorisation. All the best in your new property. Kind Regards Ashbrookes Team

Abbey is a nice lady and she gave me the best assistance in securing my apartment in Middlesbrough. I highly recommend her in securing a place here in Middlesbrough-UK.

Purchased a property through this agency , they did a great job finding tenants quickly and setting up tenancy’s! They know the student market well . They manage the property and keep me in the loop and do everything I’ve requested .
Thanks for the lovely review!

I stayed in the apartment for more than a year and to be honest, I wouldn't recommend this apartment to anyone especially the flat I stayed in. Firstly, all the issues I complained to in regards to my flat were completely ignored. The sitting room window and bedroom window were licking and this damaged alot of my property. I called in emergency for this to be fixed and they completely ignored me. They are just after the rent of their tenant and don't really care about their stay.
Hi Maryann, It is unfortunate you experienced a window leak due to heavy rains. As explained there was nothing in our control to stop the rain or change repair windows immediately. Many Thanks

This is just a short email letting you know that when I have spoken to any member of staff they have performed their duties very professionally and in a satisfied manner and also go out of they way to help where possible. Staff are hard working and professional people who I would not hesitate to ask for help. They are very well mannered and extremely enthusiastic in their job . Keep up the good work. I live in a house share there is 5 of us in a property in Middlesbrough town centre From Tony

I have been in touch with Daniella all the way from Nigeria before I moved to the United Kingdom. She is very professional with the way she carries out her duties. I love the apartment because its quite cozy. It's a very good example of home away from home. I would recommend Ashbrookes Ltd. to my friends and family any day any time.
Thanks for the lovely review!

Before i started uni i was worried about finding suitable accommodation but after finding Ashbrookes and speaking to the staff they managed to find me exactly what i needed with my specific requirements. They helped through the whole process until i moved in and even after that. The room looked brand new and i have no problems or criticisms. i only had one issue while staying with them but that was sorted almost instantly after letting them know . Overall 10/10 very helpful.
Thanks for the lovely review!

40 minutes late to the viewing, the house was an absolute state. Said they just needed cleaning but honestly would be better off with remodelling with the broken sockets and pulled up vinyl flooring. Obviously did not care about the tenants living there from the way they were knocking on doors. Didn't even want to risk renting from them.
Hi James, Unfortunately when carrying out viewings we cannot guarantee a level of cleanliness as there are tenants residing in the properties and if there were any maintenance issues, these are usually caused by tenants and they are always resolved before a new tenant moves in. Thankyou

I had a very bad experience recently. I had a tenancy for a two bhk property at a rent of 475 per room and paid a holding deposit 560. The most important point is to note that the entire house was a mess and all the furnitures were damaged. Due to the bad electrical circuits the power went off frequently and i had to suffer from the loss of my laptop.when i complained about the furnitures there the landlord came and put some old and damaged ones .Customer service was entirely disappointing . And now they are reluctant to give the deposit back.
Hello, Thankyou for your review. Unfortunately the landlord was dealing with the maintenance himself for this property and the property was not returned in the condition he let the property out. Thankyou

Ashbrookes got me a room in a flat and I must say its very nice and I like the customer service by Abbey, she handles everything in details and takes you through the process to get you what you want. Abbey's customer service is very good and professional.
Thankyou for your review, We appreciate your feedback :)

This is by Far the WORST agency that I have ever dealt with. They Lied to my son that a Car Parking Space came with the accommodation. Instead, he had to park around the back where barely 1 Car could fit. They did not inform my son that after he graduated, he would have to pay the remaining Council tax for 3 months till the end of his tenancy agreement totalling over £400. At the end of my sons tenancy, the agency informed him that he was upto date on all his payments and everything was fine. Only after 3 weeks, did they tell him that they were only paid 11 months rent, and that they had made a mistake in calculating. My son, who had now vacated the room, was then also told he would lose his £250 deposit money due to the room being left damaged and dirty. We made sure that the room was as we found it if not better yet, the agency insisted he would forfeit his deposit due to cleaning, damage and redecoration costs. However, when they claimed the £250 money back from the holding company, they did so under the pretense of 'Rent Arrears' !!! This is blatantly wrong for them to do so, as they claimed otherwise, then why claim as Rent Arrears ??? They have lied to us time and Again and made mistake after mistake, and now they wrongfully pursued us both (as I am his Guarantor) to pay the money back in full. My son has made them an offer to pay monthly as soon as he starts his new job in January 2024, but they now want the FULL AMOUNTS in one go. How can an unemployed person afford to pay them, when they have failed to provide any evidence of the alleged damage they claim, and they will not allow him or me speak with the landlord either. I highly recommend that you do NOT take this accommodation through this agency and even the other tenants have expressed their disappointment and dissatisfaction at how bad this agency actually is. I give this agency 0 out of 5 stars as they do not reply to emails or phone calls, and just a standard narrative that they have. NEVER AGAIN !!!
Hi Sajid, Thankyou for your review. Shaheed owed money as per his contract and he left the property with damages, cleaning and works required. If Shaheed was unemployed then as a guarantor it is your responsibility to comply with the legal documents you signed and pay on his behalf. Thankyou

Thank you so much Lottie, we completed 31st July 23. It did take a while, some highs some lows but we got there with everyone’s patience. A very helpful team, kept me informed and assisted in any difficulties that arose. Natasha was also great when she had to sit in. I appreciate everything you’ve done. Will meet soon and give you them box of chocolates I promised 😊 Will recommend you in the future, best of luck.
