Not a huge fan tbh

Not a huge fan tbh I personally don’t think they offer the best service overall I have had to speak to management at times when staff (jayvon) didn’t communicate. But I can’t complain about Abbie she has dealt with everything in a timely and professional manor.

Alex from John Shepherd Birmingham has just met us for a viewing in one of their properties. He was punctual and charming. Extremely respectful not only to ourselves but to the existing tenant who had a small child. An extremely professional young man. Well done Alex. I would have given you more stars if they were there.

Not Recommended. Spent 2 years living in a rented property through them but they were never able to fix any issues I reported or even the surveyor reported during 2 years. After I left the house they even deducted my security for the same things I reported to fix. Hightly unprofessional.

Thank you to Maisy

Maisy Smith was really helpful when sorting the broken blinds in the property. These were been broken before I moved in and started the tenancy. After becoming my my property manager, Maisy has picked this up and got the blinds replaced quickly. Each step of the process was communicated clearly and I am really happy with the work.

Went for a house viewing with my family and met with Nia. She was very welcoming and professional throughout. She showed us around the property with genuine interest in our story and background, and helped us consider how the house would suit our needs. The whole experience was straightforward and easy. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to rent, find properties, or manage them!

The first thing I would like to thank Alex who had shown me around one of the properties and he was smooth with everything. The way information was relayed and was able to answer every question without the need to feel irritated since it’s my first time renting. He explained the process from start to end and was able to support me throughout the whole thing. The process in general was alright to be honest. Did need to contact the company that does the referencing couple times which made it irritating due to incorrectly doing their checks on me Other than that I’m happy with the service

This is the most disappointing company I have ever encountered. They lack empathy and are solely motivated by greed. Even if you give your all, they will still take advantage of you.
