GoogleWe used the guys at Rice Chamberlains recently and were very glad that we made that choice.
Our transaction was fairly complicated as it involved a probate and things didn’t happen in the usual order, so we never really imagined that it would come together. As with all house purchases, there were a fair few ups and downs, and at times it has been quite stressful. The team at Rice have been there throughout and their support has been invaluable. It has genuinely felt like they’ve been with us every step of the way.
We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this team. They are professional, knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with.

GoogleI was nervous about selling our house after being there for 23 years. From the moment James arrived I knew we would be ok. He made me believe it would all be alright. James took wonderful photo's to show our house at it's absolute best.
We sold our house in Cotteridge on our first day of viewings thanks to the wonderful Matt. He took time to show our buyers the house and garden without rushing them, giving them time to make an informed decision about the home they were about to purchase. Matt then, with the help of the team at Rice, guided us and our buyers through the whole process. Answering our questions and always on hand to offer advice with both our sale and the purchase of our new home.
Quite simply, we couldn't have done it without them and both myself and my husband will forever be thankful we found this wonderful team.

GoogleWhat can we say. Excellent company who are a pleasure to deal with. From the initial meeting with James who set our concerns at rest and knew the market so well, to Aimee who was professional to a tee with viewings, negotiations and dealt with our long and arduous move with many twists and turns professionally and proactively. Felt like they were only ones on our side after having issues with one particularly awful upper chain that eventually collapsed due to unscrupulous behaviour on exchange date. Happily this subsequent sale they managed expertly has gone so smoothly . We wish them every success and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them!

GoogleI cannot thank James and his team enough for all of their help and support during the sale and purchase process. I have used other local agents previously but would never now use anyone else following the exceptional service they provided. From start to finish they were extremely professional yet very friendly and approachable. The service was excellent value and they made a very stressful period manageable. They went above and beyond to ensure the chain did not collapse and completion happened prior to Christmas. I cannot recommend them enough.

GoogleI recently purchased a property through Rice Chanberlains, Bournville and the team were nothing short of amazing... their ethos is typical of a passionate, well-established, independent business, which invests in its staff and resources.
There were a few unexpected hurdles along the way, however nothing was too much trouble for them. I was particularly impressed with their perseverance and team spirit.. which really made them stand out from their competitors, who I had previously encountered. Huge credit to this team and especially Matt. They deserve every success - keep on doing what you do and thank you!PositiveProfessionalism

★★★★★ 5/5
GoogleThe team at Rice Chamberlain provided outstanding service both for renting my property and its subsequent sale. The tenants proved to be difficult by refusing to vacate the house at the end of their contract but Abigail and Hannah dealt with the matter professionally and successfully by getting them to eventually leave and organising the repair of the damage incurred by them. James was exemplary in selling the house under the difficult circumstances of Covid 19 lockdown restrictions. In spite of these he obtained a good price and was proactive in pushing the sale through. I was particularly impressed by his efforts to keep me continually updated during the process, and especially his dogged determination in chasing the solicitors, both mine and the buyer's, to keep the sale progressing to completion. I thoroughly recommend Rice Chamberlains as a first class estate agent.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

GoogleJames & the team at Rice Chamberlain provided us with an excellent service.
They are all really friendly but professional.
Unfortunately our first sale fell through right before we were due to exchange, we had handed in our notices in on our jobs, had nowhere to live in Wales & the house was packed up. Devastating, but James was there to pick us up & put us back together again and they sold our home again within days which thankfully completed.
We would definitely use them again (if they opened a branch in Wales!)

GoogleI cannot praise James enough!
My husband and I really liked dealing with James , such an honest, reliable and professional man.
He always kept us in the loop with everything regarding the sale of our house. Within the first week before the for sale sign was up he and his team had it sold! Lockdown never held them back James was working throughout guiding us giving us his time and knowledge. Even on his holiday with his family he got in touch with us to inform us of changes!
We have told all our family and friends how fantastic they are.
We have another property we are going to be selling and already asked James as we could not ask for a more fabulous team to do it.
Honestly we listened to many other companies but met James and within 10 minutes we felt safe in his hands.
Honestly if you want a team to be honest, efficient , really nice and dont want to have hassle, go to James and the Rice Chamberlain team give them the keys to the property and relax....
They have it all in hand !
Thank you so much!!!

GoogleWe originally chose to sell our property with Rice chamberlain over other competitors in the area as our family have always used them as their estate agents. We also purchased our first property previously with them so we knew they were a reliable agency. We can’t thank them enough.

GoogleIn a time when service providers generally have a thousand and one reasons why things are slow or can’t be done, James and his Bournville team went above and beyond to make the process as easy and stress free as possible.
Time was taken to listen and understand requirements, offer advice and keep things generally moving along and as a result we sold s.t.c. within a week of going to market.
The end to end process was conducted with high degree of professionalism, efficiency, courtesy and humour that I think places Rice Chamberlain’s as the ‘go-to’ agents in the area.
Thank You!

Rice kept us informed throughout our sale/purchase and nothing was too much trouble for them. We'll certainly be recommending them to our friends and family.
Special thanks to Matt & Barry who looked after us during the process. Especially Matt who we felt really understood what we were looking for in a house and was brilliant at finding out what was going on in the chain when all other avenues had gone quiet. Great investigation work Matt!

GoogleI don't really know how to do justice to Rice Chamberlains' fantastic customer service, knowledge and kindness they have shown us during the sale of our home. One thing I do know is that if you are considering selling a property in the area, Rice Chamberlains are 100% the Estate Agent you should use. It was a bumpy road for us, but the whole team, James, Matt and Barry, were amazing. They kept us informed and updated on everything that was going on, they showed excellent customer service and the highest commitment to selling our property and doing what was best for us. James ensured that our property stayed ahead of the game and that it was positioned correctly by conducting amazing marketing images and videos so potential buyers could see the full potential of our property. We cannot thank the whole Bournville team enough. And, on top of all of this, they are lovely people too! Thank you Team Bournville!
