As a contractor I find Rajak and Kai to be extremely efficient when dealing with properties managed by John Shepherd. Their communication and attention to detail is excellent. They are calm and focused in the co-ordination and organisation of all work making sure things are completed on time and of a high standard for both landlords and tenants making them a credit to John Shepherd.

Caitlin took the stress out of sorting out a Coucil Tax issue with Birmingham City Council on my behalf, with great efficiency. For me this demands five stars! Thank you!

allAgentsAbsolute Disgrace to the
Rented an apartment from them for 2 years, had the curtain rail fall off the wall just missing my 1 and 2 year old! massive holes in the walls, mould around all windows and on walls had to spray them at least 2 times per week from September till May, stains on all carpets living room bedrooms and hall ways, cracks in the bath panel and mould in the tiles round the bath. Moved out 01/11/2020 this is when it all happens!
they have taken more than 10 days for my deposit, apparently someone was off on annual leave - surely another worker should take on there work?
i have a bill for a cleaner as there was dust on the skirting board (they done the check out 1 week after i moved out so bound to be) i have already sent them the cleaners certificate confirming the apartment was deep cleaned, i have also a bill for cleaning the chairs (again cleaned by my cleaner)
they are also trying to bill me for mattresses for the beds i didn't use and stored in the garage as per the landlord and they we full of mould and rats when i went to put them back i called landlord as didnt want to spoil the nice clean carpet i had just paid for. he advised this was ok but now JS are trying to make me pay for them....errr no landlord knew his garage was not secure or air tight so bound to happen sorry.
i have not had a thank you for getting the stains from the carpet as my cleaner managed to get them all out and on the check out there is no mention of the 'old' stains?!?!?! also i have filled the holes left by the falling curtain rail and painted so it looks brand new
STEER CLEAR
i will be writing this same review on every available platform as they do not deserve your money!!!

GoogleMy experience at John Shepherd was absolutely amazing. My agent Lily from the John Shepherd branch in Birmingham on Colmore row, handled my move with such grace and efficiency that I honestly do not know how the process would’ve progressed without her. She made sure all my queries were answered with the most detail and ever so promptly, irrespective of what time or day it was. I have never had such an efficient as well as informative agent experience before, but I can honestly say I would fully recommend John Shepherd. Overall an utterly helpful and pleasant experience!
