We had great experiences with all agents we encountered at miles and Barr throughout our search for a home. When we put an offer on the home of our dreams they were very easy to deal with. Louise our negotiating agent was brilliant from accepting the offer to exchange. She was fully transparent through the process and was on hand for all our questions. Simply wonderful.Would also like to mention Finn and Joe who showed us around houses, they were great to deal with, great service and didn't try and pressure us on any houses.

Just had a valuation (for my own purposes - not because of thinking of selling currently) by Adam Mansfield from Whitstable Miles and Barr Office. He was very helpful and polite. Came on time and seemed to be very happy to give a valuation, even knowing there was not going to be any business at the end of it.

Thank you for your support and respect.

Thank you for keeping us updated with everything that has been going on with the sale. .Thank to the whole team. As I explained to Louise we were not just selling a house. We were selling the beautiful home of our dearly beloved mother. And we fell you treated us with support and respect. This had been a very emotional time for us all this home had such wonderful memories attached to it and was difficult to say good bye to . Thanks again. yours sincerely Andrew Turnidge.

A long process but not Miles and Barr fault

Buying my property was a long process. Not the estate agents fault. However, Becky white kept me informed throughout the whole process. She gave me advice when she thought I needed to contact the solicitor and had a calm way about her that made you chill when is said it was all progressing nicely.

Friendly valuer

I had Harry come out from the Canterbury branch to value my property who was very friendly and polite and clearly knows his stuff. Made for a very positive experience and would be happy to use Miles & Barr in the future.

On moving day communication was very poor which resulted in me paying additional costs to removal men as the store closed 3-6pm I was not told this was the case when calling for updates regarding collecting keys to new property . The last call i had made was at 2.40pm nobody mentioned that nobody would be available after 3pm due to training I made numerous calls to try find out what was happening Miles & Barr failed to come back to me until 4.45pm. very frustrating and distressingNegativeResponsiveness

This firm are the most inept, unprofessional and borderline dishonest agents I have encountered. Don't even bother trying to call them before 1030 as their lengthy morning meetings mean the phone is answered by 'head office', who NEVER pass on a message for a call back. If you call another branch, they are just as incapable of passing on a message. After accepting an offer on a property they were marketing, they did tant amount to nothing to support the process. 3 months pass of us chasing for updates, to be told the sellers are still 'actively looking'. Eventually we were told our sellers had themselves finally found a property and had an offer accepted. Delighted, we instructed surveyors and solicitors. This was soon to be found to be a complete falacy, and explained away as a 'miscommunication'. Complete waste of time and our money. Another 4 months pass without any communication unless we chased them, and no movement at all on the sale at all. Now I'm not suggesting the search for a house is their responsibility, but being kept completely in the dark was deeply frustrating, and only compounded what is already an extremely stressful process. Needless to say we decided to look elsewhere and give up our purchase. I'm pleased to report THESE new agents have been fantastic and could show Miles & Barr how it SHOULD be done. I suspect Miles and Barr are a victim of their own success, have grown too big for their own boots, and have lost sight of what good customer service means.NegativeResponsiveness

I've been looking for a property for a while now and considered Whitstable for a while- and had the honour of Ricky showing me some properties. He knows his way around a base and blew me away with some of his insights on the properties. I was shown 3 or 4 different locations, all completely different- yet he knew them all well. Similar to another review, Sam aided me with mortgage advice which I found to be very useful and am thankful for that.PositiveProfessionalism

Since I started looking for a house in Whitstable, Miles and Barr have gone out of their way to find me the ideal property. I met Ricky on several viewings and he was always very knowledgeable and accommodating. I did however end up finding a property through another agent, who unfortunately haven’t been as on the ball. I did manage to use Sam from miles and Barr for my mortgage as he found me the best deal considering the pandemic.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism
