Jenna was consistently amazing in the support she gave us for the purchase of our house, throughout the whole process, from the first viewing to being there on move day with the keys. Was always available and proactive, with clear, honest and timely comms, and really helped push things along when needed. I cannot recommend Jenna enough. The best Estate Agent I have ever dealt with, by a country mile. Thank you :)

While I was in the process of seeking clarification regarding the additional charges, the property agent, who has consistently been rude and unprofessional, issued a notice to me. Despite my attempts to escalate the matter to senior management, the internal escalation process appears ineffective, and as a result, I received the notice yesterday. I genuinely intended to resolve the issue amicably, but unfortunately, all my efforts have been in vain

I cannot recommend hunters chesterfield enough, truly I have had an amazing experience, I have mostly dealt with Laura Nash, she has been incredibly friendly, professional and kind, nothing has ever been too much trouble for her and its been seamless from start to finish. I honestly cannot thank her enough. The whole team have been outstanding and I cannot fault them at all. You're all doing an amazing job. Thank you for looking after me throughout my stay at the property.

No contact from Chris Marla for the last 3 weeks although we had a follow up call regarding the damp issue in our house aswell as bins. We’ve been given no council bins since moving in (3 months) meaning we’ve had to store bins in the garden. We were told bins were arranged back in September, and they were ordered. However, they haven’t arrived as our property manager ‘contacted someone she knew in the council to buy the bins’ instead of purchasing the bins through the councils appropriate avenue. (This ensures that bins arrive in 10 days at most.) They’ve also refused to give landlord details although the council requested that we contact the landlord following the issues. We were told contractors were arranged to visit to fix the damp in the house, but there’s been no fix in again, in 3 months. They’re an extremely ignorant company when it comes to actually addressing and fixing any issues raised with the house. We waited 1 week after the call with Chris ensuring the issues would be resolved promptly, until we emailed asking what’s going on. Since then we’ve sent multiple emails over the course of weeks but, we’re still being ignored. These issues are also only the major issues regarding the house and don’t even include the dirty oven upon moving in etc.

Thank you for your review, please can you email lily.johnson@johnshepherd.com with details including property address so we can look into this further. Our complaints procedure would sit within the property management team and move upward accordingly, so we need to ensure this process has been followed correctly. Thanks, John Shepherd.
