TrustpilotExemplary Team & Service
I naturally have very high expectations and I have to say that Beresfords consistently exceeded them. Our property, unexpectedly came up for renewal in November and I was incredibly concerned about the prospect of finding a new tenant with it being so close to Christmas. I spoke to Karen and she was absolutely fabulous. She reassured me, took control and skilfully guided us through the process. The entire team is simply superb, from Karen, Lauren M, Christopher, Lauren J, Abby and Leanne. They have a real sense of urgency and empathy, resulting in us securing new tenants in November. Each of them epitomise, efficiency, professionalism and tenacity. They continuously kept us up to speed on progress made and went beyond expectations. They work tirelessly hard to do the best for both tenant and landlord. An absolute joy to work with alongside a great outcome for landlord/tenant!

TrustpilotFirst Class!
I had a wonderful experience with Beresfords. Eleanor was such a professional lettings consultant with great knowledge of the area. From the beginning the client care was very specific and bespoke to my needs. I was contacted frequently in regards to a range of properties and given advice with lots of guidance from the letting consultant. Eleanor is particularly experienced and as I am still new to the area it was great to have her guidance and support. She is confident friendly and highly professional.

GoogleDaniel Ives sold our house for us. He was on time for all appointments, took great photos, knowledgable and great from start to finish! He gave sound advice and not only did he sell our house quickly he went above and beyond searching for our forever home plus with my added endless questions and then stressful problems within the chain, he chased solicitors and other agents endlessly, helped with surveyors, solicitor and mortgage recommendations (who were all great!) and helped out of hours many times! We honestly canβt thank him enough, this wasnβt an easy sale and he went well and truly above and beyond, not one grumble or moan. The other estate agents in the chain werenβt helpful - everyone at Beresfords Brentwood were helpful and understanding throughout all the stress. Dan (and Brentwood branch) we canβt thank you enough!

TrustpilotWARNING ABOUT OUR EXPERIENCE WITH BERESFORDS
This is a warning for anybody who may be considering using Beresfords Brentwood as a letting agent. We moved into a house on Kings Chase, Brentwood at the start of the year. The house had numerous problems; it was filthy, no appliances were functioning, the boiler didnβt work- clearly the letting agency paid lip service to the inspection. Most egregious however was the fact that we reported about a large crack in the living room ceiling two days after move in. The reply from Beresfords, simply paid lip service, without inspecting of said crack. A few months later the ceiling caved in, narrowly missing our then 9-month old child. You can see his play matt under the rubble. He was playing on it minutes before this happened. Despite this, zero accountability was taken by Beresfords, no apology, no financial compensation for our destroyed TV/ damaged belongings. Beresfords were meters away from a potential death by criminal negligence, over job that was reported and dismissed, without physical inspection. Truly shocking. Whoever is now a tenant of 51 Kings Chase, Brentwood- I would suggest that you give the house a thorough inspection. A cowboy organisation, with staff who lack any form of integrity/ professionalism.
Tanith Β· 23 October 2022
Agent replied Β· 30 October 2024
Tanith,Having read the contents of your recent review, I wanted to reply personally. Firstly, I was sorry to read that you had experienced problems during your tenancy at Kings Chase. We take such feedback very seriously which is why I have reviewed our internal file notes and provided a detailed response below. Our records show that you wrote to us back in June expressing your dissatisfaction surrounding various issues that had arisen whilst you were in occupation. Our Lettings Manager investigated accordingly at the time and provided a written response back to you shortly thereafter.Although we accept that there were delays with repairs to some appliances, this was due to the contractor having to wait for specific parts from the relevant suppliers. He then became unwell which delayed matters further, but unfortunately both situations were beyond our direct control.In terms of the issue regarding the crack in the ceiling, you first reported this to us shortly after moving into the property and we immediately spoke with the landlord. However, at that time they did not want to take any further action and their reasons behind this decision were that they themselves had lived in the property for a number of years prior and although the crack was evident throughout, it had not deteriorated in anyway. When moving out, they then rented the property privately and the tenants concerned never reported any issues or concerns in this regard. However, further on into your tenancy you reported that part of the ceiling had come away and we immediately secured permission from the landlord to undertake the relevant repairs required. Furthermore, the landlord offered to put you and the rest of your family up in a hotel at their expense until the relevant works were completed. Prior to this incident occurring you had requested to terminate your tenancy early and offered to forfeit 60% of the dilapidation deposit, which you lodged with us at the beginning of the tenancy, to compensate the landlord for any lost rent whilst attempting to source alternative tenants. The landlord agreed to your request, but when the issue with the ceiling arose said they would return 100% of your initial deposit rather than the 40% which had been previously agreed, to help compensate you for the inconvenience caused whilst still permitting you to vacate early.So, in conclusion although we acknowledge the problems experienced by you whilst living in the property, we feel that as agents we responded promptly and attempted to put measures in place to resolve them as quickly as possible. Related delays were beyond our direct control and contrary to your own views, the landlord clearly made gestures to re-house you whilst repairs were undertaken at their expense and offered additional financial compensation as outlined above. I hope my response helps provide a clearer picture regarding the series of events, our involvement in trying to resolve the related issues and the landlordβs offer of alternative accommodation and financial compensation.
