Would rate zero if possible

Would rate zero if possible. I’ve left several reviews over the years but today is a day of celebration! Centrick have finally been replaced as my property agency!!! Praises to God!! The WORST letting agency to grace the earth. Incompetent company filled with id!ots- even more incompetent staff!! Never thought I’d see the day they were replaced !! Best of luck to anyone who is unfortunate enough to rent with them next! You’re going to need it! I’m convinced their positive reviews are received through coercion or just plain fake because there is not one shred of anything good to come out of that agency. How it exists, I don’t know.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS I had the unfortunate experience of being with this property management company for a grueling two years in Birmingham, and I can confidently say it was an absolute nightmare from start to finish. If I could give zero stars, I would gladly do so. The most glaring issue was the consistently poor contact and communication. It felt like a Herculean task just to get through to a real person, as I spent countless hours on hold, listening to mind-numbing elevator music. And when I did manage to reach someone, it was a never-ending cycle of being fobbed off with empty promises and excuses. One of the most egregious instances of their incompetence was the four-month saga of living without a boiler. Despite my persistent emails and phone calls to have this critical matter resolved, their team displayed an alarming lack of care or consideration. It was a frigid and frustrating experience, made worse by their complete disregard for our comfort and well-being. The abysmal customer service extended to other aspects as well. When it was time to move out, we left the property in a better state than when we initially moved in, after having it professionally cleaned. Yet, they shamelessly attempted to slap us with a cleaning fee. It's clear that this company is more interested in squeezing every last penny out of their tenants rather than providing fair and reasonable service. This property management company is an epitome of incompetence and greed. If you value your peace of mind, time, and money, I implore you to steer clear of them at all costs. The horror stories I could recount from my time with them are too numerous to detail here. Suffice it to say, my experience was a harrowing one that I wouldn't wish upon my worst enemy. Save yourself the headache and frustration and look elsewhere for a property management company that actually values its tenants.

Unresponsive, extortionate and terrible management company for apartment complexes. I own an apartment in a complex they recently started managing which was previously managed by SDL. They have raised the service charges by £700 in one quarter and failed to give an explanation for this extortionate increase. They ask you to contact their credit control if you have difficulty paying but you can never get through to the number; it merely cuts off saying all operators are busy and cannot take your call. I have called repeatedly for over 3 weeks and several times a day. I have emailed them and raised requests via their online portal and received no response. The icing on the cake though is them sending me a further letter telling me they were applying an administration charge because I failed to contact them. How does one even contact them now because there are no avenues whereby you can actually get a response from them. This all in a time of austerity and financial difficulty. They are not just awful but also extortionists who take unfair advantage of leaseholders for apartment blocks they manage.

Terrible at management of apartment complexes

I'm the owner of an apartment located in central Birmingham which is managed by Centrick. Calls are never returned, nothing gets repaired, and nothing gets properly maintained. Security on the development has been a constant problem and centrick have done little to nothing to address the problem other than blame it on other people.Despite the terrible level of service our service charge has gone up dramatically with little to no proper explanation and lots of poor excuses.Believe centrick should change their company strapline to "don't care, not our problem"

I recently had the pleasure of attending a house viewing with Agent Holly, and I must say it was a wonderful experience. From the moment we met, Holly exuded professionalism and warmth, making me feel at ease throughout the process.She was incredibly knowledgeable about the property and its features, answering all my questions with clarity and enthusiasm. I appreciated how she took the time to understand my needs and preferences, tailoring the viewing to match my interests perfectly.Holly's attention to detail was impressive, and she pointed out various aspects of the house that I might have missed otherwise. Her passion for her job was evident, and it translated into a seamless and enjoyable viewing experience.What stood out to me the most was Holly's honesty and transparency. She provided candid insights into the property, highlighting both its strengths and potential areas for improvement. It made me trust her opinion and expertise, which is crucial when making such an important decision.Overall, I couldn't have asked for a better agent for this house viewing. Holly's professionalism, knowledge, and personable nature make her an excellent asset in the real estate industry. I highly recommend her services to anyone in search of their dream home.

Poor communication re: management packs

I currently live in a Centrick managed property. In the process of selling my flat, I had to purchase a management pack from Centrick for the sum of £420. For this fee, Centrick's own paperwork states the pack should be available within 5-7 working days.The pack was sent to the solicitors within the correct time frame, however for some reason on the solicitor's end this then was not received.When the solicitors continued to ask Centrick for updates on the pack, there was no reply from Centrick to say it had already been sent or to resend the documents. This has meant that 2 months later, there has been poor communication between the solicitors and Centrick.Edit: I've changed this from the initial 1-star review given that the pack had actually been sent, but Centrick's response time to emails from solicitors and ourselves has been poor. In fact, leaving the original 1-star review was the only thing that prompted a response from the appropriate teams.

Centrick have been managing my property for a few years now and I have found their service to be excellent. My property manager, Bethany, is diligent and proactive, sorting issues with minimal fuss and often finds significant cost savings which is useful in the current climate. When needed, the rest of the team are there and offer great service as well. They might not be the cheapest agents out there but the service offered is worth it for peace of mind.
