Had a house viewing booked for a certain time. I showed up at the time only to find they had left just before I arrived. I didn’t receive any calls to let me know. I had to spend 15 minutes on the phone trying to get through only to ultimately be dismissed.
Dear Andrei, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are sorry to hear about your experience and since being made aware of this, we tried our utmost to source a suitable house for your group, but unfortunately, after multiple viewings, it wasn’t to be. Following this, we do hope your opinion of our agency has improved and if you haven’t done so already, we wish you the best of luck in securing accommodation for the forthcoming academic year. Kind regards, Will at Nicholas Humphreys

Roger Cambridge - Nicholas Humphreys in my opinion are a very efficient team. My main port of call is David who has dealt with all of my enquiries immediately and with very good outcomes for me everytime. I feel confident in having Nicholas Humphreys manage my housing stress free.

I CANT RECOMMEND THEM HIGHLY ENOUGH!! I have used them as my lettings agent for the last 6 years for my student rental and then used them to sell the house as well. Both for the lettings and for the sale they have been excellent. A huge thank you to Jonathan MacDonald and to everyone there. I am very grateful for all the help you have given over the years. THANK YOU NICHOLAS HUMPHREYS NOTTINGHAM!
5/5
As landlords we have found Jon, Dan and our currnt portfolio manager David and in fact all in the offfice extremely proactive, helpful, professional, extremely efficient and friendly.We bought through the office and use them as letting agents. The tradesmen they have recommended for us have also been quick to respond, reasonably priced and the work carried out has been of a high standard. We are looking forward to continuing the long working relationship which started in 2015.

David P from Nicholas Humphreys has been great. We have used NH right from identifying a B2L property in Notts to full management of the property. Very transparent process and regular updates on repairs, rent etc. Highly recommended.

Danielle was an amazing help and very patient with us. When the landlord we had first signed with let us down and we had to look for another property she went out of her way to help us secure a place for the next academic year and was extremely quick and patient at answering all of our questions. Thank you for everything!

My property has been on let with Humphries for a very long time and have had a few property managers over time who have all been great. My current property manager is David pike, he is always helpful when I have any queries and always replies back in a quick time frame. David is always professional and is always providing a good service whilst representing Nicholas Humphries Nottingham. Thank you for all your help!

Shelley Williams has been so helpful and responsive with every little query I have had! She has helped my son and his friends secure their final year student house and been on hand to answer all of our questions promptly and thoroughly. Although they haven’t moved in yet I’m sure Shelley will continue to help whenever the need arises. I find her personable and professional- the perfect combination.
Dear Louise, Thank you for your excellent feedback. We are delighted to hear that you have had a positive experience with our colleague, Shelley, who is looking forward to welcoming your son and his friends to the property in the Summer. Kind regards, Nicholas Humphreys Nottingham

we dealt with William for student lets at Nottingham - and he was always really helpful and prompt. We let via NH for 2 years and have only positive things to say - we wish William had managed the property as well. Shelley was also really helpful when we had an issue on move out.
5/5
Nicholas Humphreys is by far the best when it comes to student housing! David has been such a great help with everything and all responses from him have been quick and extremely helpful! I would certainly recommend using them and if so, ask for David Pike as you won’t come accross someone as reliable and proffesional as him!

Apologies for the short story but I honestly can't understand how anyone can rate this company more than one star. I had a tennacy with them which was an absolute nightmare from start to finish. We discovered the property on Allington Avenue had an open sewer that would leak into the basement when it rained creating a draft amongst countless other issues such as mould/ bathroom flooding etc. Over the course of the year our property manager david Pike did very little to assist us. For instance an occasion where there was a leakage in the ceiling directly above another tenants bed taking almost two months to get a contractor out to resolve. It took me emailing them that i had no option but to take it further for just one problem to be solved. What had taken 2 months of ignored emails was followed up by a call less than 5 minutes after i notified them of my intention to seek legal counsel. But wait it gets worse. At the end of our time at the house we left the house in a clean condition with all seven tenants deep cleaning their rooms and communal areas. The shower room however was extremely difficult to be cleaned without professional chemicals due to the degree of mess the contractor had left in tearing apart the shower to resolve the flooding. Like Diagon alley, David pike’s lines of contact miraculously and promptly opened to inform us we had to pay over £500 for a deep clean alone amongst various other unjustified costs such as a leaf being in the room as the window was slightly open. We all know that student lettings can be stringent with the deposit but this was absolutely absurd. My advice to other tenants when dealing with these vultures . You have a contract with them they are obliged to honour as you do each time you pay your rent. Contact them in writing (email etc) to ensure there is a paper trail of your conversations. Demand they give you a timeline of the repair should be completed so you can press them when they inevitably miss these deadlines with useless excuses. Mistakes happen but If they miss the deadline more than once go straight to the council and make them aware should adequate reasoning not be given. These people are charlatans who sweat when someone actually reads the contract.
Thank you for your feedback. It is disappointing to hear about your experience with our Nottingham branch, as we take all reviews and feedback, positive or negative, on board with a view to constantly improving the service we provide. Please be advised that the contents of your review has been noted and I have investigated the points raised. Unfortunately, the leaks in question were not straight forward or routine repairs. Despite this, communication was constantly provided throughout this period through our maintenance portal, FixFlo, however, it is important to note that this would have only been received by the reporting occupier. The leak from the bathroom was fully repaired over the Christmas break in an attempt to provide minimal disruption to yourselves, as the contractor deemed it necessary to pull up the flooring first and in order to allow the affected area to dry out. The reporting occupier was made aware of the plan prior to remedial action being taken. The leak from the roof was only present during extreme rainfall and as such, the roof tiles surrounding this area were promptly replaced. Regrettably, the leak did re-occur for reasons unbeknown to the contractor which caused a delay to the leak being fully repaired. Nicholas Humphreys can only act on behalf of the necessary works completed by our contractors/cleaners at the end of a tenancy. We did advise at the end of tenancy that you are fully entitled to challenge any deposit deductions made, if of course you disagree to the proposed deductions. This being done via the relevant tenancy deposit scheme, however, you chose to accept the charges without wishing to take this further. (This following evidence being provided to yourselves from the checkout inspection and contractor/cleaning invoices). If you wish to discuss this further, please email myself at the following address. williamy@nicholashumphreys.com; Kind regards, Will

Danielle is a brilliant property manager, she respond to my question quickly and helped with everything I need. She absolutely understand the client's needs and helped. If you want to find any student accommodation or property, I'd recommend Nicholas Humphreys:)
