Hurst lane castle Bromwich Shocked
Absolutely unprofessional have had the worst experience possible keep booking appointments and email you on the day to say it's cancelled this has happened 3 times 2 no shows when I signed up with them they promised the world honestly have to say I'm disgusted with the lack of service. They don't answer their phones I surprised client's can even book a viewing, when you call them they just want to get rid of you as if your nuisance considering your are pay double the fees anyone else is charging. I'm shocked to see 4/5 stars certainly not the experience I've had with them. Castle Bromwich Branch Hurst lane i wish I read the reviews on Trust pilot I would have never choice them.

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!!
DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!!I have never written a bad review before as I give all businesses the benefit of the doubt or another chance or understand people have bad day but Burchell Edwards seems to top themselves with every encounter I've had with them to be the most incompetent company I've ever had the displeasure to deal with.Where to start! When we first viewed the flat we were to rent out the person we had been dealing with never showed up to the viewing and when we rang after waiting outside for over 30 mins we were told to ring the buzzer and the tenant at the time would show us around. Unsurprisingly the tenant was unaware there was a viewing but was happy to show up around anyway. Immediately we decided to take the flat as the tenant said no one else had viewed it so we were sure to get it and we did... or so we were told! After having given over a months notice to our other flat and because of delays from Burchell Edwards for us to move in we had to stay with a friends for a few nights in between moving out of our old place and into our new one. We were then told just a few days before we were to move in that the landlord had just chose us to move from all the applicants and congratulations we were to move in... we had already been told we got it and moved out of our old flat at this stage lucky we did get it or we would have been out in the streets! After being dragged around to 3 different Burchell Edwards offices across the midlands to sign different forms and collect keys from another one etc (i don't see why this could not all have been done in the one store, but why am I not surprised) we finally got the keys and moved in and did not have to deal with them for another year...thankfully!(I must mention that everyone except for Karena has been useless. She is literally the saving grace of this company and I could not fault in the time we dealt with her.)A year later we gave out notice to move out and emailed Burchell Edwards numerous times and getting no reply then was told that they no longer have anything to do with the management of the flat, despite the giant Burchell Edwards sign in the car area advertising renting out the the apartment and still have our deposit. It took 6 weeks to get an answer after giving 2 months notice. After moving out it has taken nearly a month (and counting) to get our deposit back even though we have receive confirmation from the people to maintain the building who confirmed to us and Burchell Edwards that the flat was left in perfect condition and for them to release our deposit, and email confirmation from the landlord again for Burchell Edwards to release back our deposit. After forwarding all these emails to Burchell Edwards as proof they can give us back the deposit they still have not and even the landlord said said he has already told them weeks ago to give us out deposit back but still no reply! Avoid this company at all cost. I have never and hopefully will never have to deal with such a useless company and the worse communication I've ever experienced!!

Tamworth branch abomination
After having a few different estate agents I was deciding who to use to advertise my property. I rang Burchell Edwards to actually view a house they had for sale but was told on the phone that it had been sold that day (fair enough) they then talked me into having them value my house and booked an appointment with one of their advisors (who I'll leave anonymous). He came round and was very professional and explained what they will do for me and how great they are blah blah blah so I decided to go with them and have the premium package photos and use their conveyancing team etc etc.That was about as professional as these clowns got. The photos were bang average and didn't advertise every room in the property and didn't look any different to standard photos on rightmove.... Nevermind so I thought. They didn't do any viewings I had to do all of them, they didn't even offer to attend.Once my property was sold I heard off Burchell once., They didn't do any chasing up I had to chase up everything, didn't email to see how it's going or why it's taking 6 months to complete all for the princely sum of £2700 I did have one phone call though 2 days before I was about to complete to ask me if I'm still looking for a property?? I mean come on what an absolute shower. Called me on day of completion asking when I'm dropping the keys in luckily my buyer and I had already discussed this and wrote burchells out of the equation.I honestly won't ever use a estate agents again and I'll advise everyone who moves to just use an online agent with low fees because you end up doing everything yourself.The sooner some tech whizkid comes along and designs something to wipe out estate agents and conveyancers the better because the whole system is an absolute abomination and costs so much money.

AFTERSALES TEAM IS HORRENDOUS!!! AVOID
All my dealings have been with the Tamworth branch and after a promising start I have been left INCREDIBLY disappointed. The start of the process, we dealt with Chris who is EXCEPTIONAL and quite frankly the ONLY reason we went with Burchell Edwards after getting 4 different agents in to value our property and quote for services. Chris is very professional & knowledgeable, nothing is too much trouble and he was fantastic when performing the viewings, hence the 1st star I have given. The second star is for John Wasim, the negotiator that agreed the sale with our buyers. Again very professional and polite and ALWAYS called me back with updates etc. Unfortunately, as soon as the sale was agreed, it has all gone drastically downhill and completely ruined any chance of me ever going with BE again!When Chris valued my house and quoted for services, part of the pitch is that there is a 5 strong team of after sales experts, who will oversee the sale and keep us updated/do all the chasing etc. It was for this reason that we were satisfied with paying what was actually the MOST EXPENSIVE agent fees out of all the quotes we received, because we believed that we would receive a service worthy of the increased cost, taking into account the whole after sale experience we were told to expect. Unfortunately, there has been NO AFTER SALE support whatsoever!!!!! I never heard a peep for around 3 weeks after I accepted our buyers offer, despite sending around 3 or 4 emails to the Tamworth office. I then received a really feeble excuse that their computer system had some sort of glitch, which caused the lack of reply - IMPOSSIBLE CONSIDERING I SENT MY EMAILS TO MULTIPLE EMAIL ADDRESSES AT THE BRANCH, including John's who had always received and replied promptly, prior to passing the file over to the after sales team. So this was clearly a lie. After that, I received NO proactive updates, no evidence that BE were chasing the solicitors or paying any attention AT ALL to my sale, so I was forced to keep chasing them to take action. I am not exaggerating when i say EVERY, SINGLE, EMAIL I HAVE SENT has been ignored, until I followed up with a snotty email complaining about the lack of response. Our buyers solicitors are being a nightmare and BE have done nothing to help me speed them up, instead they've made up silly excuses to allow their ineptitude to continue without challenge. It has now been around 15 weeks since we accepted our offer and BE have done NOTHING to expedite the sale. I will never, ever use them again and have requested details as to how I can make a formal complaint. I expected to receive a discount of 50% of my fee, considering I have only received 50% of the service I was promised!!!!!! My fee is £2400 in total, extortionate considering all that has paid for is a few photos, some 5/10 minute viewings and nothing else! so angry.

DERBY BRANCH MORTGAGE ADVISOR A.P WORST…
DERBY BRANCH MORTGAGE ADVISOR A.P WORST EXPERIENCE THE 1ST TIME WENT OK WASNT GREAT TRY TO MAKE YOU SIGN UP TO THINGS THAT ARE UNNECESSARY. Went to buy my 2nd home and because of the abizmel communication lost out on it 3x..... because of slow service not responding to emails and forever chasing them to do their job. never get a xall bsck when promised and then to add salt to injury she doesn't take accountability for her neglengence. NEVER WILL I USE HER AGAIN!!! I made it very clear that her service was appalling they claw money out of you to do very little work. I came on trust pilot to leave a negative review which she is aware of me doing so I don't think she'll be surprised hearing about this... only to be unsurprised by alot of other people's negative reviews. I had to ask if she's over worked because clearly can't keep the pace. made me lose out and still took my money to do very little. you mayaswell find a private mortgage advisor which I have done now and has suited me thus far...useless is an understatement..... try to blame you for their appointments theyve made and missed. she's lucky I never put her name on blast. but stear clear DERBY BRANCH INTIALS A.P

I spoke to Laura today and she was just…
I spoke to Laura today and she was just so lovely! She was very friendly, took time to explain things to me, it almost felt like someone I had known before! I've spoken to several lettings agents over the past 2 weeks as I've been seriously searching for a place to rent, but none has been this nice to me on first contact. Whether I get to rent with Burchell or not, I just want to say Laura is amazing. Thanks

As a first time buyer and having no knowledge of buying a house I could not recommend Burchell Edwards Eastwood! Lianne was fantastic, she knew exactly what I was looking for and did her best to get me my dream home, with the help from Lee as a Mortage broker they have taken all the stress out of the situation and helped with everything, I couldn’t be happier with my experience

Rude estate agent!
Honestly will never buy through these as I've been put off for life. I genuinely feel because I'm a first time buyer the estate agent felt that they could bully and push me into signing up to things I didn't need. All I wanted was a viewing on a property but was instead given basically life advice I didn't want or need. I had explained I already have a mortgage advisor and a mortgage in principle but was consistently pushed and bullied into signing up for their mortgage services. Came off the phone and instantly blocked their number because I was so upset and fuming at how rude I had been spoken to. Wouldn't buy a house from them now even if they paid me to.

Excellent Customer Service…
I started house hunting sometime in June 2020 and was so fortunate to be assigned Kelly at Castle Bromwich branch. From the very beginning she was so supportive, always letting me know when there were houses that met our budget and taste available and what won my heart was her tenacity and determination to find us our perfect home.She was so patient with my mom who was very picky on a budget and was always one call away, even updating me with information others wouldn't have bothered to. Also she always booked me in for viewings at my convenience, not once rescheduling or having excuses for all the times I requested.I have collected the keys to my new home which Kelly saw and knew was the right fit for my family. Every timeline she gave was accurate and she supported us through till the very end, which is today, when we got the keys to our new home!Thank you Kelly! Your effort is much appreciated and I will continually refer as many people as I can to Burchell Edwards due to the exceptional customer service you rendered towards our purchase!

Highly Recommend Burchell Edwards
I am about to complete on my first house this Friday and could not be any happier with the service i got through Liam Mann at their Eastwood, Notts office!Liam was recommended to me via a friend as they had just as good experience with him as i have. Right from the start he had a friendly attitude and helped work out what i could afford and what was best as i had a seen a house i really wanted to go for. Things didnt work out on that one but soon after i found the one i finally got.Liams ability to make the worst situations even slightly better was a massive thing for me, especially because its my first time and i am on my own. Little things go a long way and Liams work ethic and ability made all the difference, from giving me a call over confused emails to responding to me even when he was on annual leave!Every penny spent with Burchell Edwards is money well spent and i am 100% going to continue dealing with them on my future endeavours. I cannot stress enough how much everyone should use Burchell Edwards and more specifically Liam (where possible) as i cannot fault them one bit!
5/5
I would 100% recommend the Lettings team at Burchell Edwards. Bryani and Ella have helped me let my property successfully after two other agents failed to do so. Really genuine girls whose communication is fantastic, I will definitely be putting future business through these girls. Thank you both.
Many thanks Harriet for the great recommendation, 5* review and your kind words. Best wishes, Lucy, Customer Relations.

Anxiety and stress while selling a house. Selling a property is a challenge but…
Selling s property is a challenge but when you have a caring and helpful estate agent to guide you through the process, it lightens the load.Burchell Edwards, Eastwood Branch helped me through every step of the way. They were always friendly, sympathetic and there to answer any queries, and there were many. Thank you so much Lexie and your team for all your support. Very much appreciated. Maria

Mansfield Branch - 5*
The service provided by Lucy and team at the Mansfield branch has been superb from start to finish. I really have no complaints in the way they have dealt with our sale that spanned the 1st lockdown. Communication has been excellent with all viewings well communicated to me and feedback passed on very quickly. All offers received were confirmed verbally and in writing.Lucy and the team provide a good reliable, friendly service, communication within the branch is excellent, if Lucy was out of the office someone within the team always knew what was happening.Even when Conveyancing direct started failing on us the team worked tirelessly in the background to keep things moving, my review of Conveyancing direct will be posted shortly but in short use Burchell Edwards but not Conveyancing direct.
5/5
Ella and Bryani at Eastwood have been absolutely fantastic throughout the whole process of getting me moved into my new property. No task was too much and their customer service and knowledge was second to none. Thank you both so much- would definitely use you both again.
Thank you so much for your wonderful 5* review Katie! We're thrilled to hear that Ella and Bryani provided you with exceptional service and made your move a smooth experience. Your kind words are greatly appreciated, and we look forward to assisting you again in the future. Best regards, Lucy, Customer Relations Team

Great Mortgage advice from Burchell Edwards Eastwood
Amazing service as always from Lee Peck at Burchell Edwards Eastwood! We've used Lee as our mortgage advisor since we bought our first property 6 years ago, through 2 remortgages and now for our next purchase which exchanged contracts today. His knowledge and support has been invaluable and nothing is ever too much bother! A genuine asset to the company and will look forward to dealing with him again when our next remortgage is due.
5/5
Wonderful mortgage advisor. Anyone looking for a decent mortgage advisor, cannot fault Lee at Eastwood at all. Thoroughly nice chap, really helpful along the whole process, made a stressful time go with ease, nothing was a bother to him. Can't say this enough, but thank you again.
Many thanks for the great 5* review and your kind words Angela. Best wishes, Lucy, Customer Relations.

Excellent service again from Emily and…
Excellent service again from Emily and Tom. Very efficient and professional service, they are both very proactive with sourcing new tenants and keep me informed at all stages of the process. Always at the end of the telephone or will call me back if not available. Both Emily and Tom are very personable and approachable and I would not hesitate to use this service but especially Emily and Tom again,

We used Liam from Burchell Edwards to help with the process of buying our first home. We had spoken to other mortgage advisors but found things were explained in such a complicated way that me and my partner left feeling exhausted from all the confusing information explained to us. When we spoke to Liam, he could see we were first time buyers and found things complicated to understand. Liam explained everything and things made much more sense which really helped with the buying process. Liam found us a great mortgage with a really competitive rate compared to others. Even though the process of buying our house took much longer than we would have liked (this was not Liam or Burhcell Edwards fault), Liam would chase things up with other parties and did everything he could to make the process be as quick as possible. Thank you so much Liam! We’ve gained a friend as well as a highly recommended mortgage advisor. Chris and Jess

We went with this tin pot Company
We went with this tin pot Company, following on from a awful conveyancing experience online.However! Talk about out of the pot into the fire!!!Burchell Edwards at Eastwood proved to be absolutely DIRE!! They work with Talbots Law in Dudley (We have given them feefo...)We did not find out UNTIL the day before we were due to exchange contracts that even though at the beginning of the fiasco my husband had categorically stated that the contract with them was for BOTH the SALE AND the Purchase, Scarlett, the lead estate agent at the Office did the biggest mess up of her career (I am presuming there hasn't been any worst...!) and only put on the Contract for the sale!! Lexi, the Eastwood Manager agreed with my husband that she remembered him telling Scarlett that it was for a sale AND Purchase at the time.Mistakes happen all the time, it is simply human nature.What REALLY galls us though, is that this Estate Agency attempted to hide and dismiss what they had messed up.NO apology, literally just trying to sweep their mess up away altogether.To LEXI and SCARLETT, SHAME on you, you should be utterly disgusted with yourselves, but no doubt both you and Burchell Edwards will go into denial mode....unfortunately for you, we DO have ALL the relevant paperwork to take forward if we decide to do so.We urge ANYONE even thinking of using this Company to avoid like the plague...👿What I would like to know is, whay doesn't ANYBODY respond to the people on the reviews?? Burchell Edwards really should be shamed and vilified......
5/5
On 2 occasions in the past few years Burchell Edwards, particularly Lianne Ward-Turner, have been amazing. The first was in purchasing and arranging the mortgage for our new house and most recently arranging a new mortgage deal. Her knowledge is second to none which is only matched by her hunger to help customers through every stage of the process. We have been kept upto date on everything. She has been able to take a VERY stressful process and made it pretty much sail through. I have recommended both Burchell Edwards and Lianne to lots of friends and family. Thanks for all your help
5/5
We decided to sell our property and went back to Burchell Edwards as we had had a good previous experience with them when we purchased our first property 10 years ago. We joked with Adam and David about selling our property within a week and how we would like to be moving into our new property the following week. The "for sale "board went up Tuesday after the photos were taken and it was sold by Friday!! This was thanks to them and their expert knowledge in knowing who was looking for what property on the market at that time. The team at Eastwood were not only friendly, funny and easy to talk to, they put you at ease instantly and they are all very professional and knowledgeable in their field. The girls in the office answered any questions we had and helped with any paperwork that we were struggling to fill out and even sent it off for us to the solicitors when needed. We also used their mortgage broker Lianne and words cannot describe how helpful and brilliant she has been. We had had previous quotes on mortgages and were very unhappy and left feeling like we were not going to be able to move, but after speaking with Lianne she suddenly gave us so many more options and we are now in the final stages of purchasing our new home. I cannot thank the team enough for their help and they have made the whole moving experience easy, stress free and almost enjoyable! (if that's at all possible when moving house?!) Thanks team for all your help and advice long the way.

Landlord says you don't need boiler
We were told if we wanted to rent we had to move in within 4 days, we were not allowed to give any notice for the property we are currently in. So we had to take the keys on a monday evening, then couldn't actually see the property until the weekend. The boiler doesn't work, the ceiling in the kitchen is so damp it has fallen through, the kitchen units are damp, the only electrics are the lights and shower, the cooker is unusable. Both Burchell and the landlord have said we don't require a boiler and we don't require electrics to move in, in October. One comment we thought was rather exceptional was "if it was your house you would still have to pay the mortgage, so you still need to pay the rent, even if you can't live there". I've rented for 22 years up and down the country, Burchell Edwards is by far and away the worst experience i have had.
