GoogleTop notch experience renting through them. They have been as quick as humanly possible arranging for any emergencies to get resolved and their staff go above and beyond. Our fridge broke down during a heatwave, James went to Slough for a replacement when there weren't any that would fit in the local stores. When out of hours issue have come up Emma has been super patient and responsive. All together, everyone we have interacted with has been stellar.

GoogleAs a first encounter with Balgores here is some genuine feedback : These guys don’t message round and are a very professional outfit. Oskar assured us we wouldn’t be getting into bidding wars and we didn’t . Oskar and Louise ensured we were kept appraised at all the usual milestones and Louise did a fantastic job to keeping things moving. Oskar was available throughout, and always attentive to any queries we had. On the whole a great experience. Thank you to Oskar and the Balgores team
Agent replied · 29 May 2026
Hi, Thank you for taking the time to share such candid feedback following your first experience with us. It's really pleasing to hear that Oskar delivered on his commitment from the outset, and that both he and Louise kept you informed and confident at every milestone throughout the moving process. Louise's drive in keeping things progressing and Oskar's consistent availability made what can often be a complex journey feel well managed - that combination of expert property guidance and honest communication is exactly what our estate agent team is here to provide.
