Great and reliable estate agent you could trust

Great, reliable estate agent. Managing my property for let with care and attention to detail. Frequent periodical property check and taking care of regulation compliance really free my mind. Thank you all of you: Tracey, Kate, Tessa, Leanne, Alex and Dominic! You are the best!Thomas of Shrub End

I have received multiple phishing emails pretending to be Beresford's lettings. Clearly they have had their systems accessed and therefore all email addresses have been stolen. I have raised this with no reply. If you have ever given them your details it's highly likely they're no longer safe. edit - I first reported this in on the 1st October 2018 at 13:09 to which I received no reply

Mark · 14 June 2019

Agent replied · 12 June 2024

Mark Huggins I was very disappointed to read your recent comments on Google, which suggested that records of all our clients could have been compromised so I wanted to respond to you personally. Can I assure you, and all our other customers, both past and present that this is simply not the case. In my view it’s actually a very serious accusation you have made without any real foundation. Very often the ‘phishing’ emails derive from hackers targeting personal home computers, which retain limited anti-virus software and not PC’s within businesses which generally have a higher level of security built in. Hackers will then use a particular email address held within a PC, recreate it and dispatch emails pertaining to be from the specific person or company to which the original email belonged. Rest assured we have removed your details from all our email platforms and it may be sensible to remove our details from your own devices, so any emails you may receive in the future pertaining to be from Beresfords would definitely not have been sent to you from within our business. In the meantime, it may be worth you reviewing the level of security retained on your own devices as this could well be where the problem derived from. For the record you reported your concerns to us on the 22nd February and we responded back within 48 hours. This included some useful security advice, an explanation as to how phishing emails occur and what individuals can do to protect themselves against them. I’m sorry that you have experienced these problems, which unfortunately are now quite common but hope my response has reassured you that Beresfords go to great lengths to ensure our clients data remains secure. However unfortunately, we cannot be held responsible for any unscrupulous activity which may occur on a client’s personal devices. Steven Bond Managing Director Residential Lettings

Deposit help

Very swift, concise and straightforward help from Hannah. After summarising a situation with a long history, my deposit was sorted almost immediately with her help.

Shocking, spent an hour driving around trying to find the property - no instruction from agent. Phone calls promised, never returned. Borderline moronic office staff with the customer service skills of a turnip. 'My fault' I couldn't find the property that their own agent could also not locate. Such a shame I wanted to rent a property then sell my own through Beresfords...lost this customer.

Catherine · 13 June 2020

Agent replied · 12 June 2024

Catherine Having read the contents of your recent review I am sorry that you felt the attitude and approach of our staff was unacceptable and I have subsequently spoken to members of the team concerned. However to suggest that we provided no instructions regarding the location of the property you had arranged to view is in my view somewhat harsh. Whenever a viewing is arranged we always confirm this back by email in advance to the clients concerned. Also included is the full address and post code along with a Google map showing the location of the property concerned. In your particular case this was sent to you on the 3rd December at 12.47, three days before you were due to view. In almost every case this information proves sufficient for customers as they tend to locate the relevant property concerned via satellite navigation systems either on their mobile telephones or in a vehicle. In isolated cases where this proves an issue, our staff will always do their very best to try and assist. Of course it’s in our own interest and that of the landlords to make sure prospective tenants get to view the properties concerned. I’m sorry that on this occasion our performance failed to meet your expectations and I wish you every success in your search for a suitable property. Steven Bond Managing Director, Residential Lettings

Couldn't expect a better service from Thomas. Had all the time to look into my case. All the team was very courteous at all times, but I will definitely come back to Beresfords because of him. A very fine acquisition to any sales team.

This company is completely hopeless. They have been sending me messages for over half a year regarding the property in which I no longer live. I'm regularly receiving information about the personal information of people who live there now. At my request to stop sending me messages, I was completely ignored. No professionalism whatsoever and no respect for my rights.

Maciek · 13 June 2021

Agent replied · 12 June 2024

Hi Maciek C We are sorry to hear of your complaint, but would kindly ask if you could provide a little more information about yourself and the property you are referring to, as we cannot locate a recent file for you. If you can provide us with some more detail this will enable us to get the source of the problem and rectify it accordingly. We look forward to hearing from you.

Agent replied · 19 June 2024

Hi Raul,I was sorry to read your comments which state that one of our letting branches are not replying to your emails. This is highly unusual and furthermore, in any correspondence that we send to you our contact details not only include an email address, but also a telephone number. Nonetheless, I want to make sure that the correct branch replies back to you, but unfortunately within your review you did not state which one of our branches you were dealing with. Please email me directly: sb@beresfords.co.uk and I will make sure that a team member from the relevant branch makes contact with you straight away. I am sorry that you have experienced these issues, but hope that we can now resolve this situation for you.Steven BondManaging Director - Residential Lettings
