I have been a tenant for just under a year in a property CM Rent & Sales manage and have had no problems. Whenever I have needed to contact the office no matter who I have spoken to has always been very cheerful and helpful. Making the process of moving a lot less stressful dealing with a letting agent so Helpful. I would highly recommend CM Rent & Sales!

Top notch in my book. Friendly. Informative. Extremely helpful at all times. Good communications and do what they say. Faultless and really the best service I have ever had from a letting agent anywhere. They go the extra mile and genuinely seem to care about you as a tenant. Cannot rate them highly enough and would recommend them whether you are a landlord or a tenant.
Thank you Mike for your 5* review. Kind regards, Mike.

I have been with CM Rent for a few years now both when selling and renting property. They are highly efficient and, most importantly to me, very friendly. They have found me excellent tenants almost as soon as they have taken on the property and I couldn't be more pleased.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

cmRent & SALES have provided a professional and friendly service throughout our tenancy and have been really helpful in getting any problems with the property (heating etc) sorted out in a quick and efficient way. Property inspections are quick and hassle free and on time. They always ask if you have any issues that you would like highlighted and deal with them well. Recommended.
Hi, Stuart Thank you for leaving those kind words. We always strive to provide the highest level of customer service and it sounds like that is exactly what we have done for you! Kind regards, Chris

We have been a tenant in a property managed by cmRENT & SALES for just under a year and would not hesitate to renew our contract or find another property though them due to a high level of service we have received. The office team are always friendly and helpful whenever you call in and help you to resolve any issues quickly and efficiently.
Hi Sophie Thank you for leaving this review. I'm delighted to hear that you have received such an excellent service from the team. It's great that you have renewed your contract and I wish you all the best going forward. Kind regards, Chris

As a landlord, I've worked closely with cmRent for nearly 10 years and they're a true pleasure to work with. They're professional and efficient and I'd highly recommend them with any letting requirements. Helen and Daniel are delightful and I'm so pleased I didn't chose an altertive agency :-)
Thank you for your amazing 5* review and kind words of our dedicated team. It is great to see that you would recommend them. Kind regards, Lucy, Customer Relations.

Had a very tight timeframe to get moved into my new flat by - Sophie was extremely helpful, friendly, and quick. Really appreciate that a lot of communication is done by email, as a lot of other estate agents pester you with phone calls.

Nonexistent communication, zero sense or organisation, and an attempt to let a property to us that was legally uninhabitable with nonfunctional toilets, and pain scraping off in the kitchen, amongst a barrage of other issues that we had to …
Thank you for taking the time to leave this feedback, we take all comments seriously and this has been passed on to the Regional Manager to discuss with the branch to see how they can improve for the future. If you would like to go through … More

Extremely professional and knowledgeable on all aspects of the property market. They looked after my property in Chelmsford for several years and they were faultless. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to any person, looking to either let a property, or rent one, that they have on their books.
Thank you for your thoughtful 5* review and recommendation! I will make sure your kind words are passed on to the local team. Best wishes, Lucy, Customer Relations.

We have been with CMRent for four years now and dealing with Chris Melling is a pleasure. He returns my calls/ emails quickly and endeavours to get our requests to our landlord smoothly sorted out. My only request is that the renewal fees could be cheaper!
5/5
Great service from Emily and Sophie throughout the first property I have rented. Being new to the letting industry I didn’t have a clue how it worked or what I was doing. Throughout the build up, even through lockdown, both helped me and cured my worry. Thank you so much for all the help!
Thank you for your glowing 5* review. Kind regards, Lucy, Customer Relations.
