Terrible agent bairstow eves ( medway parade , perivale )

About Bairstoweves, Perivale, Medway parade location :I put offer on the house, was accepted. They pressurize me to use their financial service, which I accepted. I met Mr. A Kakkar, their financial advisor, on 2 different occasions. It was useless. I couldn’t any competence in him. I decided to take another mortgage broker. After that Mr. Kasru Ali, agent was dealing with the case, tried continuously to cancel the deal. He was terrible. He was always treating there is higher offer than yours available. He was telling you should be lucky to get the House. Anyway after I paid for my mortgage, solicitor, valuation and survey. Based on survey report I asked for £5k reduction. On this stage they cancelled the deal and find another “offer”. They caused to loose the house, pay around £2000, and affect my credit score and waste of 3 months time. Never deal with them. They are false and dangerous. Before dealing with this estate agent read the independent reviews in various homepages.

Unorganised branch in walsall

I used yhem to rent a property and it was a nightmare now I have left the property and trying to get back my deposit for over a month now. I heard nothing from them. I tried to contact them they said they will get back to me nothing!! I contacted them today and asked for the manager I was told the manager is on the phone and if they can help. I explained my situation, he then told me there's nothing the manager can do about it and gave me the number of the deposit team that I should contact and sort it then slammed the phone down. Surely if I went through the estate agent to rent the property paid my deposit shouldn't they sort all that out when you leave the property. They sending me elsewhere to sort it out myself.My contract ended on the 18th of August I then gave my notice to leave ending of June all of a sudden they contacting me a few times on when will I be leaving the property. I then gave back the keys to the property on the 5th of July. Well before the contract ended even though I had to move out the property well before July because of the mould and damp which caused my one year old to have asthma. I am just disappointed with my overall experience and it's only fair I get my deposit back.

What a great service from David Kinney and Juliet Townsend at the Brentwood branch. They took the time to listen to my requirements, show they understood and were very knowledgeable, professional, helpful and friendly. I had some hairy moments trying to make ready my property for tenants and they were there to help resolve issues as they arose. They found me tenants and the property was empty for only 4 days - pretty good going! They were doing a great deal on fees and even so, standards remained at the highest level. Highly recommend them. Thanks guys!

Worst Agency (not even 1 star)

I had rented a property through Bairstow Eves, Leytonstone. They showed us the property with lots of issues, when contacted for repairs after moving in they refused to repair by saying Landlord has no money.At the time of Inventory check nobody showed up. They even gave us the wrong keys. So we had to wait one week to move in without properly checking the things in it. We moved in with our 2 month old baby. Because of broken windows (hall, kitchen, bedroom) baby got fever, cold and cough. Property has broken cupboards, broken windows, broken furniture, broken bathtub, No cold water with extremely hot water for shower. We sent them an email about issues and they took 2-3 weeks to respond and to acknowledge. So we have to vacate the property after 2 months with their response 'Issues too extensive to repair'. When we asked for deposit after vacating the property, initially they said the issues were caused by us by blaming us and not given deposit for 3 months. After sending repetitive mails and raising the dispute with myDeposits.co.uk they agreed to refund. We have lost our deposit with no fault from our side.

Disingenous - the truth is a stranger to this lot

In 2014 I was looking for a property for a friend who is abroad a lot - saw two flats marketed by Bairstow Eves in B46. Staff were effusive. Turned up on time. Pleasant and charming. But they were unable to be straightforward, assuring me that the (frankly grotty) flats were in great demand and they had received offers near the asking price. It turned out that they did not have formal instructions to market one and the other was a health hazard. And when my neighbour bought his flat through them it turned out that they had got, shall we say, muddled about what he was buying.....for him to tell the story....

As on previous occasions, the sale of our property, was conducted with speed and with a first class attitude, from all the staff involved at Bairstow Eves Brentwood Office. Excellent advice & knowledge was always forthcoming and it was a pleasure to use and visit them.

The team at Brentwood gave us a superb service from initial enquiry through to completed sale. While the legals were going through, they kept us totally updated on progress, and were a great intermediary between us and the buyer. Highly recommended!

The worst letting experience ever

The worst letting experience ever. Despite paying all rental fees from 11.12.19 and signing the contract I still do not have access to the property! Is it just me, or is it breaching the contract? Letting agent is completely uninterested. Utter lack of professionalism throughout the whole application process up till now, when I literally have to rely on my friends letting me sleep on a couch, despite technically having a house rented.

I would highly recommend Bairstow …

I would highly recommend Bairstow services, specifically Adam and Elaine from the Wanstead branch, they were superb. Since my first contact with them, I felt that I was being listened , they understood my needs and tried to help. In my opinion there are many state agencies out there, but not many really care and have a good customer service as I experienced with Bairstow. Thank you guys!

I am really disappointed

I am really disappointed. All started well at the begging of the contract but when their is a problem they take so much time to fixe it. Our wash machine went down. We waited 4 month before the agency sent us a technician to replace it. Moreover at the end of the contract we wait 3 month before to have our deposit back. Bad experience. I don’t recommend it.

My review is based on buying from Bairstoweves not selling/renting

I didnt use these to sell or rent, rather buy from. Their mansfield woodhouse branch, Verity were very helpful in helping me chase the seller for updates.

DO NOT UTILISE THIS COMPANY

Extremely Poor customer service, would not recommend to anyone. Their deposit scheme is an absolute joke for landlords - tenants moved out of my house 4 months ago with clear evidence on checkout report of damages / repairs / removals but Bairstow Eves have not refunded me deposit deductions for what I have had to pay out. Constantly had to chase to try and resolve - inconsistent communication.
