With a very helpful and focussed approach in dealing with a couple of longstanding repair issues, Dil Gedhu showed her ability to drive things forward in the interests of John Shepherd`s tenants. Thank you, Dil.

Just to say that, in Aleemah Aziz and Alisha Donaldson, John Shepherd have two excellent professionals in their Birmingham office. Courteous, efficient and smart! Thanks to both for their help.

Tassi, but worse

Since Tassi was bought out by John Shepherd, my experience with them has gone rapidly downhill. Maintenance requests and contact form submissions are not actioned, phones are never answered, and if you even get in contact with someone through previous correspondence or guessing their new email address, they'll just stop responding when you've asked them questions.

Agent replied · 13 July 2024

Thank you for your review and we are sorry to hear of your recent experiences. We would welcome further information on your review, and would politely request that you write into the Property Management Director, Chris Blick on chris.blick@johnshepherd.com so further investigations can be conducted.

Be warned and stay well away

Be warned and stay well away. For context, they were advertising apartments in a block and we were told not to be concerned about the flat number itself when signing the paperwork as they're "all exactly the same" and are going quicky so the number you are given may differ depending on the time the contract is drawn. Here is a drafted email which sums up my experience:Hi [John Shepherd Property Manager]Previously, I had been lied to about the property through the false-advertising as well as verbally (with the property being advertised/listed online as having 2 bathrooms, being told I am paying for two bathrooms, being shown 2 bathrooms during the viewing, but being given a number 7, a flat I was never shown with 1 bathroom on move-in day) but for which I have not pursued legally due to the contract stating flat 7 at the time of signing and for the sake of minimising stress. I did already bring this up on move-in day, first via phone-call and then via email to one of your colleagues.The advertising, as well as the organisation told me I would have on-site parking. You are now accepting that this too was another example of false advertising and mis-selling as my particular landlord for the property you chose to give me in the end does not have a parking space associated. This again shows a lack of transparency and that all the flats are not the same misleading me again.I have attempted to be extremely reasonable despite the opaque responses and misinformation involved, and find myself being pushed into taking further action.I know you may not personally have been involved some of what I have mentioned above, however you are managing the property and representing your organisation.Please also let me know in writing if there is nothing further you are willing to do as an organisation to resolve the matters stated above without the involvement of external parties.Kindest regards,[Name hidden]

Very pleased with the service!

As a tenant, I have recently reported two issues. I am very pleased with the support from Christina Tzemanaki at John Shepperd, who was highly efficient, professional, always available, and communicative. Their contractors were also professional and communicative. All the issues were dealt with swiftly. I strongly recommend this company to any tenants.

!!!NEGLIGENCE REDEFINED: TENANT SAFETY IGNORED!!!

I am on Day 50 of living in a John Shepherd managed property that is unfit for human habitation. Since 9th Feb, a severe structural leak remains active and unresolved. The agency’s handling is a disgrace. I am currently forced to live with: Electrical Hazards: Water leaking through light sockets; I’ve witnessed sparks twice. Safety Risks: The only ‘fix’ was removing light bulbs. One side of my living area is in the dark, making it impossible to see the constant flooding. Injury: Due to poor visibility and wet floors, I have suffered a physical slip injury. Outrageous Demands: Manager Melissa Cannon claims it is my ‘contractual duty’ to clean this structural flood. I am an unpaid maintenance worker for a defect I didn’t cause. For 2 weeks, the agent has stalled on a rent rebate, hiding behind ‘business formal’ scripts while I pay full rent for a hazard. They prioritize the landlord over my safety. Avoid this agency at all costs.

Amazing Agents

I used John Shepherd Collection to sell my house, and they were exceptionally professional, friendly, and skilled. Selling a house in a challenging market is difficult, but they persevered and provided excellent advice throughout the process. Harry Moore was exceptional, and when he was unavailable, Natasha Anklesaria also did a fantastic job. I would wholeheartedly recommend Harry and John Shepherd Collection estate agents for any future property sales.

We bought our current house through Brockenhurst 17 years ago and, therefore, decided to use them again for our sale. We have been mostly happy with the service we have received from the team. Michelle has been fantastic in keeping us informed at every stage of the, sometimes stressful, process. Thank you.

Agent replied · 3 August 2026

Thank you for your long-standing trust in Brockenhurst. We're pleased you've been mostly happy with our service during your recent sale. Michelle's dedication to keeping you informed throughout the process reflects our commitment to client care. We appreciate your feedback and thank you for choosing us again after 17 years.
