I wanted to give a shout out to Alex since sometime now. She took our account a few months back and coincidentally we were knocked with one problem or the other but I would like to appreciate how calm and efficient Alex was with her suggestions and problem solving. Great to be associated with empire Lettings.

Concerning Empire; you pay rent in advance, contract fees, a deposit then they still have the absolute audacity to 'charge' you to dry your own clothes! Yes B29 7NJ has a 'money' required slot on the dryer! Another thing, this Maintenance is 'dodgy,' I had a problem with my lock, maintenance comes along and looses the door screws, so the handle is loose, then leaves a 'huge' hole in the door around the lock! You could see me on the bed from the landing! I had to patch it up myself as I was certain that was to see if I was in or at work. Staff like to know these things you see, before they 'burst' into your room, touching your things, staying in your room far to long.....'imposing' themselves on your rights! Not alerting you to why 'they' go into your room on a daily basis...

Hi Roar Back , Thanks a lot for taking the time out to leave us a review - we really appreciate the feedback. I'm really sorry you weren't happy with the stay at one of our properties, however i am a little bit confused. I had a look on our system, and unfortunately i am unable to allocate your tenancy for any of the properties we manage. Could you please email us directly on info@empirelpm.com. Here at Empire, we pride ourselves on offering impeccable, friendly and timely service, and are sorry we did not live up to your expectations on this occasion Thank you Empire Lettings

Alexandra has been amazing and so so helpful along the process of renting a flat with Empires. She has been in constant communication with us and has answered so many of our questions with no hesitation. She has made this process enjoyable and easy and we have a lot to thank her for

Kudos to Empire PM for their excellent service in finding suitable tenants and managing the account. Reeta was super efficient in sourcing potential tenants, helping to conclude the deal with the tenant selected and ensuring that all protocols have been followed with proper documents in place. Well done and thank you.

Staff are very friendly and accommodating. Resided in one of their properties for almost 2 years and never had a bad experience when dealing with property management. A special thanks to Alexandra Maher who was my property manager. She was always quick to assist and resolve any issues at hand

Empire have been excellent with the sale of our house. Our estate agent Mya offered us her expertise in all aspects of the sale every step of the way. She had brilliant communication & updated us with all matters swiftly. I would highly recommend this company. Thanks so much Mya!

Disgraceful company! Very rude and unhelpful leading to us having to book another hotel last minute due to how unprofessional and disorganised they are. We booked this apartment for a concert. We arrived in Birmingham for 3pm check in time and went to collect keys as advised by property to be informed the keys were not there to collect. We contact the lady at the property who advised she will need to contact the cleaner as they may still have the keys and she would call us back. I did not receive a call back so I contacted them again with no answer. We were then advised via the app to go to the apartments and the keys would be in 112 letterbox. The letterbox was locked and we were told to put our hands in the retrieve them. This was not safe. We contacted the property again to be told to go check the room as the door maybe unlocked and keys inside. Again not safe. We were run ragged when the keys should have been in the place we were told they were.

I recently had the unfortunate experience of dealing with this estate agency, and I must say it has been nothing short of disappointing. From the very beginning, I encountered rude and unhelpful staff who seemed more interested in brushing off my concerns than actually providing any assistance. My troubles began just three days after moving into my new place, when I discovered a serious issue with the shower drains. Water was backing up, creating a mess and making the bathroom virtually unusable. Naturally, I contacted the estate agency immediately to report the problem and request a timely fix. To my dismay, their response was far from satisfactory. Not only did they fail to address the issue promptly, but their attitude was shockingly dismissive. I found myself speaking to staff members who displayed an appalling lack of professionalism and empathy, as if my concern was of no importance to them. It has been months since I first reported the problem, and the shower drain issue remains unresolved. Despite multiple follow-up calls and emails, I have yet to see any meaningful action taken to rectify the situation. This lack of accountability and responsibility on their part is truly disappointing, especially considering the premium price I'm paying to live in this property. In the world of real estate, communication and prompt issue resolution should be top priorities for any reputable agency. Unfortunately, my experience with this particular estate agent has shown a blatant disregard for these basic principles. I am left feeling frustrated, inconvenienced, and seriously questioning their commitment to providing quality service to their tenants. I would strongly advise anyone considering renting through this agency to think twice and thoroughly research their reputation for customer service and maintenance. My personal encounter with their unhelpful staff and unresolved maintenance issues has left me deeply unsatisfied and regretful of my decision to engage with them.

"Avoid at all costs, they don’t pay their β€œguaranteed” rent I signed a Guaranteed Rent Agreement with Empire Property Investors Ltd for my apartment in Birmingham. The whole point was that they would pay me a fixed monthly rent on time, regardless of occupancy. Instead: They were always late in payment and now still failed to pay me rent for April, August and September 2025, despite repeated written chasers (17, 23, 30 September just as examples for this months, imagine i have to do this repeatedly in the past months ). They completely ignored my emails and did not even respond until I threatened termination. When I raised non-payment, they tried to hide behind contract wording and claimed the agreement was still β€œlegally binding”, while conveniently ignoring the fact that they are in serious breach by not paying me what is owed. This is not β€œguaranteed rent”, it’s empty promises. I’ve had to seek legal advice and issue formal breach notices just to protect my position. The company’s conduct has been evasive, unprofessional, and financially damaging. If you’re a landlord considering them, think twice. Once they stop paying, you’ll spend months chasing, with no accountability. In my experience: unreliable, unresponsive, and not fit to be trusted with property management.

I had an amazing stay in one of the rotunda apartments. The price was very fair and the cleaning staff did an amazing job of cleaning after the previous guests. Had no problems getting the key/returning it. Amazing location, the city center is a lot busier than what I'm used to,so being able to quickly go back in and out from the apartment was a massive help. The reception staff have always been lovely to me. I've never felt safer in a place I've stayed while travelling.

Truly atrocious! My wife has a property which they are supposedly managing. Aside from the nightmare tenants, we are now no longer receiving the monthly rent. We have tried calling / WhatApping on every number imaginable with no luck. My wife has also sent numerous emails. We don’t live in the UK so the whole situation is a disaster. Maybe they have gone bust? To be honest, it wouldn’t be a surprise!!

Raza and Ryan have both been exceptionally helpful and have made the entire process effortless. Update: Sales team are amazing and go to every length. When it comes to any issues , I had no help from Ghazala and have been ignored for nearly 3 weeks.

Terrible management of rental payments. They are continually chasing for payments that have been made even when bank statements are provided to show that nothing is owed. They are also very unresponsive at getting back to people and just keep sending threatening emails for no reason. Avoid!!!

I wonder how many people have fallen foul of Empire LPM over the last 12 months ….they were appointed to property manage an 11 house development in Erdington on behalf of the ManCo and have failed totally …avoid at all costs 😩
