GoogleSureLet are fantastic Letting Agents. They cooperated with us and helped us to move in on a day that suited us. They communicated with the Landlord quickly and efficiently and responded to us with every query we had. Their fees are competitive and the staff are all friendly and happy to help each time we have needed to contact. SureLet are also quick to deal with any issues we have had in the property and they were resolved with ease. Special thanks to Kash, Claire and Rose who have all been more than helpful to us in our move and tenancy so far.

GoogleI've been lucky enough to interact with a few people from Sure during my first rental and I'm thrilled with the level of service I've received from each of them. Charlotte was absolutely lovely when showing me my property and helping me through the initial stages, Mitch was wonderful with answering questions and helping me through the application process, and finally was James who, as others have mentioned, has excellently helped me wrap everything up in this overall fantastic and exciting experience. Thanks very much to those at Sure! Highly recommended.

FacebookWe have just bought a house through Sophie Marcer at Sure in Burton on Trent and everything about the experience was fantastic.
We would highly recommend Sure to friends and family, especially if they could work with Sophie. Despite technically not being our agent, she helped us so much more than anybody else did throughout the entire process. She really wanted the best for everybody and for everything to run as smoothly as possible.
Sophie was fantastic to work with, always friendly, professional and exceedingly efficient.
Thanks Sophie!

FacebookI don't know how Mickey does it, but we got two chain free offers within one week of going on the market! (which we were willing to accept and accepted the higher otf the two and that same house was on the market for months before we bought it a year earlier - same house but definitely not the same agent). Faboulous dedication to getting a buyer and Mickey kept herself easily contactable and approachable which must have made a lot of difference (Andrew did a great job with the photos). They don't muck about! We have just about settled into our new place.

Thank you so much for helping us move smoothly into a home we can call our own ??

GoogleThis review has 5 stars only because of James.
We had been renting from Surelet for over 3 years and had a lot of issues,slow responses, staff didnt seem concerned and any repairs we reported would take forever to be actioned. However since James joined the service has been great and he has always been quick to respond,even outside of working hours. James has fantastic customer services skills and made us feel looked after.
Thank you James π

FacebookAfter finally settling in to our new home me and Chloe would like to thank Mitchell from the very beginning you have been very professional and never once pushed us to buy anything you even took the time to talk to us while on the viewing and not just stand in the corner like all the other company's did....and a very massive thank you to Rosina you have been nothing but polite and professional from the very beginning from early morning phone calls to very last minute emails never once did you let us down or never responded to an email or phone call and even went the extra mile to help us out when our solicitor couldn't be bothered I hope your bosses know they have an extremely good employee within your company

FacebookRecently I needed find property to rent quickly, I called into Sure Let Burton and spoke to Charley, Mickey and Mitch, they found me a property that seemed ok. However the next day I received a email regarding a new property that had come on the books that was amazing and I acted that day and within the day I secured the property. The team at Burton is very friendly and were excellent to deal with and exceptionally efficient. I cant thank them enough for a very pleasant experience.

GoogleWe had a slow start with this company. Things agreed upon before moving in were not done. How much was down to the company and how much down to the landlord I am not sure. However, our new contact James has been a breath of fresh air. Always courteous, professional and sorts issues quickly. His attitude makes me feel like a valued customer, which in my experience is not the norm for tenants in this industry.

GoogleI made the terrible mistake of leaving Surelet in Burton On Trent to manage my property whilst I was living abroad. (I managed the property and tenants myself quite successfully for 7 years before giving it to them. The tenant had been in the house for 4 years). To cut a very long story short after only 5 months of Surelet 'managing' my property they allowed the tenant to get 3 months behind in rent arrears, allowed 3 more people to move in without putting them on the agreement, let the tenants 'rearrange' the garden .i.e put up chicken sheds which ruined the lawn, didn't check the house properly, and kept trying to side with the tenant and make excuses as to why the tenant should stay even though she was getting further into debt.
In the end, from 10,000 miles away, I took the matter into my own hands and filed for eviction. Surelet even tried to mess that up but luckily I had taken steps to ensure the legal team were calling me and not them.
The tenant finally left and to my horror I was presented with a break down of damages 'the angry' boyfriend had created. Something to the effect of approx 4,000 GBP. I was only given 1 quote and told that all the other quotes were much higher so better to go with that one. I had to wait 1 month before work could start and then I had to transfer the money into Surelet's account before any work could start. The work seemed to be taking a long time and the prices given for the work to be done seemed very high.
Based on my suspicions, I decided to fly home and make a 'surprise visit' to my house to see what was going on (I didn't inform Surelet). The builder wasn't there and when I looked around the damages stated didn't seem half as bad as what I was quoted for and the work carried out looked like an amateur has done it. When I called Surelet to ask what was going on Andy the Manager in a very sheepish voice told me the builder Ian was doing another job, even though before I agreed on the work I specified that if I pay all the money up front then the work will be done in one go.
After the builder has left there was still so much work that needed to be done and jobs on the quote hadn't been carried out. Surelet never checked the work and it turned out that Ian used to work for Andy the manager at Surelet so they were pals. Andy's property maintenance business went bust so that's how he came to work at Surelet. To be honest it didn't surprise me to hear that.
After paying all that money to get the house ready to rent (new carpets, whole place decorated etc..., ) Surelet kept presenting me with inappropriate tenants for the property, i.e. tenants with 2 dogs, tenants who had already been evicted from other properties so had no guarantors). I sacked Surelet and found another agent in the end but to my disgust and typical shoddy behaviour of a rubbish agent, the Manager Andy tried to demand money from me! Yes, from me who had been paying an agent to manage a property and which same agent had cost me around 7,000GBP in rent loss and damages.
AVOID this agent!!!! There are 100's of other agents all with great reviews...don't fall into the mistake I made. Run the the hills when you see the name SureLet!!!!!

FacebookThank you to Sophie Barley and Mitch. Our move didn't quite go to plan due to building work being delayed on the house we were moving in to. Sophie was always in communication and keeping us up to date on everything. She tried everything she could to hurry things along but these things can't be helped. They are all very friendly, helpful and professional and I would certainly recommend to anyone in need of a sales/lettings agent.
