TrustpilotA Most Rewarding Experience.....
Beresford staff were cheerful, friendly and professional from the moment we walked into the local branch. Subsequent communication face-to-face, by email or on the phone was excellent.They provided us with a valuable range of properties and were positive and efficient in arranging viewings.On finding a property we liked the client was contacted and the sale agreed within 45 minutes, and the required admin was dealt with efficiently.The whole experience was positive and successful, and Saffron and Rob were particularly helpful.

TrustpilotTenant and a landlord…
I have been a tenant and a landlord through Beresfords over the past 20 plus years. I live outside of the UK now and Beresfords fully manage my property. They are very responsive and the staff I have dealt with are keen to provide a good service to both tenant and landlord. It´s a great piece of mind to leave the property in trusted hands.

TrustpilotWell done Beresfords and Alice
What made the experience great was the continuous feedback we got from Alice keeping us up to date on the progress .She was always available and willing to assist. I also liked that everything could be done online ,and there was no travelling up and down. She also made a great effort to accommodate and put measures in place for us to have our dog there. Well done from her side.

TrustpilotSwift and efficient maintenance process/personnel
I moved into a rental flat and encountered a few issues soon after. I contacted the maintenance team and Krystal Boyde-Maynard swiftly responded to my several maintenance requests. She was very polite, informative and kept me updated. She handled communication with the landlord and coordinated with the contractors to carry out the repairs. Legend. Kudos to her. Keep up the excellent customer service

TrustpilotExploitative practices for tenants
Took over a month to return my tenancy deposit. The communication about it was really bad - they went completely silent after I checked out, I had to send lots of emails to chase and some of them were ignored. They couldn’t give me timings for when it would happen. I had to open a dispute with the deposit protection service just because there was no end in sight. There was no apology for the delay. This was very clearly business as usual for them.This wasn’t because there was a dispute about deductions. It was just radio silence. In the end they didn’t even want to make any deductions. It’s a shame to have to leave this review. During the tenancy I thought they were quite good. They were responsive and happy to deal with maintenance issues. They did try to inspect the property during a national lockdown, which I thought was a bad & unethical decision on their part, but they were at least happy to cancel it for our property on request.However, I think leaving a 1 star review just based on the deposit is completely justified. They need to understand is that keeping a large sum of peoples’ money for so much longer than the government’s mandated 10 days is completely unacceptable. They tried to blame the landlord’s lack of responsiveness. That is not a reasonable excuse. They are holding the money, and they are working on the landlord’s behalf. I feel extremely strongly that this sort of treatment of tenants needs to improve.

GoogleHelen & Jane were very helpful with our purchase in Stock, we were buying from very difficult vendors, who were certainly not forth coming with some legal information that we were requesting about our new home. However, the girls at Beresfords worked their magic enabling us to move in right on top of Christmas. I realise now that an Estate Agents job is not just selling a property, you need that people skill and negotiation skill to help both buyers and Vendors, and they have have certainly got that. Even when we moved in Helen was their to help us. (This was a very big move for us, we moved from the east end of London and wanted to be somewhere semi rural with a community feel) so Thank you for being at the end of the phone girls Eve, Grey & Billy the doggie
