When me and my friend had to cancel our contract, Jeffery Ross were very helpful in quickly helping us to find a tenant to take over our contract. I would recommend.

Our Estate Agent Ryan was very welcoming and informative which helped with the move. We agreed terms and paid the retainer on the house before even viewing, solely going off the videos and pictures provided online. This for me made me feel quite anxious about the move as I’m much more of a ‘touch, feel and see’ kinda guy when it comes to purchasing products and services but Ryan’s knowledge of the property details, past tenants and landlord made these worries soon fade away.

Great experience with Jeffrey Ross so far. Sarah and Bertie were lovely to deal with over the phone. Ramzy and Amanda were extremely helpful, both pre and post offer. Highly recommended.

Excellent from start to finish

Excellent from start to finish. Clear understanding of the area and how they came to my valuation figure and more importantly how they would achieve this. Professional and efficient, not only did they sell my home for more, they managed it through the sales process and ‘dreaded mortgage valuation’ stage and to top it off secured me my next purchase off market. Thank you everyone at JeffreyRoss (Pontcanna)

Avoid this appalling agency at all costs

Avoid this appalling agency at all costs. This was without doubt the worst experience with an estate agency I have ever had. Firstly, after paying the holding deposit to secure the property we sent all the required documents and heard nothing back for 2 months. Our move in date approaching and we had no idea if our “application” was accepted and whether we had to find a different property. We emailed and called Sian, the person in charge of our document handling process, various times with no response. Every time we called she wasn’t in office, and the secretary would promise she would get her to call back, a call that never happened. Eventually we had to go directly to the member of staff who deals with complaints CC him into the emails we were sending. Only then did we get a poor response trying to excuse ignoring our contact for 2 months. We then had to re-supply documents and essentially do Sian’s job of contacting references for her, even though we had supplied contact details as they requested. Various times they claimed to have been waiting for a response from our references, but in reality had only sent out the requests that same day. The level of incompetence was astounding. Finally, after getting through that gruelling process, we got everything signed off and moved in. This is when the degeneracy of this agency became even clearer. During our talks with Abbie, the agent who showed us the property, we made it clear we needed parking nearby or residents parking. Abbie used the phrase, and I quote, “It is very unlikely you’ll be able to get two permits. The landlord has said it depends on how many are issued. Best to enquire through the council directly. There are non-permit spaces on (name of nearby road) otherwise.” This made it sound as if it is very unlikely we’d get two permits, but there may be a chance we would get one. We tried to contact the council to find out, but you cannot make an application without currently being a resident or having the council tax information, so all of our information was based on what Abbie had told us. Upon moving in we applied for residents parking only to find out that there was never actually ANY chance we could get a permit, because during the planning permission stage the landlord had never applied for the property to have permits. The nearby parking mentioned has about 4 or 5 spaces on which are almost impossible to get a spot on, the rest of the parking is all residents. This means we have to fork out £60 a month for private parking about 15 minutes’ walk away. When complaining about this to the agency, they denied all responsibility because they never explicitly said we could get residents parking (despite suggesting it was possible). If you want an honest agency that actually cares about the needs of the tenants and don’t use sly turns of phrase to lie about the qualities of a property, then DO NOT USE THIS AGENCY.

Jon took us on a tour of a listing through Jeffrey Ross. We were immediately impressed - not only was the tour professional and concise, but Jon took the time to speak to and get to know us, and made sure that our situation and needs were discussed and that our questions were answered in detail. I was thoroughly impressed - as someone new to the area, it was easy to see that Jeffrey Ross and Jon are high quality estate agents in this area, and I would absolutely hope to work with them again. A+!PositiveQuality, Professionalism

- Cancelled viewings on the day they were due to take place. - One-line text messages to cancel with no explanation or apology. - Phone system is not fit for purpose, 3 attempts to speak to somebody in the right office. - We have decided not to book to view any more properties with this company as we only have so much annual leave to waste on them.

Good afternoon Mr Kennedy, apologies in the delay in coming back to you. I would just like to apologise for your experience. Our llanishen office has to close for 3 weeks due to technical difficulties with our internet. As our phones are teams based following the last lock down is why you were unable to get through other than the divert setup to the other 3 branches. A call should have been made for which I apologise. The only reason we would need to cancel a viewing would be if the property went under offer, was Let or if our client couldn’t keep to the appointment. Regards Elliott Hooper-Nash

Arrived at a viewing and was told the front garden was up for sale separately. Myself and other potential buyers we’re very confused as it was not at all clear in the listing, nor had it been brought up during initial conversations with the agent. Poor, unprofessional approach. Purely to generate interest by being deceptive. We also had to chase just to get a viewing after logging our interest. Would not use

Morning Mark, apologies in the delay in responding. Sadly I have to disagree with your comments as it was clearly outlined in the opening paragraph as well as the bullet points and floor-plan showing the planning permission for the adjoining plot, which was reflected in the value. As a family run business we pride ourselves on our marketing. Thank you for your review, but may I suggest you reading listings before attending viewings. Regards Elliott Hooper-Nash

I recently sold my property with JeffreyRoss and I was so impressed with the whole experience - from the first valuation through to the handy online system to keep track of viewings and feedback, and then the responsive team (especially Sarah B) who were always ready to answer questions as the process went through. I'm really pleased I chose to go with them and would definitely recommend them.

Having been a tenant for over 1.5yrs with this agency, i am very impressed. There has only been one issue regarding maintenance of the flat which, upon being reported, was resolved within a day. The best agency i have used and the staff are always keen to help.PositiveResponsiveness

Terrible for tenants

We rented a house through the JeffreyRoss Pontcanna branch back in March 2020. The problems began when there were maintenance issues and when we were given notice to move out due to the landlord wishing to sell the house.There was a tap leaking in the back garden which we reported and a plumber was supposed to come and fix it. Not only did the plumber not turn up twice (with no communication), he also turned up unannounced with no notice. When this was brought up with JeffreyRoss we were told in an email that 'in an ideal world' the plumber should have contacted us. They completely ignored the fact that legally you must give 24 hours notice for someone to come to your house. We reported multiple issues that were ignored, such as the garden fence being blown down in a storm.In March 2021 we were given notice to vacate as the landlord wished to sell the house. Despite being tenants with JeffreyRoss and struggling to find an alternative place to rent we were offered no assistance. We would get phone calls multiple times a week asking about viewings. This was difficult for myself and my partner as we were working from home a majority of our time due to the pandemic.It got to the point where I would give a date every two weeks for a large portion of the day to carry out viewings. I had hoped this would ease the issue but I would still get opportunist phone calls asking whether they could do a viewing, even with only a couple of hours notice. Even when we secured a new place and told them our moving out date I still had phone calls up to two days left of moving out asking for viewings.Since then it has been four weeks with no contact since moving out. Both myself and my partner have phoned trying to see whether the paperwork for the bond to be returned has been completed and despite reassurances that we would be contacted back we have heard nothing.Overall communication and quality of service has been very poor despite branding themselves as a 'high quality'. Would not recommend.

Superb customer service, very knowledgable, always happy to help and go above and beyond for you. We purchased a house on a buy to let basis with JR and subsequently rented it with them. The whole process (through covid) was dealt with brilliantly and I would highly recommend them for both lettings and selling of properties around Cardiff.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value
